Recruiting studies
- NCT07835828Recruiting
Optimised heart and kidney protection for chronic kidney disease and heart disease

Teriparatide for low bone turnover in advanced kidney disease
This trial tests teriparatide (a hormone-like bone medicine) to improve bone health in people with advanced chronic kidney disease who are at risk for weak, low-turnover bone. It may help by changing how quickly your bones break down and rebuild.
AalborgAges 18–120 - NCT06383208Recruiting
Heart and kidney risk study for people with both diseases

Heart disease in chronic kidney disease study
This study is looking at the link between kidney disease and heart disease. It aims to understand how heart problems affect people with chronic kidney disease. The trial does not test a new drug, but rather follows patients to learn more about their health.
OlsztynAges 18 years+ - NCT06567938Recruiting
Heart artery procedure study for people with kidney disease
This trial uses a special ultrasound camera inside the heart's arteries to guide stent placement for people with chronic kidney disease. The goal is to see if this approach improves outcomes compared to standard methods.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18 years+ - NCT07754097Recruiting
Tracking your health at home for chronic kidney disease
This study tests if regularly tracking your blood pressure, diet, and medications through a mobile app can help monitor kidney disease progression. It aims to see if this self-management approach helps you stay healthier.
Daejeon, DJAges 19–84 - NCT06591702Recruiting
Testing a quality-of-life questionnaire for kidney disease
This study tests a questionnaire (BETY-BQ) to see how well it measures quality of life in people with kidney disease, on dialysis, or after a kidney transplant. It will help doctors better understand your symptoms and daily life.
Ankara, AltındağAges 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 - NCT07597005Recruiting
Red Propolis Supplement for Kidney Disease Management
This study tests whether red propolis, a natural bee product, might help slow kidney disease progression in people with moderate to advanced chronic kidney disease who aren't yet on dialysis. Researchers believe its anti-inflammatory properties could support kidney health.
Rio de Janeiro, Rio de JaneiroAges 18–65 - NCT07572890RecruitingPhase 1
Experimental treatment study for chronic kidney disease
This research study tests an experimental treatment for people with chronic kidney disease who are not yet on dialysis. The goal is to see if the treatment is safe and how it affects kidney function.
Winter Park, FloridaAges 18–80 - NCT07561957Recruiting
Smartphone app to help manage chronic kidney disease
This study tests a smartphone app designed to help people with chronic kidney disease (CKD)—a condition where the kidneys don't filter blood as well as they should—follow the latest medical guidelines. The app aims to make it easier for younger adults to stay on top of their kidney health and treatment.
DublinAges 16–30 - NCT07547098Recruiting
Heart, Kidney, and Metabolism Health Long-Term Study
This research study tracks patients with heart disease, kidney disease, or metabolic conditions (like diabetes) over time to understand how these conditions connect and affect long-term health. By collecting medical records and health information, researchers aim to predict outcomes and improve care.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–80 - NCT07544524Recruiting
Plant-Based Diet for Kidney Disease in Asian Adults
This study tests whether eating mostly plants (with some animal products) can safely help people with moderate kidney disease. Researchers will compare this diet to a standard kidney-friendly diet and see how it affects kidney function and overall health.
SingaporeAges 21–79 - NCT07541495Enrolling by invitation
Mindfulness Training for Adults With Chronic Kidney Disease
This study tests whether a mindfulness program (guided meditation and breathing exercises delivered on a smartphone) can help people manage chronic kidney disease and improve their quality of life. You'll use a study-provided app to practice mindfulness several times a week for 8 weeks.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18–80 - NCT05515367RecruitingPhase 4
Real-world safety study of desidustat for kidney anemia
This study tracks the real-world safety of desidustat in adults with anemia caused by chronic kidney disease (CKD). It’s meant to see whether the medicine is safe when used in everyday care, not just in tightly controlled settings.
Sheikhpura, BiharAges 18–85 - NCT06794593RecruitingPhase 2
Camostat for kidney protection in chronic kidney disease

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for kidney diseases?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 665 recruiting kidney diseases 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 kidney diseases 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 kidney diseases 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.
