About this study

Official title: A Phase 2a, Prospective, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Atrasentan on Reducing Albuminuria in Type 2 Diabetic Nephropathy Subjects Who Are Currently Being Treated With an Renin-Angiotensin System Inhibitor

The study objective is to investigate the effects of three low doses of atrasentan on urinary albumin/creatinine ratio (UACR) levels in subjects with Type 2 diabetic nephropathy.

Patients with Type 2 diabetes with nephropathy must be receiving a renin-angiotensin system inhibitor, such as an Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) or an Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker (ARB) for participation in this study. ACEi and ARB treatment are the standard of care for the management of proteinuria in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) patients.

Being tested
Placebo for Atrasentan 0.2 mg/mL solution, 0.25 mg Atrasentan QD, 0.75 mg Atrasentan QD, 1.75 mg Atrasentan QD

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Mean change from baseline to each post-baseline observation on UACR over the course of treatment period versus standard of care

    Measured: Week 8 visit or final assessment

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Proportion of subjects achieving at least a 25% reduction in final UACR levels from baseline

    Measured: Week 8 visit or final assessment

  2. Proportion of subjects achieving at least a 40% reduction in final UACR levels from baseline

    Measured: Week 8 visit or final assessment

  3. Change from baseline to the final value in UACR, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin (NGAL)

    Measured: Week 8 visit or final assessment

  4. Change from baseline to each weekly measurement in NGAL

    Measured: Week 8 visit or final assessment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing 0.25 mg Atrasentan QD, 0.75 mg Atrasentan QD and 1.75 mg Atrasentan QD in people with Chronic Kidney Disease and Diabetic Nephropathy, run by AbbVie (prior sponsor, Abbott) at 28 sites in 2 countries.

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 13 inclusion and 24 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 6 Jun 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 28 sites in United States, Puerto Rico. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Mean change from baseline to each post-baseline observation on UACR over the course of treatment period versus standard of care (time frame: Week 8 visit or final assessment). 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 NCT00920764, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 6 Jun 2018.
