About this study

Official title: Effects of Supplementation With Resveratrol on Inflammation and Oxidative Stress of Non-dialysis Chronic Kidney Disease Patients

Inflammation and oxidative stress are common findings in patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) undergoing conservative treatment, in addition to being associated with atherosclerotic process, are related also to the progression of CKD. In this regard, resveratrol, a phenolic compound with recognized antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, can play an important role in the control of metabolic disorders associated with CKD, since it can modulate the mechanisms involved in inflammation and oxidative stress cycle. Resveratrol is capable of promoting the activation of the transcription-related factor-2 nuclear factor erythroid factor 2 (Nrf2) , a nuclear factor with anti-inflammatory properties, and SIRT-1, a protein also associated with the reduction of inflammation. These two factors, in their turn, are able to inhibit / antagonize the activity of the nuclear factor κB (NF-kB), a transcription factor that participates in the inflammatory response. Although it is a promising treatment, there are no studies evaluating the effects of resveratrol supplementation in patients with CKD. Thus, this study aims to evaluate the effects of resveratrol supplementation on inflammation and oxidative stress in patients undergoing conservative treatment of CKD.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Resveratrol in people with Chronic Renal Insufficiency, run by Universidade Federal Fluminense.

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 1 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 May 2015. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 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?

Antioxidants and anti-inflammatory biomarkers (time frame: 4 weeks). 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 NCT02433925, 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 May 2015.
