This study tests whether using a device that monitors blood volume during dialysis can help manage fluid overload and reduce hospital readmissions for patients with kidney failure.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05917795Recruiting
Endoscopic stomach reduction for weight loss before kidney transplant
This trial tests an endoscopic procedure that helps reduce stomach size to support weight loss in people with severe kidney disease who may need a kidney transplant. It may help some patients meet transplant-center weight requirements and potentially improve readiness for transplant care.

Testing a step-up hemodialysis schedule for new dialysis patients
This trial studies whether starting hemodialysis in a gradual “step-up” way is safe and works well for adults who are newly starting maintenance dialysis for advanced kidney failure. If you qualify, you may be assigned to a specific dialysis start plan and be closely monitored.
BariAges 18 years+ - NCT07793929RecruitingPhase 1
Kidney function and study drug levels
This study checks how different levels of kidney function affect the levels of a new investigational drug called Ribupatide in the blood. It helps doctors understand how the drug works in people with various kidney conditions.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18–85 - NCT07792317Recruiting
Cold storage treatment for donated kidneys before transplant
This study tests a special cold storage solution and machine to keep donated kidneys healthy before they are transplanted. It may help the kidneys work better after surgery.
RotterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT07781124Recruiting
Remote monitoring for kidney dialysis patients
This study compares the effectiveness and resource use of remote patient monitoring across different dialysis methods for people with end-stage renal disease. It aims to see if remote monitoring can improve care and outcomes.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–79 - NCT07763418RecruitingPhase 1
Kidney function study of golcadomide
This study tests how a new drug, golcadomide, works in people with severe kidney problems compared to those with normal kidneys. It helps see if the drug needs different dosing for patients with kidney issues.
Chandler, ArizonaAges 18–84 - NCT07753876Enrolling by invitation
Cuffless blood pressure monitoring during dialysis
This study tests a wearable device that measures blood pressure without a cuff while you are on dialysis. It may give a more comfortable way to track your blood pressure during treatment.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT07720401Recruiting
Exercise during dialysis for posture problems
This study tests if doing gentle exercise during dialysis can help improve posture problems like a rounded upper back or forward head tilt. It is a small, early-stage study to see if the exercises are safe and might help.
IsfahanAges 18–80 - NCT07710183Recruiting
Pumpkin seed oil for hemodialysis patients
This study tests if pumpkin seed oil, a natural supplement, can improve health in people on long-term dialysis. It may help with inflammation and nutrition without using prescription drugs.
Baghdad, KarkhAges 18 years+ - NCT05878171Recruiting
Choices about life-saving treatment for kidney failure patients
This trial looks at what patients with kidney failure prefer for life-sustaining treatments (like whether they would want certain life-prolonging care). Your answers may help improve how future care plans are discussed and tailored to patients’ wishes.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT06224140Recruiting
Dialysis without heparin: a safety study
This study tests whether dialysis can be done safely without using heparin (a blood thinner) in people with end-stage kidney disease. If successful, it could reduce the need for blood-thinning medications and their associated risks.
Marseille, Bouches du RhôneAges 18 years+ - NCT07678073Recruiting
Comparing Anesthesia Types for Kidney Transplants
This study compares two types of anesthesia (general gas anesthesia vs. a spinal-plus-epidural method) during living-donor kidney transplants to see how they affect certain body signals related to cell health and aging. If you are having a kidney transplant from a living donor and are in good overall health, this trial could help doctors learn which anesthesia may be better for you.
Gaziantep, State/ProvinceAges 18–70 - NCT07656168Recruiting
Testing a new blood filter to improve quality of life in kidney failure
This trial tests whether adding a special filter called pHA130 to your regular dialysis treatments can better remove certain waste products from your blood and improve your quality of life. It's for people who have been on dialysis for at least 3 months and meet a few health requirements.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07653711Recruiting
Coated aldehyde oxystarch for reducing toxins in kidney failure
This trial tests a new oral medication, coated aldehyde oxystarch, for people on dialysis. It aims to lower certain waste products in the blood that are hard to remove with standard dialysis, which may help reduce long-term complications.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06696274Recruiting
Kinesiophobia, pain, balance, and quality of life in dialysis patients
This study looks at how fear of movement, pain, balance, and mental health affect the quality of life in people who are on hemodialysis. The goal is to understand these factors better so that care can be improved.

Lung Blood Flow Changes After Vein Graft Repair
This study measures how blood flow and oxygen distribution in your lungs change after a procedure to unclog a dialysis access graft. Researchers use painless electrode patches on your chest to track these changes and better understand how the procedure affects your breathing.
WuhuAges 18 years+ - NCT05612022Recruiting
Sound recording during hemodialysis fistula decisions
This study records and analyzes sounds from people getting hemodialysis through an access in the arm (an AV fistula or graft). It aims to see whether sound patterns can help assess or guide the best vascular access approach for dialysis.
Bergamo, BGAges 18–90 - NCT07591714Enrolling by invitation

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for end stage renal disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 145 recruiting end stage 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 end stage 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 end stage 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.
