PaNeX: Partial Nephrectomy Under Xenon
- Conditions
- Renal Function After Partial Nephrectomy
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT01839084
- Lead Sponsor
- RWTH Aachen University
- Brief Summary
Purpose of this study is to determine whether Xenon - as compared to Isoflurane - shows a nephroprotection after partial nephrectomy.
- Detailed Description
A partial nephrectomy is accompanied by ischemia time, followed by reperfusion. This frequently leads to a kidney injury of the remained tissue and decrease of the renal function after surgery. As it was shown that Xenon has protective properties against ischemia/reperfusion injury, the investigators hypothesize that Xenon application during partial nephrectomy leads to a stronger nephroprotection than an anesthesia with Isoflurane.
The study will be conducted by two investigator types: The study enrollment and the post-anesthesia follow-up will be performed by Investigator I who is blinded to the study treatment. Investigator II will only perform general anesthesia for partial nephrectomy and will therefore necessarily be unblinded to the treatment conditions.
Patients will be randomly assigned to one of the following study groups. Group 1 (Xenon) will receive Xenon for maintenance of balanced anesthesia for partial nephrectomy. Group 2 (Isoflurane) will receive Isoflurane for the same surgery.

Group Intervention Description Xenon Xenon Gaseous anesthetic, dosage: 60% (v/v) in 40% oxygen, continuous application during surgery Isoflurane Isoflurane Inhalative anesthetic, dosage: 1.2% (v/v) in 40% oxygen/medical air , continuous application during surgery
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Evaluation of the impact of xenon-anesthesia on the renal function after partial nephrectomy, compared to an isoflurane-anesthesia. Within the first 7 postoperative days Evaluation of the maximum decrease of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) within 7 days after partial nephrectomy surgery. Maximum decrease will be assessed by the difference between the baseline value of GFR and the minimum value of GFR after surgery.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Secondary efficacy criteria for using xenon-anaesthesia during partial nephrectomy. Within the first 7 postoperative days Determination of acute kidney failure according to the AKIN classification
Safety criteria for using xenon-anaesthesia during partial nephrectomy. intraoperative and within the first 7 postoperative days The incidence of adverse event (AE) and serious adverse event (SAE)
