Effect of Add-on Spironolactone to Losartan Versus Losartan Alone on Peritoneal Membrane Among Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

• Status: Unknown status
• Trial end date: 2020-12-01

Summary

The ESCAPE-PD (Effects of add-on SpironolaCtone to losartan versus Alone on Peritoneal mEmbrane among continuous ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis patients) study is a randomized, open-label, single center, active-controlled clinical trial. Adults end-stage kidney disease patients 18 years or older undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) will be enrolled. A total 84 CAPD will be randomly assigned to either the combination of spironolactone and losartan (experimental arm) or losartan alone (control arm). The primary outcomes are the difference in peritoneal dialysate effluent cancer antigen-125 (CA-125) and peritoneal equilibration test (PET) indices (dialysate-to-plasma creatinine ratio, 4-hour ultrafiltration volume, and the concentration of glucose present in the solution at the start of the test). Secondary outcome measures include laboratory and mechanistic outcome measures, nutrition outcomes, health-related quality of life, physical function, clinical events, and safety profiles. Results will be disseminated to suggest a strategy to prevent the peritoneal membrane function among CAPD patients through peer-reviewed publications along with scientific meetings.
