Trial summary

Triptolide was shown in experimental studies to inhibit the cyst formation and growth in ADPKD models, while triptolide-containing formulation was revealed to potentially slow the disease progression in several proteinuric ADPKD patients in our clinical practice. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Randomized Controlled Trial of Triptolide-Containing Formulation for Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD)

Triptolide was shown in experimental studies to inhibit the cyst formation and growth in ADPKD models, while triptolide-containing formulation was revealed to potentially slow the disease progression in several proteinuric ADPKD patients in our clinical practice. It remains to be shown the effect of triptolide-containing formulation on total kidney volume (TKV) enlargement and renal function protection in ADPKD patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Triptolide-Containing Formulation in people with Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD), run by Shanghai Changzheng Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Apr 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 China. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 Changlin Mei, MD (chlmei1954@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

renal volume measured by high resolution magnetic resolution imaging (time frame: 2 yrs). 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 17 Apr 2014.
