Study of an experimental anemia drug for chronic kidney disease patients not on dialysis
This trial tests an oral medication (AND017) for anemia caused by chronic kidney disease. It aims to improve red blood cell levels without needing dialysis or current anemia treatments.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06916585RecruitingPhase 2
Testing AS1501 for acute-on-chronic liver failure
This trial tests a new drug called AS1501 for people with acute-on-chronic liver failure (a sudden worsening of chronic liver disease). It aims to see if the drug can help improve liver function and reduce the need for a liver transplant. You may be eligible if you are in the early or middle stage of this condition and have a specific blood marker (high TRAIL level).
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05325099RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Azacitidine to help prevent kidney injury after heart surgery
This early-phase study tests whether azacitidine (a medication that changes how cells read genes) can lower the risk of acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery, especially in people already at risk along the chronic kidney disease (CKD) pathway. It aims to protect kidney function during the vulnerable period after surgery.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT06925217Recruiting
Closed-loop insulin for type 2 diabetes and kidney disease
This study tests whether a special type of insulin delivery system (closed-loop) can help people with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease. You'll wear a continuous glucose monitor and insulin pump, and researchers will track how your kidneys respond over time.
Lausanne, Canton of VaudAges 18 years+ - NCT07181135Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Finerenone for kidney disease without certain blood pressure drugs
This trial tests if finerenone can protect kidneys in people with chronic kidney disease who are not taking common blood pressure medications called ACE inhibitors, ARBs, or renin inhibitors. It may help slow kidney damage.
BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07029503RecruitingPhase 2
Heart failure and kidney function study
This trial tests a new treatment for people with heart failure and severely reduced kidney function. It aims to see if the treatment can help protect both the heart and kidneys.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT04708587Recruiting
Choosing the right anti-platelet duration for advanced kidney disease
This study looks at the best length of anti-platelet medicine (which helps prevent stent clots) after a new type of heart stent. It specifically focuses on people with advanced chronic kidney disease, where bleeding and clot risks can be higher.
SeoulAges 19–84 - NCT07494409RecruitingPhase 3
A new oral medicine for anemia in dialysis patients
This trial tests a new oral medicine (AND017) for people on dialysis who have anemia (low red blood cells). It may help reduce the need for injections of standard anemia medicines.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT07682298Recruiting
