Trial summary

Patients with chronic kidney disease struggle to eliminate phosphate as the renal function deteriorates, which results in accumulation of phosphate in the body. This has been shown to increase the patients' risk of cardiovascular disease and death. Read more about this study

About this study

Patients with chronic kidney disease struggle to eliminate phosphate as the renal function deteriorates, which results in accumulation of phosphate in the body. This has been shown to increase the patients' risk of cardiovascular disease and death. Even with dialysis treatment the patients cannot excrete enough phosphate to reach phosphate balance. The patients are therefore recommended a very restrictive diet when they reach the dialysis stage. It is therefore important to find ways to prevent such accumulation of phosphate in the body as early in the disease process as possible, but without compromising the nutritional status. Because phosphate occurs naturally in many of our foods, such as meat, fish and dairy products, it is difficult to reduce the intake of phosphate, without also reducing the intake of energy and protein. Over the past couple of years there has been an increased focus on the use of phosphate containing additives in the food industry. A reduction in the intake of phosphorus containing additives may reduce the accumulation of phosphate in the body. This can be achieved by decreasing the intake of processed food products. Because it is also very time consuming and inconvenient for the patient to keep these strict diets, the patients have a reasonable claim to know which effects can be achieved by such diets. This will therefore seek to be further explored in the following study. The study is conducted as a randomised crossover trial in predialysis patients stage 3-4.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Diet with phosphate containing additives and Diet without phosphate containing additives in people with Chronic Kidney Disease, run by University of Copenhagen at 1 site in Denmark.

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 6 inclusion and 11 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 18 Jul 2014. 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 Denmark. 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?

Phosphate balance (time frame: 1 week). 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 18 Jul 2014.
