Urinary kidney biomarkers, Clusterin and Renal Papillary Antigen-1 (RPA-1), that sponsors may use to determine more conservative NOAELs for estimating starting doses in the initial human clinical trial of a drug that displays nonclinical nephrotoxicity as determined by histopathology. When tested with a limited number of nephrotoxic compounds, the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) analyses showed that urinary clusterin and renal papillary antigen-1 (RPA-1) have better sensitivity and specificity than BUN and creatinine for the detection of specific kidney pathologies in male rats. Clusterin and RPA-1 provide additional and complementary information to BUN, serum creatinine (sCr), and histopathology for the detection of acute drug-induced nephrotoxicity in safety assessment studies.

Members include molecular biologists, immunologists, epidemiologists, oncologists, biochemists and clinical urologic scientists. SBUR members serve on a wide variety of advisory panels, study sections, editorial boards and in the pharmaceutical industry. The SBUR organizes two annual meetings to share new findings at a multidisciplinary level, to promote interaction among members and other interested scientists and to highlight new areas of research and funding opportunities. The Society was organized to address the following: * To provide a forum for the presentation and discussion of basic scientific topics related to urology * To develop educational forums concerning scientific advancements related to the field of urology * To promote collaborative investigations among member scientists with an emphasis on the interchange of expertise among clinical and basic scientists * To promote the communication and interests of urologic disease investigators with national funding agencies, industry representatives and academic institutions with regards to urology related research * To serve as a resource for research information and expertise to clinical urologists through the American Urological Association

http://kidney.niddk.nih.gov/statistics/uda/

A report incorporating current and retrospective data on all aspects of the epidemiology, practice patterns, costs, and impact of urologic diseases in the United States and is intended for use by public officials, nongovernment organizations, the media, academic researchers, health professionals, and the public. The UDA compendium consists of data tables annotated in chapters that amplify the data analyses. The objectives of the UDA project include: secondary data analyses of: changes in the overall healthcare burden for individual urologic diseases, in physician practice patterns for each urologic disease, and in demographics of persons with urologic disease, the impact of specific urologic diseases, especially diseases of the prostate, on the minority populations of the U.S., and documentation of new and evolving therapies for urologic disease and their cost.

http://clinicaltrials.gov/show/NCT00143949

Randomized, multicenter, double-blind study to determine if renin angiotensin medications, either losartan (angiotensin II blocker) or enalapril (converting enzyme inhibitor), can prevent or delay the onset of diabetic kidney disease in patients with type 1 diabetic patients who do not have hypertension, diabetic nephropathy, or predictive levels of microalbuminuria. Two hundred eight five patients ages 16-61 with 2-20 yrs of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus and no renal functional abnormalities were randomized into a parallel, double-blind, placebo-controlled study involving 3 groups (95 patients/group). Each group received an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) (enalapril), or an angiotensin II receptor blocker (Losartan), or placebo. All patients had their usual Diabetes Mellitus (DM) management. Baseline studies included measures of glomerular filtration rate (GFR), urinary albumin excretion rate (UAE), blood pressure (BP), and a percutaneous renal biopsy. Patients were followed by quarterly measures of BP, HbA1C, UAE, and drug compliance. There were annual measures of GFR and a repeat renal biopsy after 5 yrs in the study. The main endpoint is kidney structural changes over time, especially mesangial fractional volume (v(Mes/glom)). Secondary endpoints will be other DN structural measures and measures of kidney function (UAE, GFR). These studies will determine whether rennin angiotensin system blockage in the early stages of DN can prevent the early kidney structural changes in this important disorder. Ancillary studies will evaluate the effects of treatment group on the development and progression of diabetic retinopathy and will develop predictors of study participants'''' compliance. Baseline, 2.5 and 5 year retinal fundus photographs in the RASS patients were obtained.

http://www.cristudy.org/Chronic-Kidney-Disease/Chronic-Renal-Insufficiency-Cohort-Study/

A prospective observational national cohort study poised to make fundamental insights into the epidemiology, management, and outcomes of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in adults with intended long-term follow up. The major goals of the CRIC Study are to answer two important questions: * Why does kidney disease get worse in some people, but not in others? * Why do persons with kidney disease commonly experience heart disease and stroke? The CRIC Scientific and Data Coordinating Center at Penn receives data and provides ongoing support for a number of Ancillary Studies approved by the CRIC Cohort utilizing both data collected about CRIC study participants as well as their biological samples. The CRIC Study has enrolled over 3900 men and women with CKD from 13 recruitment sites throughout the country. Following this group of individuals over the past 10 years has contributed to the knowledge of kidney disease, its treatment, and preventing its complications. The NIDDKwill be extending the study for an additional 5 years, through 2018. An extensive set of study data is collected from CRIC Study participants. With varying frequency, data are collected in the domains of medical history, physical measures, psychometrics and behaviors, biomarkers, genomics/metabolomics, as well as renal, cardiovascular and other outcomes. Measurements include creatinine clearance and iothalamate measured glomerular filtration rate. Cardiovascular measures include blood pressure, ECG, ABI, ECHO, and EBCT. Clinical CV outcomes include MI, ischemic heart disease-related death, acute coronary syndromes, congestive heart failure, cerebrovascular disease, peripheral vascular disease, and composite outcomes. The CRIC Study has delivered in excess of 150,000 bio-samples and a dataset characterizing all 3939 CRIC participants at the time of study entry to the NIDDKnational repository. The CRIC Study will also be delivering a dataset to NCBI''''s Database for Genotypes and Phenotypes.
