About this study

Official title: The Effects of Oral Vitamin D Supplementation on the Prevention of Peritoneal Dialysis-related Peritonitis, a Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial

This is a multicenter randomized, placebo-controlled trial of Vitamin D supplementation in patients on peritoneal dialysis to determine whether oral administration of vitamin D3 after curing an episode of peritonitis could reduce the risk of subsequent peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis.

Read the detailed description

176 eligible patients on PD at one month after being cured from an episode of peritonitis will be enrolled and randomized into two groups, including the intervention group administered Cholecalciferol (produced by Xymogen Company) 4000 U (2 capsules) per day, and the control group administered placebo 2 capsules per day. All participants will be followed for 24 months, or till the occurrence of death, permanently transfer to hemodialysis, loss of follow-up, or withdrawal from the study, whichever comes first. The primary outcome is the occurrence of subsequent peritonitis. The study aims to identify whether oral administration of vitamin D3 after curing an episode of peritonitis could reduce the risk of subsequent peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • CholecalciferolDrug

    Also called Natural Vitamin D3

    Patients in the intervention group will receive oral cholecalciferol 4000U per day.

  • PlaceboDrug

    Patients in the control group will receive placebo 2 capsules per day.

Control groupPlacebo comparatorPatients will receive placebo, 2 capsules per day.
Receives: Drug: Placebo

What is being measured

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

  1. Hazard Ratio of Subsequent peritonitis

    Risk of a subsequent episode of peritoneal dialysis related peritonitis in the interventional group compared with the control group measured by Hazard Ratio.

    Measured: 24 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. rate of Systemic infection

    Including respiratory infection, gastrointestinal infection, urinary system infection , skin infection etc.

    Measured: 24 months

  2. rate of Technique failure due to peritonitis

    Including peritonitis associated death (death within 30 days after peritonitis or death during hospitalization due to peritonitis), and transfer to hemodialysis due to uncured peritonitis.

    Measured: 24 months

  3. rate of Death or transfer to hemodialysis with reasons other than peritonitis

    Death or transfer to hemodialysis with reasons other than peritonitis

    Measured: 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Cholecalciferol in people with Peritoneal Dialysis-associated Peritonitis and Vitamin D Deficiency, run by Peking University First 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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Aug 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 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Jie Dong, Professor (13911841538, jie.dong@bjmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Hazard Ratio of Subsequent peritonitis (time frame: 24 months). 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 Aug 2024.
