ACEi ARB Withdrawal in CKD Patients

Study Description
Brief Summary:
The American Heart Association guidelines for high blood pressure (BP) currently recommend using angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) as first-line therapy for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 3 or above. However, the prevalence of ACEi and ARB use in patients with CKD stage 4 or 5 is low, and current BP guidelines acknowledge the lack of solid evidence to support the benefit of using these agents in advanced CKD.This study seeks to conduct a pilot trial to determine the safety and feasibility of ACEi and/or ARB continuation (intervention) versus withdrawal (control) in patients with advanced CKD.

Study Type : Interventional  (Clinical Trial)
Estimated Enrollment : 60 participants
Allocation: Randomized
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Single (Outcomes Assessor)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: Angiotensin-converting Enzyme Inhibitors (ACEi) or Angiotensin Receptor Blockers (ARB) Withdrawal in Patients With Advanced Chronic Kidney Disease
Actual Study Start Date : September 7, 2018
Estimated Primary Completion Date : September 2021
Estimated Study Completion Date : September 2021
Arms and Interventions
Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: ACEi/ARB continuation
Intervention group will continue or start to take ACEi and/or ARBs
Other: Continuation of ACEi and/or ARBs
Patients will continue or start taking ACEi and/or ARBs

No Intervention: ACEi/ARB withdrawal
The control group will discontinue ACEi and/or ARBs which may be substituted with other anti-hypertensive agents (if already taking ACEi/ARB) or continue to not take ACEi/ARBs
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Rate of enrollment and dropout in trial [ Time Frame: Months 1-12 ]
    measure of acceptability of continuing ACEi/ARBs among providers and patients

  2. Number of patients who have onset of hyperkalemia (non-hemolyzed potassium ≥6.0 meq/L) [ Time Frame: Months 1-12 ]
    safety measure

  3. Number of all cause emergency room visits [ Time Frame: Months 1-12 ]
    safety measure

  4. Number of all-cause hospitalizations [ Time Frame: Months 1-12 ]
    safety measure

  5. Number of falls and syncope reported by patients and/or discharge summaries [ Time Frame: Months 1-12 ]
    safety measure

  6. Number of patients who receive chronic dialysis or kidney transplant [ Time Frame: Months 1-12 ]
    Marks the onset of end-stage renal disease


Eligibility Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study:   18 Years and older   (Adult, Older Adult)
Sexes Eligible for Study:   All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • adults ≥18 years of age who meet the eGFR eligibility criteria, which will be determined based on whether participants have at least two eGFR in the last three months that are < 25 mL/min/1.73m2 or prior diagnosis of CKD (per electronic chart review) and at least one eGFR < 25 mL/min/1.73m2 in the past six months
  • receiving at least one antihypertensive medication at the time of the screening visit.

Exclusion Criteria:

The investigators will exclude those who:

  • are or are planning to become pregnant, due to inability to take multiple classes of anti-hypertensive agents
  • are marginally housed, due to concerns regarding routine follow-up
  • are actively participating in a different interventional trial that may affect blood pressure
  • are unwilling to consent to participate
  • institutionalized individuals or prisoners
  • are actively abusing illicit drugs or alcohol
  • have a history of poor or doubtful compliance (e.g., frequently missed appointments)
  • have cognitive impairment prohibiting participation in the study
  • on dialysis at time of recruitment
