Study participants enrolled in the SAMPLE Biorepository (s14-00487) who have provided permission to be contacted for future research will be enrolled and randomized (1:1) two-arm controlled) to either 1) perform weekly home-based proteinuria testing in addition to standard of care or 2) standard of care only. Participants randomized to the home-based proteinuria testing arm will perform weekly home-based proteinuria testing in addition to having standard of care and respond to study team's weekly text messages with urine test results for one year.Read full original descriptionShow less
An Evaluation Of Home Urinalysis Testing For Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) Patients At Elevated Risk For Developing Lupus Nephritis: A Pilot Stage And Randomized, Controlled Study
Study participants enrolled in the SAMPLE Biorepository (s14-00487) who have provided permission to be contacted for future research will be enrolled and randomized (1:1) two-arm controlled) to either 1) perform weekly home-based proteinuria testing in addition to standard of care or 2) standard of care only. Participants randomized to the home-based proteinuria testing arm will perform weekly home-based proteinuria testing in addition to having standard of care and respond to study team's weekly text messages with urine test results for one year.
Inclusion: 18 years or older; Willing to provide informed consent; Lupus diagnosis: Four of the ACR criteria,19,20 four of the SLICC criteria,21 and/or the recent ACR/EULAR criteria, which requires an ANA of 1:80 or greater plus a score of 10 points; If the patient had previous kidney disease (documented UCPR >0.5 as part of ACR, SLICC or EULAR criteria and preferably a biopsy such that Class can be recorded), the patient is now in clinical remission as defined by a UPCR <0.3 at the current visit regardless of any serologic activity. Relapse rates of lupus nephritis occurs in approximately one-third of patients; If no history of previous kidney disease, diagnosis of SLE within 5 years of the current visit, a positive anti-dsDNA and or low C3 or C4 levels, and current UPCR <0.3. These parameters were chosen since the development of lupus nephritis is generally within the first years of SLE diagnosis,1-3 and often patients have serologic activity antedating clinical proteinuria.210; Ownership of any mobile phone; Must be enrolled in SAMPLE Biorepository (s14-00487).
Exclusion: Unwillingness or inability of the patient to participate, or in the opinion of the investigator the patient does not understand the consent form or speaks a language other than English, Spanish, or Mandarin; If the patient does not own a mobile phone; Patient not enrolled in SAMPLE Biorepository (s14-00487).
