Empagliflozin to preserve kidney function in new peritoneal dialysis patients
This trial tests whether empagliflozin, a medication originally for diabetes, can help protect the remaining kidney function in people who have just started peritoneal dialysis. If you started dialysis within the last 3 months and still make some urine, this study may be a good fit.
Hong KongAges 18–75 - NCT06906835Recruiting
Comparing two blood tests to guide iron treatment in dialysis patients
This trial tests whether a new blood test (reticulocyte hemoglobin) is better than the usual iron test (transferrin saturation) for guiding when to give iron to people on dialysis. If you have anemia (low red blood cells) from kidney disease, this study may help doctors find the best way to treat your iron levels.
Pathumwan, BangkokAges 18–80 - NCT06794216Recruiting
Comparing dialysis methods to clean blood in kidney failure
This study compares different types of dialysis to see which removes waste products (uremic toxins) best from the blood. If you have been on dialysis for at least 6 months and use the same filter for a year, this trial may help find a better way to clean your blood.
Bologna, Emilia-RomagnaAges 18 years+ - NCT04180085RecruitingPhase 2
Belatacept to protect kidneys in heart transplant patients
This trial studies whether belatacept can be used after a heart transplant to help protect kidney function over time. It focuses on people who already have (or are at risk for) worsening kidney function after transplant, while avoiding those with certain infections or rejection concerns.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT07120464Recruiting
Rabies vaccine study for people with weak immune systems or older age
This study tests how well a rabies vaccine works and how safe it is for people whose immune systems may be weaker, such as those with certain long-term illnesses, organ transplants, or age 60 and older. It compares them to healthy adults ages 18 to 59.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges Any age - NCT07441655Recruiting
Family program for healthy habits and preventing diabetes
This study helps Black parents with prediabetes and their children make healthy lifestyle changes together to prevent diabetes. It lasts about 20 months and involves physical activity and nutrition support.
Albany, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06708338Recruiting
Bevel direction during dialysis fistula puncture
This study looks at which way the needle bevel should face when starting dialysis through a new fistula. It might help reduce pain or damage to the fistula.
Le Puy-en-VelayAges 18–85 - NCT07705269Recruiting
High-rate fluid removal for fluid overload in dialysis patients
This trial tests whether a faster rate of fluid removal during dialysis can help hospitalized patients with end-stage kidney disease who have severe fluid buildup. It aims to reduce fluid congestion and improve outcomes.
Monterrey, Nuevo LeónAges 18 years+ - NCT03321656RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Envarsus XR after kidney transplant to reduce hidden rejection
This study looks at whether Envarsus XR helps prevent “subclinical” (not obviously noticeable) kidney transplant rejection by changing blood immune test results. You may be able to join if you recently received a kidney transplant and can take the study medicine as required.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18–75 - NCT03862859RecruitingPhase 4
Warfarin safety for people with atrial fibrillation on dialysis
This trial studies whether the blood thinner warfarin is safe and effective for preventing stroke and blood clots in people who have atrial fibrillation and need long-term dialysis. It may help your care team better balance clot prevention against bleeding risk.
Herlev, HerlevAges 18 years+ - NCT04823923Recruiting
How kidney failure affects drug levels in metastatic kidney cancer
This study looks at how chronic kidney failure changes the amount of certain cancer medicines in the blood. It involves people with metastatic clear cell kidney cancer who take pazopanib or cabozantinib, and compares drug levels in different kidney function groups.

Drug-coated balloon for severe leg artery blockage in lower legs
This trial studies a “drug-coated balloon” procedure to improve blood flow in people with severe, long-lasting poor circulation in the lower leg arteries. It may help reduce repeat blockage after treatment for selected artery lesions below the knee.

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.
