Study Evaluating the Effectiveness and Safety of XyloCore, a Low-Glucose Peritoneal Dialysis Solution, Compared to Standard Glucose Solutions in Adults with End-Stage Renal Disease

What this Trial Is About

This research aims to compare the effects of a new low glucose peritoneal dialysis solution called XyloCore against standard glucose-based solutions in patients with End-Stage Renal Disease ESRD who are undergoing Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis CAPD. The study is randomized, controlled, and open-label with blinded assessment of the main outcomes, conducted over a 6-month period. It includes patients already using common glucose peritoneal dialysis solutions and Extraneal for their long-dwell exchange. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the experimental XyloCore solution or continue with their current glucose peritoneal dialysis solutions. XyloCore is provided in low, medium, or high strengths matched to the glucose concentration of the patients prior prescription, while the control group maintains their usual glucose-based solutions. Both groups will continue using Extraneal for the nocturnal long-dwell exchange. Dialysis prescriptions may be adjusted by investigators to meet a target dialysis adequacy measure KtV > 1.7 per week. Throughout the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including measurement of dialysis adequacy total weekly KtVurea, blood tests such as HbA1c, cholesterol levels, hemoglobin, and insulin, as well as monitoring of kidney function, fluid removal, fatigue, and adverse events. The study includes follow-up visits for up to 6 months, with careful monitoring of safety and treatment effects. The trial is sponsored by Iperboreal Pharma Srl and uses centralized randomization with blinded evaluation of primary endpoints.
