Coated Aldehyde Oxystarch for Protein-Bound Uremic Toxin Reduction in End-Stage Renal Disease

An Exploratory, Single-Center, Self-Controlled Trial of Coated Aldehyde Oxystarch for Reducing Protein-Bound Uremic Toxins in Patients With End-Stage Renal Disease

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 17 Jun 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Coated Aldehyde Oxystarch (Xiqing) works to reduce protein-bound uremic toxins (PBUTs) in adults with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). It will also learn about the safety of Coated Aldehyde Oxystarch. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does Coated Aldehyde Oxystarch lower the blood levels of protein-bound uremic toxins, such as indoxyl sulfate and p-cresyl sulfate? What medical problems do participants have when taking Coated Aldehyde Oxystarch? Researchers will compare the levels of PBUTs before treatment (baseline) with those after treatment with Coated Aldehyde Oxystarch to see if it works to reduce these toxins. Participants will: Take Coated Aldehyde Oxystarch (Xiqing) 10 capsules per time, three times daily (each capsule 0.625 g, total daily dose 18.75 g) for 3 months. Visit the clinic every month for checkups and blood tests. Provide blood samples to measure protein-bound uremic toxin levels and routine safety parameters.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Use of medications or supplements that may affect gut microbiota (e.g., antibiotics, probiotics, prebiotics, laxatives) within the past 3 months.
  • Concurrent severe primary diseases of cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, hepatic, hematopoietic systems, or other known life-threatening diseases (e.g., malignancy, AIDS), or patients with mental or legal disabilities.
  • Use of Chinese patent medicines for kidney disease (e.g., Shenkang Injection, Haikun Shenxi Capsule, Shenshuaining, Tripterygium preparations, Niaoduqing Granules) within 1 month prior to enrollment.

Other illness

  • Known allergy to Coated Aldehyde Oxystarch.
  • History of or planned kidney transplantation within 6 months, or change in dialysis regimen.
  • Diagnosis of serious gastrointestinal diseases, including gastrointestinal bleeding, colitis, inflammatory bowel disease, irritable bowel syndrome, history of intestinal obstruction, history of gastrectomy or duodenectomy.
  • Intellectual disability, psychiatric disorders, or suspected/confirmed history of alcohol or drug abuse that may affect compliance.
  • Any other condition that, in the investigator's judgment, makes the patient unsuitable for participation in this study.

Lab values

  • History of cardiovascular or cerebrovascular events within 3 months prior to screening, including hospitalization for stroke, myocardial infarction, unstable angina, congestive heart failure; severe valvular stenosis, uncontrolled atrial fibrillation or arrhythmia; QTc interval \>500 ms on repeated ECG.

Other

  • Investigator judges life expectancy ≤6 months.
  • Inability to maintain stable dietary habits during the study period.
  • Inability to maintain original dialysis regimen during the study period.
  • Participation in another clinical trial within the past 1 month.

Who the study is looking for

  • Age ≥ 18 years, no restriction on sex or ethnicity.
  • Receiving maintenance dialysis for at least 3 months, with dialysis regimen remaining unchanged during the trial period.
  • If taking other medications that do not interfere with gut microbiota prior to enrollment, they must have been stable for at least 1 month and the regimen must remain unchanged during the trial.
  • Ability to understand and voluntarily sign the informed consent form.
