Recruiting studies in Maryland
- NCT04334707Recruiting
Study kidney damage in people with long-term diabetes
This study is looking at different kidney health patterns in people with diabetes, especially diabetic kidney disease and people who have not developed kidney damage despite long-term diabetes. It may help researchers understand why kidney problems happen—and what protective factors might prevent them.

SeLective blood-filter trial for acute kidney injury in ICU
This trial tests a special device that filters parts of the blood to calm inflammation in people with severe acute kidney injury in the ICU. It may help improve recovery and reduce complications by “deactivating” certain immune cells.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06802224RecruitingPhase 4
Medication to prevent kidney injury after major surgery
This study compares two medications given during surgery to see which one better protects the kidneys after the procedure. If you are having major non-cardiac surgery that lasts at least 2 hours and you need medication to support your blood pressure, this trial may be a good fit.
College Park, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06840210Recruiting
Decision support for acute kidney injury in the emergency room
This study tests a decision-support tool to help emergency room doctors better detect and manage acute kidney injury (a sudden drop in kidney function). It may lead to earlier treatment and better outcomes for patients.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07215702RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a drug for kidney injury from sepsis in the ICU
This trial tests if a new drug, AZD4144, can help people with sepsis-related acute kidney injury in the ICU. It aims to see if the drug can improve kidney recovery and reduce complications.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–80 - NCT06823115Enrolling by invitation
Worldwide study of kidney injury in newborns
This study looks at how common acute kidney injury is in newborns in the intensive care unit. It helps doctors understand which babies are at risk and how to prevent kidney problems.
Baltimore, MarylandAges birth–2 weeks - NCT05349292Recruiting
Check hemodilution’s effect on urine kidney stress markers
This study tests a technique used during planned heart bypass surgery to see whether it changes substances measured in urine that reflect kidney stress or injury. If you have upcoming elective bypass surgery, your team may collect blood and urine samples to study how your kidneys respond.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–70 - NCT06027788Recruiting
Embolic protection during heart valve surgery
This trial tests a device that may help protect your brain from small particles during heart valve surgery. It is for people 60 and older having certain types of valve replacement or repair.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 60 years+ - NCT05805709Recruiting
COPE-AKI: A care plan for people hospitalized with serious AKI
This trial tests a patient-centered plan for how care is organized and communicated for people hospitalized with serious, persistent kidney injury (AKI). The goal is to improve the experience and possibly outcomes by making care more consistent and easier to follow.

What taking part in a acute kidney injury study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there acute kidney injury clinical trials in Maryland?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 9 recruiting acute kidney injury studies with a site in Maryland, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a acute kidney injury study in Maryland?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Maryland to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Maryland, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a acute kidney injury trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
