About this study

The overall goals of this study are to demonstrate the change in renal tubular function in living donors pre and post nephrectomy at 6 months.

Read the detailed description

The physiologic sequelae of living kidney donation are still poorly understood. Uni-nephrectomy from donation results in decreased number of glomeruli and research has shown that there is glomerular hyperfiltration and glomerular hypertrophy. Uni-nephrectomy also results in a decreased number of tubules, but there is not much data about possible tubular injury post donation and its long term effects on donors.

Our overall hypothesis is that post uni-nephrectomy tubular function, measured by maximum urine concentration capacity, will be decreased and may be a more sensitive marker of kidney damage than standard tests, such as urine albumin, serum creatinine, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), or measured urine creatinine clearance (CrCl). The goal of this study is to evaluate the effect of uni-nephrectomy on renal tubular function and its potential in being an early and more sensitive marker in kidney injury when compared to standard tests.

What participants receive

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

  • DesmopressinDrug

    Subjects will complete a water deprivation test using desmopressin to aid in the determination of maximum tubular concentration capacity before and six months after uni-nephrectomy.

DesmopressinExperimentalAll ten subjects will be evaluated pre and post nephrectomy at 6 months.
Receives: Drug: Desmopressin

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage change in tubular function (urine osmolality measured in MOSMOL/K) pre and post nephrectomy as assessed through water deprivation and administration of desmopressin.

    Tubular function is measured as maximal urine concentrating capacity reached after water deprivation and administration of desmopressin.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Sensitivity of serum creatinine when compared to change in tubular function, pre and post nephrectomy as measured in MG/DL.

    To test correlations between biomarkers all variables will be log-normalized and Pearson's regression analysis will be used

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Sensitivity of urine albumin excretion when compared to change in tubular function, pre and post nephrectomy as measured in MCG/ML.

    To test correlations between biomarkers all variables will be log-normalized and Pearson's regression analysis will be used

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Sensitivity of eGFR when compared to change in tubular function, pre and post nephrectomy as measured in mL/min.

    To test correlations between biomarkers all variables will be log-normalized and Pearson's regression analysis will be used

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Desmopressin in people with Kidney Damage, run by University of Kansas Medical Center at 1 site in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 May 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 United States. 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 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Percentage change in tubular function (urine osmolality measured in MOSMOL/K) pre and post nephrectomy as assessed through water deprivation and administration of desmopressin. (time frame: 6 months). 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 20 May 2019.
