Trial summary

Oxidative stress is involved in the pathophysiology of diabetic nephropathy. The superoxide-generating nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-oxidase 2 (NOX2, encoded by the CYBB gene) and the antioxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) play opposing roles in the balance of cellular redox status.

Study population: Three cohorts pf type 1 diabetic patients were used for the present study. The first one is a Brazilian cohort with 451 patients recruited in diabetes/endocrinology departments of three university hospitals in the cities of São Paulo (SP), Campinas (SP) and Porto Alegre (RS), Brazil between October 2004 and October 2012. The second one is a French/Belgium cohort with 501 patients recruited from both countries between November 1998 to December 2000. The third cohort is a French/Belgium cohort with 444 patients recruited from both countries between May 1994 to April 1995.

About this study

Official title: Sex-specific Associations of Variants in the Regulatory Regions of NADPH Oxidase-2 (CYBB) and Gluthatione Peroxidase 4 (GPX4) Genes With Kidney Disease in Type 1 Diabetes.

Oxidative stress is involved in the pathophysiology of diabetic nephropathy. The superoxide-generating nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-oxidase 2 (NOX2, encoded by the CYBB gene) and the antioxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) play opposing roles in the balance of cellular redox status. In the present study, we investigated associations of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the regulatory regions of CYBB and GPX4 with kidney disease in patients with type 1 diabetes.

Read the detailed description

In the present study, three cohorts of type 1 diabetic patients (one Brazilian and two French/Belgium cohorts) were studied for the association with diabetic nephropathy (DN) with a total of 1396 patients. The patients were classified according to the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) or urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER) in absence of nephropathy, defined as ACR <30 mg/g or UAER < 20 µg/min or < 20 mg/L and plasma creatinine <1.7 mg/dL; incipient nephropathy, defined as persistent microalbuminuria (ACR 30 - 300 mg/g of creatinine or UAER 20 - 200 µg/min or 20 - 200 mg/L) and plasma creatinine <1.7 mg/dL; established diabetic nephropathy, defined as past or present macroalbuminuria (ACR >300 mg/g of creatinine or UAER >200 µg/min or > 200 mg/L) and plasma creatinine <1.7 mg/dL; advanced diabetic nephropathy, defined as past or present macroalbuminuria, plasma creatinine >1.7 mg/dL and any renal replacement therapy. Genotyping of polymorphisms was performed by Real Time PCR using fluorescent-labelled probes.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetic Nephropathy, run by University of Sao Paulo General Hospital at 1 site in Brazil.

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 3 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 14 Mar 2013. 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 Brazil. 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?

Albumin to Creatinine Ratio (time frame: Two Years). 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 14 Mar 2013.
