About this study

Official title: Multi-center, Randomized, Open Label, Comparative, Phase IV Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of a Combination of Mycophenolate Mofetil and Corticosteroid for 48 Weeks in Advanced IgA Nephropathy

The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of that test group was administered with Mycophenolate Mofetil in combination with corticosteroid in patients with advanced IgA nephropathy. The control group will be observed for up to 48 weeks without administration of Mycophenolate Mofetil.

Read the detailed description

The subject who signed the written agreement to participate in the clinical trial evaluates the conformity and then 1: 1 randomly allocated.

The study group were taken 48 weeks with MYREPT ® capsules in combination with corticosteroids and the control group were asked to preserve the conservative treatment regimen prior to the clinical trial registration Maintenance.

The subject who started taking the study medicine will carry out the examination and procedure if it has to be carried out for the visit via outpatient clinic at 4 weeks, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 36 weeks, 48 weeks.

Conditions
IgA Nephropathy
Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Mycophenolate Mofetil, ACE inhibitor and Corticosteroid in people with IgA Nephropathy, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 6 inclusion and 11 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Dec 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 South Korea. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

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 EUNJU JUNG (82-10-5414-7760, oakly74@nate.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Remission rate (complete / partial) (time frame: up to 48 weeks). 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 5 Dec 2016.
