About this study

This study is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial on type 2 diabetic Kidney Disease in early stage ( microalbuminuria excretion rate = 20-200mg/min) to evaluate the therapeutic effect of tang shen prescription. 632 participants will be recruited for the study, all of whom had type 2 diabetes, serum creatinine concentrations is normal, and no evidence of non-diabetic renal diseases. The subjects will be randomized to treatment with either tang shen prescription or placebo.

This study is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial on type 2 diabetic Kidney Disease in early stage ( microalbuminuria excretion rate = 20-200ug/min) to evaluate the therapeutic effect of tang shen prescription.632 participants will be recruited for the study, all of whom had type 2 diabetes, serum creatinine concentrations is normal, and no evidence of non-diabetic renal diseases. The study will last for 24 weeks. Subjects will be randomly divided into two groups, either tang shen prescription or placebo,and both of them would be performed on a basic treatment which includes diabetes education, diabetic diet, rational control of blood glucose, and losartan at 50 mg daily, study group take tang wang prescription. Measurements of microalbuminuria excretion rate, albumin-to-creatinine ration, glomerular filtration rate (GFR), serum creatinine concentrations will be tested monthly, and quantity of 24h urinary protein per three months.

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 3 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 4 Jan 2017. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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 Fengmei Lian, PHD (0086-010-88001402, lfm565@sohu.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

changes of albumin-to-creatinine ration (time frame: 0 week,4 weeks, 8 weeks,12weeks,16weeks, 20weeks, 24weeks). 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 NCT03009864, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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?
