| NCT00028626 ↗ | Portal Vein Embolization in Treating Patients With Liver Metastases From Primary Colorectal Cancer | Completed | National Cancer Institute (NCI) | Phase 2 | 2001-08-01 | RATIONALE: Embolization blocks blood flow to part of an organ and/or tumor. Blocking the portal vein on one side of the liver may cause the opposite side of the liver to increase in size and decrease the risk of liver failure following surgery. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of portal vein embolization in treating patients who have liver metastases from primary colorectal cancer. |

| NCT00157586 ↗ | Delapril and Manidipine for Nephroprotection in Diabetes (DEMAND) | Completed | Mario Negri Institute for Pharmacological Research | Phase 3 | 2002-02-01 | Diabetes mellitus is one of the most common diseases globally, and is considered epidemic in many developed and newly industrialized nations. Diabetes mellitus represents the single largest cause of end-stage renal disease in the U.S. and Europe. At the same time, the primary cause of early death in diabetic patients are cardiovascular complications. Experimental and clinical studies found that angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) and calcium channel blockers (CCBs) have a specific renoprotective effect and that this effect can be magnified when the two drugs are used in combination. To formally test this hypothesis we designed the Delapril and Manidipine for Nephroprotection in Diabetes (DEMAND) study, a prospective, randomized, double blind trial aimed to compare the effect of 3 years treatment with the ACEi Delapril (30 mg/day), alone or combined to the CCB Manidipine (10 mg/day), versus conventional (non ACEi, non CCB) therapy on the rate of renal function loss and on the incidence of major cardiovascular events in 342 normo- and micro-albuminuric hypertensive type 2 diabetic patients. |
| NCT00309283 ↗ | Somatostatin in Polycystic Kidney: a Long-term Three Year Follow up Study | Completed | Mario Negri Institute for Pharmacological Research | Phase 3 | 2006-04-01 | Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is the most common hereditary renal disease, responsible for 8% to 10% of the cases of end stage renal disease (ESRD) in Western countries. At comparable levels of blood pressure control and proteinuria, patients with ADPKD have faster decline in glomerular filtration rate than those with other renal diseases and do not seem to benefit to the same extent of ACE inhibitor therapy. A reasonable explanation for the above findings is that in ADPKD progression is largely dependent on the development and growth of cysts and secondary disruption of normal tissue. Thus, renoprotective interventions in ADPKD - in addition to achieve maximal reduction of arterial blood pressure and proteinuria and to limit the effects of additional potential promoters of disease progression such as dyslipidemia, chronic hyperglycemia or smoking - should also be specifically aimed to correct the dysregulation of epithelial cell growth, secretion, and matrix interactions characteristic of the disease. Evidence that specific receptors for somatostatin are present in the kidney tissue, arises the possibility that somatostatin treatment in patients with ADPKD might inhibit fluid formation and eventually induce the shrinking of renal cysts.To evaluate the tolerability and the safety of long-acting somatostatin in ADPKD patients, a prospective cross-over controlled study has been recently performed. This pilot study demonstrated the safety of six month treatment of long-acting somatostatin in patients with ADPKD. Moreover, the percent increase of total kidney volume was significantly lower in patients on somatostatin than in placebo. Overall, these findings provide the basis for designing a long-term study in ADPKD patients aimed to document the efficacy of the somatostatin treatment in preventing further increase or even reducing the total kidney volume and the renal volume taken up by small cysts, eventually halting kidney disease progression. |
