Effecten van percutane transluminale nierangioplastiek van atherosclerotische nierarteriestenose bij hoogrisicopatiënten. (DAN-PTRAII)

9 november 2026 bijgewerkt door: University of Aarhus

Effecten van percutane transluminale nierangioplastiek van atherosclerotische nierarteriestenose bij hoogrisicopatiënten - een Deense landelijke gerandomiseerde schijngecontroleerde studie.

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate whether percutaneous transluminal renal angioplasty (PTRA) with stent placement of atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis is beneficial in high-risk patients selected according to the criteria used in the DAN-PTRAI study. The main questions the trial aims to answer are whether renal artery stenting in addition to optimal medical therapy, compared with a sham procedure and optimal medical therapy, has beneficial effects on:

  • Blood pressure (primary outcome: 24-hour ambulatory systolic blood pressure at 6 months)
  • Kidney function
  • Hospitalizations for heart failure

Studie Overzicht

Gedetailleerde beschrijving

Even with optimal medical care, patients with renovascular disease have a very high risk of cardiovascular events and an expected poor outcome. One treatment option of atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis is percutaneous transluminal renal angioplasty with stent placement. Renal artery stenting is, however, still a subject of debate as randomized trials have failed to show a benefit of this compared with optimal medical treatment alone. Following the results of the large CORAL trial in 2014, we established the national prospective DAN-PTRAI study using strict and well-defined criteria to select patients for renal artery stenting. In this study, we observed a reduction in blood pressure, an improved kidney function, and a decrease in new hospital admissions due to heart failure after renal artery stenting.

The DAN-PTRAII study is a nationwide randomized, sham-controlled clinical trial in patients with severe renovascular disease due to atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis. Only patients who fulfill the inclusion criteria on optimal medical treatment can enter the study and only the operator and the interventional team will know whether the patients receive renal artery stenting or sham treatment. Participants will be followed closely for 6 months after the treatment to evaluate the effects of renal artery stenting compared with a sham procedure, both in addition to optimal medical therapy, on blood pressure, kidney function, and hospitalizations for heart failure.

Systolic, diastolic, mean, and pulse pressure gradients (mmHg) across the target renal artery stenosis will be measured invasively during the procedure. In exploratory analyses, the association between baseline Pd/Pa and mean and systolic translesional pressure gradients and the change in 24-hour ambulatory systolic blood pressure and eGFR from baseline to 6 months will be evaluated, and whether the effect of PTRA differs according to baseline Pd/Pa will be explored.

In exploratory analyses, the association between changes in echocardiographic parameters, including left ventricular mass index, and the change in NT-proBNP from baseline to 6 months will be evaluated to assess whether changes in NT-proBNP reflect changes in cardiac structure and function.

Baseline, 3 months, and 6 months
Proteomic profile in blood and on the angioplasty balloon
Tijdsspanne: Baseline and 6 months

Defined as the proteomic profile in blood and in material retrieved from the angioplasty balloon after dilation during PTRA. In exploratory analyses, the association between the proteomic profile and the change in 24-hour ambulatory systolic blood pressure and eGFR from baseline to 6 months, and the need for reintervention due to restenosis, will be evaluated. Proteomic analyses will be described in a separate analysis plan.

Baseline and 6 months
Number of serious adverse events (SAEs) during follow-up and procedure-related and postoperative adverse events within 30 days after the procedure
Tijdsspanne: From baseline to 6 months (SAEs); from baseline to 30 days (procedure-related and postoperative adverse events)

All SAEs occurring from baseline to 6 months, as well as procedure-related adverse events (≤24 hours) and postoperative adverse events (>24 hours) occurring within 30 days after the procedure, will be systematically recorded and compared between groups as the proportion of participants with at least one event. Events include, but are not limited to:

  1. Death from any cause
  2. Rupture, dissection, occlusion, or perforation of the renal artery
  3. Stent thrombosis of the PTRA-treated renal artery

  5. Bleeding requiring transfusion
  6. Embolization or nephrectomy due to bleeding or other complications
  7. Access-related complications requiring treatment: bleeding, thrombosis, or pseudoaneurysm

Defined as the between-group difference in the change in split renal function (%) of the affected kidney from baseline to 6 months, assessed by renography.

The change in renogram configuration (renogram grade) of the affected kidney from baseline to 6 months will be compared between groups as the proportion of participants with improvement in renogram grade. In exploratory analyses, the diagnostic accuracy (sensitivity and specificity) of baseline renography for identifying hemodynamically significant renal artery stenosis will be assessed using invasive pressure measurement as the reference standard, and the association between baseline renography with intermediate/high probability of renal artery stenosis and the change in 24-hour ambulatory systolic blood pressure and eGFR from baseline to 6 months will be evaluated.
