Develop and Implement Methods for Diagnostic and Treatment of Hormonal Disorders in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease
Belarus400 participantsStarted 2018-01-01
Plain-language summary
Methods of diagnostic and treatment of hormonal disorders in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) will be developed and implemented in real clinical practice. As a result of the project, new scientific data will be obtained on the relationship of hyperprolactinemia and impaired functioning of the pituitary-gonadal axis, changes in functioning of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system will be revealed, and the characteristics of the thyroid and parathyroid status in patients with CKD will be determined, including receiving renal replacement therapy (RRT) and after kidney transplantation, which will improve the efficiency of diagnosis and treatment of hormonal disorders in the early stages of the disease, reduce the direct financial costs of the diagnostic and treatment process primarily due to the optimization of hormonal studies and treatment of the revealed disorders, as well as will prevent the progression of CKD and the severity of the condition of this category of patients due to the development of hormonal dysfunctions.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
