简要总结

Pentoxifylline (PTX) is a medication that has been on the market since 1984 for use in disease in the blood vessels of the legs. There is some preliminary information that it may protect the kidneys from damage due to diabetes and other diseases. "Pentoxifylline in Diabetic Kidney Disease" is a study to bee conducted in 40 VA hospitals across the nation to determine definitively whether or not PTX can prevent worsening of kidney disease and delay death in patients with diabetic kidney disease.

详细描述

Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the most frequent cause of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in the U.S. and in U.S. Veterans. Control of blood pressure and reduction in proteinuria, for instance by blockade of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) or angiotensin-receptors blockers (ARBs), have led to some improvement in outcomes in recent years. However, many patients continue to progress to ESRD, requiring costly dialysis or transplantation and resulting in high mortality. Patients with ESRD on maintenance dialysis also have markedly impaired quality of life. Thus, novel treatments are needed for this disease.

The non-specific phosphodiesterase inhibitor pentoxifylline (PTX) was approved by the FDA in 1984 for the treatment of peripheral vascular disease. Therefore, this drug has been in clinical use for over 3 decades and has been found to have an excellent safety profile. Recent experimental and clinical data suggest that PTX, when added to usual care in patients with DKD, leads to a reduction in albuminuria and reduced inflammation, as evidenced by lower levels of inflammatory cytokines, and may decrease progression of renal disease. The available evidence thus suggests the possibility of the use of PTX as a valuable repurposing of an old drug in the treatment of DKD. However, a large scale multicenter randomized clinical trial is needed to determine whether this agent can reduce hard endpoints such as ESRD and death in patients with DKD.

The objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that PTX, when added to usual care, leads to a reduction in the incidence of ESRD and mortality in type-2 diabetic patients with DKD when compared to usual care plus placebo.

The primary endpoint will be time to ESRD or death. ESRD will be defined as need for chronic dialysis or renal transplantation.

Secondary efficacy endpoints will be: (1) quality of life as measured by the Kidney Disease Quality of Life Short Form (KDQoL-SF), (2) time until doubling of serum creatinine, (3) hospitalization for congestive heart failure (CHF), (4) a three-point MACE (cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke), (5) peripheral vascular disease (PVD), (6) percentage of participants with 50% reduction in UACR from baseline, (7) Rate of change in eGFR per year during the study period. Safety (serious adverse events and adverse events possibly or probably related to study drug, discontinuation of study drug) will also be analyzed as a secondary safety outcome.
