About this study

Official title: The Safety of Paxlovid (Nirmatrelvir/Ritonavir) in Hemodialysis Patients With SARS-CoV-2 Infection

Infection with SARS-CoV-2 continue to threaten global health. Persons with chronic kidney disease, including dialysis treatment are at hight risk for severe Covid-19 and associated adverse outcomes. Paxlovid (Nirmatrelvir/Ritonavir) decreases risk of progression to severe Covid-19. It is not recommended for dialysis patients because due to lack of data. The aim of the present study is evaluate the safety of Paxlovid in hemodialysis patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection.

This is a prospective study. In stage 1 arm, 10 hemodialysis patients with SARS-COV-2 infection will be treated with nirmatrelvir 150mg qd (another 75mg will be supplied after hemodialysis treatment) and ritonavir 100mg bid everyday for 5 days. In stage 2 arm, 10 patients will be treated with nirmatrelvir 300mg qd (another 150mg will be supplied after hemodialysis treatment) and ritonavir 100 bid everyday for 5 days. The primary outcome is the number of patients whose ALT, AST or total bilirubin increase two times from baseline. The secondary outcome is the number of patients whose SARS-CoV-2 lower than 500 copies/mL.

Age is between 18 and 75 men or women at the screening; 3.Blood purification twice or three times/week, including hemodialysis, hemofiltration, hemodiafiltration, CRRT or hybrid blood purification; 4.Regular hemodialysis≥1 month; 5.Patients with arteriovenous fistula or artificial arteriovenous fistula; 6. Patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 and the CT value of nucleic acid detection<35. The exclusion criteria are 1.Blood purification treatment<1month; 2.Liver function (ALT or AST) is three times the upper the normal; 3.The severe or critical patients with Covid-19; 4.Patients who are treated with medicines that highly dependent on CYP3A, including but not limit to afzosin, pethidine, ranolazine, amiodarone, propafenone, quinidine, fusidic acid, voriconazole, terfenadine, colchicine, rifabutin, clozapine, dihydroergot, cisapride, simvastatin, diazepam, salbutam, triazolam, carbamazepine, phenobarbital, rifampicin; 5.Patients with galactose intolerance; 6. Pregnant and lactating women; 7.Patients was allergic to paxlovid; 8.Participating in other intervention studies; 9.The investigator judged that the condition of the subjects was not suitable for the study.

Subjects in stage 1 arm will be treated with nirmatrelvir 150mg qd (another 75mg will be supplied after hemodialysis treatment) and ritonavir 100mg bid everyday for 5 days. In stage 2 arm subjects will be treated with nirmatrelvir 300mg qd (another 150mg will be supplied after hemodialysis treatment) and ritonavir 100 bid everyday for 5 days. All of subjects will received hemodialysis two times during the study.

The primary outcome is the number of patients whose ALT, AST or total bilirubin increase two times from baseline. The secondary outcome is the number of patients whose SARS-CoV-2 lower than 500 copies/mL.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Nirmatrelvir and ritonavir stage 1 and Nirmatrelvir and ritonavir stage 2 in people with Safety Issues, run by RenJi Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 9 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 14 Jun 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 China. 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 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?

Change of Liver function (time frame: 5 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 14 Jun 2022.
