About this study

Official title: Randomized Open Clinical Trial to Compare the Effectiveness of the Administration of Diuretics in Hemodialysis Patients With Residual Renal Function in Single Centre

Introduction: Chronic kidney disease is characterized by a progressive deterioration of renal function. At the end of the progression, when complications occur (overhydration, electrolyte imbalances or retention of uremic toxins), a percentage of patients requiring renal replacement therapy (haemodialysis). When starting the haemodialysis, the patient holds the residual renal function (RRF) which is lost over time. To preserve the RRF, the patient is treated with diuretics loops and / or thiazide diuretics. The effect of this treatment is lost when renal function worsens. In this context, there are few studies that explore the use and effectiveness of diuretics in patients on haemodialysis 2. Objectives and Hypothesis:

Hypothesis: The treatment with furosemide and hydrochlorothiazide in haemodialysis patients with RRF could:

  • To decrease in weight gain between haemodialysis sessions.
  • To increase urine volume.
  • To decrease the ultrafiltration in haemodialysis sessions ( the long interdialytic interval)

Main Objective:To asses the effect of combined hydrochlorothiazide-furosemide therapy on gain weight between haemodialysis sessions in patients with RRF

Secondary Objective: To asses the effect of combined hydrochlorothiazide-furosemide therapy on dialytic, clinical and analytical variables and use of the antihypertensive treatment

  1. Methodology: Randomized open clinical trial to compare the effectiveness of the administration of diuretics in haemodialysis patients with residual renal function in single centre.

The population of study are patients with chronic renal disease in haemodialysis therapy that they preserve residual renal function ( more 200ml daily of urine). It will be a simple randomization, to asses the effect of combined hydrochlorothiazide-furosemide therapy

After a of 15 days washout without diuretic treatment, patients will be randomized to receive or not receive combined diuretic treatment for 1 month. After a 1 month washout , the patients will be receive or not the treatment according to cross over trial.

What participants receive

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

  • Hydrochlorothiazide and furosemideDrug

    This clinical trial is cross-over study. The diuretic arm's patients will receive combined diuretic treatment for 1 month: 20 mg of furosemide three times daily and 50 mg of hydrochlorothiazide twice daily

What is being measured

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

  1. To asses the effect of combined hydrochlorothiazide-furosemide therapy on weight gain between haemodialysis sessions in patients with RRF

    Gain weight

    Measured: 14 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To asses the effect of combined hydrochlorothiazide-furosemide therapy on dialytic, clinical and analytical variables and use of the antihypertensive treatment

    Variations of the next parameters in the different periods(15 days, 1, 2 and 3 months) of the clinical trial:

    urine volume, reduction of ultrafiltration in interdialysis sessions and long interdialytic interval, dry weight, blood pressure intradialysis,plasma potassium, plasma bicarbonate, plasma uric acid, urinary sodium, urinary chloro and urinary potassium in interdialytic sessions . Use of the antihypertensive treatment. To Appear complications for example: hypotensions, cramps and symptomatic hyperuricemia. Creatinine clearance and urea clearance. Use of potassium treatment intradialysis.

    Measured: 14 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Hydrochlorothiazide and furosemide in people with Chronic Kidney Insufficiency and Hemodialysis Treatment, run by Corporacion Parc Tauli at 1 site in Spain.

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 4 inclusion and 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Dec 2014. 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 Spain. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Mabel - Bolos-Contador, MD (0034 937231010 ext. 25010, mabeline17@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To asses the effect of combined hydrochlorothiazide-furosemide therapy on weight gain between haemodialysis sessions in patients with RRF (time frame: 14 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 2 Dec 2014.
