About this study

Official title: Clinical Study Investigating the Performance and Compatibility Characteristics of the Baxter Hollow Fiber Dialyzer Xenium XPH 210 During On-line Hemodiafiltration

The proposed study seeks to determine the appropriate balance between the removal of undesirable small molecular substances (urea, creatinine, phosphate) and large molecular substances (ß2-m) and the retention of important substances (e.g.albumin) for the Baxter Xenium XPH dialyzer type under defined therapeutic conditions of olHDF primarily concerning filtration flow rates in relation to blood flow/plasma water flow rates. Furthermore the possibility of the removal of certain protein-bound substances shall be investigated together with the impact of increasing ultrafiltration on the parameters of the micro-inflammation.

Read the detailed description

The new high flux dialyser membrane Xenium XPH 210 from Baxter will show an considerably increased removal of ß2-Microglobulin with olHDF in post dilution mode together with a markedly increased removal of small molecules (urea, creatinine, phosphate). The loss of albumin will depend on the treatment modalities. However, the albumin permeability is tolerable over the whole range of total filtration rate selected and applied to the patients.

Together with the albumin loss into the filtrate/dialysate a small amount of albuminbound substances is detectable.

Parameters of micro-inflammation can be influenced by an increasing convective part of the treatment.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Concentration of urea, creatinine, phosphate and ß2-m (pre/post treatment in blood), concentration of albumin (pre/post treatment in blood and dialysate), hematocrit pre/post treatment (for correction of the impact of ultrafiltration on concentrations)

    Measured: 3 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Pre and post treatment: CMPF (metabolite of furan fatty acids), p-cresol, albumin binding capacity (ABIC) in blood and dialysate, pre and post treatment: IL-6, IL-1ß, sVCAM-1, sICAM-1, CD14+/CD16+, CD62L+, CD11b+ in blood

    Measured: 3 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Dialyzer Baxter Xenium XPH 210 in people with End Stage Kidney Disease, run by Praxisverbund Dialyse und Apherese at 1 site 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 8 inclusion and 9 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 15 Sep 2009. 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 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.

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?

Concentration of urea, creatinine, phosphate and ß2-m (pre/post treatment in blood), concentration of albumin (pre/post treatment in blood and dialysate), hematocrit pre/post treatment (for correction of the impact of ultrafiltration on concentrations) (time frame: 3 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 15 Sep 2009.
