SGLT2 inhibitor heart health study in dialysis patients
This study tests whether a medicine called an SGLT2 inhibitor (a type of diabetes drug also used for heart failure) affects the heart and blood vessels in people with kidney failure who are on dialysis. It will help doctors understand if this medicine is safe and helpful for dialysis patients.
Buenos Aires, Buenos AiresAges 18–70 - NCT07194395Recruiting
Monitoring AV access with a contactless device during dialysis
This study tests a device that uses light to check the health of your AV access (the blood vessel connection used for dialysis) without touching it. It may help doctors spot problems early.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT07123909Recruiting

Exercise during dialysis for heart health
This study compares two types of exercise (aerobic vs. resistance training) done during hemodialysis sessions, and looks at how they affect a blood test related to heart disease risk.
Cairo, Select StateAges 40–60 - NCT07022847Recruiting
Using a finger sensor to predict low blood pressure during dialysis
This trial tests if a non-invasive finger sensor (PVI) can predict when blood pressure drops during dialysis. If successful, it could help prevent dangerous low blood pressure episodes.
Wuhu, AnhuiAges 18–80 - NCT06997042Recruiting
Comparing Two Fistula Creation Techniques for Dialysis

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for hemodialysis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 140 recruiting hemodialysis 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 hemodialysis 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 hemodialysis 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.
