Recruiting studies
- NCT06278207Recruiting
Finerenone in real-world diabetes and kidney disease
This study looks at how the medication finerenone works in everyday medical practice for people with type 2 diabetes and certain stages of chronic kidney disease. It aims to see how safe and effective the treatment is outside of a clinical trial setting.

Rituximab plus cyclosporine for membranous kidney disease
This trial tests whether rituximab (an immune-targeting medicine) plus cyclosporine (another immune medicine) can better control protein leakage in the urine for people with idiopathic membranous nephropathy. It may help reduce long-lasting kidney damage risk when standard treatments like ACE inhibitor or ARB don’t control the protein level.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–90 - NCT04969926Recruiting
Study of parathyroid problems in children and adults
This is an observational study that follows people who have or may develop parathyroid-related conditions. The goal is to better understand how these problems change over time and what patterns show up, which can help improve future care.

Trial to delay type 1 diabetes: teplizumab vs. ATG
This study compares two medicines (teplizumab and anti-thymocyte globulin) to see if they can delay the onset of type 1 diabetes in people who are at high risk but don't have symptoms yet. If you have certain diabetes-related antibodies in your blood, this trial might help keep full-blown diabetes away for longer.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 4–34 - NCT07106879Recruiting
Pre-screening for future metabolic and psychiatric studies
This study does not test a new treatment. It is a pre-screening program to see if you might qualify for future clinical trials on metabolic conditions (like diabetes or weight issues) or psychiatric health (like depression or anxiety). You will be asked some questions and may do some basic health checks to see which future trials could be a good fit for you.
Brooklyn, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07181135Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Finerenone for kidney disease without certain blood pressure drugs
This trial tests if finerenone can protect kidneys in people with chronic kidney disease who are not taking common blood pressure medications called ACE inhibitors, ARBs, or renin inhibitors. It may help slow kidney damage.
BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT00001987Recruiting
Understanding genetics of insulin resistance and diabetes
This research study looks at the genes and immune system factors that cause severe insulin resistance—a condition where the body doesn't respond well to insulin. Researchers want to understand why some people develop this problem and study family members and healthy volunteers to learn more.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 6 months–120 years - NCT03867448Recruiting
Study of Hormone Conditions and How the Body Works
This study looks at people with known or suspected hormone (endocrine) conditions. It aims to improve understanding and clinical screening so doctors can better manage these conditions over time.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–90 - NCT06703151Recruiting
Farmers and fishermen with chronic conditions self-care study
This study looks at how well farmers and fishermen manage their own health conditions like high blood pressure, heart disease, high cholesterol, and type 2 diabetes. It aims to understand your awareness, treatment, and ability to practice self-care.
Mailiao, Yun Lin HsienAges 18–75 - NCT06161701Recruiting
Steroid-related diabetes in kidney disease patients
This trial looks at how steroids affect blood sugar in people with certain kidney diseases. If you are starting steroid treatment, this study may help understand and manage the risk of developing diabetes.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT07649317RecruitingPhase 1
Ketoconazole effects on cortisol rhythms in mild adrenal hormone changes
This study tests whether the drug ketoconazole can safely help regulate daily cortisol patterns in people with mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS), a condition where the adrenal glands make too much cortisol. It will compare how patients with MACS and healthy volunteers respond to the medication.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT07444723RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
New imaging to find parathyroid tumors before surgery
This study tests two advanced imaging techniques (PET/MR and PET/CT) to find overactive parathyroid glands or tumors that need surgery. Participants get a special scan before surgery to help surgeons locate the problem more accurately.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT07333313Recruiting
Study of oral medicine and probiotics for kidney disease in diabetes
This trial tests if an oral medication that absorbs toxins plus probiotics can reduce inflammation and slow kidney damage in people with diabetes-related kidney disease (DKD). It may help those with mild to severe kidney function loss.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for diabetic kidney disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 316 recruiting diabetic 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 diabetic 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 diabetic 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.
