About this study

The purpose of this study was to explore the impacts of different continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) dosage (three 2-Liter exchanges CAPD vs. four 2-Liter exchanges CAPD) on residual kidney function, technique survival, patient survival, and peritonitis in incident Chinese peritoneal dialysis patients.

Read the detailed description
  1. The primary end point for this study was changes in residual kidney function including GFR, daily urine volume (Uvol), and anuria-free survival. GFR and Uvol were evaluated within 1 week before CAPD initiation (the baseline), and then at month 1, 6, 12, 18 and 24. At the same time, body weight, blood pressure, daily net ultrafiltration, dialysis adequacy, peritoneal solute transport rate, and biochemical parameters etc. were assessed. Once an episode of peritonitis or other serious reversible intercurrent illness occurred, all the assessments were delayed one month after being cured. Anuria was termed by daily Uvol permanently less than 100 ml.
  2. The secondary end points included technique survival, patient survival and peritonitis. Technique failure was defined as switching to maintenance hemodialysis.

What participants receive

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

  • Three 2-liter exchanges daily CAPDOther

    Also called small volume CAPD

    CAPD regimen of three 2-liter daily exchanges

  • Four 2-liter exchanges daily CAPDOther

    Also called standard volume CAPD

    CAPD regimen of four 2-liter daily exchagnes

What is being measured

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

  1. Residual kidney function including glomerular filtration rate (GFR), daily urine voume (Uvol), and anuria-free survival.

    GFR was calculated by the mean of renal clearance of urea and creatinine from a 24-h urine collection. Anuria was termed as consistently Uvol < 100 ml/day for more than a month.

    Measured: Up to 24 months after CAPD initiation

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of participants having technique failure refering to switching to maintenance hemodialyisis

    Measured: Up to 24 months after CAPD initiation.

  2. Number of participants died

    Measured: Up to 24 months after CAPD initiation

  3. Episodes of peritonitis

    Measured: Up to 24 months after CAPD initiation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Three 2-liter exchanges daily CAPD and Four 2-liter exchanges daily CAPD in people with End Stage Renal Disease and Anuria, run by Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine at 1 site in China.

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 2 inclusion and 4 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 22 Jul 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 China. 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?

Residual kidney function including glomerular filtration rate (GFR), daily urine voume (Uvol), and anuria-free survival. (time frame: Up to 24 months after CAPD initiation). 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 NCT01637792, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 22 Jul 2016.
