Senescence in Chronic Kidney Disease
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The study goal is to assess the effect of senescent cell clearance on senescence burden, physical ability or frailty, and adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) functionality in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Phase 2 |
Detailed Description
The proposed studies will examine cellular senescence and the effect of senolytic therapy on senescent cell burden, frailty, and adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell function in individuals with diabetic chronic kidney disease.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change in proportion of senescent cells (representing the total senescent cell burden) present [Baseline, Day 14]
Assessment of senescence markers in skin, fat, and/or blood at baseline and day 14.
Secondary Outcome Measures

Assessment of senescence markers in mesenchymal stem cells at baseline and day 14.
- Change in mesenchymal stem cell function [Baseline, Day 14]
Assessment of functional studies in mesenchymal stem cells at baseline and day 14. Number of subjects with change in stem cell function related to treatment.
- Change in Frailty index score [Baseline, Day 14]
Assessment by Fried and other frailty criteria at baseline and day 14.
- Change in kidney function [Baseline, Day 14, Month 4, Month 12]
Assessment by estimated and measured glomerular filtration rate at baseline, day 14, month 4, and month 12.

-
Subjects taking medications that are sensitive to substrates or substrates with a narrow therapeutic range for CYP3A4, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, or CYP2D6 or strong inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A4 (e.g. cyclosporine, tacrolimus or sirolimus). If antifungals are absolutely necessary from an infectious disease perspective, then they will be allowed only if the levels are therapeutic.
-
Subjects on strong inhibitors of CYP3A4.
-
Subjects on therapeutic doses of anticoagulants (Warfarin (Coumadin);Rivaroxaban (Xarleto); Apixaban (Eliquis); Dabigatran (Pradaxa, Prazaxa) or Other).
-
Subjects on antiplatelet agents ((Clopidogrel (Plavix); Dipyridamole + Asprin (Aggrenox); Ticagrelor (Brilinta); Prasugrel (Effient); Ticlopidine (Ticlid) or Other) who are unable or unwilling to reduce or hold therapy prior to and during the 3-day drug dosing. Subjects may continue their previous regimen on day 4.
-
Subjects on quinolone antibiotic therapy for treatment or for prevention of infections within 10 days
-
Subjects taking H2-antagonists or proton pump inhibitors and unwilling to discontinue therapy 1 week prior and 2 weeks following enrollment.
-
Corrected QT interval (QTc)>450 msec
-
Presence of any condition that the Investigator believes would put the subject at risk or would preclude the patient from successfully completing all aspects of the trial.
