About this study

Official title: Effect of Treatment of Hyperuricemia on Progression of Diabetic Nephropathy in Patients With Type II Diabetes Mellitus and Stage III Chronic Kidney Disease.

The purpose of the study is to detect the effect of treatment of hyperuricemia on eGFR (Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate) as an objective criterion for assessment of progression of diabetic nephropathy in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Read the detailed description

After being informed about the study and potential risks, all patients giving written informed consent will undergo a 1-week screening period to determine eligibility for study entry.

At week 0, patients who meet the eligibility requirements will be randomized in a double-blind manner (participant and investigator) in a 1:1 ratio to Febuxostat (80 mg, once daily) or Placebo (once daily) in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Stage 3 Chronic Kidney Disease (Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate 31:59).

Being tested
Febuxostat
Medical subject headings
Hyperuricemia, Diabetic Nephropathies

What participants receive

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

  • FebuxostatDrug

    uric acid lowering agent. dose: 80 mg once daily. duration: for 6 months

Study groups in NCT04799925
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Intervention groupHyperuricemic group will be treated with uric acid lowering drug (febuxostat 80 mg once daily for 6 months).
Receives: Drug: Febuxostat
Placebo groupHyperuricemic group will take placebo pills.

What is being measured

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

  1. Effect of treatment of hyperuricemia on estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate by the CKD-EPI (Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration) equation.

    Number of Participants with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and stage 3 Chronic Kidney Disease (eGFR: 31:59) will be treated with uric acid lowering drug (febuxostat, 80 mg, once daily) for 6 months to detect the effect of treatment of hyperuricemia on estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate by the CKD-EPI (Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration) equation.

    Measured: 6 months from September 2021 to march 2022.

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 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Mohamed Ragab Eldremi (00201114430050, muhammadragab90@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Effect of treatment of hyperuricemia on estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate by the CKD-EPI (Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration) equation. (time frame: 6 months from September 2021 to march 2022.). 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 16 Mar 2021.
