Trial summary

During ultra endurance events, athletes experience extreme physical and mental demands, sometimes at the limits of the adaptive response to human physiology. This is particularly true for the renal function, and some evidence for acute renal failure has already been shown, sometimes leading to dialysis. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Renal Function Evaluation in an Ultra Endurance Race: On the Interest of Monitoring Specific Biomarkers to Asses Renal Risk.

During ultra endurance events, athletes experience extreme physical and mental demands, sometimes at the limits of the adaptive response to human physiology. This is particularly true for the renal function, and some evidence for acute renal failure has already been shown, sometimes leading to dialysis. However, the precise mechanisms involved in acute renal failure in such ultra endurance races are not clearly elucidated.

The aim of our study is to estimate glomerular filtration rate from serum and urinary creatinine and cystitin C at the beginning and at the end of a 110 km ultra endurance race. Our hypothesis is that during the ultra endurance race, renal function may be injured, with a risk for the athlete.

What participants receive

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

  • INFERNAL InterventionOther

    The intervention consists in serum and urinary dosage (creatinine and Cystatin C) at the beginning and the end of the 110 km race.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
INFERNAL ArmExperimentalThe INFERNAL Arm will have serum and urinary dosage for creatinine and cystanin C at the beginning and at the end of the 110 km race.
Receives: Other: INFERNAL Intervention

What is being measured

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

  1. Glomerular filtration rate

    The glomerular filtration rate will be calculated from the serum and urinary creatinine and cystatin C dosage

    Measured: 30 minutes at baseline (09.07.2017), and 30 minutes at the end of the 110 km race (2 or 3 days after baseline)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing INFERNAL Intervention in people with Renal Insufficiency, Acute, run by Central Hospital, Nancy, France at 1 site in France.

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 8 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 12 Sep 2017. 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 France. 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.

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?

Glomerular filtration rate (time frame: 30 minutes at baseline (09.07.2017), and 30 minutes at the end of the 110 km race (2 or 3 days after baseline)). 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 NCT03136315, which also lists 4 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 12 Sep 2017.
