Receives: Device: Catheter-based renal denervation

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and efficacy of renal denervation in patients after renal transplantation

    Effect on blood pressure including office, ABPM, and home-based measurements. Number of adverse events. Changes of antihypertensive medications. Effects on renal function assessed with glomerular filtration rate. Renovascular safety (renal artery stenosis) assessed by duplex ultrasound.

    Measured: Baseline to 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Effect of renal denervation in patients after renal transplantation on different organ systems.

    Effects on sympathetic activity assessed by heart rate variability and post extrasystolic potentiation. Glucose metabolism and insulin resistance (fasting and during oGTT). Hospitalization rates (eg. hypertensive emergencies, heart failure, etc).

    Measured: Baseline to 6 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Catheter-based renal denervation in people with Hypertension and Chronic Kidney Disease, run by Technical University of Munich at 1 site in Germany.

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 7 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 5 Nov 2015. 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 Germany. 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?

Safety and efficacy of renal denervation in patients after renal transplantation (time frame: Baseline to 6 months). 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 NCT01899456, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 5 Nov 2015.
