Comparing two types of dialyzers for ESKD patients with sepsis

Official title: Comparing Super High-flux and High-flux Dialyzer Performance Among Hemodialysis Patient With Sepsis : a Randomized Control Trial

Run by Navamindradhiraj University · NCT06989892 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study is testing whether a new type of dialyzer can help patients with end-stage kidney disease and sepsis live longer and have better health outcomes compared to a standard dialyzer.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are ESKD patients with sepsis and elevated interleukin-6 levels.

Probably not a fit

Patients requiring continuous kidney replacement therapy or those expected to pass away within 24 hours will not benefit from this study.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study compares the efficacy of super high-flux dialyzers to high-flux dialyzers in patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) who are experiencing sepsis. It is an open-label, single-center, randomized control trial that aims to determine if the super high-flux dialyzer can improve mortality rates and outcomes in these patients. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two dialyzer groups, with a focus on those exhibiting high levels of interleukin-6. The primary endpoint of the study is mortality within 28 days of treatment.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved survival rates and better management of sepsis in ESKD patients.

How similar studies have gone: While this approach is novel in the context of ESKD and sepsis, similar studies have shown promising results with high-flux dialyzers in other patient populations.
