Trial summary

Many children with end stage renal disease develop hyperlipidemia. HMG-CoA (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A) reductase inhibitors, such as pravastatin, are typical treatments for hyperlipidemia. However, we do not know how pravastatin is metabolized in patients on dialysis. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Single-dose Pilot Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics of Pravastatin Given as an Oral Dose in Pediatric and Adolescent Subjects 12 Months to 16 Years of Age Receiving Continuous Cycling Peritoneal Dialysis

Many children with end stage renal disease develop hyperlipidemia. HMG-CoA (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A) reductase inhibitors, such as pravastatin, are typical treatments for hyperlipidemia. However, we do not know how pravastatin is metabolized in patients on dialysis. This study is designed to provide preliminary pharmacokinetic data for pravastatin in pediatric patients on peritoneal dialysis.

Read the detailed description

This is a single-dose pilot study to evaluate the pharmacokinetic profile of pravastatin in 7 pediatric and adolescent subjects ranging from 12 months to 16 years of age who are on dialysis. The study group will be comprised of healthy children receiving continuous cycling peritoneal dialysis (CCPD). Pravastatin dosing will be 10 mg in all subjects. Blood, urine, and dialysate samples will be obtained over a 24-hour period post-dose for measurement of pravastatin concentrations. Safety evaluations will include adverse events (AEs), physical examination, vital signs, and clinical laboratory evaluations.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing pravastatin in people with End Stage Renal Disease, run by Arkansas Children's Hospital Research Institute 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 5 inclusion and 8 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Mar 2017. 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. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 15 Mar 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Pharmacokinetics (time frame: 24 hours). 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 15 Mar 2017.
