Trial summary

This study evaluates novel surgical approach in treating small renal masses. Half of participants will undergo hypotonic zero-ischaemia partial nephrectomy (standard of care), while the other half will undergo normotonic zero-ischaemia partial nephrectomy (experimental method).

About this study

This study evaluates novel surgical approach in treating small renal masses. Half of participants will undergo hypotonic zero-ischaemia partial nephrectomy (standard of care), while the other half will undergo normotonic zero-ischaemia partial nephrectomy (experimental method).

Read the detailed description

Partial nephrectomy is believed to be the gold standard for treating small renal masses (SRM). The warm ischaemia and hypotonic zero-ischaemia approach are widely used techniques of care. But they have some negative effects according to renal function (RF) after surgery. We decided to compare influence of arterial blood pressure (normotension or hypotension) during partial nephrectomy on RF.

A single-center prospective study comparing normotonic and hypotonic partial nephrectomy will be conducted.

The design involves random allocation of eligible patients to normotonic or hypotonic partial nephrectomy group in 1:1 ratio.

Experimental group - normotonic partial nephrectomy (avoidance of hypotension: mean blood pressure more or equal 65 mm Hg).

Control group - hypotonic partial nephrectomy (using medical hypotension; avoidance of hypertension: mean blood pressure less than 65 mmHg

According to preliminary calculations, taking into account type I error of 5% and power of 80%, 100 patients should be included in the study. In order to compensate for data loss, the estimated sample size is increased by 10%. As a result, the total sample size is 100 +10 = 110 patients (55 patients for each group). The expected duration of the study is 36 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Renal function

    glomerular filtration rate calculation (mL/min), nephroscintigraphy

    Measured: within the first 3 month after surgery

  2. Blood loss

    Volume of intraoperative blood loss (ml)

    Measured: enrollment

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Disease-free survival

    Survival without local or systemic recurrence (months)

    Measured: 1 year after last patient enrolled

  2. Resection margins status

    Evaluating of resection margins status (positive/negative)

    Measured: enrollment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Normotonic partial nephrectomy and Hypotonic partial nephrectomy in people with Renal Malignant Tumor and Renal Tumor, run by Saint Petersburg State University, Russia at 1 site in Russia.

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 6 inclusion and 7 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 25 May 2022. 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 Russia. 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?

Renal function (time frame: within the first 3 month after surgery). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 25 May 2022.
