About this study

Official title: Department of Geriatrics

Contrast-induced nephropathy has become the third-largest cause of hospital acquired acute renal injury, and which morbidity is only less than that of renal hypoperfusion and renal toxicity of drugs, about 11%of all cases. Pathophysiologic mechanisms of contrast-induced nephropathy(CIN) is not entirely clear yet. May be associated with renal hemodynamic changes, medullary ischemia because of renal blood flow reduction, oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction ,contrast agents damage the epithelium of renal tubular directly and so on. Currently the studies have proved that inflammation(CRP, TNF-α and NF-қB) played a role in CIN.It is well-know that the hyperhomocysteinemia(HHCY) is a independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, which has pro-inflammatory effects. Researches showed that Hcy stimulated CRP generation by the NMDAr-ROS-ERK1 / 2 / p38-NF-қB signaling pathway and triggered inflammatory response. We will compare the CIN incidence of different plasma Hcy levels in adults hypertensive patients undergoing coronary artery diagnosis and treatment(CAG and PCI). CIN was defined as an absolute ≥0.5mg/dl or a relative ≥25% increase in the serum creatinine level at 48 hours after the procedure. The relationship between decreased plasma Hcy levels and blood pressure values by using Enalapril Maleate and Folic Acid Tablets(as the program-based antihypertension) and recovery of CIN has been observed. Using univariate and multivariate Logistic regression to analyse the relationship between HHcy and CIN, and taking receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve to select the best Hcy plasma levels that which can predict the CIN and the probability. This study will help us to understand the relationship between HHcy and CIN that course of the procedure in adults hypertensive patients, preoperative plasma Hcy levels can predict the incidence of CIN and whether Enalapril Maleate Folic Acid tablets can reduce the CIN of hypertensive patients with HHcy. Which has important clinical significance. This study also offer feasibility for further research that HHcy plays a role in pathogenesis and specific signaling pathways of CIN.

Read the detailed description

The first stage: the establishment of hypothesis of the relationship between HHcy and CIN The demographic and laboratory data were retrieved from the His system. Hypertensive patients who underwent coronary artery diagnosis and treatment(CAG or PCI) at Fuling Central Hospital of Chongqing City from June 2013 to August 2015 were initially included in the present study. The baseline characteristics of the hypertensive patients according to the tertile of plasma homocysteine level will be analysed, and investigating the incidence of CIN and relevant factors.

The second stage: To verify the hypothesis of relationship between HHcy and CIN in patients with hypertension CER research method

  1. patients who accepted the coronary artery diagnosis and treatment(CAG and PCI ) in departments of Geriatrics and Cardiovascular within one year were initially participate in. According to the statistics that we finished, the proportion of hypertension in the total patients who underwent procedure has reached about 80%, so there has more than 4000 patients with hypertension within 1 year will be involved. The levels of plasma Hcy in the total patients will be detected. The patients will divided into 2 groups according to the plasma Hcy levels,The hypertensive patients(adults) with their plasma Hcy levels ≥10 umol/L will take Enalapril Maleate and Folic Acid Tablets(as the program-based antihypertension), The hypertensive patients(adults) with their plasma Hcy levels <10 umol/L will take Enalapril Maleate Tablets(as the program-based antihypertension).The procedure will be carried out after blood pressure valves within normal range.
  2. All patients will be followed up for 3 months, they will return to hospital 3 times(once a month) after discharged. Urine routine and renal function will be tested, to register blood pressure,any change of body condition and other related factors per months, and plasma Hcy levels will be detected in the hypertensive patients with higher-homocysteinemia at second and third months after discharged.
  3. Data collection and data statistics will be carried out per 2 months. All patients who undergoing coronary artery diagnosis and treatment(CAG and PCI)will be divided into group A without hypertension, group B that the hypertensive patients with their plasma Hcy levels <10 umol/L and group C that the hypertensive patients with plasma Hcy levels ≥10 umol/L. To compare CIN incidence of the 3 groups at each time point, the CIN incidence of group B and group C will be compared, and association between CIN and the levels of blood pressure and plasma Hcy will be analyzed by multivariate logistic regression analysis according to the ROC curve.

What is being measured

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

  1. The incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy

    CIN was defined as an absolute ≥0.5mg/dl or a relative ≥25% increase in the serum creatinine level at 48 hours after the procedure.

    Measured: At 48 hours after the procedure.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Dialysis

    The hypertensive patients in the 3 groups who had been diagnosed as CIN need to dialysis.

    Measured: Within the first 3 months after procedure.

  2. Ischemic stroke

    The hypertensive patients in the 3 groups who had been diagnosed of ischemic stroke (focal neurological deficits persisting for more than 24 hours) confirmed by non-investigational CT or MRI

    Measured: Within the first 3 months after procedure.

  3. All cause mortality

    Any cause of death in patients

    Measured: Within the first 3 months after procedure.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Aug 2019. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

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?

The incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy (time frame: At 48 hours after the procedure.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02575092, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 6 Aug 2019.
