NCT01300273

Brief Summary

The investigators hypothesize that, LPD supplemented with ketoanalogs will reduce urine podocyte loss and lower the angiotensinogen level in the urine.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • monitor podocyte loss by detecting nephrin, podocin, and synaptopodin mRNA in urine particulates with quantitative reverse transcriptase-PCR.

    At baseline and every 3 months, a whole-stream early morning urine specimen will be collected for gene expression study.

    At baseline and every 3 months

Study Arms (1)

Ketosteril

EXPERIMENTAL
Dietary Supplement: Compound α-Ketoacid Tablet

Interventions

Compound α-Ketoacid TabletDIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

30 patients will be treated with a LPD containing 0.6g protein/kg BW per day and 120-125 kJ/kg BW per day and supplemented with keto-amino acids (Ketosteril®, Fresenius Kabi) at a dosage of 100 mg/kg BW per day.

Also known as: Ketosteril, Ketoanalogs
