Observational study of patients with high blood pressure and kidney disease in Russia

Multicenter, Non-interventional Observational Prospective Study With Retrospective Analysis to Describe the Rate of CKD Diagnosis, in Patients With Arterial Hypertension and CKD Markers

Observational AstraZeneca · NCT06372431

This study is trying to find out how many people with high blood pressure also have kidney disease that hasn't been diagnosed yet, by looking at 10,000 adult patients in Russia.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to assess the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) among patients with arterial hypertension (AH) in Russia. It will enroll 10,000 adult outpatients who have laboratory markers indicating CKD but have not been previously diagnosed with the condition. The study will take place across approximately 50 outpatient sites in 20 regions of Russia, focusing on routine monitoring and treatment by cardiologists or internal medicine specialists. By tracking these patients over time, the study seeks to improve early detection of CKD and reduce associated health risks.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older with diagnosed arterial hypertension and laboratory markers of CKD, but without a prior CKD diagnosis.

Not a fit: Patients with diabetes mellitus or symptomatic chronic heart failure will not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to earlier diagnosis and management of CKD in patients with arterial hypertension, potentially improving patient outcomes.

How similar studies have performed: While there is limited data on the specific population of patients with both AH and CKD in Russia, similar observational studies have shown success in other regions, indicating the potential for valuable insights.
