About this study

Official title: Computational Approach to Personalized Anemia Management

The purpose of this study is to prospectively collect data on doses of Erythropoietic Stimulating Agents (ESA) and Intravenous Iron, and the markers of erythropoietic activity and iron status. These data will be used to derive mathematical models which will subsequently guide dosing of both agents, such that a desired therapeutic outcome is achieved in every patient, while minimizing patient exposure to both agents.

Read the detailed description

Data will be collected from 120 subjects undergoing hemodialysis treatment at 3 clinical sites across United States (40 per site).5.5 mL blood specimen will be drawn during midweek treatment (Wed/Thu) to measure:

Hemoglobin Concentration Hematocrit Red Blood Cell Count Platelet Count Reticulocyte Percentage Reticulocyte Hemoglobin Mean Cellular Hemoglobin Mean Cellular Hemoglobin Concentration Mean Cell Volume Red Cell Volume Distribution Width Mean Platelet Volume Serum Iron Serum Ferritin Transferrin Saturation Hepcidin Soluble Transferrin Receptor

Weekly ESA and Iron dose delivered will also be recorded.

From these data:

  1. a mathematical model will be established to find biomarkers most descriptive with respect to erythropoiesis-iron synergy,
  2. a mathematical model will be established to correlate iron dose with iron markers.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Specimen collectionOther

    At the beginning of each midweek hemodialysis session, a blood specimen (4 mL) will be drawn from the study subject. Out of this specimen a 1 mL serum sample will be frozen and stored. A 3 mL blood sample will be shipped overnight to WNERTA for laboratory testing.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Anemia of End Stage Renal Disease, run by University of Louisville at 3 sites 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 1 inclusion and 4 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 27 Oct 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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.

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?

Hemoglobin Concentration (g/dL) (time frame: 52 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 27 Oct 2022.
