About this study

Official title: CAN-AIM to PREVENT: CANadian Study, Assessing Inflammatory Markers to PRedict EVents in Nephrology sTudy

Longitudinal cohort of patients with chronic kidney disease followed in 3 kidney centers in Ontario. The goal is to determine whether and how rates of renal disease progression are affected by inflammatory markers, FGF23 levels, and genetic polymorphisms

Read the detailed description

This longitudinal cohort study will follow 2500 prevalent Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)patients under the care of a nephrologist at 3 Southern Ontario Nephrology centres and all affiliated satellite centres with an estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) less than 60 ml/min to determine the rate of their renal disease progression over a 36 months. All CKD patients older than 18 years of age may be included in this study. This study will analyze, with 6 month serial measurements, conventional biochemical, hormonal and metabolic parameters in addition to the demographics, clinical status, medications and blood and urine samples of these patients. This study will assess the influence of inflammation on FGF23 and genetic polymorphisms that may reflect the processes involved with disease progression.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Kidney Disease, run by Institute of Kidney Lifescience Technologies.

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 4 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 1 Sep 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Renal function at study censure (time frame: 3 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 1 Sep 2017.
