About this study

A prospective, randomized, open-label, stratified, controlled clinical trial to evaluate whether long term furosemide therapy (1 year) would preserve urine volume and/or residual renal function (RRF) and improve fluid state in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients.

Read the detailed description

There are 3 phases in this study. Phase 1 is screening phase. Each subject will be evaluated to determine if he/she is eligible for the study. Phase 2 is the intervention phage. Patients are divided arbitrarily into two groups according to baseline RRF (residual glomerular filtration rate [rGFR] <5or > 5 ml/min), then randomly received 12 months treatment with the study drugs( furosemide 120mg daily, 60mg daily, or no diuretic). Phase 3 is following-up phase, which lasts 1 year. Dialytic prescription is adjusted independent of the study and is guided by clinical parameters and calculated clearances (target creatinine clearance 65L/week, urea clearance Kt/V > 1.7 per week). Blood pressure is measured using an automated blood pressure device, and the target level is 135/85mmHg. The antihypertensive medication is introduced after the body weigh reduced into target level, and the ACEI and /or ARB selection is needed to the cross-sectional design. The hydration state is measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing furosemide in people with Renal Function Disorder, run by Sun Yat-sen University 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 5 inclusion and 11 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 May 2015. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Residual renal function and urine volume (time frame: Every 3 months). 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 21 May 2015.
