Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: This is a retrospective observational study using data from Phases 1 through 7 (1996-2023) of the DOPPS, a multinational, prospective cohort study of in-center HD patients across more than 20 countries. DOPPS collects standardized data on demographics, comorbidities, laboratory values, treatments, hospitalizations, and mortality, as well as many validated PROs. To ensure national representativeness and reduce selection bias, DOPPS uses a stratified random sampling approach to select dialysis facilities and patients within each participating country. Regional representation includes Europe, Japan, North America, China, Oceania, and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC).

Who may be able to join

  • Age ≥ 18 years at the time of enrollment
  • Receiving in-center HD treatment at a participating dialysis facility
  • Able to provide informed consent, if required by local regulations or ethics boards

About this study

This study leverages the global Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study (DOPPS) database to generate real-world evidence on the burden of IgAN in patients who progress to kidney failure and require maintenance hemodialysis (HD). We will first aim to understand prevalence of IgAN in a global cohort of in-center HD patients. The second and third objectives aim to quantify the patient burden of IgAN using a two-step approach: first, a detailed single-arm evaluation of outcomes within the IgAN population; second, a matched comparison to the broader HD population.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of IgAN - IgA Nephropathy, run by Arbor Research Collaborative for Health.

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 3 inclusion and 1 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 26 May 2026. 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?

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?

IgAN (time frame: 1996-2023). 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 26 May 2026.
