Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

net ultrafiltration efficiency in mL/g
Calculated at baseline and at the end of the 6 week intervention period

Ultrafiltration Efficiency (UFE): UFE is defined as the amount of 24 hour net Ultrafiltration (UF) obtained for every gram of carbohydrate absorbed from the dialysis solution. 1. 24-hour net ultrafiltration (in mL) is recorded automatically by the Automated Peritoneal Dialysis (APD) cycler. 2. Carbohydrate absorption is determined by calculating the difference (in grams) between the amount of glucose (measured by lab analysis) in the 24 hr peritoneal effluent, and the amount of glucose in the patient's dialysis prescription. 3. UFE will be calculated in mL/g (ie a divided by b)

Secondary Endpoints

24-hour absolute total carbohydrate absorption
Calculated at baseline and at the end of the 6 week intervention period
24-hour urine volume
Calculated at baseline and at the end of the 6 week intervention period
24-hour net sodium removal (in both peritoneal effluent and urine)
Calculated at baseline and at the end of the 6 week intervention period

Frequently asked questions about bimodal

What is bimodal used for in End Stage Renal Disease?

Bimodal is an investigational small molecule being studied for use in End Stage Renal Disease, specifically as a peritoneal dialysis solution. It is being developed by Baxter International Inc. (BAX) and is currently in Phase 2 clinical development.

What does bimodal target?

Bimodal is a small molecule, but its specific molecular target has not been disclosed. It is being studied for its potential use in peritoneal dialysis for patients with End Stage Renal Disease, though the exact mechanism of action is not publicly detailed.

Who makes bimodal?

Bimodal is being developed by Baxter International Inc., a company traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol BAX. The drug is currently in Phase 2 clinical development for End Stage Renal Disease.

What phase is bimodal in?

Bimodal is in Phase 2 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by regulatory authorities. One Phase 2 clinical trial has been completed, with no active trials currently ongoing.

What clinical trials is bimodal in?

Bimodal has been studied in one completed Phase 2 clinical trial, identified as NCT01242904, titled 'Use of a Bimodal Solution for Peritoneal Dialysis.' This trial enrolled 36 participants with End Stage Renal Disease in Canada and was a randomized, double-blind, active-controlled study.

Is bimodal the same as a peritoneal dialysis solution?

Bimodal is being studied as a peritoneal dialysis solution for patients with End Stage Renal Disease. The completed Phase 2 trial, NCT01242904, evaluated its use in this setting, comparing it against an active control in a randomized, double-blind design.
