About this study

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether the integration of URIKI, a connected urine test strip and in vitro diagnostic medical device, can improve the nutritional management of patients with stage 4 or 5 chronic kidney disease (CKD) living at home. The primary purpose is to assess whether URIKI can support dietary monitoring and optimize dietitians' workload through remote collection of urinary and nutrition-related data.

The main question it aims to answer is:

Read more

Does the integration of URIKI improve the efficiency of dietitians' work in the nutritional follow-up of patients with stage 4 or 5 chronic kidney disease?

Participants will:

Receive a URIKI kit at home, including a portable reader, urine test strips, and access to the My URIKI mobile application.

Perform one urine measurement per day at home for 10 consecutive days using the URIKI device.

Enter nutrition- and health-related information into the application, including meal photographs or descriptions, hydration information, and responses to brief questionnaires.

Receive remote support for installation and use of the device if needed. Have their urinary measurements reviewed by authorized healthcare professionals.

Receive a personalized dietary assessment and nutritional feedback from the hospital medical team and/or IKI dietitians through the My URIKI application.

Complete patient experience questionnaires at study entry and at the end of participation.

The expected duration of participation is up to 30 days. Approximately 450 patients with stage 4 or 5 chronic kidney disease will be enrolled in nephrology centers across France.

  • URIKI Digital Urinary Monitoring SystemDevice

    Also called My URIKI

    URIKI is a digital in vitro diagnostic system designed to support nutritional assessment in patients with stage 4 or 5 chronic kidney disease. The intervention includes connected urine test strips, a portable reader, the My URIKI mobile application, and a secure healthcare professional platform. Participants perform urine measurements at home once daily for 10 consecutive days and enter nutrition- and hydration-related information into the application, including meal information and patient-reported outcomes. Urinary biomarker results and patient-reported data are transmitted to authorized healthcare professionals and used to support nutritional assessment and personalized dietary follow-up. The intervention is delivered in addition to routine nephrology and dietetic care and is evaluated as part of the implementation of URIKI within the chronic kidney disease nutritional care pathway.

Study groups in NCT07746037
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
single armExperimentalThis is a single-arm, before-and-after interventional study evaluating the implementation of URIKI within the nutritional care pathway of patients with stage 4 or 5 chronic kidney disease in routine clinical practice. Participants receive standard nephrology and dietetic care supplemented by the URIKI system, which includes connected urine test strips, a portable reader, the My URIKI mobile application, and a healthcare professional platform. Participants perform daily home urine measurements for 10 days and provide nutrition- and hydration-related information through the application. Outcomes collected after URIKI implementation are compared with data from a 6 months pre-intervention period representing conventional care without URIKI.
Receives: Device: URIKI Digital Urinary Monitoring System

What is being measured

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

  1. Before-after mean duration of dietitian consultations

    Difference in the mean duration of dietitian consultations dedicated to nutritional assessment per patient, comparing the pre-intervention period (conventional care) and the post-intervention period (care integrating URIKI).

    Measured: Outcome compared between the 6-month pre-implementation and 6-month post-implementation periods of URIKI system

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Carbon footprint of the care pathway

    Estimated change in the carbon footprint of the CKD nutritional care pathway before and after URIKI implementation.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  2. Renal outcome

    Change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) slope.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  3. Biological outcome

    Change in urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR)/proteinuria.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  4. Patient satisfaction

    Patient satisfaction score

    Measured: Around Day 30 following URIKI use

  5. Patient engagement

    Therapeutic education program adherence score

    Measured: Around Day 30 following URIKI use

  6. Patient digital acceptability

    Digital solution acceptability score

    Measured: Around Day 30 following URIKI use

  7. Healthcare professional quality of working life

    Quality of working life (QWL) score among healthcare professionals, particularly dietitians.

    Measured: Upon enrollment of the first participant by the healthcare professional and at month 12 (After completion of participant enrollment).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing URIKI Digital Urinary Monitoring System in people with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 2 sites in France.

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 9 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Aug 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in France. 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 the primary outcome measure?

Before-after mean duration of dietitian consultations (time frame: Outcome compared between the 6-month pre-implementation and 6-month post-implementation periods of URIKI system). 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.
