Impact on Neurocognitive Performance in Children, Adolescents and Young Adults of Chronic Kidney Disease and its Therapy: A Feasibility Study.

The primary objective of the current study is to determine the relevance, feasibility and strain for patients of the INPACT protocol.

An international, randomised, open label trial comparing a rituxmab based regimen with a standard cyclophosphamide/azathioprine regimen in the treatment of active, 'generalised' ANCA associated vasculitis

To assess the rates of preliminary response and sustained remission of AASV following rituximab (on the basis of former studies, 86% sustained remission expected with rituximab compared to 75% in control group).To assess safety of a rituximab…

Anticoagulation with nadroparin in continuous venovenous hemofiltration (CVVH): extracorporeal clearance and systemic effects of nadroparin

Aim of the present study is to determine · whether and to what extent nadroparin is excreted by CVVH · whether the drug accumulates during CVVH as measured by anti-Xa activity and endogenous thrombine potential (ETP)· whether clearance of nadroparin…

The effect of proactive versus reactive treatment of hypotension on postoperative disability and outcome in surgical patients under anesthesia (PRETREAT): an adaptive, multicenter randomized controlled trial

The aim of this adaptive multicentre randomized controlled trial is to maintain patients at a target blood pressure level with a sufficient margin from the minimal acceptable blood pressure threshold of a MAP of 65 mmHg to reduce the incidence of…

Immunity to varicella-zoster virus in immunocompromised renal disease patients

More knowledge on immunity to VZV in these patient groups is necessary to be able to design preventive strategies to VZV infections in the future. To reach these goals, the proposed study is divided into two parts. The first part aims to determine…

The effects of FGF23 and Klotho on vascular calcification in end stage renal disease patients;

The goal of this study is to evaluate if serum FGF23 levels are directly related to cardiovascular calcification, measured as arterial stiffness with pulse wave velocity. The primary objective is to evaluate if elevated serum FGF23 and decreased…

REnal function after PULSatile blood flow during cardiopulmonary bypass in cardiac surgery

Does pulsatile blood flow during cardiopulmonary bypass lead to a reduction in the average increase in postoperative creatinine levels in patients with preoperative renal dysfunction when compared to non-pulsatile blood flow?

A 12-month randomized, multiple dose, open-label, study evaluating safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) and efficacy of an anti-CD40 monoclonal antibody, CFZ533, in combination with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and corticosteroids (CS), with and without tacrolimus (Tac), in de novo renal transplant recipients

Primary:Part 1: PK, PD and SafetyTo assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of multiple IV and SC doses of CFZ533 in combination with MMF, CS, and Tac (standard exposure) in de novo renal transplant patients over the treatment and…

Tacrolimus monotherapy in immunologically low-risk kidney transplant recipients: a pilot randomized-controlled study.

The primary objective of the main non-inferiority study is to determine the safety of TACmono starting nine months after kidney transplantation in immunologically low-risk patients in terms of BPAR-rate 15 months after transplantation compared to…

Within-patient variability in tacrolimus pharmacokinetics in renal transplant patients treated with different tacrolimus formulations.

The primary objective of this study is to investigate if the intra-patient variability in tacrolimus pharmacokinetics is reduced by switching patients from maintenance tacrolimus treatment with tacrolimus-Prograft to either Advagraf or to Envarsus.…
