Brief Summary

One of the purposes of the management of the patient with chronic kidney disease (CKD)is to slow the decline of renal function. The mechanisms by which the renal function declines involve inflammatory and fibrotic responses due in part by the effects of oxidative stress. Pentoxifylline (PTX)is a drug that stimulates adenosine receptors, and produces inhibition of phosphodiesterases, as well as being a dopaminergic modulator through D1 and D2 receptors. Its main effects are inhibition of the inflammatory state by decreasing serum levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-ɒ) and monocyte chemo attractant protein 1 (MCP\_1), which may slow down the decline of renal function. It also produces diminish of sympathetic activity, with the reduction of circulating levels of norepinephrine (NA), which may contribute to the reduction of glomerulosclerosis in diabetic patients. In the connective tissue increases the activity of the collagenases and decrease of collagen, fibronectin and glucosamine of the fibroblasts as well as inhibition of oxygen free radicals. Due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic effects, PTX can result in an excellent therapeutic option for the prevention of CKD in DM2. This work proposes the use of pentoxifylline as treatment CKD in DM2. Its application in patients with CKD will allow a therapeutic management with different targets, for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antifibrotic effects that will be evaluated by means of fibrosis, inflammation and oxidative stress markers. The results will be of great importance in clinical practice, since they will justify the use of a new pharmacological tool, already known, with minimal adverse effects and low cost, accessible to all strata of the population since it is found as generic.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in the glomerular filtration rate

    It will be measure as to duplicate serum creatinine levels from baseline (mg/dL), or to pass from a stage of chronic kidney disease to he next stage (GFR mL/min)

    The measurements will be done baseline and every six months up to 24 months.

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Change in oxidative stress marker.

    Change is assessed baseline, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months and 24 months.

  • Change in fibrosis markers.

    Change is assessed baseline, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months and 24 months.

  • Change in inflammation markers.

    Change is assessed baseline, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months and 24 months.

  • Change in health-related quality of life

    The questionnaire will be applied baseline and every six months up to 24 months.
