About this study

Official title: Prospective Parallel-Group Study of the Relationship Between Kidney Injury Severity and Severity of COVID-19

The authors hypothesize that the SARS-CoV-2 virus can affect the kidneys, causing them to be damaged. The present study aims to explain the mechanisms of kidney injury in patients diagnosed with COVID-19.

Read the detailed description

In December 2019, an outbreak of the 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) caused by the SARS coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) occurred in Wuhan, China. It has spread rapidly to other areas in China and worldwide. The most common manifestations of COVID-19 included fever, dry cough, dyspnea, myalgia, fatigue and radiographic evidence of pneumonia. Complications (acute respiratory distress syndrome, shock, acute cardiac injury, secondary infection, and acute kidney injury) and death may occur in severe cases. Recent reports showed that extrapulmonary symptoms (intestinal symptoms in 10-20% of patients) and renal failure in some patients may be associated with the interaction of the virus with angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE-2) receptors in other organs. It was suggested that ACE-2 expression in the kidneys can be the cause of kidney injury occurring in a number of patients with SARS-CoV-2.However, ACE-2 is not the only possible cause of kidney injury - sepsis-related cytokine storm can also lead to damage of kidney parenchyma.

The present study aims to explain the mechanisms of kidney injury in patients diagnosed with COVID-19.

What participants receive

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

  • mRNA in urine testDiagnostic test

    Also called chest and abdominal CT scan, CRP, Hb, Presepsin

    Assessment of renal function, expression of viral RNA in urine and assessment of radiological changes will be performed

Study groups in NCT04386564
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Mild COVID-19Pneumonia without respiratory failure
Receives: Diagnostic Test: mRNA in urine test
Moderate COVID-19 up to 60 yearsRespiratory frequency ≥30/minute, blood oxygen saturation≤93%
Receives: Diagnostic Test: mRNA in urine test
Moderate COVID-19 over 60 years old and severe COVID-19Pneumonia with respiratory distress syndrome
Receives: Diagnostic Test: mRNA in urine test

What is being measured

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

  1. The effect of COVID-19 severity on the severity of renal failure

    estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), ml/min, in groups with mild, moderate and severe COVID-19

    Measured: 2 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. The expression of viral RNA in the urine with the severity of renal failure

    viral RNA concentration in urine, ME/ml

    Measured: 2 months

  2. The severity of microalbuminuria in patients with COVID-19 of different conditions and renal failure

    albumine excretion with urine, g/ml

    Measured: 2 months

  3. Assessment of the severity of renal impairment in patients who died from COVID-19

    estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), ml/min

    Measured: 2 months

  4. Estimation of the duration of urinary viral RNA isolation in patients undergoing COVID-19

    Duration of viral RNA detection in urine by PCR, weeks

    Measured: 2 months

  5. Expression of ACE-2 receptors in the kidneys of patients with renal failure who died from COVID-19

    expression of ACE-2 by imminohistochemistry at autopsy specimen

    Measured: 2 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of COVID-19 and Kidney Injury, run by I.M. Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University at 1 site in Russia.

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 1 inclusion and 6 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 9 Feb 2021. 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 Russia. 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?

The effect of COVID-19 severity on the severity of renal failure (time frame: 2 months). 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 9 Feb 2021.
