About this study

Official title: Prospective Evaluation of Changes in Renal Function and Body Composition in Patients With Pulmonary Hypertension

Changes in renal function and body composition in patients with pulmonary hypertension

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in renal function in patients with pulmonary hypertension

    Estimated GFR based on Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration-creatinine-cystatin C will be used to determine renal function at baseline and at 1 year follow-up

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Changes in hydration status in patients with pulmonary hypertension

    Bioimpedance analysis will be used to determine hydration status at baseline and at 1 year follow-up

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Changes in nutritional status in patients with pulmonary hypertension

    Bioimpedance analysis will be used to determine lean tissue and fat mass at baseline and at 1 year follow-up

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Prognostic value of baseline renal function, hydration and nutritional status on pulmonary hypertension-associated morbidity and mortality

    pulmonary hypertension-associated morbidity and mortality (defined as escalation of pulmonary hypertension-specific therapy, unscheduled hospitalization and all-cause mortality) will be prospectively assessed during follow-up period

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pulmonary Hypertension and Renal Function Abnormal, run by University of Giessen at 1 site in Germany.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 17 Dec 2020. 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 Germany. 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?

Changes in renal function in patients with pulmonary hypertension (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT03039972, which also lists 4 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 17 Dec 2020.
