ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT07511283Recruiting
Calciphylaxis study in kidney disease patients
This study looks at a rare condition called calciphylaxis (hardening of small blood vessels) that can happen in people with chronic kidney disease. It aims to learn more about what causes it and how to help those affected.
OdenseAges 18 years+ - NCT07518719Recruiting
Nutrition and Wellness Program for Kidney Disease
This study tests whether a nutrition and wellness program helps people with early-stage kidney disease manage their condition better. The program combines nutrition guidance, support for lifestyle changes, and care coordination to help protect kidney health.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07522008Recruiting
Testing a blood-cleaning add-on for dialysis symptom relief
This trial tests whether adding a special blood-filtering device (hemoadsorption) to your regular dialysis treatment can reduce uncomfortable symptoms caused by kidney failure, like fatigue or itching. Researchers will track how you feel over time compared to standard dialysis alone.
Cagliari, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT07547098Recruiting
Heart, Kidney, and Metabolism Health Long-Term Study
This research study tracks patients with heart disease, kidney disease, or metabolic conditions (like diabetes) over time to understand how these conditions connect and affect long-term health. By collecting medical records and health information, researchers aim to predict outcomes and improve care.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–80 - NCT07561957Recruiting
Smartphone app to help manage chronic kidney disease
This study tests a smartphone app designed to help people with chronic kidney disease (CKD)—a condition where the kidneys don't filter blood as well as they should—follow the latest medical guidelines. The app aims to make it easier for younger adults to stay on top of their kidney health and treatment.
DublinAges 16–30 - NCT07572890RecruitingPhase 1

Red Propolis Supplement for Kidney Disease Management
This study tests whether red propolis, a natural bee product, might help slow kidney disease progression in people with moderate to advanced chronic kidney disease who aren't yet on dialysis. Researchers believe its anti-inflammatory properties could support kidney health.
Rio de Janeiro, Rio de JaneiroAges 18–65 - NCT07607197RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Immune Reset to Help Highly Sensitized Kidney Transplant Patients
This study tests whether a special immune-resetting treatment can help patients who have developed too many antibodies against donor kidneys get access to a compatible kidney transplant.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chronic kidney disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 571 recruiting chronic kidney disease 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 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 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.
