Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if multiple doses of vancomycin over the course of 3 months will perturb the intestinal flora (microbiome) and result in reduced serum concentration of the uremic toxin indoxyl sulfate and p-cresyl sulfate. The design of the study will permit investigators to assess the variability of serum uremic retention solute concentrations with and without antibiotic over a three-month period.

Primary Outcome

Plasma concentrations of IS were measured by HPLC (high pressure liquid chromatography). Assessed weekly between day 0 and Week 4; change from baseline/day 0 to Week 4 reported

Interventions

  • OTHER Placebo
  • DRUG Vancomycin
