NCT02230202

Brief Summary

The primary hypothesis of this proposal is that chronic kidney disease (CKD) and treatment with calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) are each associated with the release of endothelial microparticles into the plasma.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in Vascular Function

    This will be measured with flow-mediated dilation and evaluate percent change from baseline over minutes.

    percent change from baseline over 2 minutes

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Characterization of Microparticle source from blood analysis

    Single time point

Study Arms (3)

Healthy control

Healthy control that meets inclusion/exclusion criteria. Single blood draw and flow-mediated dilation (FMD).

Other: Flow-mediated dilationOther: single blood draw

Stage III or IV CKD patients

Stage III or IV CKD patients that meets inclusion/exclusion criteria. Single blood draw and flow-mediated dilation (FMD).

Other: Flow-mediated dilationOther: single blood draw

Post-transplant patients

Stage III or IV CKD Post-transplant patients that meets inclusion/exclusion criteria. Single blood draw and flow-mediated dilation (FMD).

Other: Flow-mediated dilationOther: single blood draw

Interventions

Flow-mediated dilation used to measure vascular function. The test is minimally invasive, with only a slight discomfort due to the inflation of the arm cuff.

Healthy controlPost-transplant patientsStage III or IV CKD patients

single blood draw of approximately 45 mL.
