About this study
The goal of this real-world observational study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the Chinese herbal-derived therapeutic Danshen injection following immunosuppressive therapy and prophylactic anticoagulation with low molecular heparin for acute kidney injury in primary nephrotic syndrome. The main questions to answer are:
Whether or not Danshen injection is beneficial for acute kidney injury patients in primary nephrotic syndrome patients.
Read more
Whether or not Danshen injection will increase the bleeding risk in primary nephrotic syndrome patients receiving low molecular heparin.
Participants' information will be retrieved from hospital files stored in medical records and the electronic patient data registry. Participants received Danshen injection will be compared with control group to evaluate the recovery of renal function and side effects.
Read the detailed description
Background and objectives: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication of primary nephrotic syndrome (PNS), affecting approximately 23.7% to 34% of PNS patients. No randomized clinical trials and clinical drug intervention studies focus on renal function recovery of AKI in PNS patients. The aim of this study is to assess the clinical effectiveness and safety of a common traditional Chinese herbal medicine (Danshen) in PNS with AKI patients.
Methods:
This study will be a retrospective cohort study of PNS with AKI patients. Renal function recovery and adverse events of the patients receiving Danshen injection(DS group) will be compared with that of the patients with supportive care(SC group) .The study will be conducted using Hospital Information System of the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University which has longitudinal health information on over 6 million predominantly privately insured individuals and includes over 50 million followup records. The data of inpatients diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome will be reviewed retrospectively. Patients' information includes socio-demographic characteristics, administrative claims (diagnosis and procedure codes), medical histories, laboratory test results and pharmacy claims. PNS wih AKI inpatients will be enrolled. The baseline characteristics will be propensity-score matched. The outcomes are complete and partial renal function recovery for effectiveness analysis and severe bleeding events for safety analysis. Comparisons of cumulative recovery rate will be performed by Kaplan-Meier curves and log-rank test. Risks for outcomes will be assessed using Cox proportional hazard regression models.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Acute Kidney Injury and Nephrotic Syndrome, run by First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University at 1 site in China.
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 13 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 10 Oct 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 China. 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 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?
complete renal function recovery renal function recovery recovered to normal level (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?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06071533, which also lists 10 linked publications.
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 Oct 2023.
