The Effect of Balance PD Solution on the Peritoneal Membrane in Patients on Automated Peritoneal Dialysis

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Chronic Renal Failure
Interventions
Drug: Solution B (balance PD solution)
Drug: Solution A (conventional PD solution)
Registration Number
NCT01753154
Lead Sponsor
Fresenius Medical Care Deutschland GmbH
Brief Summary

To investigate the biocompatibility of the peritoneal dialysis (PD) solution balance in comparison to the conventional PD solution in APD(automated peritoneal dialysis) patients using the APD cycler sleep•safe.

Detailed Description

Equivalence of the investigational PD solution balance regarding fluid status compared to the conventional PD solution.

Effects of balance on inflammation and systemic advanced glycation end products formation.

Effects of balance on peritoneal and total urea clearance, on peritoneal and total creatinine clearance and on ultrafiltration, on residual diuresis and on cholesterol levels.

Safety of the investigational PD solution balance and the conventional PD solution as a control drug.

The mesothelial cell mass assessed by Cancer Antigen 125 is affected by the use of the type of PD solution in APD patients using sleep•safe. Treating patients with the PD solution balance leads to not more than 1 litre difference in hydration in comparison to the conventional PD solution which is considered as clinically not relevant regarding blood pressure.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
CA 125 (cancer antigen 125) appearance rate in the 24 hours effluent and estimated hydration16 weeks

The appearance rate is defined as the sum of the amount of CA125 determined in each outflow bag (concentration of CA125 in outflow multiplied with outflow volume) divided by the real cumulative dwell time of all dwells performed on the day of the 24-hour dialysate collection.
