About this study

SCOPE-PLUS is an optional substudy of the observational SCOPE Study (Screening for Chronic Kidney Disease among Older People across Europe, NCT02691546). The objective of the SCOPE-PLUS study is to derive new equations based on innovative and novel biomarkers of CKD function and compare its accuracy to measure GFR in the population older than 75 years.

Read the detailed description

SCOPE-PLUS is an optional substudy of the SCOPE cohort study (Screening for Chronic Kidney Disease among Older People across Europe, NCT02691546). SCOPE has retrieved data on a wide panel of biomarkers of CKD in a large study cohort enrolling about 2,450 older people in Italy, Spain, Germany, Austria, Netherlands, Poland and Israel. The innovative biomarkers have been already validated by the literature, and include e.g. Cystatin C (CysC), β-Trace protein (BTP), and Beta2-microglobulin. Others promising novel biomarkers of CKD, based on metabolomic and proteomic determinations or other techniques have been evaluated. The objective of the SCOPE-plus study is to to verify the accuracy of newly developed equations based on innovative and novel biomarkers of CKD function by calculating the percentage of estimates within 30% (P30) of the measured GFR (mGFR). The mGFR will be obtained by the assessment of nonradioactive iohexol clearance. Patients previously enrolled in the SCOPE study, are invited to participate in this additional protocol. Iohexol is an iodinated contrast medium with characteristics similar to those of inulin, being freely filtered by the glomerulus, neither secreted nor reabsorbed by the renal tubules and recovered almost 100% in the urine. These characteristics made it an ideal agent for the determination of the renal function.

What is being measured

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

  1. To measure GFR in subjects aged 75 or older by iohexol clearance to verify the accuracy of equations of innovative and novel biomarkers of CKD newly evaluated in the SCOPE study

    Iohexol solution 5 mL (Omnipaque, GE Healthcare), containing 3235 mg of iohexol will be administered intravenously into an antecubital, forearm, or hand vein and flushed with 10 mL of normal saline. Blood samples for serum creatinine and other biomarkers will be obtained before iohexol is applied. Blood samples will be obtained after 5 minutes from the contralateral arm to confirm that the Iohexol has been administered correctly intravenously. Subsequent blood sample will be collected (always from the contralateral arm) at 10, 20, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240 and 300 minutes after injection. The exact timing of the samples collection will be recorded. All clearance measurements will be started between 8:00 and 10:30 a.m.

    Measured: 300 minutes from intravenous injection of iohexol

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Kidney Diseases, run by Istituto Nazionale di Ricovero e Cura per Anziani at 5 sites in 4 countries.

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 5 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 5 Mar 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Italy, Austria, Netherlands, Spain. 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?

To measure GFR in subjects aged 75 or older by iohexol clearance to verify the accuracy of equations of innovative and novel biomarkers of CKD newly evaluated in the SCOPE study (time frame: 300 minutes from intravenous injection of iohexol). 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 5 Mar 2024.
