Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To examine if PD-protec® provides benefits for peritoneal health by measuring CA-125 and ex-vivo stimulated IL-6 release;Secondary Objective: • To examine effects of PD-protec® on peritoneal and systemic disease mechanisms relevant in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients • To evaluate local and systemic safety and tolerability ;Primary end point(s): • Peritoneal health - Mesothelial cell mass/status Cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) appearance rate in 4-hour peritoneal dialysis effluent (PDE) from peritoneal equilibration test (PET) - Peritoneal immunocompetence and inflammation Ex-vivo stimulated IL-6 release from cells in 1-hour PDE from PET ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: at the end of 8 weeks treatment

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): • Biomarkers of the effects of PD-protec® on disease mechanisms relevant in patients on PD and clinical endpoints;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: at the end of 8 weeks treatment
