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+ - NCT06836206RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gum arabic and kidney function in dialysis patients
This trial tests if taking gum arabic, a natural fiber, can help preserve the remaining kidney function in adults on dialysis. If you produce at least 200 ml of urine a day, this study might help you learn about a possible way to protect your kidneys.
Abu DhabiAges 18 years+ - NCT07370441Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Amino acid dialysis fluid for better nutrition
This trial tests a special dialysis fluid with amino acids (building blocks of protein) to see if it helps improve nutrition in people on peritoneal dialysis who have low protein levels. If you qualify, it may help boost your nutrition.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07361146Recruiting
Physical therapy during or before dialysis: a comparison
This study compares doing physical therapy during your dialysis session versus right before it. It looks at which timing might work better for people on hemodialysis.
HawalliAges 21–65 - NCT07339202Recruiting
Timing of dialysis before surgery for kidney failure
This study looks at the best timing for dialysis before planned surgery in people with kidney failure. It aims to find out if changing when you have dialysis can improve recovery and reduce complications.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07291154Recruiting
Using an app to improve dialysis quality
This trial tests if a smartphone app (via WeChat) can help people on dialysis better manage their treatment and improve quality of care. It's for adults who have been on regular dialysis for at least 3 months.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07271420RecruitingPhase 4
Blood pressure drug study for dialysis patients
This trial tests whether a common blood pressure medication (thiazide diuretics) helps control high blood pressure in people on peritoneal dialysis. The goal is to see if it can lower blood pressure and improve health.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT07224763RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Pig kidney transplant trial for kidney failure patients
This trial tests a genetically modified pig kidney (Thymokidney) for people with end-stage kidney disease who are on dialysis. It aims to see if this new type of transplant is safe and effective for those who cannot get a human kidney.
New York, New YorkAges 40–70 - NCT07211035Recruiting
Study of a device to help create a working dialysis access
This study tests a device that widens your vein before creating the connection used for dialysis. The goal is to help the access mature faster and work better for your treatments.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07201467RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
KN060 for dialysis patients with kidney failure
This study tests an experimental drug called KN060, given to people with end-stage kidney disease on dialysis, to see if it is safe and helps with blood clotting. It may be an option if you are on stable dialysis and not at high risk for bleeding.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07157397Recruiting
Plant-based diet for nutrition on dialysis
This study tests if eating more plant-based foods can improve nutrition in people on peritoneal dialysis who are underweight or malnourished. Participants will follow a special diet plan and have regular health check-ups for 6 months.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 37 recruiting end stage kidney disease (esrd) 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 end stage kidney disease (esrd) 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 end stage kidney disease (esrd) 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.
