Trial summary

The goal of this study is to examine the relevance of insulin resistance in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients as well as the means to improve this metabolic derangement. We will do so through a prospective randomized study using Icodextrin as an alternate dialysate solution to routine glucose-based dialysate. Read more about this study

About this study

The goal of this study is to examine the relevance of insulin resistance in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients as well as the means to improve this metabolic derangement. We will do so through a prospective randomized study using Icodextrin as an alternate dialysate solution to routine glucose-based dialysate. We hypothesize that (1) the glucose loading associated with PD leads to impairment in insulin sensitivity, (2) the degree of insulin resistance is dependent on the basal metabolic state (fasting versus stimulated), and (3) the replacement of conventional dialysate with glucose-sparing dialysate preparations will improve insulin resistance and associated metabolic disturbances in PD patients.

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

  1. improvement in glucose disposal rate

    Measured: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. the Pearson or Spearman correlation coefficient values between insulin resistance (IR) measured by insulin clamp study and other methods (e.g., HOMA, QUICKI, OGTT)

    Measured: 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Icodextrin dialysate in people with End Stage Renal Disease, run by Vanderbilt University 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 4 inclusion and 12 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 26 Sep 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 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 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?

improvement in glucose disposal rate (time frame: 12 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 26 Sep 2016; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
