About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Prospective, Observational Study to Evaluate the Renoprotective Effect of Fimasartan in Patients With Diabetic Kidney Disease and Proteinuria

This study aims to observe changes in various indicators of renal function, such as proteinuria at different time points: short-term (Week 8), 6 months (Week 26), and a year (Week 52), in patients with DKD and hypertension, who are given antihypertensives containing fimasartan, in an actual clinical environment where a variety of patient characteristics are reflected.

Read the detailed description

This prospective observational study is conducted in about 5 medical institutions located in Korea, which are equal to or larger than a hospital, and patients with type 2 diabetic kidney disease (proteinuria with an ACR of 10 mg/g or higher), who are being administered or plan to be administered with antihypertensives containing fimasartan for essential hypertension, are enrolled as the subjects. Each of the subjects shall undergo follow-up for about a year (52 weeks). After explaining the purpose, method, scope of information to be collected, and procedure of this study to potential subjects, the investigator shall obtain the written consent for voluntary participation and set the day when the antihypertensive containing fimasartan is administered as the baseline. If the fimasartan-based antihypertensive treatment is already ongoing, only the patients within 6 weeks from the baseline shall be considered as the subjects. In this case, data from between the baseline and the time of the written consent shall be collected retrospectively. This study is an observational study, and the drugs which are administered during the study period and the medical procedures shall be in accordance with the clinical judgment of the investigator. It is a rule that no unnecessary intervention shall be imposed on the subjects by this study protocol.

The scope of data to be collected during this study period is as follows.

  • Demographic information
  • Disease information (diabetes, hypertension, renal disease, other past medical history and intercurrent diseases)
  • Physical measurements (height and weight)
  • Clinic blood pressure measurements
  • Laboratory test results
  • Antihypertensives, hypoglycemic agents, and other concomitant drugs
  • Fimasartan-related adverse drug reactions and serious adverse drug reactions
  • Death information (if applicable)

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of change in albuminuria (urine ACR)

    The descriptive statistics (number of subjects, average, standard deviation, median, minimum value, quartile, and maximum value) regarding the rate of change in albuminuria (urine ACR) at the baseline, on Week 8, and on Week 8 compared to the baseline shall be obtained

    Measured: Week 8

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Quantity of change in albuminuria (urine ACR)

    The descriptive statistics (number of subjects, average, standard deviation, median, minimum value, quartile, and maximum value) regarding the quantity of change in albuminuria (urine ACR) at the baseline, on Week 8, and on Week 8 compared to the baseline shall be obtained

    Measured: Week 8

  2. Rate of change in albuminuria (urine ACR)

    The descriptive statistics (number of subjects, average, standard deviation, median, minimum value, quartile, and maximum value) regarding the rate of change in albuminuria (urine ACR) at each time point, on Week 26 and Week 52 compared to the baseline shall be obtained

    Measured: Week 26, Week 52

  3. Rate of change in proteinuria (urine PCR)

    The descriptive statistics (number of subjects, average, standard deviation, median, minimum value, quartile, and maximum value) regarding the rate of change in proteinuria (urine PCR) at each time point, on Week 8, Week 26, and Week 52 compared to the baseline shall be obtained

    Measured: Week 8, Week 26, Week 52

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetic Kidney Disease and Proteinuria, run by Boryung Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd at 1 site in South Korea.

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 12 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 Jul 2023. 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 South Korea. 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?

Rate of change in albuminuria (urine ACR) (time frame: Week 8). 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 12 Jul 2023.
