Heart and kidney study of SGLT2 inhibitors
This study looks at whether a type of diabetes medicine called SGLT2 inhibitors (also known as flozins) can help protect the heart and kidneys in people with both heart failure with preserved pumping function and moderate chronic kidney disease, with or without diabetes.
IașiAges 18 years+ - NCT06234592Recruiting
Blood pressure medicines and kidney health in septic shock
This trial tests whether different blood pressure medicines protect kidney function better in people with septic shock (a severe infection that causes low blood pressure). It compares norepinephrine (the standard treatment) with other options to see which is best for the kidneys.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07222722Recruiting
Brain oxygen monitoring for preterm babies and kidney health
This trial uses a special monitor to check oxygen levels in the brain of very premature babies. It aims to see if low oxygen affects kidney health.
New York, New YorkAges 6 months–7 months - NCT07229040RecruitingPhase 2
Kidney protection during heated chemotherapy surgery for ovarian cancer
This trial tests two drugs (cilastatin and thiosulfate) to see which one better protects the kidneys during surgery that uses heated cisplatin chemotherapy directly in the abdomen. It is for women with advanced ovarian cancer whose disease is mostly in the belly.
Madrid, MadridAges 18–75 - NCT07216391RecruitingPhase 2
Trial to delay type 1 diabetes: teplizumab vs. ATG
This study compares two medicines (teplizumab and anti-thymocyte globulin) to see if they can delay the onset of type 1 diabetes in people who are at high risk but don't have symptoms yet. If you have certain diabetes-related antibodies in your blood, this trial might help keep full-blown diabetes away for longer.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 4–34 - NCT06917859RecruitingPhase 1
Steroid to protect kidneys during heart surgery
This trial is testing whether a single dose of the steroid methylprednisolone, given before heart surgery, can protect your kidneys from damage during the operation. If you qualify, you'll receive the drug or a placebo, and your kidney function will be monitored closely.
Cairo, AbbasiaAges 18–65 - NCT06547892RecruitingPhase 2
Vasopressin to prevent kidney injury in the ICU

SGLT2 inhibitor heart health study in dialysis patients
This study tests whether a medicine called an SGLT2 inhibitor (a type of diabetes drug also used for heart failure) affects the heart and blood vessels in people with kidney failure who are on dialysis. It will help doctors understand if this medicine is safe and helpful for dialysis patients.

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.
