About this study

Conducted as a randomized controlled clinical trial, this study aims to assess the potential benefits of incorporating dapagliflozin, an SGLT-2 inhibitor, into the treatment regimen of patients diagnosed with primary nephrotic syndrome. The primary focus is on examining the impact of dapagliflozin on two key parameters: proteinuria and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR).

The trial involves adult participants who have been definitively diagnosed with primary nephrotic syndrome through renal biopsy. In conjunction with their standard care, these participants will receive a daily dose of dapagliflozin at 10 mg. Over a span of six months, they will undergo comprehensive monthly assessments. These assessments will involve the collection and analysis of urine samples to quantify proteinuria and perform urinalysis. Additionally, blood samples will be taken to determine the estimated eGFR, lipid profile, glycated hemoglobin. Participants will also be encouraged to report any potential side effects resulting from their medication intake.

Study groups in NCT06026787
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Dapagliflozin ArmExperimentalDuring the study duration of 6 months, this cohort will be administered a daily dose of 10 mg dapagliflozin in conjunction with the standard of care for primary nephrotic syndrome based on the KDIGO 2021 guidelines. The conventional treatment regimen may encompass immunosuppressive medications, agents that block the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), statins, and diuretics as deemed necessary.
Receives: Drug: Dapagliflozin 10mg Tab
Control ArmNo interventionThis cohort will exclusively be subjected to the standard of care tailored for primary nephrotic syndrome. This could encompass administration of immunosuppressive drugs, agents targeting the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), statins, and diuretics as warranted by individual needs.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Dapagliflozin 10mg Tab in people with Nephrotic Syndrome and Sodium-Glucose Transporter 2 Inhibitors, run by Ain Shams University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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 7 Sep 2023. 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 Egypt. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Proteinuria (time frame: 6 months). 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 7 Sep 2023.
