Nicotinamide Riboside Supplementation for Treating Arterial Stiffness and Elevated Systolic Blood Pressure in Patients With Moderate to Severe CKD


Sponsor: University of Colorado, Denver
Collaborator: National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK)

Purpose

Assess the safety and efficacy of oral nicotinamide riboside for 3 months vs. placebo for decreasing aortic stiffness and SBP in patients with stage III and IV CKD. Hypothesize that treatment will reduce CFPWV and SBP, as related to increases in systemic NAD+ bioavailability and reductions in oxidative stress, and inflammation.
