Summary

The CAP-KD trial is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, open-label, two-arm, parallel group comparison clinical trial and will be conducted as a researcher-directed study to assess the efficacy of Kremezin in preventing the progression of CKD. We compare two groups of patients: those receiving conventional treatment alone and those receiving such treatment paired with Kremezin.

Detailed description

A clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of the oral carbonaceous adsorbent Kremezin in preventing the progression of chronic kidney disease (the Carbonaceous Oral Adsorbent's Effects on Progression of Chronic Kidney Disease \[CAP-KD\] trial) in predialysis patients. In the trial we are comparing two treatments: conventional treatment comprising an ACEI and/or ARB together with a low-protein diet, and combination treatment comprising the conventional treatment paired with Kremezin. Furthermore, we will compare the QOL in both groups of patients
