										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This clinical trial is studying <b>end stage renal failure</b> in people who are waiting for a kidney transplant. The treatment being tested is <b>OM336</b>, given as a <b>subcutaneous injection</b> under the skin. The study also includes background medicines that may be used before treatment: <b>paracetamol</b>, <b>buclizine hydrochloride</b>, <b>codeine phosphate</b>, <b>valaciclovir</b>, <b>dexamethasone acetate</b>, and <b>diphenhydramine</b>. The purpose of the study is to see whether OM336 is safe and well tolerated and whether it can help reduce the immune response that can make kidney transplantation harder.</p>
<p>The study follows people over time while they receive OM336 and regular checkups. A dose is given, and then health is monitored for side effects and other changes related to the immune system. If a kidney transplant happens during the study, follow-up continues after the transplant to watch for safety and other changes. The study lasts for about 2 years after treatment starts for each person, with repeated visits during that period.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This study is being conducted to investigate how a certain type of medication works in people living with <b>Chronic Kidney Disease</b>, a condition where the kidneys do not work as well as they should. The research focuses on individuals undergoing <b>dialysis</b>, a medical procedure used to clean the blood when the kidneys can no longer do so on their own. The study examines how <b>SGLT2 inhibitors</b>, a class of drugs used to manage certain conditions, are distributed within the body&#8217;s tissues.</p>
<p>The medications involved include <b>canagliflozin</b>, which is taken as a tablet, and a special version called <b>18F-canagliflozin</b>. This second substance is a tracer used for <b>PET imaging</b>, a type of scan that allows doctors to see how substances move through the body. Participants will receive the medication through an <b>intravenous administration</b>, which means it is delivered directly into a vein through a needle. The study will also observe how these substances behave in patients with or without <b>residual diuresis</b>, which refers to the body&#8217;s remaining ability to produce urine.</p>

The research examines the effects of <b>patiromer</b>, a medication that binds to potassium in the body, compared to <b>placebo</b>. The purpose is to determine if this treatment allows patients to reduce or eliminate their dietary restrictions on potassium-rich foods without increasing the risk of having high potassium levels in their blood.</p>
<p>The medication being tested, <b>Veltassa</b>, comes as a powder that is mixed with liquid and taken by mouth. Patients will receive either Veltassa or placebo for three months while continuing their regular dialysis treatment. During this time, doctors will monitor the amount of potassium in patients&#8217; blood and assess whether they can safely include more potassium-containing foods in their diet.</p>
<p>The study will track several health factors, including changes in blood potassium levels, quality of life, and whether patients need additional treatments to manage their potassium levels. The research will also monitor if patients can better tolerate certain heart and blood pressure medications that are typically challenging to use in dialysis patients due to their effects on potassium levels.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The RELEASE study is a clinical trial examining reduced immunosuppression regimens for older adult kidney transplant recipients with <b>end-stage renal disease</b>. This is a serious condition where the kidneys no longer function well enough to meet the body&#8217;s needs, requiring either dialysis or kidney transplantation. The study compares a lower immunosuppression regimen to the standard treatment approach in people aged 70 and older who receive their first kidney transplant.</p>
<p>Immunosuppression medications are drugs that reduce the activity of the immune system to prevent rejection of the transplanted kidney. However, these medications can have significant side effects, particularly in older adults. The purpose of this study is to determine if a reduced immunosuppression regimen can be as effective as the standard approach in terms of patient survival and transplant function.</p>
<p>Participants in this study will be randomly assigned to either the standard or reduced immunosuppression treatment group and followed for 12 months after their kidney transplant. During this time, researchers will monitor various outcomes including patient survival with functioning graft, complications, infections such as <b>CMV</b> (cytomegalovirus) and <b>BK virus</b>, and kidney function. The study will also assess quality of life measures and frailty before transplant and at the end of the 12-month period.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This clinical trial is focused on studying <i>End-Stage Kidney Disease</i>, a condition where the kidneys can no longer function properly on their own. The trial will use a treatment called <i>PolyCore</i>, which is a special solution designed for <i>peritoneal dialysis</i>. Peritoneal dialysis is a treatment that uses the lining of the abdomen to filter waste from the blood when the kidneys are not working well. <i>PolyCore</i> contains several substances, including <i>levocarnitine</i>, <i>magnesium chloride hexahydrate</i>, <i>sodium chloride</i>, <i>calcium chloride dihydrate</i>, <i>lactic acid</i>, <i>xylitol</i>, and <i>polydextrose</i>.</p>
<p>The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of <i>PolyCore</i> in patients who are starting peritoneal dialysis. The study will monitor participants for any side effects and changes in their health. Participants will receive the <i>PolyCore</i> solution through a process called <i>intraperitoneal use</i>, which means it is administered into the abdominal cavity. The study will involve regular check-ups where doctors will examine the participants, check their vital signs, and perform blood tests to ensure their safety.</p>
<p>Throughout the study, participants will have their kidney function and overall health closely monitored. This includes regular assessments of their blood chemistry, body weight, and the effectiveness of the dialysis treatment. The study aims to gather information on how well <i>PolyCore</i> works and how safe it is for people with <i>End-Stage Kidney Disease</i> who are undergoing peritoneal dialysis. The trial is expected to continue until 2027, providing valuable insights into the treatment of this serious condition.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This clinical trial is focused on studying the effects of a treatment for patients with <b>end-stage renal disease</b> who are undergoing <b>kidney transplantation</b>. The study will compare the use of a solution called <b>mannitol</b> with normal saline in individuals who have received a kidney from a brain-dead donor. The main goal is to determine if mannitol can help improve the success of kidney transplants by reducing a condition known as <b>delayed graft function</b>, which is when the new kidney takes longer than expected to start working properly.</p>
<p>Participants in the study will receive either mannitol or a placebo, which is a substance with no active treatment, through an intravenous infusion. The study will monitor how quickly the transplanted kidney begins to function and will also look at other factors such as the occurrence of <b>acute kidney graft rejection</b> within three months and the kidney&#8217;s performance at different time points, including seven days, one month, and three months after the transplant.</p>
<p>The trial aims to provide valuable information on whether mannitol can be a beneficial treatment option for improving outcomes in kidney transplant patients. The study will be conducted over a period of time, with participants being closely monitored to assess the effectiveness and safety of the treatment. This research could potentially lead to better management strategies for patients undergoing kidney transplantation, ultimately improving their quality of life.</p>

Some participants may receive a placebo, which looks like the medication but does not contain any active ingredients. The study will last for a period of up to 72 weeks, during which participants will take the medication orally, meaning they will swallow it in the form of a tablet.</p>
<p>The main goal is to determine if <i>Apixaban</i> can reduce the risk of having an ischemic stroke, which is a type of stroke caused by a blood clot blocking a blood vessel in the brain, or systemic embolism, which is when a blood clot travels to other parts of the body. The study will also monitor for any serious side effects, such as bleeding in the brain or other major bleeding events. Participants will be closely monitored throughout the study to ensure their safety and to gather information on the effectiveness of the treatment.</p>
