  • Able to give informed consent after an explanation of the proposed study, and who are willing to comply with the study requirements for therapy during the entire study treatment period.

  • 12. Patient is currently taking another medication with known systemic drug interaction with citrate or heparin.

  • 17. Patient has a condition the investigator believes would interfere with the ability to provide informed consent or comply with study instructions, or that might confound the interpretation of the study results or put the patient at undue risk.
  • 18. Patient has an active malignancy of any type, or has been diagnosed with cancer within 5 years prior to screening (excluding squamous or basal cell carcinoma of the skin).
  • 19. Patient has a known allergy or history of significant adverse reaction to trisodium citrate or related compounds or to any of the excipients (citric acid).
  • 20. Any clinically significant abnormal laboratory test results found during medical screening, as determined by the investigator. NOTE: A test value above or below the normal range does not necessarily indicate that the value is "clinically significant." The determination should be made by the investigator.

About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Safety and Performance of DuraLock-C 4.0%, 30.0%, and 46.7% for the Maintenance of Central Venous Catheter Patency in Adult Hemodialysis Subjects Treated in Clinic

To evaluate the safety and performance of DuraLock-C 4.0%, 30.0%, and 46.7% for the maintenance of central venous catheter (CVC) patency in adult hemodialysis (HD) patients

Read the detailed description

This study is a multicenter, open-label, post-market study to evaluate the safety and performance of DuraLock-C 4.0%, 30.0%, and 46.7% in the maintenance of catheter patency of an indwelling HD CVC in adult HD patients treated in clinic.

On Day 0, patients to be instilled who meet all of the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria will be enrolled in the study to receive 1 of the 3 DuraLock-C solutions. It is expected that a minimum of 3 sites will enroll patients to the study in order to cover the 3 solutions to be tested; each site will enroll to 1 unique DuraLock-C solution only, until the sample size for the solution has been reached.

DuraLock-C 4.0%, 30.0%, or 46.7% solutions will be instilled to lock the catheter as part of the routine care of the patient. Individual patients will receive the catheter locking solution (CLS) as a catheter lock post-HD session until catheter dysfunction is observed or until the end of the study period (Calendar Day 90). The CLSs are commercially available and will not be provided as part of the study design.

End of Study (EOS) will take place at the patient's next scheduled session.

What participants receive

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

  • Locking SolutionDevice

    The total duration of the study treatment period will be 90 calendar days, from Visit 1 Pre-Instillation to the last study-related assessment. Two to 3 instillations (1 per lumen per visit) of DuraLock-C 4.0%, 30.0%, or 46.7% (equivalent to the catheter manufacturer's prescribed priming volume) will be instilled 1 to 3 days apart (with a HD schedule of 3 to 4 times per week); each instillation of CLS will remain in the CVC for approximately 24 to 72 hours ± 12 hours, based on their practice preferences. EOS will take place at the patient's next scheduled dialysis session.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Catheter-Related Infections and Citrate Adverse Reaction, run by Medical Components, Inc dba MedComp at 1 site in France.

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 8 inclusion and 16 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Jan 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 France. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Enrollment was low or halted with few to zero future anticipated enrollments.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Primary Catheter Patency (time frame: 90 days). 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 10 Jan 2024.
