Recovering from kidney failure after dialysis in hospital
This study looks at how patients recover from acute kidney injury that needs dialysis after they leave the hospital. It aims to understand and improve care during the transition to outpatient dialysis.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT07197957Recruiting
Using a blood test to detect kidney injury from contrast dye
This study tests if a simple blood test (cystatin) can detect kidney damage earlier in people with chronic kidney disease who receive contrast dye for imaging. It could help doctors act faster to protect kidneys.
Clearwater, FloridaAges 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.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18–80 - 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+ - NCT07232277Recruiting
Vein congestion and kidney injury after heart surgery
This trial looks at how fluid buildup in veins might relate to kidney injury after planned heart surgery. It aims to find ways to prevent kidney damage. Participants must be having planned (non-emergency) heart surgery, be 18 or older, and have healthy kidneys and overall health.
Yangzhou, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07236463RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Iron chelator in dialysis fluid for sepsis-related kidney injury
This trial tests if adding an iron chelator (MEX-CD1) to the dialysis fluid can help remove harmful iron from the blood in patients with sepsis-related acute kidney injury who need continuous dialysis. It may reduce damage to the kidneys and other organs.
Nîmes, GardAges 18 years+ - NCT07258875Recruiting
Using ultrasound to guide fluids during lung surgery
This study tests if using a special ultrasound exam (VExUS) to guide fluid management during lung surgery can help reduce complications like lung problems or kidney injury. It may help doctors give you just the right amount of fluids.
Heraklion, CreteAges 18 years+ - NCT07262320Recruiting
Kidney treatment in Latin American ICUs
This study looks at how dialysis (renal replacement therapy) is used for patients in intensive care units (ICUs) with severe acute kidney injury in Latin America. Your participation can help improve care for people with kidney problems.
CochabambaAges 18 years+ - NCT07326215Recruiting
A study of a device that removes carbon dioxide from the blood
This trial tests a device called PrismaLung+ that helps remove extra carbon dioxide from the blood of patients on breathing machines. It may help people whose lungs are struggling despite gentle ventilation settings.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07338669Recruiting

Testing a drug to prevent kidney injury after heart surgery
This study tests a new medicine, BX-001N, to see if it can prevent kidney damage during and after heart surgery for aortic disease. It is for people with moderate kidney problems who are having planned surgery that stops the heart briefly.
DaeguAges 19–90 - NCT07351149Recruiting
Study on kidney injury after major surgery in children

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for acute kidney injury?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 199 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.
