About this study

Official title: Effects of Low Protein Diet Supplemented Keto-/Amino Acid in Preventing the Progression of Chronic Kidney Disease(CKD)

The purpose of this study is to determine whether low protein diet and very low protein diet supplemented keto-/amino acid is effective in preventing the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD , stage 2 to 5).

Read the detailed description

Dietary protein restriction represents a basic therapeutic approach in chronic kidney disease(CKD), by reducing the accumulation of nitrogen catabolic substances, and by delaying the progress of CKD and proteinuria, but the effects of the low protein diet on renal failure progression rate remain to be determined.The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of low protein diet and α-keto acid tablet in retard the progress of CKD. This is a prospective study, 100 patients who meet inclusion and exclusion criteria will be included. The changes of glomerular filtration rate in CKD and time to renal replacement will be evaluated after 1 year treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. changes in glomerular filtration rate

    Nutritional status, evaluated by nutrition risk screening (NRS 2002), at the start and during the 1st year of investigators' intervention.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Compliance to diet

    Compliance to diet, defined by the participants' persistence in low protein diet, by outpatient follow-up and telephone follow-up.

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Nutritional status

    Nutritional status, evaluated by nutrition risk screening (NRS 2002), at the start and during the 1st year of investigators' intervention.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing low protein diet plus α-keto acid in people with Renal Insufficiency, Chronic, run by The Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University 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?

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Apr 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Min Liu, M.D. (86-731-88618717, liumin330@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

changes in glomerular filtration rate (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 19 Apr 2019.
