Kidney Disease clinical trials at UC Davis

7 in progress, 3 open to eligible people

  • DMX-200 in Patients With FSGS Who Are Receiving an ARB

    open to eligible people ages 12-80

    DMX-200 (repagermanium) is a C-C chemokine receptor type 2 (CCR2) inhibitor that, when administered concurrently with an ARB, is designed to inhibit recruitment of monocytes implicated in the inflammatory chemokine environment of chronic disease. The purpose of this pivotal randomized double-blind study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of DMX-200 120 mg twice daily (BID) compared with placebo over a treatment period of 104 weeks in adult patients with FSGS who are being treated with an ARB. Given the rarity of the disease and the similarities between adults and pediatric patients with FSGS, Dimerix will also investigate the efficacy and safety of DMX 200 in adolescents aged 12 to 17 years. The double-blind period will be followed by an open-label extension (OLE) which aims to assess the long-term efficacy and safety of DMX 200 for up to 2 additional years.

  • Renal Impairment Study for Oral EC5026

    open to eligible people ages 55 years and up

    The goal of this Phase 1 clinical trial is to assess single dose pharmacokinetics of oral EC5026 in a population with chronic kidney disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. To determine if the PK of a single 8 mg dose of EC5026, administered orally, in adult participants with varying severity of CKD differs from age-matched healthy participants with normal kidney function. 2. To determine if a single 8 mg dose of EC5026, administered orally, in adult participants with varying severity of CKD is safe and well tolerated. Researchers will compare a single 8 mg dose of oral across participants with varying degrees of kidney function impairment (either normal kidney function, or stage 3b chronic kidney disease [CKD], or state 4/5 CKD). Participants will be asked to take a single oral dose of EC5026 and will be monitored with PK laboratory assessments and safety assessments (including physical exams, vital signs, electrocardiograms, and others).

  • Sodium Bicarbonate and Mitochondrial Energetics in Persons With CKD

    “Volunteer for research and contribute to discoveries that may improve health care for you, your family, and your community!”

    open to eligible people ages 21-85

    Skeletal muscle metabolic health is critical for mobility and an underrecognized target of metabolic acidosis in chronic kidney disease. Impaired muscle mitochondrial metabolism underlies poor physical endurance increasing the risk of mobility disability. The proposed project will use precise in vivo tools to study the pathophysiology of poor physical endurance in a clinical trial treating metabolic acidosis among persons living with chronic kidney disease.

  • CoQ10 and Exercise for Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Advance Kidney Disease

    “Volunteer for research and contribute to discoveries that may improve health care for you, your family, and your community!”

    Sorry, not currently recruiting here

    Frailty and sarcopenia are modifiable risk factors for morbidity and mortality in patients with ESRD. Exercise is the recommended intervention to prevent frailty and sarcopenia, however, many clinical trials have shown limited clinical improvement in muscle mass and physical function. We propose that mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the deterrents to the effectiveness of the exercise. We plan to evaluate the additive effect of HIIT and CoQ10, a mitochondrial-targeted therapy, on mitochondrial function and physical performance. Understanding the interplay among CoQ10, exercise, and mitochondrial function will identify novel mechanisms to improve the efficiency of exercise. This will also serve to prevent frailty, sarcopenia, and muscle dysfunction in patients with ESRD.
