Long-term, High Blood Flow Hemoadsorption Therapy in Patients Undergoing Maintenance Hemodialysis
China80 participantsStarted 2024-08-28
Plain-language summary
Objective:The purpose of the study is to confirm that extending the duration of hemoadsorption (HA) and increasing blood flow during the HA+hemodialysis (HD) treatment process is safe and feasible, and to verify that extending the HP treatment duration can further increase the clearance of protein-bound uremic toxins.
Methods: The study employs a multicenter, prospective, cohort design with a self-controlled before-and-after comparison. The duration of HA+HD treatment for maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients is extended to 4 hours, and the extracorporeal blood flow rate is increased to over 250-350 ml/min. The safety of the treatment is assessed by evaluating the safety of the procedure; the levels of relevant toxins in the patients' blood are measured before and after treatment, and the clearance rate of uremic toxins after a single treatment is calculated and compared with the self-controlled before-and-after data to determine whether the modified protocol can remove more uremic toxins.

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?

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?
