About this study

Official title: The Cardiovascular Protective Effects of Febuxostat in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients: a Prospective Cohort Study

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Febuxostat could protect cardiovascular function of peritoneal dialysis patients by lowering serum uric acid.

Read the detailed description

Patients with more than 3-month-history of peritoneal dialysis and hyperuricemia. Use Febuxostat to control their serum uric acid for 1 year. To observe the cardiovascular events of patients, and compare and evaluate the changes of heart function, heart construction, serum cardiac markers and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels before and after Febuxostat treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. cardiovascular events (heart failure, myocardial infarction, unstable angina which need hospitalization,heart surgery, or death caused by cardiovascular disease.)

    heart failure, myocardial infarction, unstable angina which need hospitalization,heart surgery, or death caused by cardiovascular disease.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Serum uric acid

    blood test for serum uric acid

    Measured: 1st month, 2nd month, 3rd month, 6th month, 9th month, 12th month

  2. cardiovascular function (Heart construction and cardiac ejection fraction determined by echocardiography; blood test: cardiac markers including troponin,myoglobin and creatinine kinase, MB isoenzyme (CK-MB), brain natriuretic peptide)

    Heart construction and cardiac ejection fraction determined by echocardiography; blood test: cardiac markers including troponin,myoglobin and creatinine kinase, MB isoenzyme (CK-MB), brain natriuretic peptide.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Disorders Associated With Peritoneal Dialysis and Hyperuricemia, run by Shanghai 10th People's 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 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 24 Jul 2019. 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?

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?

cardiovascular events (heart failure, myocardial infarction, unstable angina which need hospitalization,heart surgery, or death caused by cardiovascular disease.) (time frame: 1 year). 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 24 Jul 2019.
