Pharmacokinetic Study of Aztreonam-Avibactam in Severe Renal Impairment

This Phase 1 study is being conducted to evaluate the effect of severe renal impairment on the PK, safety and tolerability of Aztreonam-Avibactam. Results from this study along with previous renal impairment data from each of the Aztreonam-Avibactam components will be used to confirm the proposed dosing adjustment in severe renal impairment which was based on modelling/simulation.

Collection of Samples From Pregnant Women for the Evaluation of Preeclampsia (Pre-E) Biomarkers

Preeclampsia (Pre-E) is a hypertensive disease of pregnancy with multi-system involvement that usually occurs in the second half of pregnancy. Pre-E occurs in 5% to 7% of U.S. pregnancies, and is the third-leading cause of U.S. maternal death. Improvements to the current diagnostic paradigm have been evaluated. However, no stand-alone diagnostic method has emerged that more accurately identifies women at risk for preeclampsia, warranting improvements in diagnosing Pre-E. This sample collection study will obtain serum and urine samples from pregnant women who present with clinical signs, symptoms, or conditions contributing to the suspicion of Pre-E. Samples will be used to evaluate and validate the performance of an assay intended to aid in assessing the risk of Pre-E.

Study of 2 Modalities of Dialysis and Nutrition on the Nutritional Status of Malnourished Chronic Renal Disease Patients

Describe the impact of dialysis by high permeability and adsorbent membrane (PEPA®) associated with oral nutritional supplementation on the nutritional status of malnourished chronic end-stage renal disease patients dependent on intradialytic parenteral nutrition.

Collection of Data of Ceftobiprole Treated Patients: Comparison of Patients With and Without Certain Diseases

In this observational study, data from patients treated with the antibiotic ceftobiprole in the past will be collected. The sponsor of the study is Correvio International Sárl, based in Switzerland. Correvio has committed to the health authorities to obtain further information on possible side effects especially in patients suffering from impaired liver or renal function or immune system deficiency and compare these effects to the ones observed in patients without these health problems. Patient data are collected from historic patient charts, patients will not be treated for the purpose of this data collection. All efforts are being made to capture the data of all patients who meet the inclusion criteria and have received at least one dose of ceftobiprole since this drug was first prescribed at the site.

The Safety and Efficacy of Micro-energy Ultrasound in the Treatment of Renal Insufficiency After Renal Transplantation

The safety and efficacy of micro-energy ultrasound in the treatment of renal insufficiency after renal transplantation.

Start: May 2020

Renal Allograft Tolerance Through Mixed Chimerism (Belatacept)

This study will examine the safety and effectiveness of a combination kidney and bone marrow transplant from a haplo-identical related donor. An investigational medication and other treatments will be given prior to and after the transplant to help protect the transplanted kidney from being attacked by the body's immune system

Start: February 2015

Clinical Study of POSS-PCU Vascular Grafts for Vascular Access

This study evaluates the safety and performance of a new vascular graft made of POSS-PCU as a vascular access conduit for haemodialysis. 30 patients requiring access for dialysis will be enrolled and monitored at regular intervals for 18 months.

Start: April 2021

Slow and Low Start of a Tacrolimus Once Daily Immunosuppressive Regimen

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate non-inferiority of an advagraf based immunosuppressive regimen with slower dose tapering and lower starting dose of Advagraf compared with a standard Advagraf-based immunosuppressive regimen in de novo renal transplantation. Non inferiority will be assessed by a combined study endpoint consisting of the development of biopsy-proven rejection of BANFF class Ia or higher and/or graft loss and/or patient death within the first six months after renal transplantation.

Start: September 2014

Collection of Whole Blood Samples for the Evaluation of Preeclampsia (Pre-E) Biomarkers From Pregnant Women

Whole blood sample procurement study from pregnant women with signs and symptoms of Preeclampsia.

Start: October 2018

High Resolution Imaging of Retinal Vessels as a Biomarker of Cardiovascular Disease in Patients With Renal Insufficiency - RI

The objectives are to better understand, in the dialysis patient, the relationships between microvascular morphometry and cardiovascular events, survival, arterial hypertension, the pathology responsible for renal failure, the age of dialysis and metabolic parameters. The investigator team also want to better understand the relationship between the diameter of small arteries and parameters such as hypertension, the pathology that causes kidney failure, the age of dialysis, the use of VKA or EPO, metabolic parameters (HbA1c, NFS, reticulocytes, BNP, lipid balance, phosphocalcic balance).

Start: April 2018

Safety and Clinical Outcomes With Amniotic and Umbilical Cord Tissue Therapy for Numerous Medical Conditions

To determine the safety and efficacy of Amniotic and Umbilical Cord Tissue for the treatment of the following condition categories: Orthopedic, Neurologic, Urologic, Autoimmune, Renal, Cardiac and Pulmonary Conditions. The hypotheses are that the treatments are not only extremely safe, but also statistically beneficial for all conditions. Outcomes will be determined by numerous valid outcome instruments that compile general quality of life information along with condition-specific information as well.

Renal Function Post Cardioversion for Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia which requires electrical cardioversion in many patients in order to regain sinus rhythm. In a previous retrospective study a complication of acute renal failure was found in 17% of the patients after cardioversion.(The incidence and prognosis of renal dysfunction following cardioversion of atrial fibrillation. Helman Y,...Gilon D et al:Cardiology 2013;124(3);184-9.) Another complication previously described after cardioversion is pulmonary edema. In this prospective study the investigators aim to evaluate the risk of acute renal failure post cardioversion. In addition the investigators would like to evaluate hemodynamic changes, fluid balance and sodium levels in patients post cardioversion as a potential mechanism for both acute renal failure and pulmonary edema post cardioversion. In order to assess hemodynamic changes the investigators will use a non-invasive FDA approved device called NICaS (Non-Invasive Cardiac System). This system calculates cardiac output, cardiac index and peripheral vascular resistance in a non-invasive, fast and accurate way.

Preserve-Transplant Study

The aim of this study is to test if alkali treatment will preserve kidney graft function and diminish the progression of chronic kidney disease in renal transplant patients. Additionally the underlying mechanisms of nephrotoxicity of metabolic acidosis will be investigated in this cohort. This study is a multi-center, prospective, randomized, single-blind (patient), placebo-controlled interventional trial to test the superiority of alkali treatment in comparison to placebo on preservation of kidney function in 300 kidney transplant recipients. The duration of the study will be 2 years for the individual participant. The patients will be randomized into 2 arms: intervention arm (sodium hydrogen carbonate, product: Nephrotrans®) and placebo arm (placebo comparator). Several studies in CKD (chronic kidney disease) patients have shown that alkali therapy slows progression of CKD.

HaemoDYNAMICs in Primary and Secondary Hypertension

The primary aim of the present study was to examine the haemodynamic changes in primary hypertension and secondary hypertension (renal diseases, endocrine diseases, obesity-associated hypertension) with a non-invasive haemodynamic measurement protocol utilizing radial pulse wave analysis and whole-body impedance cardiography in both supine position and during head-up tilt. For comparison, haemodynamics of subjects with chronic fatigue syndrome will also be recorded.
