										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This study examines people with <b>atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease</b>, <b>chronic kidney disease</b>, and systemic inflammation. Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is a condition where fatty deposits build up in the arteries, which can affect blood flow to the heart, brain, or limbs. Chronic kidney disease means the kidneys are not working as well as they should, which affects their ability to filter waste from the blood. Systemic inflammation refers to widespread inflammation in the body that can be measured through blood tests. The study compares the effects of <b>ziltivekimab</b>, an experimental medication given as an injection under the skin once a month, with <b>placebo</b>. Both treatments are given in addition to the usual care that patients receive for their conditions.</p>
<p>The purpose of the study is to see if ziltivekimab works better than placebo in reducing the risk of serious heart-related problems in people who have both cardiovascular disease and kidney disease along with signs of inflammation in their body. The main focus is on preventing major cardiovascular events, which include death from heart-related causes, <b>non-fatal heart attack</b>, and <b>non-fatal stroke</b>. A heart attack occurs when blood flow to part of the heart muscle is blocked, while a stroke happens when blood flow to part of the brain is interrupted.</p>
<p>During the study, participants will receive either ziltivekimab or placebo through regular injections while continuing their standard medical treatment. The study will track various health outcomes over time, including heart attacks, strokes, heart-related deaths, hospital admissions for heart problems, and changes in kidney function. Researchers will also monitor changes in inflammation markers in the blood, heart function measurements, and overall health status. The study will measure how the kidneys are working by looking at blood test results that show the filtering ability of the kidneys and the amount of protein in the urine, which can indicate kidney damage.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This study is looking at <b>chronic kidney disease</b> and <b>type 2 diabetes</b> in people who are living with overweight or obesity. Chronic kidney disease is a condition where the kidneys gradually lose their ability to work properly over time. Type 2 diabetes is a condition where the body does not use insulin properly, leading to high blood sugar levels. The study will test a combination treatment called CagriSema, which contains two medicines: <b>cagrilintide</b> and <b>semaglutide</b>. These medicines are given together as an injection under the skin once a week. The study will compare this combination treatment to cagrilintide alone, semaglutide alone, and placebo to see which works best.</p>
<p>The purpose of this study is to find out if CagriSema can improve markers that show how chronic kidney disease is progressing in people with type 2 diabetes who are living with overweight or obesity. Participants may also be taking other medicines during the study, such as <b>enalapril maleate</b>, <b>dapagliflozin propanediol</b>, or <b>finerenone</b>, which are used to help protect the kidneys and manage related conditions. The study will measure changes in urine protein levels, kidney function, body weight, waist size, blood sugar control, and blood pressure. It will also track any side effects or health problems that occur during treatment.</p>
<p>During the study, participants will receive their assigned treatment for up to 35 weeks. They will attend regular visits where measurements will be taken and blood and urine samples will be collected to check how well the treatment is working and to monitor safety. The study team will look at changes from the start of the study to the end of treatment to understand the effects of each treatment option.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This study is looking at <b>chronic kidney disease</b> in children and teenagers. Chronic kidney disease is a condition where the kidneys are damaged and cannot filter blood as well as they should. The study will test a medicine called <b>empagliflozin</b>, which is also known by the brand name <b>Jardiance</b>. Some participants will receive empagliflozin tablets, while others will receive <b>placebo</b> tablets that look the same but contain no active medicine. The medicine is taken by mouth as film-coated tablets.</p>
<p>The purpose of the study is to learn how empagliflozin works in the bodies of children and teenagers with chronic kidney disease, to see if it is safe for them, and to find out if it helps their kidney disease. The study will measure how much of the medicine gets into the blood, check for any unwanted effects, and see if the medicine helps improve kidney function. The study will look at changes in protein levels in the urine, which is one way to measure how well the kidneys are working, and changes in how well the kidneys filter waste from the blood.</p>
