Rheopheresis to treat painful skin damage in calciphylaxis
This trial studies whether a treatment called rheopheresis, added to standard care, can help people with calciphylaxis whose skin wounds are getting worse. It may be considered when ulcers or dead (necrotic) skin appear despite conventional treatment.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT04671771Recruiting
Testing a new graft for hemodialysis access in kidney failure
This study tests whether an “AV graft” implant works safely and well for people with end-stage kidney disease who need hemodialysis. It may help your dialysis access last and work better, compared with current expectations for AV grafts.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18–90 - NCT06712654RecruitingPhase 2
Testing AP306 for high phosphate in dialysis patients
This trial tests a new medication called AP306 for people on hemodialysis who have high blood phosphate. It aims to see if the drug is safe, tolerable, and helps lower phosphate levels.
Huntsville, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05092373RecruitingPhase 1
Tumor treating device plus targeted or immune drugs for advanced cancers
This Phase 1 study tests whether a tumor treating fields device works better when added to standard cancer drugs. It may help people with advanced solid tumors in the chest or belly, especially when standard treatment didn’t work or can’t be tolerated.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05159466Recruiting
Transplant from HIV-positive donors to HIV-positive recipients
This trial studies whether it’s safe and effective for HIV-positive people to receive organ transplants from HIV-positive donors. It focuses on matching HIV treatment before and after transplant and checking for major complications.
Metairie, LouisianaAges 18 years+ - NCT05282732Recruiting
Review of dialysis machine filter performance in 2019 patients
This study does a “chart review” of existing dialysis treatment records from 2019. It checks how specific dialysis filters and concentrate products performed and how treatment measurements changed over time.
HanoverAges 18 years+ - NCT05382663Recruiting
SmartPatch study for adults on dialysis with an arm access
This study looks at how well a wearable patch (“SmartPatch”) can be used safely and correctly in adults who are receiving long-term dialysis through an arm fistula or graft. It may help researchers improve how medical devices are used in people with end-stage kidney disease.
AmmanAges 18 years+ - NCT05410275RecruitingPhase 3
Low-dose rivaroxaban for dialysis patients without blood thinners
This study tests whether a lower dose of the blood thinner rivaroxaban is safe for people with kidney failure on dialysis who do not already need blood thinners. The goal is to find a way to prevent blood clots and strokes with less risk of bleeding.
