About this study

Official title: Phase 3 Study of Treatment of IgAN With Multi-glycoside of Tripterygium Wilfordii HOOK. f

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Multi-glycoside of Tripterygium Wilfordii HOOK. f. is effective and safe in the treatment of IgA nephropathy.

Read the detailed description

Primary IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common form of idiopathic glomerulonephritis throughout of the world. The disease is characterized by the predominant deposition of polymer Gal-deficient IgA1 immune complex(pGd-IgA1-IC)in the glomeruli which leads to the proliferation of mesangial cells. Mycophenolate mofetil is reported to be useful in the treatment of IgAN in Chinese patients, but the price is expensive together with some adverse events. Tripterygium Wilfordii HOOK. f. is a traditional chinese medicine and is useful in the treatment of CKD, the purpose of this study is to determine whether Multi-glycoside of Tripterygium Wilfordii HOOK. f. is effective and safe in the treatment of IgA nephropathy

What participants receive

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

  • Multi-glycoside of Tripterygium Wilfordii HOOK. f. (TWH)Drug

    Also called Multi-glycoside of Tripterygium Wilfordii HOOK. f.

    The dosage of 40 mg of Multi-glycoside of Tripterygium Wilfordii HOOK. f. was divided into 2 equal doses at 12-hour intervals for 6 months.

  • Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF)Drug

    Also called Mycophenolate mofetil

    Mycophenolate mofetil 1.5mg/day for the treatment of IgAN for 6 months

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of patients reaching remission

    (i) complete remission was defined as the absence of proteinuria (24-h urine protein < 0.4 g/24 h), serum albumin >35 g/L and Scr < 1.24 mg/ dL; (ii) partial remission was defined as a 24-h urine protein ≤ 3.5 g/24 h and a decline of >50% of the baseline value with an Scr elevation of <15% of the baseline value; (iii) no response was defined as a 24-h urine protein >3.5 g/24h, or a decline < 50% of base- line value or increase and/or an Scr level >50% of the baseline value

    Measured: one year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Renal survival

    Renal survival was estimated on the basis of a 50% increase in baseline serum creatinine concentration.

    Measured: one year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Multi-glycoside of Tripterygium Wilfordii HOOK. f. (TWH) and Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) in people with IgA Nephropathy, run by Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University 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 8 inclusion and 1 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 11 Jul 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. 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 Youming Peng, M.D (8615802604114), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of patients reaching remission (time frame: one year). 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 11 Jul 2014.