<p>The study has two parts. In the first part, participants will be randomly assigned to receive either empagliflozin or placebo for 24 weeks, and neither the participants nor the doctors will know which treatment they are receiving. After this period, there will be an open-label extension where all participants will know they are receiving empagliflozin. The total treatment period can last up to 72 weeks. During the study, participants will continue taking their regular medicines for kidney disease, which may include medicines that help protect the kidneys. Regular check-ups will be done to monitor the participants&#8217; health and kidney function throughout the study.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This study is looking at <b>Alport syndrome</b>, a condition that affects the kidneys and can lead to <b>chronic kidney disease</b>. Alport syndrome is an inherited disorder that damages the tiny blood vessels in the kidneys, causing them to work less effectively over time. This can result in protein leaking into the urine, a condition called albuminuria. The study will test a medication called <b>BAY 3401016</b>, which is given as a <b>solution for injection</b>. Some participants will receive BAY 3401016 while others will receive placebo. The purpose of the study is to assess the effect of BAY 3401016 on albuminuria in participants with Alport syndrome.</p>
<p>The study is designed as a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with an extension phase. This means that participants will be assigned by chance to receive either the study medication or placebo, and neither the participants nor the doctors will know which treatment is being given during the main part of the study. The study will involve adults between 18 and 45 years of age who have been diagnosed with Alport syndrome. Participants will need to have certain levels of kidney function and protein in their urine to take part. They will also need to be taking certain medications for their kidneys, specifically medicines known as ACE inhibitors or ARBs, which are commonly used to help protect the kidneys.</p>
<p>During the study, measurements will be taken to see how the treatment affects the amount of protein in the urine over time. The main focus will be on measuring the ratio of protein in the urine at specific time points during the treatment period, specifically at 16, 20, and 24 weeks. The study will also monitor participants for any unwanted effects or side effects that may occur during treatment. After the main treatment period, there will be an extension phase where participants may continue to be followed to gather more information about the long-term effects of the medication.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This study involves adults with <b>Type 1 Diabetes</b> and <b>Chronic Kidney Disease</b>. Type 1 Diabetes is a condition where the body does not produce insulin, a hormone needed to control blood sugar levels. Chronic Kidney Disease means the kidneys are not working as well as they should and have difficulty filtering waste from the blood. The study will use two medications: <b>dapagliflozin</b>, which is given as a 5 mg tablet taken by mouth, and <b>SC0062</b>, which is given as a capsule taken by mouth. Dapagliflozin is a medication that helps the kidneys remove extra sugar from the body through urine. SC0062 works by blocking certain receptors in the body that can affect kidney function and fluid balance.</p>
<p>The purpose of this study is to examine how dapagliflozin and SC0062 work together compared to SC0062 alone in reducing the amount of a protein called albumin in the urine. When kidneys are damaged, they may leak albumin into the urine, and measuring this can show how well the kidneys are functioning. The study will also look at changes in body weight, blood pressure, kidney filtering ability, and markers that indicate fluid retention in the body. Additionally, the study will monitor any side effects that occur during treatment with these medications.</p>
<p>This is a crossover study, which means participants will receive different treatment combinations during different periods of the study. Each treatment period will last for 8 weeks. During the study, participants will take either SC0062 alone or a combination of both dapagliflozin and SC0062. Participants will need to continue managing their diabetes with insulin and monitoring their blood sugar levels at home as they normally do. Throughout the study, regular check-ups will be conducted to measure urine albumin levels, kidney function, and overall health to see how the treatments are working.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This clinical trial is studying people who have <b>Chronic Kidney Disease</b> along with heart valve problems or other <b>Cardiovascular Disease</b> who need planned heart surgery. The study will test a treatment called <b>SP16</b>, which is an anti-inflammatory medication given as an injection under the skin. Some participants will receive <b>SP16</b> while others will receive placebo. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety of <b>SP16</b> and to see if it can prevent a serious complication called <b>Acute Kidney Injury</b> that can occur after heart surgery in people with existing kidney disease. During the surgery, a heart-lung-machine, also called <b>cardiopulmonary bypass</b>, will be used to temporarily take over the work of the heart and lungs.</p>
<p>The study will involve people with chronic kidney disease who are scheduled for heart surgery such as coronary artery bypass grafting (a procedure to improve blood flow to the heart), aortic valve surgery (repair or replacement of the valve between the heart and the main artery), mitral valve surgery (repair or replacement of the valve between the upper and lower chambers on the left side of the heart), or a combination of these procedures. Participants will receive the study medication or placebo before their surgery. After the surgery, they will be carefully monitored in the hospital to check their kidney function by measuring substances in their blood and urine. The medical team will watch for any side effects or complications, particularly during the first 72 hours after surgery.</p>
