Study Summary

The overall objective of this pilot randomized clinical trial is to determine whether low-dose Colchicine (LoDoCo) improves vascular disease including vascular calcification, peripheral arterial disease (PAD), and chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) biomarkers in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 3 over a 12-month intervention period, compared with usual care. Successful completion of this study will generate critical preliminary data to support a larger clinical trial aimed at evaluating inflammation-targeted therapies to mitigate CKD-MBD, including vascular calcification and related PAD, as well as osteoporosis, ultimately reducing cardiovascular events and mortality in patients with CKD. Additionally, this work has the potential to redefine the diagnostic framework for CKD-MBD.

Primary Outcome

Agatston scores (Agatston units) will be measured by non-contrast cardiac computed tomography (CCT) scans following standard cardiac imaging protocols. Coronary artery calcification will be quantified using the Coronary Artery Calcium (CAC) Agatston Score. Scores range from 0 Agatston units (no detectable coronary calcification), 1-99 Agatston units (mild calcification), 100-399 Agatston units (moderate calcification), and ≥400 Agatston units (severe calcification, high atherosclerotic burden).
