Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults 18–80 with stage 2–4 CKD (eGFR 15–89 mL/min/1.73 m²) who are not on dialysis, can attend regular visits, and are willing to try an experimental therapy.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients on dialysis, with a prior kidney transplant, active malignancy, severe uncontrolled medical conditions, or who are immunocompromised or pregnant are unlikely to benefit from this trial.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This randomized, single-blind Phase 1 trial enrolls about 100 adults with stage 2–4 CKD and compares three groups: AdiaVita plus glutathione, glutathione with a placebo infusion, and double placebo. Participants receive monthly IV infusions for three months and use a topical glutathione spray at home during the treatment phase, with a crossover option for some participants after the initial phase if safety criteria are met. Primary outcomes are safety and changes in eGFR and serum creatinine, while secondary outcomes track tolerability and adverse events over a total 12-month participation period. Data collection includes laboratory assessments, physical exams, and structured safety monitoring.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the therapy could improve or stabilize kidney function and potentially delay progression to dialysis for some patients.
How similar studies have gone: Early-phase and small clinical studies of stem cell and exosome approaches in CKD have shown preliminary safety and mixed signals of modest kidney function benefit, but larger definitive trials are still lacking.
