About this study

Official title: Acute Kidney Injury In Subjects With Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Due to SARS-CoV2 Infection

Severe pneumoniae related to Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19), had a high in-hospital mortality; this condition are worst in subjects with acute kidney disease (AKI); conditioning increased mortality, days of assisted mechanical ventilation (AMV), increased nosocomial infections and high costs. We need many studies for determinated the risk factors for AKI in subjects with COVID-19.

This study pretends identify the incidence of AKI in subjects with severe pneumoniae by COVID-19, describe the role of some biomarkers in the physiopathology of AKI-COVID-19; and determine the evolution of urinary biomarkers during hospitalization, like neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 (TIMP-2), insulin-like growth factor binding protein-7 (IGFBP7), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) and the progression of viruria of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) related to CoronaVirus 2 (CoV2) in subjects with or without AKI.

Read the detailed description

The usefulness of urinary NGAL levels and the platelet / lymphocyte index as predictive markers of AKI in the context of COVID-19 will be studied. These results will allow to propose more appropriate strategies for the prevention, diagnosis and timely management of patients with severe pneumonia due to COVID-19 and AKI. Knowing the viral load in urine and its evolution in patients with and without AKI will allow us to explore associations between the presence of the virus at the local level and the presence of kidney damage. Likewise, the presence of viral load in urine and its possible relationship with the local activation of the complement system, together with the detection of biomarkers of kidney damage, like NGAL, TIMP-2, IGFBP7, and IL-6, will allow us to better understand the pathophysiology of these alterations in the context of COVID-19; additionally, some patients received tocilizumab, an IL-6 inhibitor as a compassionate measure, which may reduce urinary levels of interleukins and other inflammatory markers.

Finally, the study of possible differences in the metabolome in urine in patients with and without acute kidney injury could favor the discovery of new markers to identify patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection susceptible to the development of AKI.

What is being measured

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

  1. Urinary levels of renal biomarkers

    To estimate the strength of association between the elevation of urinary levels of NGAL, TIMP-2, IGFBP7 and IL-6 and the development of AKI associated with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia

    Measured: Seven days

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Incidence of AKI

    Describe the incidence of AKI in critically ill patients with severe COVID-19 pneumonia

    Measured: One month

  2. Urinary levels of renal biomarkers and mortality

    Estimate the strength of association of elevated urinary levels of NGAL, TIMP-2, IGFBP7 and IL-6 with mortality

    Measured: 30 days

  3. Urinary levels of renal biomarkers and severity of the disease.

    Estimate the strength of association of elevated urinary levels of NGAL, TIMP-2, IGFBP7 and IL-6 with teh severity of the disease.

    Measured: 30 days

  4. Risk factors for AKI in severe COVID-19

    Identify possible risk factors (epidemiological, clinical, paraclinical, use of nephrotoxic agents) for the development of AKI in critically ill patients with COVID-19 pneumonia.

    Measured: 30 days

  5. Evolution renal biomarkers

    Compare the evolution over time of renal function markers (NGAL, TIMP-2 and IGFBP7) in patients with and without kidney injury.

    Measured: 7 days

  6. Evolution of viral load

    Compare the evolution over time of the SARS-CoV-2 viral load in patients with and without acute kidney injury.

    Measured: 7 days

  7. Evolution of complement pathway

    Measured: seven days

  8. Metabolomic profile

    Analyze the metabolomic profile in urine in patients with and without acute kidney injury with SARS-CoV-2 infection.

    Measured: 7 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronavirus Infection and Covid19, run by Instituto Nacional de Enfermedades Respiratorias at 1 site in Mexico.

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 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 6 Jun 2024. 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 Mexico. 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?

Urinary levels of renal biomarkers (time frame: Seven days). 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 6 Jun 2024.
