A Feasibility Study of Peritoneal Dialysis With CLS PD, Which Removes Toxins and Maintains a Stable Ultrafiltration by Continuously Regenerating a Recirculating Intraperitoneal Fluid, in Patients With End Stage Renal Disease, ESRD, With PD Therapy.

April 16, 2018 updated by: Triomed AB
The study is a proof-of-concept of peritoneal dialysis with the Carry Life System for Peritoneal Dialysis (CLS PD). The extra-corporeally absorption of uremic toxins and certain ions from the recirculated peritoneal fluid by the Purcart are evaluated together with the achievement of a stable intraperitoneal osmolarity.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Each patient will be studied during a daytime treatment session of 8 hours. After the inclusion criteria have been met the patient will undergo a Personal Dialysis Capacity test (PDC) to establish the characteristics of the peritoneal membrane, which is required for the individual glucose-salt setting in the device. An ECG and coagulation status will also be performed at this visit.

The clinical study requires the insertion of a temporary catheter (Pigtail) in addition to the patients existing standard PD catheter, and it will be inserted on the morning of the study session. Once the temporary catheter is in situ the peritoneal cavity is filled with a standard glucose based PD solution. Heparin will be added to the PD solution to prevent clogging of the CLS PD. The device is then connected to the catheters and the temporary catheter is used for inflow and positioned in the upper right abdominal quadrant whereas the standard PD catheter in the lower quadrant is used for outflow.

During the study session, a glucose-salt solution will be delivered at a set rate according to individual prescriptions based on the PDC-test and a dosage table based on an algorithm. The osmolarity of the intraperitoneal fluid should be approximately 325 mOsmol/L to obtain an average ultrafiltration of roughly 100 ml/h. It is possible to adjust the delivery rate of the glucose-salt solution during the study session to maintain the desired osmolarity.

The Purcart used for removal of uremic toxins requires replacement after 4 hours of treatment. The use of two Purcarts during the eight-hour study session will provide adequate information with regard to the efficacy of toxin removal.

After the study session, the temporary catheter will be removed and the patient will be hospitalized overnight for observation. The patient will resume their previous PD therapy 36 hours after the study session. The patient's experience of the treatment will be recorded and a follow-up will be performed within 1 week after the study session.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
EXPERIMENTAL: Single group with CLS PD device
Aim of the intervention is to evaluate the adsorbs of uremic toxins and certain ions with Purcart and the evaluation of the glucose-salt solution ability to achieve stable osmolality. The intervention is during an eight hour study session.
Device: lCarry Life System Peritoneal Dialysis (CLS PD)
The assigned intervention is with the CLS PD device in patients currently receiving peritoneal dialysis for the duration of one study session. A temporary Pigtail catheter is inserted on the same morning as the study session and removed after the session on the same day.
