Recruiting studies
- NCT07764991RecruitingPhase 2
Lactoferrin supplement for diabetic kidney disease
This study tests whether taking a lactoferrin supplement can help people with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease (stage 3 or 4) by reducing protein in their urine, which is a sign of kidney damage. It may offer a new way to slow the progression of kidney disease.
CairoAges 18–75 - NCT02986984Recruiting
Kidney biopsy study for people with diabetic kidney disease
This study aims to learn more about diabetic nephropathy (kidney problems caused by diabetes) using planned kidney tissue samples. You may benefit by helping researchers understand the disease better, and you may be eligible if you already have a medically needed kidney biopsy scheduled.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 18–100 - NCT04916132Recruiting
Diabetic kidney damage study using urine tests and biopsy
This study looks at how common diabetic kidney damage is in people with type 2 diabetes, and which factors can predict it. If you qualify, you may be asked to have a kidney biopsy to understand what’s happening inside your kidneys.
Skejby, AarhusAges 18–120 - NCT05888909Recruiting
Tests better diagnosis and treatment planning for kidney disease in type 2 diabetes
This trial focuses on improving how kidney damage is diagnosed and how treatment is planned for people with type 2 diabetes and kidney disease. It may help by using detailed medical history and (if done) kidney biopsy results to guide care more accurately.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06441591RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of vinpocetine for diabetic kidney disease
This trial tests whether vinpocetine, a medicine that helps blood flow, can improve kidney function in people with type 2 diabetes and moderate to advanced kidney disease (stages 3 and 4). It may offer a new way to protect your kidneys.
Cairo, AbbasseiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06843304Recruiting

Study of kidney tissue in diabetes-related kidney disease
This study collects and studies kidney tissue (from a biopsy or surgery) from people with diabetes-related kidney disease to learn more about the condition. You may be able to help if you've already had a kidney biopsy or certain kidney surgeries.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06661174Recruiting
Weight loss surgery study for diabetes with kidney problems
This study tests if bariatric surgery can help people whose diabetes is quickly damaging their kidneys. It may slow down kidney disease and improve health.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT07038213Enrolling by invitation
Study of kidney protection in type 2 diabetes
This study looks at how genes may affect kidney disease in people with type 2 diabetes. It tests treatments to protect the kidneys. If you are of Kazakh ethnicity and have type 2 diabetes, you may be able to join.
AstanaAges 18–65 - NCT07022418RecruitingPhase 2
Formoterol for diabetic kidney disease
This trial tests if a drug called formoterol (usually used for asthma) can help protect the kidneys in people with type 2 diabetes and early-to-moderate kidney disease. It may offer a new way to slow kidney damage.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18–75 - NCT04931537Recruiting
Testing early kidney marker tests for people with diabetes
This study looks for early warning signs in blood or other samples (using a special lab approach) to detect kidney problems sooner in people with diabetes. It may help patients and clinicians identify kidney risk earlier and follow changes over many years.
HangzhouAges 18–80 - NCT07396155RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cell therapy for diabetic kidney disease
This trial tests whether stem cells from donated umbilical cords can safely help people with type 2 diabetes who also have kidney damage. It aims to see if this therapy can improve kidney function.
YogyakartaAges 30–65 - NCT06217302RecruitingPhase 3
Sotagliflozin for kidney protection in type 1 diabetes
This study tests whether sotagliflozin (a pill that helps control blood sugar and protects the kidneys) can slow down kidney function decline in people with type 1 diabetes and diabetic kidney disease. You may qualify if you have had type 1 diabetes for at least 8 years, have moderate kidney damage, and are on standard treatments.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT06760845Recruiting
Using light to diagnose kidney disease
This trial uses a special light technique (Raman spectroscopy) to help diagnose different types of kidney disease. It may provide a faster, less invasive way to understand your condition.
Jinan, ShandongAges Any age - NCT05692388Recruiting
Study social needs support for Black adults with kidney and diabetes
This study looks at health-related social needs—like barriers to food, housing, or care—in African American adults living with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease. It uses a mixed-methods approach to understand needs better and what support may help.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT01802034Recruiting
Study kidney samples to understand autoimmune, inflammatory, and diabetic disease
This trial collects and studies kidney tissue samples to better understand what drives kidney problems linked to autoimmune, inflammation, and diabetes. Your participation may help researchers develop better ways to diagnose and treat these conditions.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT03865914Recruiting
Study linking diabetes kidney findings to biopsy results
This study looks at people with type 2 diabetes who have kidney problems and relates their symptoms and lab findings to what is seen on kidney biopsy. It may help doctors better understand what is driving kidney damage in diabetes.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07010250Recruiting
Kidney Energy Use and Scarring in ANCA Vasculitis
This study looks at how kidney cells use energy and how that leads to scarring in people with ANCA vasculitis. It compares findings with people who have other kidney diseases to better understand and possibly treat kidney damage.
ParisAges 18–90 - NCT06846034Recruiting
How low oxygen affects kidney blood flow
This study tests how low oxygen levels affect blood flow in the kidneys. It includes healthy people, people with type 2 diabetes, and those with diabetes plus kidney disease to see if their kidneys respond differently.
PoitiersAges 18–75 - NCT03512132Recruiting
Test HDL function in type 1 diabetes with kidney changes
This study looks at how well “good cholesterol” (HDL) works in people with type 1 diabetes, especially when kidney tests show early or more advanced damage. Researchers will compare different groups (normal, micro-, and macro-albumin in urine) to better understand HDL’s role and how it may relate to kidney health.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT06586203Recruiting
Genomic test to guide diabetes heart and kidney care
This study is testing whether a special blood test (genomic predictor) can help doctors better manage heart and kidney risks in people with type 2 diabetes. You may benefit from learning your personal risk score and getting more tailored care.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for diabetic nephropathies?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 29 recruiting diabetic nephropathies 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 nephropathies 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 nephropathies 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.
