      Education Programs for Chronic Kidney Disease

      Fairfax, Virginia
      The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two health system-based approaches for offering kidney failure treatment options to older patients with kidney failure, specifically, to ensure patients are actively involved in a shared decision making (SDM) process covering a full range of treatment choices and have meaningful access to that full range of choices. These include standard in-center or home dialysis as well as alternative treatment plans (ATPs): active medical care without dialysis, time-limited trial of dialysis, palliative dialysis, and deciding not to decide. Approach 1 - Educate and Engage: Nephrology practices encourage their patients to a) participate in a kidney disease education program providing a balanced presentation of all options including ATPs, b) use evidence-based patient decision aids that include ATPs, and c) engage in SDM with staff trained in communication skills and best practices. Approach 2 - Educate and Engage Plus Kidney Supportive Care Program: Nephrology practices add a primary palliative care program to support patients who choose ATPs and their families. The program provides care coordination, symptom management, advance care planning, and psychosocial support to supplement usual care from their nephrologist. To compare the two approaches, the investigators will conduct a repeated, cross-sectional stepped wedge cluster randomized trial involving 20-25 chronic kidney disease clinics at 8 practice organizations around the United States. Aim 1: Compare the effectiveness of Approaches 1 and 2 in a) increasing proportion of patients choosing ATP and b) reducing patient-reported decisional conflict about treatment. Aim 2: Compare the patient and family experience of ATP care between Approaches 1 and 2 in terms of quality of life, services used, and end of life (EOL) experience. Aim 2a will focus on experience while patients are receiving an ATP. Aim 2b will describe the EOL experience. Aim 3: Evaluate implementation of each approach through a mixed-methods design based on the expanded RE-AIM framework. For Aims 1 and 2, researchers will collect information by chart review and surveys with patients and caregivers. For Aim 3, information will be reported by site managers as part of monthly progress reports. Clinic administrators, clinical providers, and staff will complete surveys before and after implementation of each approach.

      Communication Tool Training for Kidney Failure

      Baltimore, Maryland
      The purpose of this study is to test the effect of the "Best Case/Worse Case" (BC/WC) communication tool on receipt of palliative care and intensity of treatment at the end of life, quality of life, and quality of communication for older patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) receiving outpatient care at ten nephrology clinics. The intervention was developed and tested with acute care surgical patients at the University of Wisconsin (UW) and is now being testing to see if the intervention will work in a different setting. The intervention will be tested with 320 older adults who have end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and are receiving care from a nephrologist enrolled in the study. Randomly assigned nephrologists within each site will receive the intervention (training to use the BC/WC tool) or to be in the waitlist control, meaning that they will not be offered BC/WC training until the end of the study, when all participants have been enrolled. Participants will be on follow up with surveys and chart review for up to two years after study enrollment. Caregivers will also be invited to participate and complete surveys.

      Daprodustat for Pediatric Anemia

      Charlottesville, Virginia
      This is an international, multicenter trial, evaluating pharmacokinetics (PK) (4 weeks), safety (52 weeks), and hemoglobin (Hgb) response (52 weeks) to daprodustat in children and adolescent participants with anemia associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) incorporating 2 independent sub-trials (Non dialysis \[ND\] and Dialysis \[D\]). This study will enroll participants with anemia associated with CKD, in 2 distinct sub-populations differing only by their CKD stage and dialysis requirement (ND: CKD stage 3 to 5 not yet receiving dialysis and D: CKD stage 5d undergoing peritoneal dialysis \[PD\] or hemodialysis \[HD\]). The maximum duration of the study will be approximately 60 weeks, including Screening period (up to 4 weeks), treatment period (52 weeks), and follow-up period (4 weeks). Outcome measures are identical for the ND and D sub-trials, but will be separately assessed in each sub- trials, overall and within each age subgroups (12 to less than \[\<\] 18 years, 6 to \<12 years, 2 to \<6 years, and 3 months to \<2 years). Except for PK and dose change, which is within each age group only.

