About this study

Official title: Interleukin-6, Procalcitonin and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor in Plasma and Dialysate Correlate With Peritoneal Solute Transport and Dialysis Adequacy in CAPD Patients

The aim of study was to evaluated the correlation between plasma levels, dialysate appearance rate of VEGF, inflammatory cytokines (IL- 6, procalcitonin) and PSTR, dialysis adequacy in CAPD patients.

Read the detailed description

This cross -sectional study measured IL-6, procalcitonin and VEGF level in plasma and overnight effluent. PSTR of small solutes was evaluated by standard peritoneal equilibration test (standard PET). Weekly Kt/V and creatinine clearance (CCr ) were evaluated in all patients.

Being tested
Measure plasma and dialysate level of IL-6, procalcitonin and VEGF
Keywords
CAPD, Peritoneal solute transport rate, Dialysis adequacy
Medical subject headings

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Kidney Disease, run by Bangkok Metropolitan Administration Medical College and Vajira Hospital at 1 site in Thailand.

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 5 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 29 Aug 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 Thailand. 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?

plasma level of VEGF, IL-6 and procalcitonin with the PSTR and dialysis adequacy in CAPD patients (time frame: 2 years). 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 NCT02881892, which also lists 5 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 29 Aug 2016.
