About this study

Official title: Zero Sodium Peritoneal Dialysate Protocol in Human Pilot Study

The following pilot study will be undertaken to determine the effects of use of a zero-sodium peritoneal dialysate solution (10% dextrose in sterile water) on sodium removal as compared to a standard peritoneal dialysis solution.

Read the detailed description

While heart failure (HF) is generally regarded as the inability of the heart to pump sufficient blood, on a population level, volume overload is the primary driver of morbidity and hospitalization. The signs and symptoms of volume overload are driven by water accumulation, which is initially driven by sodium retention. This overall goal of this study is to investigate the ability to remove sodium through use of a zero-sodium solution in peritoneal dialysis.

Being tested
Two-hour dwell with 10% dextrose in sterile water, Two-hour dwell with Dianeal Low-Calcium with 4.25% Dextrose

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Two-hour dwell with 10% dextrose in sterile waterDrug

    Patients will be randomized to undergo a two-hour dwell with 10% dextrose in sterile water at their first or second study visit and will receive the alternate intervention at the other study visit.

  • Two-hour dwell with Dianeal Low-Calcium with 4.25% DextroseDrug

    Patients will be randomized to undergo a two-hour dwell with Dianeal Low-Calcium with 4.25% Dextrose at their first or second study visit and will receive the alternate intervention at the other study visit.

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and tolerability measured by protocol discontinuation due to patient discomfort or adverse event

    Protocol discontinuation will be defined by premature draining of the 10% dextrose peritoneal solution (or 4.25% standard PD solution) prior to the planned two hour drain.

    Measured: Two hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Comparison of total sodium removed compared to baseline

    This exploratory efficacy outcome will be addressed by comparing the quantity of sodium removed during the two-hour dwell between the two solutions

    Measured: Two hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Two-hour dwell with 10% dextrose in sterile water and Two-hour dwell with Dianeal Low-Calcium with 4.25% Dextrose in people with Potential Applications for Heart Failure and Volume Overload, run by Yale University 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 3 inclusion and 8 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 18 Dec 2019. 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. 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?

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?

Safety and tolerability measured by protocol discontinuation due to patient discomfort or adverse event (time frame: Two hours). 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 NCT03801226, 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 18 Dec 2019.
