About this study

Official title: Initiation of Incremental Dialysis With Single Daily Icodextrin Exchange: a Randomized Controlled Trial

Objectives: To investigate the efficacy and safety of single daily icodextrin exchange for initiation of incremental peritoneal dialysis (PD).

Subjects: Seventy-two incident PD patients.

Methods: A single-center randomized controlled trial.

Primary outcome: Change in residual kidney function in 48 weeks after recruitment.

Read the detailed description

Incremental peritoneal dialysis (PD) has become a more prevalently adopted strategy in incident PD patients. There is significant variation in regimens of incremental PD. Initiation of PD with a single daily icodextrin exchange in patients with considerable residual kidney function is able to achieve successful water, sodium removal and solute clearance, while it has not been investigated and validated in randomized controlled trials.

This single-center, randomized, controlled study is to compare the effects of two prescriptions for initiation of incremental PD, a single daily icodextrin exchange versus 2-3 exchanges of glucose-based dialysate, on patients' residual kidney function, survival, peritonitis, and quality of life, in order to develop a new paradigm of incremental PD.

The primary outcome is change of residual kidney function, and the secondary outcomes include mortality, peritonitis-free survival, health-related quality of life, volume status, adequacy of small molecular solute clearance, and glucose exposure to dialysate.

Seventy-two eligible incident PD patients will be enrolled and randomly assigned to either the experimental or the control group in a ration of 1:1. Patients of the experimental group initiate PD with once daily exchange of 2-liter icodextrin dialysate, while those of the control group initiate PD with 2 to 3 exchanges of 2-liter glucose-based dialysate per day. All the enrolled patients will be prospectively followed up for 48 weeks. During the follow-up, the dose of dialysis would be incremental increased by adding exchange of glucose-based solution as required to accommodate for decline of RKF when at least one of the following indications is met: (1) clinical manifestations of uremia due to insufficient small solute clearance; (2) fluid overload which could not be corrected by salt and water intake restriction, increasing glucose concentration of dialysate, and administration of diuretics.

Residual kidney function, urine volume, peritoneal ultrafiltration, biochemical parameters, dialysate glucose exposure, volume status (measured by bioimpedence), and solute clearance are measured at baseline, and 24 and 48 weeks after recruitment, and are compared between groups. Quality of life is evaluated at baseline and 48 weeks by Kidney Disease Quality of Life-Short Form (KDQoL-SF) questionnaire, and are compared between two groups. Peritonitis rate for both groups are calculated and peritonitis-free survivals are compared. Differences in outcomes are evaluated by t test, Mann-Whitney test, or log-rank test where appropriate.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Single daily icodextrin exchange groupExperimentalFor incident peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients assigned to the experimental arm, PD is initiated with single daily exchange of 2-liter icodextrin-based dialysis solution. The daily dwell time ranges from 8-24 hours per day, depending on the patient's clinical conditions. Additional exchange(s) of glucose-based dialysis solution will be added to increase uremic toxins and fluid removal if necessary during the follow-up.

Conventional PD groupActive comparatorFor incident peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients assigned to this arm, PD is initiated with 2 to 3 exchanges of 2-liter glucose-based solution. The daily dwell time ranges from 8-24 hours per day, depending on the patient's clinical conditions.

What is being measured

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

  1. Residual kidney function

    Change of residual kidney function in 48 weeks after PD initiation

    Measured: Up to 48 weeks after recruitment

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Mortality

    The endpoint was death. The censored events include transfer to permanent hemodialysis, recovery of renal function, loss to follow-up, transfer to other dialysis centers, or to the end of study.

    Measured: Up to 48 weeks after recruitment

  2. Peritonitis-free survival

    The endpoint was first episode of PD-related peritonitis. The censored events were death, transfer to permanent hemodialysis, recovery of renal function, loss to follow-up, transfer to other dialysis centers, or to the end of study.

    Measured: Up to 48 weeks after recruitment

  3. Health-related quality of life

    Change of health-related quality of life assessed using Kidney Disease Quality of Life-Short Form in 48 weeks after recruitment. The form generates a score of 0 to 100, which represents better quality of life by a higher value.

    Measured: Up to 48 weeks after recruitment

  4. Volume status

    Change of volume status (Overhydration assessed by Bioelectric Impedance Analysis, etc.) in 48 weeks after recruitment

    Measured: Up to 48 weeks after recruitment

  5. Adequacy of small molecular solute clearance

    Change of weekly Kt/V and clearance of creatinine assessed using standard methods in 48 weeks after recruitment

    Measured: Up to 48 weeks after recuritment

  6. glucose exposure to dialysate

    change of glucose exposure to dialysate in 48 weeks after PD initiation

    Measured: Up to 48 weeks after recuritment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Single daily icodextrin exchange and Conventional PD group in people with Peritoneal Dialysis Complication and Residual Kidney Function, run by RenJi Hospital.

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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Nov 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Hao Yan, MD. (0086-13816588689, dryanhao@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Residual kidney function (time frame: Up to 48 weeks after recruitment). 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 8 Nov 2023.
