About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Open-Label Study in Hemodialysis and Non-Hemodialysis Patients With Severe Chronic Kidney Disease to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of KBP-5074 Following Oral Administration

This study explores the use of KBP-5074 in patients with advanced stages of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) (including patients with severe renal impairment and those on hemodialysis [HD]) and to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of single doses of KBP-5074 in male and female patients with severe CKD (defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] ≥15 mL/min/1.73 m2 and ≤29 mL/min/1.73 m2, based on the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease [MDRD] equation) and a subset of patients requiring HD.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 1, multicenter, open-label, 2-part study designed to assess the PK, safety, and tolerability of KBP-5074 in patients undergoing HD and non-HD patients with severe CKD (defined using the eGFR ≥15 mL/min/1.73 m2 and ≤29 mL/min/1.73 m2 based on the MDRD equation). The study will be conducted at up to 4 clinical research units (CRUs) in the US. Approximately 12 patients will be enrolled in the study (a single cohort of 6 patients in each of Part 1 and Part 2). Parts 1 and 2 of the study will be conducted in parallel. If Part 1 is completed prior to the completion of Part 2, or vice versa, the PK, safety, and tolerability analyses for the completed study part may proceed as planned and will not be delayed based on the timing of the other respective study part.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • KBP-5074Drug

    Also called KBP-5074 mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist

    In Part 1 of the study, non-HD patients with severe CKD in Cohort 1 will receive a single oral capsule dose of KBP-5074 on Day 1 following a fast between 2 and 4 hours.

    In Part 2 of the study, HD patients with severe CKD will receive a single oral capsule dose of KBP-5074 following a fast between 2 and 4 hours. The dose of KBP 5074 will be administered on Day 1 immediately following a dialysis session.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing KBP-5074 in people with Chronic Kidney Disease, run by KBP Biosciences 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 9 inclusion and 30 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 30 Dec 2025. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 15 Oct 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants With Treatment-related Adverse Events (time frame: 312 hours). 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 30 Dec 2025.
