Winnipeg, ManitobaAges 18 years+ - NCT07285122RecruitingPhase 1
Inhaled study drug for healthy smokers and people with COPD
This study tests an inhaled medication called RB042 in healthy adults, healthy smokers, and people with COPD. It aims to see how the drug works in the body and whether it is safe, which could help in developing a new treatment for COPD.
Nedlands, Western AustraliaAges 18–80 - NCT06585774RecruitingPhase 3
Axatilimab plus steroids for new chronic GVHD
This study tests a new drug called axatilimab combined with steroids as a first treatment for chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after a stem cell transplant. It aims to see if this combination helps control symptoms better than steroids alone.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 12 years+ - NCT06903559RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
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.
Al Mansurah, DakahliyaAges 18 years+ - NCT05728216Recruiting
Using a special eye-scan to study kidney biopsy samples
This study tests whether a noninvasive “eye-scan” during a kidney biopsy can help doctors tell the difference between acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease. If it works, it may improve how kidney problems are diagnosed in routine practice.
Chalon-sur-Saône, Saône-et-LoireAges 18 years+ - NCT06925217Recruiting
Closed-loop insulin for type 2 diabetes and kidney disease
This study tests whether a special type of insulin delivery system (closed-loop) can help people with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease. You'll wear a continuous glucose monitor and insulin pump, and researchers will track how your kidneys respond over time.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chronic renal disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 341 recruiting chronic renal 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 renal 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 renal 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.
