About this study

Official title: Lisinopril To Reduce Microalbuminuria In Postpartum Preeclamptic Women. A Role For Renal Protection?

There may be a role for Lisinopril in improving renal protection in post-partum women who had preeclampsia during pregnancy. The aim of this study is to determine whether routine initiation of Lisinopril after delivery, in women who had preeclampsia while they were pregnant, can control high blood pressure and improve kidney function.

Read the detailed description

This study is being done to determine the effects (good or bad) of Lisinopril (high blood pressure medication) in controlling high blood pressure and improving kidney function for women after delivery who had preeclampsia while they were pregnant .Preeclampsia is a condition that can occur during pregnancy, up to 6 weeks post partum, where the mother's blood pressure is high and protein is present in the urine. This can be dangerous for both the mother and fetus. Although the blood pressure usually returns to normal after delivery, elevated pressures may continue. Normally medication is given when you continue to have high blood pressure after delivery. High blood pressure can cause damage to the kidneys. Lisinopril is a medication that can be used to treat high blood pressure after delivery. Lisinopril offers kidney protection in patients diagnosed with diabetes. We currently do not know if lisinopril can offer the same kidney protection in women diagnosed with preeclampsia. Considering that 10% of all pregnant women develop preeclampsia, the number of women who may eventually develop end stage kidney disease is relatively large and any relatively safe and easy means to prevent this disease would be beneficial.

What is being measured

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

  1. Albumin Excretion Rate in mg/mmol

    Prior to discharge from the hospital, either during the woman's labor progress or immediately post delivery, a catheterized urine specimen will be obtained and sent to the lab for an Albumin-Creatinine Ratio (ACR) by a nurse. Following discharge, the woman will be seen 6-8 weeks postpartum for her routine postpartum visit. If the woman reports vaginal spotting or bleeding a straight catheter urine specimen will be obtained, otherwise a clean catch specimen may be obtained, and sent for lab assessment of Albumin-Creatinine Ratio (ACR). This collection of a urine specimen is standard of care for our pregnant and postpartum patients. Prior to hospital discharge, she will also be instructed to collect a 24 hour urine specimen collection, the day before her 6-8 week postpartum visit and bring it with her to this visit. When analyzed, this second 24 hour urine specimen will be assessed for both albumin concentration and albumin/creatinine ratio (Albumin Excretion Rate).

    Measured: Change is being assessed within 24 hours of delivery and 6-8 weeks postpartum

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Lisinopril in people with Microalbuminuria and Preeclampsia, run by Eastern Virginia Medical School 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 12 inclusion and 14 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Aug 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 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Albumin Excretion Rate in mg/mmol (time frame: Change is being assessed within 24 hours of delivery and 6-8 weeks postpartum). 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 23 Aug 2021.
