About this study

Official title: RAS Blockade at Bedtime Versus on Awakening for the Prevention of Aldosterone Breakthrough

Objective:

To show that the frequency of aldosterone breakthrough is lower when RAS blockers are given at bedtime compared to on awaking, and to analyze the determinants and consequences of aldosterone breakthrough.

Duration of the study: Inclusion 2 years, follow-up one year, total 3 years Design: prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled, open label, two parallel groups.

Main selection criteria:

Inclusion criteria

  • Chronic kidney disease stage 3 to 4,
  • ACEI (captopril, enalapril, or ramipril), and/or ARB (losartan, valsartan, or irbesartan) on awaking for at least three months,
  • History of hypertension or proteinuria > 0,5 g/24h or g/g créatininurie.

Exclusion criteria

  • Office blood pressure ≥ 160/100 mmHg,
  • Anti-aldosterone (spironolactone, eplerenone) or potassium sparing diuretics (modamide, amiloride), or direct renin inhibitor.

Evaluation criteria:

Primary: Serum aldosterone levels at one year.

Secondary:

  • Serum aldosterone/renin ratio,
  • 24h urine aldosterone,
  • Significant aldosterone breakthrough defined by a >10% increase of serum aldosterone levels over baseline values,
  • Aldosterone breakthrough defined by an increase of serum aldosterone levels over baseline values,
  • HbA1c,
  • Urinary albumin/creatinine ratio (UACR) on spot morning urine samples,
  • Systolic home blood pressure (SBP),
  • Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) using the MDRD equation.
Read the detailed description

Rational:

Serum aldosterone levels may increase despite blockade of the renin angiotensin system (RAS) with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB). This aldosterone breakthrough might be associated with bad outcomes: left ventricular hypertrophy, proteinuria and progression of renal failure. Antihypertensive drugs are given either on awaking or at bedtime. RAS is stimulated during nighttime. RAS blockers and diuretics given on awaking may stimulate aldosterone synthesis, and favor aldosterone breakthrough.

Objective:

To show that the frequency of aldosterone breakthrough is lower when RAS blockers are given at bedtime compared to on awaking, and to analyze the determinants and consequences of aldosterone breakthrough.

Duration of the study: Inclusion 2 years, follow-up one year, total 3 years

Design: prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled, open label, two parallel groups.

What is being measured

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

  1. Serum aldosterone levels at one year

    Measured: Level change between baseline and one year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Serum aldosterone/renin ratio

    Measured: level change between baseline and 12 months

  2. Significant aldosterone breakthrough Significant aldosterone breakthrough

    Significant aldosterone breakthrough defined by a >10% increase of serum aldosterone levels over baseline values,

    Measured: changes between baseline and one year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Randomization that determine the time of treatment in people with Chronic Kidney Disease, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nice at 1 site in France.

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 5 inclusion and 3 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 11 Apr 2024. 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 France. 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?

Serum aldosterone levels at one year (time frame: Level change between baseline and one year). 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 11 Apr 2024.
