The VALIDATE-D Study (VALIDATE-D)
Evaluating Hormonal Mechanisms for Vitamin D Receptor Agonist Therapy in Diabetes: The VALIDATE-D Study
調査の概要
詳細な説明
This study aims to evaluate whether vitamin D receptor agonist therapy (calcitriol) in diabetes lowers renin-angiotensin system (RAS) activity in a manner similar to an ACE inhibitor. This is a physiology study, focused on evaluating hormonal changes in the circulating and tissue RAS when compared to placebo.
Subjects with type 2 diabetes and obesity and normal kidney function will undergo evaluation of their circulating and renal-vascular RAS activity and urinary protein at baseline, after withdrawing interfering medications, while on a controlled electrolyte diet, and in controlled posture settings. They will then randomly receive a study medication (calcitriol or placebo) for 3 weeks followed by a re-assessment of their RAS parameters. The main outcomes that will be evaluated following calcitriol/placebo include measures of the circulating renin activity (primary), as well as measures of the renal-vascular RAS (renal plasma flow) and urine protein (secondary)
The primary outcome is the change in the plasma renin activity when sodium restricted, before and after intervention. Secondary outcomes include the change in renal plasma flow and urine protein when sodium loaded, before and after intervention.

説明
Inclusion Criteria:
- Type-Two Diabetes (treated with diet alone, with oral hypoglycemic agents, or with a single injection of basal insulin daily)
- Normal blood pressure, or Mild (Stage 1) Hypertension that is either untreated, or adequately treated with a single anti-hypertensive drug.
- Age >18 years and <70 years
- Estimated GFR > 60ml/min
- Normal laboratory values for: Complete blood count, sodium, potassium, glucose, liver enzymes, urinalysis
- Electrocardiogram without any signs of prior infarction, ventricular conduction abnormality, or supraventricular arrhythmia.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Chronic Kidney Disease or eGFR<60
- History of nephrolithiasis (kidney stones)

- The use of prescribed doses of potassium supplements.
- History of liver failure
- History of parathyroid or granulomatous disorders

- History of known microvascular complications of diabetes (including retinopathy, neuropathy, nephropathy)
- Illness requiring overnight hospitalization in the past 6 months
- Active tobacco or recreational drug use
- Pregnancy or current breast feeding
