About this study
Official title: Urinary Cell Cycle Arrest Biomarkers as Early Predictors of Acute Kidney Injury Following Advanced Cardiac Replacement Therapies
The purpose of this study is to test how well the NephroCheckTM Test, a noninvasive laboratory test performed on urine, predicts loss of kidney function in patients that have had a heart transplant or a Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) or Total Artificial Heart (TAH) implanted.
Read the detailed description
Current strategies for AKI detection rely primarily on elevations in serum creatinine in conjunction with diminished urine output. Unfortunately, deviations in these crude parameters of renal function are largely insensitive and late manifestations of AKI, where acute tubular necrosis has likely already transpired and therefore well beyond the phase where preventive measures may be instituted. Early phase biomarkers, insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7 ("IGFBP7") and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 ("TIMP-2") are critical mediators of G1 cell cycle arrest of renal tubular cells during the early phase of cellular injury, providing a potential therapeutic window to prevent permanent damage. To date, no study has evaluated the efficacy of these early phase renal biomarkers for detecting AKI in advanced heart failure patients undergoing cardiac replacement therapies.
Therefore, the aim of this prospective observational study will be to evaluate the effectiveness of the NephroCheckTM to predict AKI in patients undergoing transplant, LVAD implant, or TAH implant.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
The purpose of this study is to test how well the NephroCheckTM Test, a noninvasive laboratory test performed on urine, predicts loss of kidney function in patients that have had a heart transplant or a Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) or Total Artificial Heart (TAH) implanted.
Detailed description
Current strategies for AKI detection rely primarily on elevations in serum creatinine in conjunction with diminished urine output. Unfortunately, deviations in these crude parameters of renal function are largely insensitive and late manifestations of AKI, where acute tubular necrosis has likely already transpired and therefore well beyond the phase where preventive measures may be instituted. Early phase biomarkers, insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7 ("IGFBP7") and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 ("TIMP-2") are critical mediators of G1 cell cycle arrest of renal tubular cells during the early phase of cellular injury, providing a potential therapeutic window to prevent permanent damage. To date, no study has evaluated the efficacy of these early phase renal biomarkers for detecting AKI in advanced heart failure patients undergoing cardiac replacement therapies.
Therefore, the aim of this prospective observational study will be to evaluate the effectiveness of the NephroCheckTM to predict AKI in patients undergoing transplant, LVAD implant, or TAH implant.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Acute Kidney Injury and Heart Failure, run by Baylor Research Institute at 1 site in United States.
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 11 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 United States. 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?
[TIMP-2]*[IGFBP7] measurement using NephroCheck following LVAD or TAH implantation (time frame: 1 year). 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?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02827448, which also lists 8 linked publications.
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 11 Jul 2019.
