Renalof in the Dissolution of Renal Calculi in Patients With Recurrent Calcic Lithiasis

February 3, 2010 updated by: Catalysis SL

Efficacy of Renalof in the Dissolution of Renal Calculi in Patients With Recurrent Calcic Lithiasis

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Renalof administration promotes partial or total dissolution of urinary calculi and improves physicochemical parameters and metabolic activity in patients with recurrent calcic urolithiasis. The duration of this double-blind placebo controlled phase 3 clinical trial will be 12 weeks. The estimated number of patients to be recruited and randomized for the study is 110. Ultrasonographic and humoral parameters will be assessed every 4 weeks.