      CAR-T Cell Therapy for Kidney Transplant Desensitization

      Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
      This research study is for people who have been waiting for a kidney transplant for at least one year, and who have a cPRA of 99.5% or higher. Having a cPRA of 99.5% or higher means that your immune system would reject 99.5% of kidneys available for transplant. The study will test whether new products called Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cells (CAR T Cells), when given with chemotherapy, is safe and will reduce cPRA. The main study will last up to 2 years: Participants will have up to 30 clinic or hospital visits over a one-year period. If a transplant takes place, there will be 9 more visits after transplant. Long term follow up is required by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for 15 years after receiving CAR T cell. The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of administering CART BCMA + huCART-19 following lymphodepletion, including determination of optimal tolerated regimen (OTR) and/or recommended phase 2 regimen, according to the incidence of dose limiting toxicity (DLT) in highly sensitized patients awaiting kidney transplant.

      endoAVF vs surgAVF for Chronic Kidney Failure

      Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
      Patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) who use hemodialysis to filter their blood require vascular access for the dialysis machine; the most common type of vascular access is called an arteriovenous fistula (AVF). The AVF is a direct connect between an artery and vein. Until recently, AVFs were only created through surgery that requires general anesthesia and opening up the skin. Now there are 2 FDA-approved devices designed to create AVFs using endovascular techniques (endoAVF), which means a device that goes through the skin instead of opening the skin up. Also patients are not required to be under general anesthesia, they can receive local anesthesia instead. Due to the relatively new approval of these devices, there is not a randomized study to compare the results of endoAVF versus surgAVF. This study is a pilot study for an eventually larger scale study to compare the results of endoAVF versus surgAVF. The study aims to determine what the proportion of patients seeking hemodialysis access could qualify for receiving either an endoAVF , surgAVF, or both. Patients who are screened for hemodialysis access must undergo a duplex ultrasound of the blood vessels in the arm to confirm correct sizing. If participants qualify for both procedures they will be randomized to either endoAVF or surgAVF and will track the clinical and patient-reported outcomes of each procedure. Our pilot study hopes to enroll 90 participants. Those outcomes will inform a larger scale study. If the potential participant chooses to abstain from participation in the randomized trial, preferring to decide the method of AVF creation, we will offer to them a chance to join an endoAVF/surgAVF registry that will track the clinical outcomes of the procedure via medical record monitoring.

      CHOOSE Home Intervention for Dialysis

      Bronx, New York
      The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if this intervention (the CHOOSE Home intervention) is feasible and may lead to more home dialysis usage in a high-risk patient population. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Will there be an increase in home dialysis selection or initiation over study follow up? * Will there be a change in patient reported status of Health-Related Social Needs (HRSNs) and patient engagement at 1 year follow up? Researchers will compare the intervention group that will include interdisciplinary care (IDC) and the integration of a Community Health Worker (CHW) into the chronic kidney disease (CKD) care process to the IDC only control group. The research team will assess whether the intervention led to better social care navigation, enhanced patient engagement, and increased home dialysis use.

      Semaglutide for Type 2 Diabetes with Dialysis

      Chapel Hill, North Carolina
      This study will look at control of blood sugar levels in persons with type 2 diabetes mellitus currently on chronic dialysis. Researchers will compare blood sugar levels in people taking semaglutide to people taking "dummy" medicine. The treatment participants get will be decided randomly. Participants will need to inject the study medication once a week. The study will last for 1 year and a month. Participants will be asked to wear a sensor that measures blood sugar levels for a period of 10 days at five different time points during the study.

      AP301 for High Phosphate Levels

      Cheektowaga, New York
      The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if AP301 could work in the patients receiving maintenance dialysis with elevated blood phosphate. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does AP301 lower blood phosphate levels? * Does AP301 works on serum calcium level, calcium times phosphate level, and intact parathyroid hormone level? * What discomfort or medical problem do the patients have when taking AP301? * Does AP301 improve quality of life in Chinese patients? The researchers will compare AP301 to an ineffective comparator (a look-alike substance that contains low dose AP301) to see if AP301 works to treat elevated blood phosphate. In the study, the patients will experience the following stages in a chronicle order: * Stop all using blood phosphate-lowering drugs, * Take AP301 or the comparator three times a day for 8 weeks, * Take AP301 three times a day for 24 weeks, and * Take AP301 or the comparator three times a day for 3 weeks. In the first 32 weeks, the dose of AP301 will be adjusted upwards or downwards based on the patient's blood phosphate level and the study doctor's judgment. If the participant has a blood phosphate level above or below a certain level, they may receive additional treatment to lower the blood phosphate level.

