Pediatric Hydroxyurea Phase III Clinical Trial (BABY HUG)[NCT00006400]Phase 3193 participants (Actual)Interventional2000-08-31Completed

Trial Outcomes

Change From Baseline in the Renal Function That Was Measured by Diethylenetriaminepentaacetic Acid (DTPA) Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR)

DTPA GFR was originally a co-primary efficacy outcome for the study. Later in May 29, 2009, this measurement was discontinued because of statistical futility (an extremely small chance that the difference between treatment groups would be statistically significant for this outcome) and the small risk posed by the radiation exposure involved with performing the DTPA GFR test. Subjects who had missing data at baseline or 2 years measurement were excluded from the analysis (29 subjects from the hydroxurea, and 31 subjects from the placebo group excluded). (NCT00006400)
Timeframe: Before initiation of treatment and at 2 years

InterventionmL/min/1.73m^2 (Mean)
Hydroxyurea22.56
Placebo20.74

Change From Baseline in the Renal Function That Was Measured by GFR (Calculated Using New Schwartz Formula)

GFR was calculated using new Schwartz formula: 39.1× [height (cm)/serum creatinine (mg/dL)]0.516 × [1.8/cystatin C]0.294 × [30/blood urea nitrogen]0.169 × [1.099]if male × [height(m)/1.4]0.188. Children with missing baseline or 2 years GFR were excluded from the analysis. (NCT00006400)
Timeframe: Before initiation of treatment and at 2 years

Placebo14.33

Change From Baseline in the Renal Function That Was Measured by Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) (Calculated Using Schwartz Formula)

Schwartz formula used to calculate GFR is: 0.55× height (cm)/serum creatinine (mg/dL). Where height is in cm and serum creatinine is in mg/dL. Children with missing baseline or 2 years GFR were excluded from the analysis. (NCT00006400)
