To evaluate the efficacy of 250ml 1.4% sodium bicarbonate versus hypotone saline hydration prior to TAVI in patients with CKD to prevent CIN.
Here, we postulate that the balance between the effect of belatacept on regulatory T-cell function and the relative insensitivity of memory T-cells for belatacept leads to donor-specific alloreactivity. We plan to study the peripheral CD28-dependent…
The main objective of this study is to assess whether ICD therapy in dialysis patients reduces sudden (arrhythmogenic) cardiac death. The first secondary end point is to compare total mortality death between the two groups. An other is to evaluate…
The main objective of this study is to investigate whether kidney transplant recipient suffering from a tacrolimus-induced tremor can benefit from switching from conventional tacrolimus to LCPT, a new extended release preparation of tacrolimus (…
Primary objective: to compare the effect two immunosupressive therapy regimens on GFR estimated by iohexol clearance at week 52 post kidney transplantationSecundary objective: to compare the safety and efficacy profiles of the two immunosupressive…
To study whether the existing eGFR cut-off levels for preventive hydration of < 45 ml/min or between 45-60 ml/min in combination of other comorbidity at risk of CIN can be safely lowered to an eGFR < 30 ml/min, regarsless of the…
The aim of this study is to investigate if conversion of tacrolimus-based immunosuppression to everolimus-based immunosuppression results in preservation of renal function as compared to continued tacrolimus-based immunosuppression. Apart from renal…
The primary objective of this study is to compare Arm 1 with Arm 2 with regard to incidence of new onset diabetes Mellitus as per the American Diabetic Association criteria at any point up to 24 weeks after kidney transplantation.The secondary…
The aims of the current study are two-fold. First we will investigate whether a CYP3A5 genotype-based tacrolimus dosing strategy will result in improved clinical outcomes as compared with a standard tacrolimus dosing regimen based on bodyweight.…
-To investigate whether a short-term treatment (3 months) with benfotiamine in diabetic nephropathy patients leads to a reduction in urinary excretion of β2-microglobulin and albumin.-To investigate whether short-term treatment (3 months) with…
Main study:Primary objective: What are the long-term effects (i.e. after 8-week drug exposure) of the GLP-1RA versus a single dose prandial insulin onrenal hemodynamics (glomerular filtration rate/ effective renal plasma flow in basal insulin-…
Primary objective: What are the long-term effects (i.e. after 8-week drug exposure) of the DPP-4i linagliptin versus the SU derivative glimepiride on fasting and postprandial renal hemodynamics (glomerular filtration rate (GFR)/ effective renal…
To examine the effects of mono- and combination therapy with linagliptin and empagliflozine on renal hemodynamics
Primary Objective is to test the feasibility of a strategy in which patient preference, after a short exposure to treatment options, determines the choice for a specific phosphate binder and whether this strategy will improve patient*s satisfaction.…
To gain more knowledge about the effects of SGLT2 inhibition on renal hemodynamics and the underlying mechanisms.
Primary objectiveIn subjects with T2DM receiving standard of care but with inadequate glycemic control and at elevatedrisk of cardiovascular (CV) events to assess the effect of canagliflozin compared to placebo onprogression of albuminuria.Secondary…
Primary Objective:* To demonstrate the safety of intravenous (i.v.) iodinated iso-osmolar iodixanol (Visipaque* Injection 320 mgI/mL) usage in contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) for CKD stage III/IV patients by evaluating the incidence of…
