Recruiting studies
- NCT04334707Recruiting
Study kidney damage in people with long-term diabetes
This study is looking at different kidney health patterns in people with diabetes, especially diabetic kidney disease and people who have not developed kidney damage despite long-term diabetes. It may help researchers understand why kidney problems happen—and what protective factors might prevent them.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07385651Recruiting
Cool storage for donated kidneys
This trial compares storing donated kidneys at 10 degrees Celsius (a cooler temperature) instead of the usual ice storage. It tests if this might help the kidney stay healthier before transplant.

Egg White Pudding for Low Protein in Kidney Dialysis
This trial tests whether eating a special high-protein egg white pudding every day for 12 weeks can help people on dialysis with low protein levels. It's for adults with chronic kidney disease who are on center-based hemodialysis and have a low blood protein level called albumin.
Winnipeg, ManitobaAges 18 years+ - NCT07358195RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Combined stem cell and kidney transplant from a relative
This trial tests a combined transplant of blood-forming stem cells and a kidney from the same family member. It aims to help people with both advanced kidney failure and a blood cancer by potentially reducing the need for lifelong anti-rejection medicines.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–70 - NCT07309367Recruiting
Web-based advance care planning for dialysis patients
This trial tests a web-based program called 'My Voice' that helps people on dialysis plan ahead for their future care. It's for patients in Singapore who have advanced kidney failure and certain health challenges, and it also involves a family caregiver.
SingaporeAges 21 years+ - NCT07259512RecruitingPhase 4
Ramipril once or twice a day for kidney and heart health
This trial tests whether taking ramipril once or twice daily better protects kidney function in people with both chronic kidney disease (stages 3-5, not on dialysis) and heart failure with low pumping strength. It aims to find the best dosing schedule to help both organs.
Kartasura, Central JavaAges 18 years+ - NCT07446296Recruiting
Kidney transplant exercise program for older adults
This trial tests whether a special exercise program can help people on the kidney transplant waiting list get stronger and improve their health. You would use an app to follow exercise routines at home and check in with the research team.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 60 years+ - NCT06438445Recruiting
Royal Jelly Supplement for Kidney Disease on Dialysis
This study tests whether a daily supplement called royal jelly can help people with chronic kidney disease who are on dialysis. Researchers will check if it improves health markers.
Rio de Janeiro, Rio de JaneiroAges 18–70 - NCT06981585Recruiting
Physical effects in children with chronic kidney failure
This study looks at physical changes in children with chronic kidney failure compared to healthy children. If you join, you will have some physical measurements taken to help doctors understand how kidney disease affects the body.
IzmirAges 8–18 - NCT06910475Enrolling by invitation
Exercise and biomarker study to reduce toxins in kidney disease
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program can help reduce toxins in the blood for people with chronic kidney disease and metabolic syndrome. Researchers will also look at blood markers to understand how exercise affects the body.
Taguatinga, Federal DistrictAges 18 years+ - NCT06897605RecruitingPhase 2
Dapagliflozin for anemia in kidney disease
This trial tests whether a medication called dapagliflozin can help improve anemia in people with chronic kidney disease. If you have moderate to severe kidney disease and low red blood cell counts despite taking standard anemia treatment, this study may explore a new option.
Al MansurahAges 18 years+ - NCT06877169Recruiting
Staged heart and kidney transplant study
This study compares two ways of doing a combined heart and kidney transplant. It looks at doing the surgeries in separate stages instead of all at once, to see if that is safer or works better.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06794593RecruitingPhase 2
Camostat for kidney protection in chronic kidney disease
This study tests if a drug called camostat can help protect the kidneys in people with chronic kidney disease. It also includes a group of healthy volunteers for comparison.
OdenseAges 18 years+ - NCT06752577Recruiting
Stem cell treatment for chronic kidney disease safety study
This study tests whether a single infusion of stem cells from bone marrow is safe for people with chronic kidney disease (CKD). It aims to see if this treatment can help slow kidney function loss.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06750575Recruiting
Study of furosemide on toxin removal in chronic kidney disease
This study tests whether the water pill furosemide can help remove certain toxins from the blood in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD stages 3-5) who are starting this medicine as part of their regular care.
Utrecht, UtrechtAges 18 years+ - NCT07607197RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Immune Reset to Help Highly Sensitized Kidney Transplant Patients
This study tests whether a special immune-resetting treatment can help patients who have developed too many antibodies against donor kidneys get access to a compatible kidney transplant. The treatment uses chemotherapy and stem cell transplantation to 'reset' your immune system so it stops rejecting potential donor kidneys.
Barcelona, CataloniaAges 18–60 - NCT07626710Recruiting
How Heart Valve Replacement Affects Kidney Function
This study looks at whether a minimally invasive heart valve procedure (TAVI) affects how well your kidneys work. Researchers will track your kidney function before and after the procedure using blood tests to understand any changes.
Roma, RMAges 18 years+ - NCT06677437Recruiting
Preparing blood vessels for kidney transplant
This trial tests a procedure to fix blocked or damaged blood vessels in the pelvis so you can get a kidney transplant. It might help if your blood vessels are the only reason you can't have a transplant yet.
BronAges 18–85 - NCT06676696RecruitingPhase 4
Stopping immunosuppression after failed kidney transplant
This study compares what happens when patients with a failed kidney transplant (still in the body) stop their immunosuppressant medicines at 6 months versus continuing them. The goal is to safely prevent your immune system from becoming too sensitive, which can make finding a new donor kidney harder.
BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06660277Recruiting
Dialysis with expanded solute removal study
This trial tests a special dialysis filter (Elisio HX) that removes more waste products from the blood. It aims to see if this approach improves health outcomes for people on regular in-center hemodialysis.
London, OntarioAges 45 years+ - NCT06374277Recruiting
Pharmacy Coaching to Help After Hospital Stay
This study tests a program where a pharmacist helps you manage your medications after you leave the hospital. It is for people with long-term health conditions who want to stay on track with their medicines.
Knoxville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06314503Recruiting

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 - NCT06051058Recruiting
