NCT03859830

Brief Summary

The incidence and prevalence of chronic kidney disease are increasing worldwide, as is the number of patients progressing to End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). China has experienced an increased accessibility and affordability of dialysis treatment, which in turn has brought about an increase in the number of patients receiving Renal Replacement Therapy (RRT).Without RRT, either in the form of maintenance dialysis or transplantation, ESRD is fatal. The scope of the trial is to observe the performance of Artis Dialysis System, ArtiSet PrePost and Ultra HDF Line versus AK 200 Ultra S, extracorporeal circulation conduct of blood purification apparatus and Ultra Steriset as the comparator devices in treatment of patients using hemodialysis (HD) or hemodiafiltration (HDF) for ESRD.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Number of participants successfully completing HDF without interruption of therapy during Dialysis

    Defined as participants not having an interruption in therapy for greater than 15 continuous minutes due to a technical reason of all the enrolled patients in the same group. If there is more than one interruption due to technical reasons, the criteria for failure should be the sum of all interruptions being greater than 15 minutes.

    Day 1 (One Midweek HDF Treament Session, 4 hour duration)

  • Number of Participants by Level of Effectiveness of Disposable Tubing during and after Dialysis

    Participant recorded as "yes" or "no" by categories of (1) blood flow in the tubing is smooth without obstruction, blood flow rate meets requirement of the patient's hemodialysis prescription and finish the dialysis procedure, the (2) connections are free from blood and air leakage and detachment, (3) there is no folding, cracking or rupture in tubing during dialysis procedure.

    Day 1 (One Midweek HDF Treament Session, 4 hour duration)

  • Reduction ratio of β2-Microglobulin during and after Dialysis

    Day 1 (One Midweek HDF Treament Session, 4 hour duration)

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Single-pool Kt/V urea during and after Dialysis

    Day 1 (One Midweek HDF Treament Session, 4 hour duration)

  • Urea Reduction Ratio (URR) during and after Dialysis

    Day 1 (One Midweek HDF Treament Session, 4 hour duration)

  • Number of Participants by Level of Appearance of Disposable Tubing during and after Dialysis

    Day 1 (One Midweek HDF Treament Session, 4 hour duration)

  • Number of Participants by Level of Elasticity of Pump Lines during and after Dialysis

    Day 1 (One Midweek HDF Treament Session, 4 hour duration)

Study Arms (2)

Artis Dialysis System

EXPERIMENTAL

One midweek HDF session for a duration of 4 hours.

Device: Artis Dialysis System, ArtiSet PrePost and Ultra HDF Line

AK200 Ultra S

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

One midweek HDF session for a duration of 4 hours.

Device: AK200 Ultra S, extracorporeal circulation conduct of blood purification

Interventions

The HDF session will be performed in post-dilution volume-controlled mode, with a minimum target total convective volume (VCtot) of 16 L and blood flow rate (QB) set at 200-300 mL/min.

Artis Dialysis System

The HDF session will be performed in post-dilution volume-controlled mode, with a minimum target total convective volume (VCtot) of 16 L and blood flow rate (QB) set at 200-300 mL/min.

AK200 Ultra S

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients ≥18 to ≤75 years of age with diagnosis of ESRD
  • Patients on thrice weekly HD for a minimum of 3 months who received at least one 4 hour HDF treatment in the past two weeks prior to study enrollment with a total convection volume (VCtot) (including UF) of equal or greater than 16 L post-dilution
  • Body weight (BW) ≥ 40 Kg
  • Patients with stable dialysis profiles:
