Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The prospective, double blind randomized, parallel control, and multi-center clinical trial will evaluate the safety and efficacy of α-keto acid with restricted protein diet on protecting residual renal function in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: α-Keto Acid with restricted protein diet
  • Drug: Placebo plus restricted protein diet
N/A

Detailed Description

Residual renal function (RRF) is associated with cardiovascular complication, nutritional status, incidence of peritonitis, and quality of life in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. Therefore, RRF is an important determinant of mortality and morbidity in PD patients.

Previous studies have suggested that dietary protein restriction supplemented with α-keto acids may slow the loss of RRF in chronic kidney disease patients. However, these trials are small sample and short-time research. In PD patients, there is very few reports to indicate the effect of α-keto acid with restricted protein diet on RRF.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of α-keto acid with restricted protein diet on protecting residual renal function in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients.This is a prospective, double blind randomized, parallel control, and multi-center clinical study. 160 patients who meet Inclusion/Exclusion criteria will be randomized into α-Keto Acid group or control group at the ratio of 1:1. The α-Keto Acid group will use compound α-Keto Acid plus restricted protein diet, while control group will use placebo plus restricted protein diet.The α-Keto Acid dosage is 100mg/kg/d daily. The restricted protein dosage is 1g/kg/d. The safety and efficacy of α-Keto Acid with restricted protein diet on RRF will be evaluated after 1 year treatment.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: α-Keto Acid plus restricted protein diet

Participants randomized to this group will receive 12 months treatment of α-Keto Acid. The dose of α-Keto Acid is 100mg/kg per day and will divided into three times per day, and the α-Keto Acid will be asked to be taken during the meal. In addition, the participants will be asked to restrict the protein intake. The protein intake is restricted as 1g/kg/d.

Drug: α-Keto Acid with restricted protein diet
α-Keto Acid: The daily dose of compound α-Keto Acid is 100mg/kg/d. The total daily dose will be divided into three times a day. Restricted Protein Diet: Diet contain protein 1.0g/kg/d
Other Names:
  • Test Group
  • Placebo Comparator: Placebo plus restricted protein diet

    All participants will receive 12 months treatment of placebo, at the same time they will be asked to restrict the protein intake.The dose of placebo is 100mg/kg per day, and the protein intake is restricted as 1g/kg/d.

    Drug: Placebo plus restricted protein diet
    placebo: The daily dose of placebo is 100mg/kg/d. The total daily dose will be divided into three times a day. Diet contain protein 1.0 g/kg/d.
