PortoAges 50 years+ - NCT06217302RecruitingPhase 3
Sotagliflozin for kidney protection in type 1 diabetes
This study tests whether sotagliflozin (a pill that helps control blood sugar and protects the kidneys) can slow down kidney function decline in people with type 1 diabetes and diabetic kidney disease. You may qualify if you have had type 1 diabetes for at least 8 years, have moderate kidney damage, and are on standard treatments.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT07673822Enrolling by invitation
Heart, kidney, and metabolic disease study in Korea
This study looks at how common heart, kidney, and metabolic problems are in Korea by using health insurance records. It will help doctors understand how often these conditions happen together.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06153147Recruiting
Kidney & blood pressure in childhood cancer survivors
This study looks at kidney health and blood pressure in childhood cancer survivors. If you finished high-risk cancer therapy about 3 years ago, researchers want to see how your kidneys and blood pressure are doing now.
Toronto, OntarioAges Up to 19 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 - NCT07086989Recruiting
Heart health study for kids with chronic conditions
This study looks at heart disease risk in children and young adults (ages 6-25) with long-term health conditions like certain heart, kidney, or diabetes disorders. The goal is to better understand and manage heart risks early.
BudapestAges 6–25 - NCT06595420Recruiting
Kidney health in people with cystic fibrosis on new treatments
This study looks at how the kidneys work in people with cystic fibrosis, especially those taking highly effective new treatments. It aims to understand kidney function in different groups, including those who are hospitalized frequently or rarely.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 7 years+ - NCT06234410Recruiting
Heart risk check before kidney transplant
This study uses a special heart CT scan (called coronary angiography) to check the heart health of people waiting for a kidney transplant. It aims to see if this scan can help doctors better assess and manage heart risks before surgery.
Edinburgh, LothianAges 16 years+ - NCT06728228Recruiting
Amnioinfusion for fetal kidney failure
This trial is testing whether adding fluid back into the womb (amnioinfusion) can help babies whose kidneys are not working and who have no amniotic fluid early in pregnancy. It may improve the baby's chances of survival and lung development.
Dallas, TexasAges Any age - NCT07492511Recruiting
Ultrasound patterns in kidney and liver after trauma
This trial uses special ultrasound (Doppler) to look at blood flow in the kidneys and liver after a serious injury. It aims to find patterns that could help doctors better understand and treat trauma patients.
BolognaAges 18–65 - 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 - NCT05065372RecruitingPhase 1
Metformin test with automated insulin in teens with type 1
This Phase 1 study tests how adding metformin affects blood flow in the kidneys, insulin sensitivity, and overall heart/metabolic health in young people with type 1 diabetes. It may help researchers understand whether this combo is safe and beneficial alongside automated or pump/shot insulin care.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 12–25 - NCT06331546Recruiting
Study of gut oxalate absorption in calcium oxalate kidney stone patients
This study looks at how your gut absorbs oxalate, a natural substance in many foods that can lead to kidney stones. By eating special diets and pausing certain supplements, researchers can measure your oxalate absorption. This may help find better ways to prevent kidney stones.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–80 - NCT05812755RecruitingPhase 4
Study drug effects on blood vessels and organs in heart surgery
This Phase 4 trial studies vericiguat-like stimulation (a type of medicine that affects blood-vessel signaling) around the time of planned open-heart surgery. It aims to see whether this can change blood-vessel “reactivity” and reduce injury to organs during and after surgery.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT02000895Recruiting
Studying birth factors in preterm and term mother-infant pairs
This study looks at how biological factors at birth differ between preterm and term babies, and how they relate to the mother and baby together. It may help doctors better understand early-life influences for newborn care.

- 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.
