Recruiting studies
- NCT06989892Recruiting
Comparing two dialysis filters for sepsis patients
This trial tests whether a newer, higher-performing dialysis filter helps people with kidney failure and sepsis better than the standard filter. It focuses on patients with high levels of inflammation (measured by a marker called interleukin-6).
Dusit, BangkokAges 18 years+ - NCT07017270RecruitingPhase 4
GLP-1 drugs for people with diabetes on dialysis
This study tests if a type 2 diabetes medication called a GLP-1 receptor agonist (like Ozempic) is safe and effective for people on dialysis. It may help manage blood sugar and improve health outcomes for those with kidney failure.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07033117Recruiting
Improving kidney transplant access with RaDIANT
This trial tests if a special program helps dialysis centers refer more people to large transplant centers for a kidney transplant.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18–80 - NCT07059962Recruiting
Sensor-based congestion alert for peritoneal dialysis
This study tests a new sensor system that can predict fluid overload (congestion) in people on peritoneal dialysis. It may help you and your care team spot problems early so you can avoid hospital visits.
Victorville, CaliforniaAges 21 years+ - NCT07146854Recruiting
EndoForce Connector Study for Dialysis Graft Access
This study is testing a new connector system (EndoForce) used during dialysis graft placement in people with kidney failure. Researchers want to make sure it works safely and effectively in real-world use.
Orangeburg, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07153939Recruiting
Study of a new device to create dialysis access
This trial tests a new device called the Velocity pAVF System that creates a connection between a vein and artery in your arm for hemodialysis. If you need dialysis now or within the next 6 months, this could be a new option for you.
Dothan, AlabamaAges 18–80 - NCT07206524Recruiting
Testing magnesium in dialysis fluid for people in OMAGOD study
This trial is for people already enrolled in the OMAGOD pilot study. It tests whether changing the amount of magnesium in a special dialysis fluid can reduce unwanted blood clotting and inflammation during dialysis.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - 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+ - 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+ - 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 - 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+ - 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 - NCT02989298Recruiting
Peritoneal dialysis registry study
This study enrolls people who are already on peritoneal dialysis to track care and outcomes over time. It may help improve how peritoneal dialysis is delivered in the future.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07511283Recruiting
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+ - NCT07555717Recruiting
STARgraft Pilot: New Arm Access for Kidney Dialysis
This trial tests a new graft (artificial blood vessel) placed in your upper arm to help you receive kidney dialysis. The graft connects an artery to a vein, creating a reliable access point for dialysis needles.
AsunciónAges 18 years+ - NCT07559942Recruiting
Apiban to Help Dialysis Fistulas Mature Successfully
This trial tests whether a blood-thinner medication called apixaban (Apiban) helps arteriovenous fistulas—surgically created connections in the arm for dialysis—develop and work better. If it helps fistulas mature faster and more reliably, it could reduce complications and improve treatment for kidney failure patients.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 18 years+ - 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+ - 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+ - NCT06842927Enrolling by invitation
A tool to measure how well peritoneal dialysis works
This study is testing a new computer tool that helps doctors see how well peritoneal dialysis (a type of kidney treatment done at home) removes waste from your body. It may help make your dialysis more effective.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for esrd?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 43 recruiting 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 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 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.
