Sponsor's own description

The primary purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of adrenal insufficiency in a population of patients with kidney transplants receiving low dose prednisone treatment. Development of glucocorticoid-induced adrenal insufficiency is a serious adverse effect to glucocorticoid treatment. The study includes a control group of patients with kidney failure currently treated in dialysis, who are not in glucocorticoid treatment. Individual genotyping is performed to determine the haplotype of glucocorticoid receptor polymorphisms: N363 S, BclI, ER23/23EK and 9β in all the patients with the purpose of investigating this as a risk factor for the development of adrenal insufficiency. The hypothesis is that subjects with one or another of the polymorphisms in the glucocorticoid receptor gene will either have increased or diminished glucocorticoid sensitivity. Using validated questionnaires assessing the quality of life and functional level of the patients enrolled in the study we aim to establish a link between functional level and biochemically proven adrenal insufficiency. Other secondary outcomes in the study includes bloodpressure, body composition, bone density, metabolic syndrome, inflammation and salivary cortisol profiles.
