Recruiting studies

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 - NCT07013175Recruiting

This study looks at how decisions are made in the ICU. It may help improve care for adult patients in Swedish intensive care units.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT07017933Recruiting
Kidney support device for heart surgery patients
This trial tests a new device that helps support kidney function during heart surgery. It is for people with mild to moderate kidney problems who are having bypass or valve surgery.
Weston, FloridaAges 22–85 - NCT07084129RecruitingPhase 1
Vancomycin and kidney injury study for children with sepsis
This trial tests a different way of giving vancomycin to children with sepsis to reduce the risk of kidney injury. It compares standard dosing to an approach that adjusts dose based on how the kidneys are working.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 1 month–17 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 - NCT07294859Recruiting
Ultrasound to predict kidney function after kidney removal
This trial uses special ultrasound techniques to predict how well your remaining kidney will work after surgery to remove part or all of one kidney. It may help doctors understand your recovery and tailor follow-up care.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT00948116Recruiting
Blood and urine tests to predict kidney injury in diabetes
This study checks whether a set of blood and urine tests can predict “acute kidney injury” (a sudden worsening of kidney function) earlier in people with diabetes who are undergoing a heart procedure. If the tests work, they may help doctors spot kidney trouble sooner and protect your kidneys.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07418242Recruiting
New markers for kidney risk after heart surgery
This study looks at whether certain blood or urine markers can predict kidney problems in people having high-risk heart surgery. The goal is to find early warning signs so doctors can take steps to protect your kidneys.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–90 - NCT07447791Recruiting
Comparing low vs standard dialysis in ICU patients
This trial compares a lower dose versus a standard dose of continuous kidney replacement therapy (CRRT) for critically ill patients with acute kidney injury (AKI — sudden kidney failure). It aims to see if lower doses are safe and effective.
London, Greater LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07514650Recruiting
Citrate Blood Thinner Safety in Critical Kidney Care
This study tests whether a specific blood-thinning method using citrate works safely and effectively in critically ill patients whose kidneys have suddenly stopped working and need a special filtering machine. Researchers want to confirm that this approach prevents dangerous blood clots while keeping patients safe.
Barcelona, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07627880Recruiting
Kidney Stone Blockage: Best Drainage Method Before Removal
This study compares two ways to drain urine when a kidney stone completely blocks the ureter (the tube from kidney to bladder) in patients with only one working kidney. After your kidney recovers, doctors will remove the stone using a minimally invasive camera procedure.
Banī Suwayf, Beni Suweif GovernorateAges 18 years+ - NCT07635160Recruiting
Kidney Blood Flow Monitoring During Minimally Invasive Abdominal Surgery
This research study tests two imaging methods—ultrasound and a special light-based scanner—to monitor how well your kidneys receive blood during minimally invasive abdominal surgery. The goal is to understand kidney function better during this type of operation.
IstanbulAges 18–80 - NCT07428395Enrolling by invitation
Monitoring during continuous kidney replacement therapy in the ICU
This study tests a new way to monitor patients while they receive continuous kidney replacement therapy (a type of dialysis) in the ICU. It aims to see if this monitoring can be done safely and smoothly, helping doctors track your treatment better.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03541785Enrolling by invitation
Using NGAL to guide fluids and start kidney-filtering in children
This study tests whether measuring a urine protein called NGAL can help doctors choose the right fluid amount and decide when to start a kidney-filtering treatment called CRRT in critically ill children with kidney injury. If it works, it may help treat kidney problems sooner and more safely.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 3 months–25 years - NCT05397392Recruiting
Diagnosis and treatment plan for heart–kidney problems
This study looks at the best way to diagnose and treat different types of heart-and-kidney problems that happen together. It may help you (or your caregiver) get the right classification and treatment approach based on how your heart and kidneys are affected.
NanjingAges 18 years+ - NCT06847555RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Taurine cream to prevent skin burns from radiation in breast cancer
This trial tests if a taurine cream applied to the skin can prevent or reduce the painful skin reactions caused by radiation therapy for breast cancer. It may offer a simple way to protect your skin during treatment.

Study of NG004 for recent spinal cord injury
This trial tests a new medicine called NG004 for people who have recently had a spinal cord injury in the neck area (cervical spine) and still have some movement and feeling. The goal is to see if it can help improve recovery.

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.
