About this study

Official title: The Pharmacologic Profile of Sodium Thiosulfate in Renal Failure and Healthy

The pharmacokinetics of sodium thiosulfate in humans with different degrees of renal failure and in healthy volunteers will be after two single shot applications.

Read the detailed description

Two single shot applications of i.v. sodium thiosulfate will be given to dialysis patients. One application will be given immediately before a dialysis session and the second dose will be given after the consecutive dialysis session.

In healthy volunteers sodium thiosulfate will be given only once. In both groups, dialysis patients and healthy volunteers, blood and urinary/dialysate samples will be collected at defined time points.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sodium thiosulfate in people with Renal Failure, run by Insel Gruppe AG, University Hospital Bern at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 1 inclusion and 2 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 13 Oct 2011. 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 Switzerland. 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?

Elimination half life in dependence of the degree of renal failure (time frame: 0, 15, 30, 60, 180 minutes and 24 hours after application). 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 NCT01008631, 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 13 Oct 2011.
