About this study

Official title: Randomized, Multicenter Cross-over Study in Investigating the Effect of Bicarbonate-based Solutions (Physioneal 35 vs. 40) on Protein Metabolism in Children and Adolescents on Chronic Peritoneal Dialysis

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate an increase in protein metabolism during treatment with Physioneal 35® (containing lactate 10 mmol/l, calcium 1.75 mmol/l) compared to treatment with Physioneal 40® (containing lactate 15 mmol/l, calcium 1.25 mmol/l) in children and adolescents with end stage renal failure receiving peritoneal dialysis.

Read the detailed description
  • Fat oxidation (13C-enrichment in expiration breath samples for U-C13-algae turnover)
  • Growth markers (plasma levels of IgF-1, IgF-BP3, leptin)
  • Biochemical markers of anabolism (plasma levels of total protein, albumin, transferrin)
  • Serum thyroid function (fT3, fT4, TSH)
  • Serum lipid status
  • Serum markers of calcium/phosphate metabolism (PTH, calcium, ionized calcium, phosphate, alkaline phosphatase)
  • Prevalence of metabolic acidosis/ alkalosis (venous sample), serum lactate
  • Safety parameters (such as normalized weekly Kt/v, parameters of glucose metabolism, parameters of hepatic function, parameters of calcium-phosphate-metabolism, physical examination incl. standing height, weight, assessment of complications related to peritoneal dialysis as peritonitis, exit infections and inguinal hernia)
  • Body composition (lean body mass and body fat mass/fluid)
Being tested
Physioneal 35, Physioneal 40

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Physioneal 35 and Physioneal 40 in people with Endstage Renal Disease, run by University of Erlangen-Nürnberg Medical School at 5 sites in Germany.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 15 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Jun 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: al study sites stoped on 15/05/2012 because of insufficient recrutement.). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To demonstrate an increase in protein metabolism during treatment with Physioneal 35® compared to treatment with Physioneal 40® in children and adolescents with end stage renal failure receiving peritoneal dialysis. (time frame: 16 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Jun 2015.
