简要总结
There is a well-documented increased risk for disordered mineral bone homeostasis in Kidney Transplant Recipients (KTRs) when compared to the general population, leading to a markedly increased risk for fragility fractures and their associated morbidity and mortality. A more uniform and rigorous evaluation of bone and mineral homeostasis,than is afforded to patients under "normal care", will result in better clinical outcomes in KTRs.
详细描述
The aim is to comprehensively characterize the mineral metabolism and skeletal phenotype in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) to being to identify risk factors for post-kidney transplant mineral bone disease (PKT-MBD); and to evaluate whether treatment of abnormalities in these parameters will improve skeletal health as quantified by bone mineral density (BMD), bone turnover markers (rate of skeletal remodeling) and Osteoprobe (a direct index of bone quality using reference point indentation technology.
Participants in the rigorous evaluation arm will be followed with a) Mineral metabolism: blood calcium, phosphorus, parathyroid hormone (PTH), 25(OH) vitamin D; b) Bone turnover markers: bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, cross-linked C-telopeptide of type I collagen (CTx), and N-terminal propeptide of type I collagen (PINP); c)Bone Mineral Density using a Dual energy x-ray absorptiometry which is the standard method by which bone mass is measured clinically.
NOTE: The use of the Osteoprobe was discontinued on 9/5/19 due to safety concerns from the FDA about the device in other trials/other sites.
The Control Cohort is essentially an historical control group who will have received standard of care for the 18 months ending just prior to the enrollment of our Intervention Cohort. A coincident Control Cohort will not be used because knowledge of the additional data to be collected in the Control Cohort will undoubtedly influence their care by their attending nephrologists and surgeons.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in bone turnover marker carboxy-terminal collagen crosslinks (CTx)
时间窗: 18 months
In the intervention group changes in measures of mineral metabolism (serum calcium, phosphorus, PTH and 25 OH vitamin D levels), changes in bone turnover markers, BMD and bone quality markers will be compared to baseline results. The primary outcome variable will be the change in serum CTx from baseline. CTx is a marker of bone resorption and rates of resorption predict bone loss and fracture risk.
次要结局
- Variance in bone loss(18 months)
