About this study

Official title: Phase 4 Study of Oral Calcitriol for Reduction of Mild Proteinuria in Patients With CKD

The safety and efficacy of Caltriol on mild proteinuria (<1.0g/d) reduction in CKD patients.

Read the detailed description

Proteinuria is not only a capital sign of kidney disease, but also a marker of chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression. Emerging evidence in patients with CKD show that vitamin D and its analogs can reduce proteinuria or albuminuria in the presence of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibithion. While some of the studies reported that vitamin D receptor activation has been associated with increased serum creatinine and reduced estimated glomerular filtration rates. Therefore, the investigators plan to conduct a randomized clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Calcitriol in the treatment of mild proteinuria (<1.0g/d) CKD patients,which has no specific treatment at present.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Calcitriol in people with Chronic Kidney Disease and Proteinuria, run by Huashan Hospital 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 12 inclusion and 9 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jing Chen, M.D. PhD (86-21-52889387, chenjing1998@fudan.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the percentage change of proteinuia (time frame: 24 weeks). 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 29 Mar 2013.
