Trial summary

Weight loss surgery is the most effective weight loss treatment available, but the direct effect on chronic kidney disease is less widely understood. Early research shows some improvement in kidney function may occur and candidacy for kidney transplantation can be improved with weight loss following surgery. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Effect of Weight Loss Surgery on Preservation of Kidney Function and Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors in Obese Patients With Stages 3-4 Chronic Kidney Disease: a Randomised Controlled Trial

Weight loss surgery is the most effective weight loss treatment available, but the direct effect on chronic kidney disease is less widely understood. Early research shows some improvement in kidney function may occur and candidacy for kidney transplantation can be improved with weight loss following surgery. To date, no randomised controlled trial has been performed to examine the effect of weight loss surgery on the progression of chronic kidney disease.

This randomised trial will allocate patients to either lifestyle modification with diet, exercise and pharmacotherapy, or weight loss surgery to remove two thirds of the stomach using the laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy procedure. This study aims to evaluate weight loss surgery vs lifestyle modification in patients with chronic kidney disease with estimated kidney function of 20-60% and morbid obesity (BMI 35-45) in terms of kidney function, cardiovascular disease risk factors and all-cause mortality.

    Measured: 0, 6, 12 months

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Composite end point of death and cardiovascular outcomes (stroke, myocardial infarction or congestive heart failure hospitalisation)

    Measured: 0, 6, 12, 24, 36 months

  2. Quality of life and anxiety and depression assessment

    Measured: 0, 6, 12, 24, 36 months

  3. Urinary albumin to creatinine ratio and protein to creatinine ratio

    Measured: 0, 6, 12, 24, 36 months

  4. Body composition (weight, BMI, waist and hip circ, BIA)

    Measured: 0, 6, 12 months

  5. Insulin resistance (HOMA method)

    Measured: 0, 6, 12 months

  6. Serum adiponectin, leptin, IL-6, TNF-α, hs-CRP, fetuin a

    Measured: 0, 6, 12 months

  7. Urinary markers IL-6, MCP-1, IL-1β, RBP, NAG

    Measured: 0, 6, 12 months

  8. Endothelial function (flow mediated dilatation)

    Measured: 0, 6, 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy and weight management program in people with Chronic Kidney Disease and Obesity, run by King's College Hospital NHS Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 7 inclusion and 9 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 9 Jun 2016. 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 Kingdom. 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?

Measured glomerular filtration rate (renal function) using the iohexol clearance method in patients with stages 3-4 chronic kidney disease (time frame: 0, 6, 12 months). 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 NCT01053130, 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 9 Jun 2016.