<p>The observation period will continue for about 90 days after the surgery. During this time, participants will have follow-up visits where doctors will check their kidney function, heart function using ultrasound imaging of the heart called <b>echocardiography</b>, and measure specific markers in the blood such as <b>NT-proBNP</b>, which indicates how well the heart is working. The study will track whether participants develop kidney injury after surgery, how severe it becomes, how long it takes for kidney function to return to normal, and whether any participants need dialysis, which is a treatment that filters the blood when the kidneys cannot do so properly. The medical team will also monitor oxygen levels in the blood and record any adverse events or serious health problems that occur throughout the study period.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This study involves people with <b>chronic kidney disease</b> who are not currently taking certain blood pressure medications that affect the kidneys. Chronic kidney disease is a condition where the kidneys gradually lose their ability to filter waste and excess fluid from the blood. The study will compare the effects of <b>finerenone</b>, which is also called <b>BAY 94-8862</b>, with placebo. Finerenone is a medication given as a film-coated tablet that is taken by mouth.</p>
<p>The purpose of the study is to find out if finerenone is better than placebo in reducing the amount of protein in the urine over six months. Protein in the urine is a sign that the kidneys are not working properly. The study will also look at the safety of finerenone by checking for side effects and monitoring potassium levels in the blood, as high potassium can be a concern with this type of medication.</p>
<p>Participants in this study will be randomly assigned to receive either finerenone or placebo for a treatment period that can last up to 175 days. During the study, participants will have regular check-ups where doctors will measure the protein levels in their urine and monitor their overall health. The study is designed to be double-blind, which means that neither the participants nor the doctors will know who is receiving finerenone and who is receiving placebo until the study is completed.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This clinical trial focuses on patients with <i>advanced chronic kidney disease</i> who have undergone a kidney transplant. The study aims to explore two different treatment approaches to prevent <i>cytomegalovirus (CMV)</i> infection, a common virus that can cause complications after a transplant. The treatments being studied include a combination of <i>tacrolimus</i> and <i>MTOR inhibitors</i> with anticipatory therapy, compared to tacrolimus and <i>mycophenolic acid</i> with universal prophylaxis. The goal is to determine which approach is more effective in preventing CMV infection in patients at high risk after their transplant.</p>
<p>Participants in the study will receive one of the two treatment combinations. The first group will take tacrolimus and MTOR inhibitors, while the second group will take tacrolimus and mycophenolic acid. Both groups will be monitored for their immune response to CMV before the transplant and at 15, 30, and 90 days after the transplant. The study will also track the presence of CMV infection or disease six months after the transplant to evaluate the effectiveness of each treatment approach.</p>
<p>The study will last until the end of 2026, with recruitment starting in mid-2025. Participants will be closely monitored throughout the study to ensure their safety and to gather data on the effectiveness of the treatments. The findings from this study could help improve the management of CMV infection in kidney transplant recipients, potentially leading to better outcomes for patients with advanced chronic kidney disease.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This clinical trial focuses on studying <i>chronic kidney disease</i> and <i>autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease</i>, which are conditions affecting the kidneys. The study uses a special type of imaging called <i>MRI</i> (magnetic resonance imaging) to look at changes in the kidneys&#8217; metabolism. The treatment involves an injection of a substance called <i>Hyperpolarized [1-13C]pyruvate</i>, which helps make the MRI images clearer and more detailed.</p>
<p>The purpose of the study is to understand how these kidney diseases change the way the kidneys process energy. By using the MRI with the special pyruvate injection, researchers hope to see differences in how the kidneys of healthy people and those with kidney disease work. This includes looking at how the kidneys produce certain substances like lactate and alanine, which are related to energy use in the body. The study will include healthy volunteers as well as patients with chronic kidney disease and polycystic kidney disease.</p>
