Recruit Status: Active, not recruiting
Study Type: Interventional
Official Title: Investigations Into the Genotype and Phenotype of Unclassified Hyperoxaluria: Enteric Oxalate Absorption Study
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to learn more about a condition called 'unclassified hyperoxaluria'. People with this condition have large amounts of oxalate in their urine, which can cause kidney stones and kidney failure. We do not know what causes the high level of oxalate in the urine. In this study, we will evaluate absorption of a test dose of oxalate taken orally by measuring the amount of the test dose that is eliminated in the urine. We will compare the results of affected patients to healthy volunteers.
Detailed Summary: Participants' oxalate intake and output will be monitored and assessed over a 24 hour period. Participants will ingest a prescribed oxalate dose and urine oxalate will be monitored for the 24 hour study period.

Current Primary Outcome: Urine oxalate measured following absorption of oral oxalate dose [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
Original Primary Outcome: To gain knowledge on how oxalate in the diet affects Enteric Hyperoxaluria [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
