Protocol summary

Summary
Ultimate Goal: Evaluating the effect of atorvastatin on metabolic abnormalities, tubular injury and oxidative stress in recurrent calcium stone patients. Specific Objectives: 1. Evaluating the effect of atorvastatin on urine Malondialdehyde, as oxidative stress index, and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, as tubular injury index, in recurrent calcium stone patients. 2. Evaluating the effect of atorvastatin on morning urine pH and 24-hour urine oxalate, calcium, magnesium, creatinine, sodium, potassium, citrate, calcium oxalate relative supersaturation (RSS), calcium phosphate RSS and uric acid RSS in recurrent calcium stone patients. Study Design: Pilot double-blinded randomized clinical trial. Study Population: Recurrent stone forming patients with hyperoxaluria, recruited from the nephrolithiasis prevention clinic at Labbafinejad Hospital. Study groups: Two groups receiving either Atorvastatin (20 mg per day) or placebo, for 3 months. Sample size: 15 patients will be recruited in each group because of the pilot design of the study. Patients will be randomly divided between the groups. Study variable: Main variables: oxidative stress index (Malondialdehyde) and tubular injury index ( neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin). Secondary variables: Morning urine pH, 24-hour urine oxalate, calcium, magnesium, creatinine, sodium, potassium, citrate, calcium oxalate RSS, calcium phosphate RSS and uric acid RSS.

Purpose
Prevention
Inclusion/Exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: History of calcium kidney stone (stone should be radio-opaque in radiological evaluation); at least 2 times of kidney stone episodes (Recurrent stone); at least 20 days since the last treatment; age 18 to 65 years; Hyperoxaluria (24-hour urine oxalate over 40 and less than 80 mg); willingness to cooperate in the study. Exclusion criteria: Primary or enteric hyperoxaluria (urine oxalate>80 mg/24h);taking any drugs or supplements with antioxidant or anti-inflammatory effects (e.g. steroids, Nonsteroidal Antiinflammatory Drugs, pioglitazone, …), multivitamins containing vitamin A,C or E and any supplement containing anti-oxidants; History of diabetes mellitus, hepatic failure, thyroid or parathyroid diseases, cancers or immunologic diseases, chronic kidney disease (Glomerular filtration rate< 60), Urinary tract infection and chronic diarrhea; Pregnancy or lactation

Other design features
Patients will be randomly divided between two groups (using a block randomization design) and will receive three months of drug or placebo accordingly. In order to make the study double blind, one of the project colleagues will code the drugs or placebo and the codes will be kept until the end of the study analyses. The drugs and placebo will be identical and principal investigators who will carry out sampling and testing will be unaware until the end of the study.