<p>Participants in the study will receive the pyruvate injection and then undergo an MRI scan. This will help researchers see the metabolic changes in the kidneys. The study aims to find out if these changes are linked to other signs of kidney damage, such as fibrosis (scarring) and inflammation, which are often seen in kidney disease. The information gathered from this study could help improve understanding of these diseases and lead to better ways to diagnose and treat them in the future.</p>

The main goal is to see if patiromer can help reduce the amount of protein in the urine, which is a sign of kidney damage, and to see if it allows for an increase in the dose of RAAS-blocker medications.</p>
<p>In addition to monitoring protein levels in the urine, the study will also look at other factors such as blood pressure, potassium levels in the blood, and overall kidney function. The study will help determine if patiromer is a beneficial treatment option for people with CKD who are taking RAAS-blocker medications. The results of this study could provide important information for improving the care of patients with chronic kidney disease.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This clinical trial is focused on studying the effects of a medication called <i>dapagliflozin</i> on patients with severe <i>chronic kidney disease</i> (CKD). Chronic kidney disease is a long-term condition where the kidneys do not work as well as they should. The study will also look at how this medication affects heart health, specifically in terms of reducing the risk of heart failure and overall mortality, which means the risk of death from any cause.</p>
<p>The purpose of the study is to determine if <i>dapagliflozin</i> is more effective than a placebo in improving kidney and heart health outcomes. Participants in the study will be randomly assigned to receive either the medication or a placebo. The study will include patients with advanced CKD, those on dialysis, and kidney transplant recipients. The trial will monitor the time it takes for participants to experience kidney failure, hospitalization due to heart failure, or death from any cause.</p>
<p>Throughout the study, participants will take the medication or placebo orally, in the form of a film-coated tablet, for a period of up to 48 weeks. The study aims to provide valuable insights into whether <i>dapagliflozin</i> can help improve the health and quality of life for people with severe chronic kidney disease by potentially reducing the risk of kidney failure and heart-related issues.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This clinical trial is focused on studying the effects of a medication called <i>sodium zirconium cyclosilicate</i> on patients with <i>chronic kidney disease</i> (CKD) at stages 3b and 4. The medication is available in two forms: Lokelma 10 g and Lokelma 5 g, both as a powder for oral suspension. The purpose of the study is to see if a diet rich in potassium, which includes the use of sodium zirconium cyclosilicate as a potential rescue treatment, does not lead to an unacceptable increase in blood potassium levels.</p>
<p>Participants in the study will follow a potassium-rich diet, and the effects will be monitored over a period of six weeks. The study will compare the changes in blood potassium levels from the beginning to the end of the study. Additionally, the study will observe other health indicators such as blood pressure, kidney function, and quality of life. The study will also look at the effects on bowel movements and the occurrence of severe hyperkalemia, which is a condition where there is too much potassium in the blood.</p>
<p>The trial aims to ensure that the potassium-rich diet, along with the use of sodium zirconium cyclosilicate, is safe for patients with chronic kidney disease. The study will help understand if this approach can be a viable option for managing potassium levels in these patients without causing harm. The trial is expected to start recruiting participants in early 2024 and will continue until early 2025.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This clinical trial is focused on studying the effects of certain medications used after a kidney transplant, specifically in patients with <b>chronic kidney disease</b>. The medications being studied are <b>Tacrolimus</b> and <b>mycophenolate mofetil</b>. These drugs are commonly used to prevent the body from rejecting a new kidney after a transplant. The purpose of the study is to understand how these medications interact with the gut microbiota, which is the community of microorganisms living in the digestive tract, and how this interaction affects the way the body processes these drugs.</p>
<p>Participants in the study will receive either Tacrolimus or mycophenolate mofetil, or a combination of both, as part of their regular treatment after a kidney transplant. The study will observe changes in the gut microbiota and how these changes might influence the effectiveness and processing of the medications. The study will also involve monitoring the participants over a period of time to gather data on how the medications are absorbed and metabolized in the body.</p>
<p>The study aims to provide insights into the variability of how different patients respond to these immunosuppressant drugs, which are crucial for the success of kidney transplants. By understanding these differences, the study hopes to improve treatment plans and outcomes for future patients undergoing kidney transplants. Participants will be monitored closely throughout the study to ensure their safety and to collect necessary data for the research.</p>
