About this study

Official title: Effect of Intraoperative Dexmedetomidine on Development of Acute Kidney Injury Following Cytoreduction and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy: a Double-blind Randomized Clinical Trial

To investigate the renal protective effect of dexmedetomidine in patients undergoing cytoreduction and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy

Read the detailed description

A cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy may lead to the renal hypoperfusion, systemic inflammatory response, and oxidative stress. Dexmedetomidine has been known to protect the kidney against inflammation and oxidative stress in diverse clinical settings. It may also enhance a renal perfusion by inhibition of renal sympathoexcitation. We hypothesized administration of dexmedetomidine might protect the kidney in patients undergoing cytoreduction and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy.

What participants receive

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

  • DexmedetomidineDrug

    Dexmedetomidine group :1ug/kg IV loading over 20 minutes followed by 0.5ug/kg/hr IV infusion after induction of anesthesia until the completion of the surgery

  • Normal SalineDrug

    Control group :IV loading and infusion of same volume of normal saline after induction of anesthesia until the completion of the surgery

What is being measured

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

  1. Change of Creatinine clearance from baseline

    Assessment of the creatinine clearance which reflects kidney function during postoperative 7 days

    Measured: Postoperative day 1,2,3,4,5,6,7

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Dexmedetomidine and Normal Saline in people with Malignant Tumor, run by Gangnam Severance Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Jan 2018. 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 South Korea. 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 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?

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?

Change of Creatinine clearance from baseline (time frame: Postoperative day 1,2,3,4,5,6,7). 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 NCT02641938, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Jan 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
