Study summary

The investigators hypothesize that using Losartan would help decrease proteinuria in pediatric chronic kidney disease with tubular proteinuria.

Read the detailed description

Children with tubular proteinuria (urine protein to creatinine ratio > 0.3 mg/mg) were randomly assigned in 1:1 ratio to losartan or placebo treatment for 12 weeks, then crossed over to the opposite intervention for another three months after a washout period of 2 weeks. The primary outcome is the change in urinary protein-creatinine ratio from baseline to the end of 12 weeks. Efficacy of losartan in children with CKD with tubular proteinuria was also investigated with additional retrospective review of medical record.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. the change in urinary protein-creatinine ratio from baseline to the end of 12 weeks

    Change in urinary protein excretion, determined as urinary Protein-creatinine ratio compared to baseline, after 12 weeks of treatment

    Time frame: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. the change in urinary albumin-creatinine ratio from baseline to the end of study

    Change in urinary albumin excretion, determined as urinary albumin-creatinine ratio compared to baseline, after 12 weeks of treatment

    Time frame: 12 weeks

  2. the proportion of patients wifh more than 50% decrease of urinary protein-creatinine ratio

    number of patients with wifh more than 50% decrease of urinary protein-creatinine ratio compared to baseline, after 12 weeks of treatment

    Time frame: 12 weeks

  3. the change in urinary beta2-microglobulin-creatinine ratio from baseline to the end of study

    Change in urinary beta2-microglobulin--creatinine ratio compared to baseline, after 12 weeks of treatment

    Time frame: 12 weeks

  4. the change in urinary NAG-creatinine ratio from baseline to the end of study

    Change in urinary NAG-creatinine ratio compared to baseline, after 12 weeks of treatment
