About this study

Official title: Investigation on the Middle Size Molecule Elimination Characteristics of the FX CorDiax 60 in Relation to the FX 60-Dialyzer

Study design: Open, randomized, cross-over, monocentric, controlled, prospective Applied Medical Devices: FX CorDiax 60 (high-flux), FX 60 (high-flux) Patients: 30 adult chronic hemodialysis patients Treatment: Each patient will be treated by post-dilution online hemodiafiltration once with each dialyzer type.

Study objectives: Intraindividual comparison of removal rate of urea, phosphate, ß2-microglobulin (ß2-m), myoglobin, prolactin, alpha1-microglobulin and alpha1-acidglycoprotein and of the albumin loss with different dialyzer membranes during post-dilution online hemodiafiltration.

Primary variable: Removal rate of myoglobin Secondary variable: Removal rate of urea, phosphate, ß2-microglobulin (ß2-m), prolactin, alpha1-microglobulin and alpha1-acidglycoprotein Safety variable: Hematocrit, albumin loss Sample Size: 30 subjects

What participants receive

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

  • dialyzer comparisonOther

    Each patient will be treated by post-dilution online hemodiafiltration once with each dialyzer type (FX CorDiax 60or FX 60 ) The order of dialyzers used will be randomly assigned to the patient at the time of randomisation by lot. Every subject will be treated one time with each dialyzer. In order to achieve controlled conditions, the mid- or end-week session data will be used, only.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing dialyzer comparison and Dialyzer in people with Hemodialysis, run by Hospital Clinic of Barcelona at 1 site in Spain.

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 8 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 9 Apr 2014. 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 Spain. 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 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 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?

Removal rate of myoglobin (time frame: 2 weeks). 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 NCT01534741, 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 9 Apr 2014.
