About this study

The clinical and biochemical improvement observed in kidney transplant (RT) recipients is remarkable. The correct functioning of the allograft depends on various factors such as the donor's age, the alloimmune response, the ischemia-reperfusion injury, arterial hypertension, and the interstitial fibrosis of the allograft, among others. Antihypertensive drugs are necessary for arterial hypertension patients to avoid or reduce the probability of affecting graft function in RT recipients. Oxidative stress (OS) is another complex pathophysiological process with the ability to alter post-transplant kidney function. The study's objective was to determine the effect of the administration of Enalapril, Losartan, or not antihypertensive medication on the oxidative state in RT recipients at the beginning of the study and one year of follow-up.

Read the detailed description

An open, randomized clinical trial is proposed with a control group. It is carried out in the Transplant Division of the High Specialty Medical Unit of the Hospital de Especialidades, Centro Médico Nacional de Occidente of the Mexican Institute of Social Security in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico. The sample size was based on the formula to evaluate mean differences for clinical trials. Three study groups were formed; thirteen patients with RT who did not require any antihypertensive. Thirteen RT patients to receive Enalapril as an antihypertensive regimen. Thirteen RT patients to receive Losartan as an antihypertensive regimen in the post-transplant period. Recipients of a RT, from a living related donor (DVR) or living unrelated donor (DVNoR) who agreed to participate and signed the Letter of Consent under Information.

Patients who received an RT from a deceased donor, from a donor >55 years, with renal comorbidities at the time of the study (urolithiasis, infections, diabetes), with blood dyscrasias, second transplantation, treatment with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, statins, spironolactone, pentoxifylline, patients with neurodegenerative processes or who withdrew the Letter of Consent under Information are not eligeble.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor and Angiotensin Receptor Blockers in people with Oxidative Stress, run by Unidad de Investigacion Medica en Enfermedades Renales at 1 site in Mexico.

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 2 inclusion and 9 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 2022. 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 Mexico. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Products of lipoperoxidation (LPO) (oxidative stress molecule) (time frame: 1 year after renal transplant). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 2022.
