Trial summary

Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an important model of renal replacement therapy for end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. Thus far, evidence for the initiation dosage of PD treatment is lacking, most patients begin their PD with four 2 L exchanges per day. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effect of Different Dialysis Dosage on Prognosis in Maintenance Peritoneal Dialysis Patients - A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled, Multi-center Clinical Study

Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an important model of renal replacement therapy for end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. Thus far, evidence for the initiation dosage of PD treatment is lacking, most patients begin their PD with four 2 L exchanges per day. However, many patients have their residual renal function at the initiation of PD, an 8 L dialysate per day will enhance the toxicity of bioincompatible dialysate and increase the economic burden compared with that of 6 L dialysate per day. Thus, the investigators perform a prospective, randomized, controlled, multi-center clinical study. The patients initiation of PD treatment within 6 months are randomized to be assigned to two groups: 6 L of dialysate per day and 8 L of dialysate per day, follow up will be regularly performed until 96 weeks. Clinical outcomes such as mortality, complications and life quality between the two groups will be investigated.

Read the detailed description

To investigate the effect, feasibility and safety of 6L of dialysate per day after initiation of peritoneal dialysis (PD), we perform a prospective, randomized, controlled, multi-center clinical study. The patients initiation of PD treatment within 6 months are randomized to be assigned to two groups: 6L of dialysate per day and 8L of dialysate per day, follow up will be regularly performed at baseline, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 36 weeks, 48 weeks, 60 weeks, 72 weeks, 84 weeks and 96 weeks. Serum biochemical parameters, Kt/V, residual renal function (RRF), life quality and cardiovascular test will be regularly recorded. Clinical outcomes such as mortality, technique failure, complications and life quality between the two groups will be investigated.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing 6 L dialysate and 8 L dialysate in people with End-stage Renal Disease, run by Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine at 1 site in China.

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 8 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Oct 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

clinical outcome including mortality and technical failure (time frame: 2 years). 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 13 Oct 2016.
