About this trial

Despite many advances in our understanding of the natural history and progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cardio vascular disease (CVD) in the parent CRIC study over the past 15 years, important questions about key risk factors for these diseases remain unanswered in the AI population. To address this burden of CKD in AI communities Investigators formed a consortium of investigators with extensive experience in conducting research of chronic diseases including diabetes, cardiovascular and kidney disease in AIs of Southwestern US. The proposed CRIC ancillary cohort study of 500 AIs (AI-CRIC) will rapidly improve our understanding of both potential risk factors for CKD progression, as well as the scope of this disease among AIs. This study leverages the current CRIC study and incorporates the planned activities of the next phase of the study - "CRIC 2018" - by implementing contemporary CRIC protocols for kidney and cardiovascular measurement and outcomes.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Slope of the GFR

Primary outcomes regarding Cardio vascular disease will focus on clinical events indicative of ischemic heart disease, CHF, stroke, and peripheral vascular disease supplemented by radiographic evidence of progressive CVD.

Time frame
5 years

Secondary outcomes

1

Onset of End Stage Renal Disease

The measure is reflected in decline of GFR levels

Time frame
5 years
2

Significant loss of renal function

The measure is reflected in decline of GFR levels

Time frame
5 years
3

Composite clinical outcome defined by the occurrence of either 50% decline, or 25 l/min/1.73 m2 decline in GFR from baseline, or onset of ESRD

The composite clinical outcome includes onset of End Stage Renal Disease, Significant loss of renal function or changes in proteinuria over time from baseline

Time frame
5 years
4

Slope of change in proteinuria over time

The changes in the levels of proteinuria overtime

Time frame
5 years
