About this study

Official title: Effect of Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitor, Lisinopril, on Renal Blood Flow and Its Correlation With Proteinuria Reduction in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes and Kidney Disease (KXK005).

The purpose of the study is to investigate the effect of a blood pressure medication, Lisinopril, or similar drugs in that class, on the flow of blood to the kidneys. In this study, we will compare blood flow to the kidneys in healthy people that do not have diabetes or kidney disease with people that have diabetes and evidence of kidney disease.

Read the detailed description

Blockers of renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) are considered the standard of care in treatment of diabetic nephropathy. Their effects are thought to be through multiple mechanisms, including reducing intraglomerular pressure. However, due to the lack of a sensitive, practical and noninvasive method of monitoring renal hemodynamics, the magnitude of hemodynamic effects of these agents and its contribution to proteinuria reduction has not been studied in humans. At the same time, it is not clear if treatment with blockers of the RAAS have similar renal hemodynamic effects in individuals with and without diabetes and kidney disease.

Up to 36 subjects with type 2 diabetes and more than 150 mg of proteinuria who are on stable doses of ACE inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) and up to 18 healthy volunteers will be enrolled in this study. Subjects with type 2 diabetes will be asked to stop their ACE inhibitor or ARB medications for 10 days. Between 7 to 10 days after stopping these medications renal blood flow (RBF) will be measured using contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEU) and urine protein will be measured as well for comparison to baseline. Subjects' ACE inhibitors or ARB will be restarted and RBF measurement using CEU and measurement of urine protein excretion will be repeated after 7 days. For comparison, RBF will be measured by CEU in up to 18 healthy volunteers. They will then be started on Lisinopril 10 mg orally once a day for 7 days. On day 7 RBF measurement will be repeated to assess the effect of ACE inhibitors on RBF in healthy individuals as compared to those with diabetic nephropathy.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ACEI or ARBDrug

    Subjects will be asked to discontinue their usual ACE inhibitor or Angiotensin Receptor Blocker (ARB) for ten days, undergo a CEU using Definity (for renal blood flow assessment) as the contrast agent, then resume their usual ACEI or ARB for ten days, then undergo another CEU using Definity as the contrast agent.

  • LisinoprilDrug

    Subjects will be undergo a CEU using Definity (for renal blood flow assessment) as the contrast agent, then take Lisinopril 10 mg every day for 7 days, after which they will undergo another CEU using Definity as the contrast agent.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in renal blood flow (RBF)

    We will use Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound using Definity as the contrast agent to monitor changes in renal blood flow (RBF).

    Measured: Study day 10

  2. Change in renal blood flow (RBF)

    Measured: Compared to Study Day 17

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change in Proteinuria

    Measured: Study day 10

  2. Change in Proteinuria

    Measured: Compared to study day 17

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ACEI or ARB and Lisinopril in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by University of Virginia at 1 site in United States.

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 16 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 12 May 2017. 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 United States. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Slow Recruitment). 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?

Change in renal blood flow (RBF) (time frame: Study day 10). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 12 May 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
