About this study

Official title: MicroRNAs in Acute Kidney Injury (MIRAKI) - a Pilotstudy -

Profiling of microRNAs and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Analysis: Prediction of acute kidney injury by plasma expression profile of microRNAs?

Read the detailed description

In this pilot study we will include 150 patients undergoing cardiac surgery in a German university hospital. We will profile microRNA expression in plasma and urine before and at several timepoints after surgery. We will use a preselected panel of microRNAs and lncRNAs for analysis. Goal is to identify microRNAs/lncRNAs that are able to predict the occurence of AKI in these patients.

Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Kidney Injury in Cardiac Surgery - Expression of microRNAs, run by Heinrich-Heine University, Duesseldorf 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 5 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 7 May 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?

acute kidney injury (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 7 May 2020.
