This research will have as aim to look at progression or decrease of vascular calcification in dialysis population with use of different phosphate binders. There is a possibility that differect phosphate binders bind vitamin K in a different way in…
Monitoring and evaluation of the Dutch guideline for treatment of aHUS in children and adults during two years.
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 primary objective of this trial is to evaluate and describe the long-term safety of tolvaptan.
PRINCIPAL OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether sequential therapy with tacrolimus for 9 months (6 months of full therapy and 3 months of tapering doses) followed by a dose of RTX leads to a greater increase in the proportion of primary MN patients with…
Primary objective: To compare the anti-hypertensive response to dietary salt restriction with the anti-hypertensive response to the diuretics hydrochlorothiazide/amiloride in patients with CKD stages 3 or 4. Secondary objectives: * To analyze the…
Assess if CIN prophylaxis for CTA and a TAVI procedure with a 1 -hour sodium bicarbonate protocol is non-inferior in terms of decline in eGFR and serum creatinine level to the 24 hour saline protocol. in pre-operative screening for TAVI and actual…
To evalute the efficacy of rituximab in comparison to continued corticosteroid treatment in ipatients with diopathic nephrotic syndrome unresponsive to 8 weeks of high dose prednisolone.
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 (…
A better understanding on the individual response to different albuminuria lowering drugs and a better understanding why these drugs, of which some are developed for another indication, may help to tailor optimal therapy. Therefore in this study…
The purpose of this clinical study is to provide confirmation of the clinical safety and performance of the CINCOR* System in removing contrast in patients at risk of developing CIN who are undergoing percutaneous coronary procedures.
To assess the impact of 7 daily subcutaneous gifts of GH on circulating Klotho levels in human sugjects with CKD stage III and healthy age-matched controls.
First, to demonstrate whether Lanreotide attenuates progression of the renal phenotype in ADPKD patients as measured by change in rate of renal function decline and change in renal volume. Second, to demonstrate whether Lanreotide modifies…
The main of objectives are to study the effect of the start of dialysis treatment (hemodialysis and peritoneal transplantation), on selected cardiovascular, nutritional parameters as well as physical activity. Secondly, a differentiation will be…
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…
Identify and characterize factors which predict rapid progression toward, or higher frequency of, clinically relevant morbidities in ADPKD.
Aim of this study proposal· To establish whether oral phosphorus binding is able to reduce FGF23 levels in patients with CKD stage 3.· To evaluate if a reduction of serum phosphate and FGF23 improves vascular function as measured by pulse-wave-…
The aim of the study is to evaluate the safety of the Flex catheter and the effect of the renal denervation on blood pressure.
Based on the positive effects of Celecoxib on ultrafiltration and peritoneal injury during PD in rats, we would like to propose a pilot study using Celecoxib in PD-patients. In this pilot study we will investigate whether the Cox2 inhibitor…
The primary objective is to study the effect of renal denervation on blood pressure in patients with uncontrolled hypertension 6 months after denervation. We hypothesize that there will be a substantial decrease in systolic blood pressure after…
