Frailty, Inflammation, and Stem Cell Functionality in Chronic Kidney Disease

The proposed studies will examine the effect of fisetin on adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal
stem/stromal cell function, kidney function, markers of inflammation, and physical function
in individuals with advanced chronic kidney disease.

The proposed studies will examine the effect of fisetin on adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal
stem/stromal cell function, kidney function, markers of inflammation, and physical function
in individuals with advanced chronic kidney disease, particularly diabetic kidney disease.
This study will involve a single 2-day oral treatment regimen with fisetin or placebo. Study
subjects will be randomized 2:1 to study drug or placebo. Study visits will consist of blood,
urine, and abdominal wall skin and subcutaneous fat samplings in addition to testing of
physical strength at given time points. Subjects will be followed for a total of 12 months.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Age 40-80 years

- Chronic kidney disease estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) 15-60 ml/min/1.73m2

- For the diabetic kidney disease (DKD) subgroup: Diabetes mellitus (on medication)

Exclusion Criteria:

- Hemoglobin A1c>11% at screening for the DKD subgroup

- Body weight >150 kg or body mass index>50

- Pregnancy

- Active glomerulonephritis treated with immunosuppressive therapy

- Solid organ transplantation (eg. kidney, pancreas, liver, lung, heart)

- Active immunosuppression therapy

- History of active substance abuse (including alcohol) within the past 2 years,

- Current alcohol abuse (>3 alcoholic beverages/day or >21 per week),

- Human immunodeficiency virus infection

- Active hepatitis B or C infection

- Total bilirubin >2x upper limit of normal

- Uncontrolled psychiatric disorder

- Uncontrolled systemic lupus erythematosus

- Uncontrolled pleural/pericardial effusions or ascites

- New invasive cancer except non-melanoma skin cancers

- Invasive fungal or viral infection

- Inability to tolerate oral medications

- Known hypersensitivity or allergy to Fisetin

- Subjects taking medications that are sensitive to substrates or substrates with a
narrow therapeutic range for CYP3A4, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, or CYP2D6CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP1A2,
Other (OATP1B1) (Unless willing and able to stop or modify the dosing of the drug) or
strong inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A4 (e.g. cyclosporine, tacrolimus or sirolimus).

- Tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy

- Subjects on therapeutic doses of anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin, heparin, low
molecular weight heparin, factor Xa inhibitors, etc.).

- Subjects on full-dose 325 mg aspirin or other anti-platelet agents (eg. clopidogrel)
daily who are unable or unwilling to reduce or hold therapy prior to and during the
2-day drug dosing. Subjects may continue their previous regimen on day 3.

- Baby aspirin (81 mg), if necessary for cardioprotection, will be allowed but
encouraged to hold.

- Subjects taking proton pump inhibitors who are unable or unwilling to reduce or hold
therapy prior to and during the 2-day drug dosing. (See Appendix 4)

- Subjects taking glimepiride or glyburide for diabetes therapy who are unable or
unwilling to reduce or hold therapy prior to and during the 2-day drug dosing.

- Subjects taking the following antimicrobial agents: Aminoglycosides, Azole antifungals
(fluconazole, miconazole, voriconazole, itraconazole), Macrolides (clarithromycin,
erythromycin), Antivirals (nelfinavir, indinavir, saquinavir, ritonavir,
elbasvir/grazoprevir), Rifampin

- Corrected QT interval (QTc) >450 msec

- Tobacco use (smoking or chewing; Unless subject willing to reduce use by 50% prior to
and during the study) - see Behavioral Modification information below.

- Inability to give informed consent
