Brief Summary: This is a long-term randomized placebo-controlled double blind clinical study of a nutritional supplement ProStat 64 in chronic hemodialysis patients with poor nutrition Subjects receive either ProStat 64 or Placebo for three months At the end of this period all subjects will receive ProStat-64 for a further 3 months at which time the study is ended Parameters of nutritional status lean body mass and serum protein will be collected at baseline 3 months and 6 months
Detailed Description: Fifty patients identified as having poor nutrition by the following criteria

1 Average of Serum Albumin for the consecutive two months prior to inclusion 37 gdl and the serum albumin for the previous month is 37 mgdl
2 one of the four following criteria

1 Protein catabolic rate less than 10 gkgd on at least 2 occasions over the past 6 months
2 Progressive unintentional weight loss more than 25 of the initial or ideal body weight andor patients who are less than 90 of Standard Body Weight
3 Subjective Global Assessment Score consistent with Moderate to Severe Malnutrition within the last month
4 Biochemical parameters of malnutrition defined by 1 of 2 of the following measurements if available over the consecutive two months prior to inclusion

1 Serum transferrin concentration less than 225 mgdl
2 Serum prealbumin concentration less than 32 mgdl

will be randomized to receive either ProStat 64 or placebo for 3 months At Baseline a Dexa for lean body mass and labs for BUN creatinine glucose serum albumin prealbumin and C-reactive protein will be drawn Cholesterol and transferrin will be recorded from the regular monthly labs if available In addition a protein catabolic rate will be calculated and a SGA will be completed

Patients will take the supplementplacebo twice a day Measurements will be repeated at month 3 At the end of these measurements all patients will be switched to open label ProStat64 for an additional 3 months At month 6 all study procedureslabs are repeated and the study is complete