      Phosphate Level Management for Kidney Failure

      Oakville, Ontario
      During end-stage kidney disease, clinical guidelines suggest reducing elevated phosphate levels in the blood. However, the effect of lowering blood phosphate levels on important patient-centred outcomes has never been tested. This trial will evaluate whether compared to high levels, lowering blood phosphate levels would reduce death or major events due to heart disease, improve physical health, and be cost-effective.

      Peritoneal Ultrafiltration for Chronic Kidney Failure

      London, Ontario
      Sodium accumulates in the tissues of patients with kidney disease and impairs survival. Three-times weekly, standard hemodialysis alone cannot remove excess sodium efficiently. A sample of 10 chronic hemodialysis patients will undergo a 5-week, pilot, interventional study to test the efficacy of additional sodium removal in-between hemodialysis sessions, twice per week, for three weeks. Tissue sodium removal will be achieved with peritoneal dialysis after the surgical insertion of a peritoneal dialysis catheter. Tissue sodium removal will be assessed at the beginning and at the end of the study with sodium magnetic resonance imaging of a peripheral limb (leg). Patients will also undergo monitoring for symptoms and blood pressure throughout the study to assess the safety of this procedure.

      PROMs Assessment for Chronic Kidney Disease

      Toronto, Ontario
      Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are reports coming directly from patients about how they function or feel in relation to a health condition and its therapy, without interpretation of the patient's responses by a clinician or anyone else. PROMs capture patients' experiences of symptoms and impact of disease on functioning and can support clinicians to monitor disease progression and facilitate patient-centered care. The EMPATHY trial will determine the effects of routinely measuring PROMs on the experiences of patients undergoing hemodialysis in Alberta and Ontario. In this study, two kinds of PROMs will be used: a disease-specific PROM and a generic PROM. The disease-specific PROM focuses on health symptoms related to kidney failure and the generic PROM focuses on general health. In the trial, patients will be invited to complete the PROMs, and results of the measures will be linked to treatment aids for clinicians, providing specific information on how symptoms can best be managed. These care pathways will also be available to patients not receiving PROMs. The main outcome of this study will be patient-clinician communication, which will be assessed using a questionnaire called the "Communication Assessment Tool". In addition to assessing the effect of using these questionnaires on patient-provider communication, this study will allow us to explore whether their use affects patient management and symptoms, use of healthcare services, and the overall cost of implementing these questionnaires in clinical practice. Each dialysis unit (including all patients) will be randomized to one of four study groups: 1) Patients will complete the disease-specific PROM; 2) Patients will complete the generic PROM; 3) Patients will complete both the disease-specific and generic PROM; 4) Patients will receive usual care. Clinicians (in dialysis units randomized to PROMs, groups 1-3) will receive the results of the questionnaires completed by the patients. This is intended to trigger the clinician to ask the patient about certain symptoms if any exist. All clinicians in all study groups will have access to the clinical "treatment aids", which are tools that help identify and manage certain symptoms that patients might have. For example, people with severe itching will be cared for based on a step-wise treatment algorithm. Patients will also receive a report of their questionnaire(s) results, with an explanation of what it means.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      How much do Dialysis clinical trials pay?

      Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

      How do Dialysis clinical trials work?

      After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Dialysis trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Dialysis is 12 months.

      How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

      Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

      What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

      The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

      Do I need to be insured to participate in a Dialysis medical study?

      Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

      What are the newest Dialysis clinical trials?

      Most recently, we added Geriatric Care Model for Dialysis, Canagliflozin for Chronic Kidney Disease and CHOOSE Home Intervention for Dialysis to the Power online platform.
