About this study

Official title: Effect of 6 Weeks Resveratrol Supplementation on Vascular Function in CKD

The proposed research is clinical study evaluating the therapeutic benefits of resveratrol on vascular function in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The study aims to establish that resveratrol will improve endothelial function and functional performance by reducing oxidative stress and in conjunction with lowering markers of inflammation and oxidative stress.

Read the detailed description

Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have an exceptionally high risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD), and are 10 times more likely to die from CVD prior to requiring dialysis or kidney transplantation. Inflammation, oxidative stress and vascular dysfunction (impaired endothelial function and increased large elastic artery stiffness), are highly prevalent in CKD and contribute to the high incidence of CVD in this patient population. In addition, patients with CKD suffer from high rates of cognitive decline for which we lack effective therapies. Thus, therapeutic interventions targeting inflammation, oxidative stress, vascular dysfunction in CKD are a priority.

Wine intake, which is known to be rich in various polyphenolic compounds, might have a variety of health benefits. Among these polyphenols, the stilbene derivative resveratrol (RSV), a naturally occurring polyphenol found in grapes and red wine, has recently come to light, as it has been shown to exert potent anti-diabetic, anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory actions. Importantly, recent studies have demonstrated that resveratrol is well-tolerated (37) and may confer similar benefits in individuals at high risk of CVD, such as improved endothelial function in individuals with metabolic syndrome (i.e. diabetes)

The primary goal of this application is to determine whether 6 wks resveratrol (RSV) supplementation improves vascular function by reducing oxidative stress in a randomized, double-blind, cross-over study of 25 patients with diabetic kidney disease. The investigators hypothesize that: 1) 6 wks RSV will improve vascular function as measured via BA-FMD vs. placebo and 2) that the improvement in vascular function will be related, at least partially, to a reduction in oxidative stress.

Placebo first, then resveratrolPlacebo comparatorPatients will receive placebo pill identical in appearance and taste to the supplement. Subjects took this placebo twice daily, once in the morning and once in the evening. After a minimum of 2 week washout period, subjects then took resveratrol for 6 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. % Change of Brachial Artery Flow-mediated Dilation

    Brachial artery flow-mediated dilation, dilation of the brachial artery in response to shear stress.

    Resveratrol first, then placebo:

    Baseline to 6 weeks on Resveratrol Minimum 2 week washout Baseline to 6 week on placebo

    Placebo first, then resveratrol:

    Baseline to 6 weeks on placebo Minimum washout 2 weeks Baseline to 6 weeks on resveratrol

    Measured: First Baseline measurement to 6 weeks then Second baseline to 6 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change in oxLDL

    Oxidized low density lipoprotein- (LDL) cholesterol Compare the 6 weeks change from baseline with resveratrol versus placebo

    Measured: 6 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Resveratrol in people with Chronic Kidney Diseases and Endothelial Dysfunction, run by Diana Jalal at 1 site in United States.

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 4 inclusion and 13 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 1 Nov 2024. 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 United States. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 1 Nov 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

% Change of Brachial Artery Flow-mediated Dilation (time frame: First Baseline measurement to 6 weeks then Second baseline to 6 weeks). 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 NCT03597568, 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Nov 2024.
