Endogenous Oxalate Synthesis in Idiopathic Calcium Oxalate Kidney Stone Disease (NCT06989320)
Endogenous Oxalate Synthesis in Idiopathic Calcium Oxalate Kidney Stone Formers
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The goal of this clinical trial study is to test if patients with idiopathic calcium oxalate kidney stones have an increased production of oxalate by the body, which would lead to increased urinary excretion of oxalate. The study will recruit adult patients with a history of calcium oxalate kidney stones and healthy volunteers without kidney stones. Participants will ingest fixed diets containing low amounts of oxalate for 5 days ingest a soluble form of glycolate and vitamin C collect urine, blood, stool during the dietary and oral dosing portions of the study and also collect breath sample during the oral glycolate test
