Trial summary

Nedd4.2 is a regulator of ENac, a transporter of sodium involved in the regulation of salt retention by the kidney. The study address the consequence of a frequent genetic variation leading expected to impact the function of Nedd4 and in turn, the ability of kidneys to excrete salt intake.

About this study

Official title: Clinical, Pharmacological and Biological Investigations of a Polymorphism of Nedd4 , a Regulatory Protein of the Epithelial Sodium Channel

Nedd4.2 is a regulator of ENac, a transporter of sodium involved in the regulation of salt retention by the kidney. The study address the consequence of a frequent genetic variation leading expected to impact the function of Nedd4 and in turn, the ability of kidneys to excrete salt intake. Our hypothesis is that the genetic variants of Nedd4.2 could constitute a genetic predisposition to (or protection against) salt-sensitive hypertension.

Read the detailed description

Subjects were submitted one week to a low sodium-high potassium diet, and then switch to a high sodium,-low potassium diet for two weeks. the last week, subject were taken a 20 MG daily dose of amiloride, a potassium sparing diuretic.

What is being measured

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

  1. Difference in Blood Pressure among genotypes

    24h AMBP will be measured weekly for the duration of study, an expected average of 3 weeks

    Measured: 24h AMBP will be measured weekly for the duration of study, an expected average of 3 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Ambulatory Blood Pressure (AMBP)

    24h AMBP was measured fourth : at the beginning of the study,at the end of the low sodium-high potassium diet, after one week under the high sodium-low potassium diet and at the end of amiloride treatment under high sodium-low potassium diet

    Measured: three weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Diet Amiloride in people with Hypertension, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris.

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 6 inclusion and 0 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 Oct 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 was stopped early (reason given: end of recruitment period was reach). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Difference in Blood Pressure among genotypes (time frame: 24h AMBP will be measured weekly for the duration of study, an expected average of 3 weeks). 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 Oct 2012.
