Kidney & blood pressure in childhood cancer survivors
This study looks at kidney health and blood pressure in childhood cancer survivors. If you finished high-risk cancer therapy about 3 years ago, researchers want to see how your kidneys and blood pressure are doing now.
Toronto, OntarioAges Up to 19 years - NCT06383208Recruiting
Heart and kidney risk study for people with both diseases
This study looks at how well we can predict heart and kidney problems in people who have both coronary heart disease and chronic kidney disease. By analyzing certain markers, researchers hope to create a better risk assessment tool.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07814118Enrolling by invitation
Understanding how your body works during routine care
This study looks at how different body systems work together in people with various conditions and healthy volunteers. It uses routine medical tests and data to understand health better, which can help improve future care.

SingaporeAges 21–79 - NCT06794593RecruitingPhase 2
Camostat for kidney protection in chronic kidney disease
This study tests if a drug called camostat can help protect the kidneys in people with chronic kidney disease. It also includes a group of healthy volunteers for comparison.
OdenseAges 18 years+ - NCT06801262Recruiting
New Blood Test to Detect Kidney Transplant Rejection
This trial is testing a new blood test (called TreaT-Assay) to help diagnose acute rejection after a kidney transplant. The goal is to catch rejection earlier and more accurately, so you can get the right treatment faster.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT05325099RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Azacitidine to help prevent kidney injury after heart surgery
This early-phase study tests whether azacitidine (a medication that changes how cells read genes) can lower the risk of acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery, especially in people already at risk along the chronic kidney disease (CKD) pathway. It aims to protect kidney function during the vulnerable period after surgery.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT07338669Recruiting
Hamburg study on acute kidney injury in hospitalized adults
This study follows hospitalized adults with or without acute kidney injury to learn more about the condition. You may join if you are 18 or older and can give consent.
HamburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06897605RecruitingPhase 2
Dapagliflozin for anemia in kidney disease
This trial tests whether a medication called dapagliflozin can help improve anemia in people with chronic kidney disease. If you have moderate to severe kidney disease and low red blood cell counts despite taking standard anemia treatment, this study may explore a new option.
Al MansurahAges 18 years+ - NCT07231939Recruiting
Testing diabetes drugs to protect kidneys after heart procedures
This study is testing whether a class of diabetes medicines called SGLT2 inhibitors (specifically empagliflozin or dapagliflozin) can prevent kidney injury after heart procedures that use contrast dye.
BydgoszczAges 18 years+ - NCT07209527Enrolling by invitationEarly Phase 1
Truway diagnostic tools in primary care
This trial tests new diagnostic tools that doctors can use in primary care. Researchers want to see if these tools help find the right diagnosis faster and more accurately.
New York, New YorkAges Any age - NCT06935786Recruiting
Sedentary lifestyle and health risks in kidney disease
This study looks at how a sedentary (mostly sitting or lying down) lifestyle affects people with advanced chronic kidney disease. It aims to see if being less active is linked to higher risks of death or major health problems.
PoriAges 40 years+ - NCT07187713RecruitingPhase 4
Study of ACE Reno, Pico Cell Matrix for kidney health
This trial tests a new treatment called ACE Reno, Pico Cell Matrix to see if it can improve kidney function in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) at various stages. It may be an option if you have early to moderate kidney issues (including after a transplant) and are already on standard therapies.
Giza, GZAges 18–80 - NCT07182422RecruitingPhase 4
AST-120 for kidney protection after acute kidney injury
This trial tests if the drug AST-120 (Kremezin) can help protect your kidneys and slow down further kidney decline after a recent acute kidney injury. It is for people who had a moderate to severe kidney injury during a hospital stay and now have mild to moderate chronic kidney damage.
TaoyuanAges 18–80 - NCT06998862RecruitingPhase 3
Colchicine for people with chronic kidney disease
This trial tests whether colchicine, a drug that reduces inflammation, can help prevent further heart problems or strokes in people with moderate chronic kidney disease. You may be eligible if you have kidney disease and have had a heart attack, stroke, or related event in the past.
Madrid, MadridAges 18–99 - NCT05149196Recruiting
Goal-directed fluid and blood pressure plan after kidney surgery
This trial tests a carefully tailored plan for managing blood pressure and fluid during and after kidney removal surgery, to help reduce kidney injury after surgery. It may be especially helpful if you’re having one kidney removed for cancer and your baseline heart/kidney risk is not too high.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06858319RecruitingPhase 3

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for acute kidney disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 305 recruiting acute kidney disease studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a acute kidney disease trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a acute kidney disease trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
