We’re tracking 14 recruiting kidney failure, chronic studies with a site in Texas — including Phase 1, Phase 2 and Phase 3 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT04128189RecruitingPhase 3
Shingrix vaccine for people waiting for a kidney transplant
This Phase 3 study tests whether the shingles vaccine Shingrix is safe and effective for adults with chronic kidney failure who are on the transplant waiting list. It aims to protect you from shingles while you may be dealing with transplant-related immune changes.
Houston, TexasAges 18–70 - 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.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 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.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT05285878Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Fingolimod to protect kidney function after kidney transplant
This trial tests whether fingolimod can reduce kidney scarring and preserve kidney function after a new kidney transplant. It focuses on people who are in the early period after transplant who may be at risk for scarring in the kidney.
Houston, TexasAges 18–65 - NCT04671771Recruiting
Testing a new graft for hemodialysis access in kidney failure
This study tests whether an “AV graft” implant works safely and well for people with end-stage kidney disease who need hemodialysis. It may help your dialysis access last and work better, compared with current expectations for AV grafts.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–90 - NCT06742723RecruitingPhase 3
Study of baxdrostat and dapagliflozin for kidney disease and high blood pressure
This trial tests if combining baxdrostat with dapagliflozin helps protect kidney function and reduce heart risks in people with chronic kidney disease and high blood pressure. It's for adults who are already taking standard blood pressure medications.
Arlington, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06307652RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new heart failure and kidney treatment combo
This study tests a new combination of two medicines (balcinrenone and dapagliflozin) for people with heart failure and reduced kidney function. The goal is to see if this combination helps improve heart and kidney health better than current treatments.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18–130 - NCT07024823RecruitingPhase 1
Safety study of AZD4248 in healthy people and those with kidney disease and diabetes
This trial tests an experimental drug called AZD4248 to see if it's safe for healthy people and for people with chronic kidney disease and type 2 diabetes. It also checks if a home device can accurately measure kidney function.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT06858319RecruitingPhase 3
Long-term study of zigakibart for IgA nephropathy
This study is for people with IgA nephropathy who completed a previous zigakibart study. It tests whether continuing treatment with zigakibart (given as a shot every two weeks) is safe and helpful over a longer period.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–100 - NCT05970341Recruiting
Healthy food program for kidney disease and better kidney health
This trial tests whether a structured “eat well” food program—focused on kidney-friendly nutrition—can help people with early to mid-stage chronic kidney disease. It may help by supporting healthier day-to-day eating over at least 6 months.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06001827Recruiting
Study of a wrap to help new dialysis access points heal
This trial tests a special wrap placed around a new arm access point for dialysis (called an AV fistula) to see if it helps the access stay healthy and work better. It is for people who need a new AV fistula for kidney dialysis.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07662135RecruitingPhase 3
A study of elecoglipron for type 2 diabetes with kidney problems
This trial tests a new medicine called elecoglipron to see if it helps control blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes who also have reduced kidney function. You would continue taking your current SGLT2i medication (like dapagliflozin).
San Antonio, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06907147Recruiting
Renal denervation for uncontrolled high blood pressure
This trial tests a procedure called renal denervation to lower blood pressure in people whose medication isn't enough. It uses a special catheter to calm nerves near the kidneys that may be overactive.
Tyler, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT06751602Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Belumosudil to prevent kidney scarring after transplant
This trial tests whether a drug called belumosudil can reduce scarring in the kidney after transplant. Scarring can lead to kidney damage over time, and this study aims to stop that from happening.

What taking part in a kidney failure, chronic study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
