Trial summary

The investigators enrolled 90 patients on maintenance hemodialysis with dialytic vintage ≥12 months, iPTH 150-300pg/ml and serum calcium<2.5mmol/L. Patients were randomized to three groups with different dialysate calcium concentration , 1.25 mmol/L(DCa1.25), 1.5mmol/L(DCa1.5) and 1.75 mmol/L(DCa1.75) for 24 months… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Effects of Different Dialysate Calcium Concentration on Mineral-bone Metabolism in Chinese Patients on Maintenance Hemodialysis

The investigators enrolled 90 patients on maintenance hemodialysis with dialytic vintage ≥12 months, iPTH 150-300pg/ml and serum calcium<2.5mmol/L. Patients were randomized to three groups with different dialysate calcium concentration , 1.25 mmol/L(DCa1.25), 1.5mmol/L(DCa1.5) and 1.75 mmol/L(DCa1.75) for 24 months respectively. Hemodialysis was performed for 4 hours three times weekly. Serum total calcium(tCa), ionized calcium(iCa),intact parathyroid hormone(iPTH)and phosphorus (P) levels were recorded before and after the study and single dialysis session in every patient. iCa and P levels were measured in spent dialysate.Bone density, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase(BAP), osteoprotegerin(OPG)、β-crosslaps、total Procollagen Type I Intact Propeptide (P1NP)and vascular calcification were measured in every patient periodically. vascular calcification including aortic arch calcification, abdominal aorta calcification and coronary artery calcification were measured by chest radiography, lateral lumbar radiographs and coronary artery computer tomography (CT) respectively. The primary endpoints included death, cardio-cerebral vascular disease(defined as heart failure, myocardial infarction and stroke), newly nontraumatic bone fracture, secondary parathyroidism uncontrolled by medicine and valvular or vascular calcification. The secondary endpoint were admission or emergency observation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing different dialysate calcium concentration in people with Mineral-bone Metabolism, run by Beijing Friendship 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 30 Apr 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.

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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

death (time frame: 24months). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 30 Apr 2013.
