About this study

Official title: Population Pharmacokinetics of Tacrolimus for Optimal Dose in Patients With Nephrotic Syndrome

This study will use a multi-center, prospective design, with a "Real World Study" model, to include 200 patients with nephrotic syndrome. based on the Population Pharmacokinetics (PPK) model, it will study genotype and clinical factors in patients with nephrotic syndrome, to explore the Pharmacokinetics/ Pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) relationship of Tacrolimus in patients with nephrotic syndrome, and develop an optimal medication regimen.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact ZHIJUN HUANG, Dr. (073188618339, huangzj@csu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

change of plasma concentration of Tacrolimus (time frame: at 0hour,2hours,4hours,6hours,9hours,12hours after oral administration). 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 NCT04045171, which also lists 3 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?
