Trial summary

Renal denervation (the use of radio waves to oblate the renal artery) has been shown to be an effective treatment for high blood pressure. It is currently being tested in heart failure patients and we would now like to look it its effects on diabetes. Read more about this study

  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Over 18 years
  • Able and willing to provide informed consent
  • Patients with established type II diabetes mellitus (HbA1C>7%, diet or oral hypoglycaemic agents)
  • Clinical stable as demonstrated by no change in background anti-diabetic medication in the last 30 days.
  • Anticipated that patients are able to maintain a stable dose of medication for the duration of the study

Who cannot join

  • Renal arterial anatomy ineligible for RDN: main renal arteries <4 mm in diameter or <20 mm in treatable length; multiple renal arteries where main renal artery is estimated to supply <75% of the kidney; haemodynamically or anatomically significant renal artery abnormality or stenosis in either renal artery which, in the investigator's opinion, would interfere with safe cannulation of the renal artery or require surgical repair or interventional dilation
  • History of prior renal artery intervention including balloon angioplasty, stenting or previous renal denervation.
  • Single functioning kidney
  • Need for insulin (interferes with euglycemic clamp testing) or GLP-I analogues
  • eGFR <30 ml/min (MDRD formula)

About this study

Official title: Effect of Renal Sympathetic Denervation on Glycemic Status Independent of Blood Pressure-lowering.

Renal denervation (the use of radio waves to oblate the renal artery) has been shown to be an effective treatment for high blood pressure. It is currently being tested in heart failure patients and we would now like to look it its effects on diabetes.

We therefore plan to enrol 20 participants with type II diabetes into this study. Half will undergo renal denervation in addition to their standard care and the other half will act as controls and only receive standard care. Treatment allocation will be randomly assigned.

All participants will undergo screening (including a physical exam, blood tests, ultrasounds and a muscle biopsy). All patients will have follow up tests (including physical exams and blood tests) 1, 3 and 6 months later.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Renal denervation in people with Diabetes, run by Monash University at 1 site in Australia.

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 6 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Jun 2016. 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 Australia. 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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Glycemic control (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 2 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 1 Jun 2016.
