About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Monitoring of Aspirin Responsiveness in the Prevention of Cardiovascular Events and Decrease in Bleeding Complications in Patients With End-Stage Kidney Disease Undergoing Hemodialysis

The study is prospectively initiated to: (1) evaluate the alterations in platelet function to aspirin therapy and the prevalence of aspirin resistance in patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis, and (2) compare the incidence of vascular events (myocardial infarction, cardiac death, stroke, vascular access thrombosis, or revascularization procedure) and the safety profile among placebo-treated, aspirin-resistant and aspirin-sensitive patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing aspirin in people with End-Stage Renal Disease, run by Taipei Tzu Chi Hospital, Buddhist Tzu Chi Medical Foundation at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 1 inclusion and 6 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jan 2019. 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 Taiwan. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.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?

the prevalence of aspirin resistance (time frame: 3 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01198379, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 17 Jan 2019.
