Heart procedure to close an atrial clot risk pouch in kidney failure
This trial tests a heart procedure that closes a part of the heart called the left atrial appendage to help prevent stroke in people with an irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation) and very advanced kidney disease. It’s mainly for patients who can take the needed blood-thinner medicines and who do not already have a clot in that pouch.

Testing propionic acid to improve immune function in children with kidney failure
This study tests whether propionic acid can help the immune system work differently in children with advanced chronic kidney disease who receive regular dialysis. It may help regulate immune cells, aiming for better immune function while keeping you medically stable.
BerlinAges 12–20 - NCT07151742Enrolling by invitation
Exercise during dialysis for muscle health
This study tests whether exercise during hemodialysis can improve muscle oxygen levels and how well dialysis works. It is for people who have been on dialysis for at least a year and have muscle loss (sarcopenia).
Istanbul, KadikoyAges 18–65 - NCT04500665RecruitingPhase 2
Colchicine for kidney-related heart inflammation
This Phase 2 trial tests whether colchicine can reduce inflammation and improve heart function in people with kidney disease and a certain type of heart problem. If you qualify, you’ll be closely monitored for side effects and lab changes.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 21–80 - NCT05880914Recruiting
Personalized treatment study for bone disease in kidney failure
This trial looks at a personalized approach to diagnosing and treating bone problems caused by long-term kidney disease. It may help by matching treatment plans to the type of bone turnover found in your tests or biopsy.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT04592640RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Amniotic stem cell treatment for calciphylaxis
This early-phase study tests a stem cell therapy made from amniotic (placenta) tissue for people with calciphylaxis. If you qualify, the goal is to see whether this treatment is safe and potentially helpful for this rare, painful condition.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT01016613Enrolling by invitation
Kidney health study that helps build a tissue and data bank
This study collects health information and biological samples to better understand kidney disease and support future kidney research. It may help your care indirectly by improving how kidney conditions are recognized and studied.

Roxadustat for heart and nutrition in dialysis patients
This study tests whether roxadustat can help improve heart health, nutrition, and reduce inflammation in people on hemodialysis. It may offer a new treatment option for anemia related to kidney disease.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 106 recruiting chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis 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 chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis 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 chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis 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.
