Recruiting studies
- NCT03054142Recruiting
Study tracking kidney injury using blood creatinine changes
This study looks at people with acute (sudden) kidney injury, based on changes in a blood test called creatinine. By tracking these patterns during hospitalization, it may help improve how acute kidney injury is identified and managed.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges Any age - NCT04722939Recruiting
Testing brain function outcomes after ICU kidney failure treatment
This trial studies how treating severe kidney injury in the ICU may affect patients’ brain and thinking function over time. It compares measurements of brain activity and function after starting kidney replacement therapy.
Kingston, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT04442516Recruiting
Testing kidney injury risk from cisplatin cancer treatment
This study looks at how cisplatin chemotherapy affects the kidneys. It may help doctors better predict and protect against kidney damage when patients start cisplatin.
London, OntarioAges 3 months+ - NCT06153147Recruiting

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 - 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.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07805564Recruiting

This trial tests whether personalized care can prevent acute kidney injury (sudden kidney damage) after heart or major blood vessel surgery. If you are having planned heart valve repair, bypass, or aortic surgery, you may be able to join.
BernAges 18 years+ - NCT07735182Recruiting
Gut bacteria and organ damage in sepsis
This study looks at how bacteria in your gut and other signs in your body affect liver and kidney damage in people with sepsis. It also compares findings to healthy volunteers to see what is different.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT07734636RecruitingPhase 4
Restarting blood pressure meds after kidney injury
This study tests whether safely restarting a common blood pressure or kidney medicine (an ACE inhibitor or ARB) after a kidney injury can help protect your kidneys and heart. It might be a good option if your kidney function is improving and you aren't on dialysis.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07683975RecruitingPhase 4
Infliximab for kidney injury caused by immunotherapy
This study tests whether infliximab can treat kidney damage caused by immune checkpoint inhibitor cancer therapy. It aims to see if this medication helps patients recover kidney function after injury from their cancer treatment.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07670520Recruiting
Acute Kidney Injury Care Transitions Study
This study helps improve care for people with moderate to severe acute kidney injury when they leave the hospital. It tests a program to make sure patients get the right follow-up once they go home.
Mankato, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT07661940RecruitingPhase 2
SP16 for kidney protection during heart surgery
This trial tests a drug called SP16 to see if it can prevent acute kidney injury in people with chronic kidney disease who are having elective heart surgery with a heart-lung machine. It aims to help preserve kidney function after surgery.
Erlangen, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT06685367Recruiting
AI software for predicting acute kidney injury in ICU
This trial tests software that uses artificial intelligence to predict if a patient in the ICU might develop acute kidney injury (sudden kidney damage). It aims to see if the software is cost-effective and could help doctors catch problems earlier.
TaichungAges 20 years+ - NCT07653321Enrolling by invitation
Kidney injury in critically ill patients
This study looks at acute kidney injury in patients who are very sick in the intensive care unit (ICU). It may help doctors better understand and manage kidney problems in these patients.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07643597Recruiting
Managing fluid removal in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury
This study looks at how to safely remove excess fluid from patients in the ICU who have sudden kidney failure and are on a special blood-filtering machine (CRRT). Researchers want to understand which patients have trouble tolerating fluid removal and how to prevent complications.
SalvadorAges 18 years+ - NCT07625553RecruitingPhase 2
Relaxin Agonist to Protect Kidneys During Heart Surgery
This study tests whether a drug called R2R01 can help protect your kidneys during major heart surgery. Heart surgery can sometimes damage the kidneys, and this trial is looking to see if this new medication reduces that risk.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06714409Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided fluid removal in hospitalized heart failure
This study tests whether using ultrasound-guided treatment to reduce fluid buildup in the body can help people hospitalized for worsening heart failure feel better faster. It's for adults admitted with heart failure and high BNP levels.
OsloAges 18 years+ - NCT07596043Recruiting
Higher protein for intensive care patients with kidney failure
This study compares giving a higher amount of protein to a standard amount in ICU patients with sudden kidney failure who need dialysis. The goal is to see if more protein helps recovery.
Bangkok, BangkokAges 18 years+ - NCT06372444Recruiting
Kidney injury in severe infections study
This study looks at how severe infections like sepsis can hurt the kidneys. By using special scans (PET-CT), researchers hope to better understand why this happens, which could lead to better treatments.
UppsalaAges 30 years+ - NCT07569588Recruiting
Understanding kidney injury recovery after hospitalization
This study helps doctors better assess how well kidneys recover after acute kidney injury (a sudden loss of kidney function during hospitalization). You may be asked to participate in interviews, workshops, or have some medical measurements taken to help improve patient care.
Derby, DerbyshireAges 18–85 - NCT06472999Recruiting
Kidney protection in critically ill ICU patients
This trial tests ways to protect the kidneys in intensive-care patients who have moderate or severe acute kidney injury. If you are on a ventilator or medications to support blood pressure, this study may offer extra kidney care to help prevent further damage.
InnsbruckAges 18 years+ - NCT07549243Recruiting
Ear Nerve Stimulation to Protect Kidneys During Heart Surgery
This trial tests whether gentle electrical stimulation applied to your ear can help protect your kidneys during heart surgery that uses a heart-lung machine. Kidney damage after this type of surgery is common, and researchers want to see if this non-invasive stimulation can prevent it.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT07550790Recruiting
Preventing kidney injury during heart failure imaging scans
This study tests whether a specific water-based medication can prevent kidney damage when patients with acute heart failure need a CT scan with contrast dye. The trial focuses on people with mild-to-moderate kidney problems who are hospitalized for fluid buildup in the heart.
Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 20 years+ - NCT06632613RecruitingPhase 2
Trial of ENN0403 to prevent kidney injury after heart surgery
This study tests a new drug (ENN0403) given during heart surgery to see if it prevents acute kidney injury—a sudden drop in kidney function. The trial is for people who are already at higher risk due to their specific heart surgery and other health factors.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for acute kidney injury?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 198 recruiting acute kidney injury 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 injury 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 injury 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.
