CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT05817539Recruiting
Early circulation-focused care during kidney dialysis in ICU
This trial looks at whether starting dialysis-related care early, aimed at improving blood flow to tissues, can help people in the ICU who have sudden kidney failure. It may help reduce problems related to poor tissue circulation, but it is very specific about ICU illness and current treatments.
AjaccioAges 18 years+ - NCT07052539Recruiting
Kidney disease in heart failure with obesity
This study looks at how kidney disease relates to a type of heart failure (called HFpEF) that often happens in people with obesity. It will help doctors understand this connection better.
Jackson, MississippiAges 18–75 - NCT07047547Recruiting
Vericiguat study for kidney disease and heart failure patients
This trial tests how a medication called vericiguat works in people with both chronic kidney disease and heart failure. It aims to see if the drug helps manage these conditions together.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT07403669Recruiting
Heart, kidney, and metabolic health assessment study
This trial offers a health assessment and empowerment program for adults who have heart, kidney, or metabolic conditions like diabetes or heart disease. It aims to help you better manage your health.
Chandler, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT07237451Recruiting
Heart and kidney study of SGLT2 inhibitors
This study looks at whether a type of diabetes medicine called SGLT2 inhibitors (also known as flozins) can help protect the heart and kidneys in people with both heart failure with preserved pumping function and moderate chronic kidney disease, with or without diabetes.
IașiAges 18 years+ - NCT07025629RecruitingPhase 3
Dapagliflozin after ICU discharge for heart and kidney health
This study tests if the drug dapagliflozin (a medicine that helps protect the heart and kidneys) can improve recovery in patients who needed a breathing machine or blood pressure support in the ICU. If you qualify, you would take the drug after leaving the ICU to see if it lowers the risk of heart or kidney problems.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT03549754Recruiting
iCaReMe registry for adults with diabetes, blood pressure, or heart/kidney disease
This is a health “registry,” meaning it collects information about people living with common chronic conditions. It may help researchers better understand real-world health needs and outcomes for people with type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, heart failure, and/or chronic kidney disease.
Fortaleza, CearáAges 18 years+ - NCT06051058Recruiting
App for managing health after hospital discharge
This study tests a smartphone app designed to help people with multiple health conditions manage their care after leaving the hospital. It may help you feel more supported and avoid confusion during the transition from hospital to home.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 55 years+ - NCT07508787RecruitingPhase 2
Study comparing siplizumab to another drug for kidney transplant acceptance
This trial tests a new drug, siplizumab, to see if it helps the body accept a donated kidney better than a standard treatment. It is for people receiving a kidney transplant from a living or deceased donor.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–70 - NCT04033224Recruiting
Blood-filter treatments for ICU patients with kidney and organ failure
This trial tests a specific type of blood-filter treatment in critically ill ICU patients who have acute kidney injury and/or failure of other organs. It aims to see whether these filters can improve care by supporting kidney function and/or calming harmful inflammation.
Empoli, FirenzeAges Any age - NCT07180368Recruiting
Managing multiple medications in older adults
This study looks at how to better manage multiple medications in older adults with long-term health conditions. It aims to improve safety and reduce drug-related problems.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 65 years+ - NCT07550790Recruiting
Preventing kidney injury during heart failure imaging scans
This study tests whether a specific water-based medication can prevent kidney damage when patients with acute heart failure need a CT scan with contrast dye. The trial focuses on people with mild-to-moderate kidney problems who are hospitalized for fluid buildup in the heart.
Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 20 years+ - NCT06921603Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided diuretics for heart failure
This trial tests whether using a bedside ultrasound to guide diuretic treatment improves outcomes in people hospitalized for worsening heart failure. It may help find the right dose of IV diuretics faster.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06374277Recruiting
Pharmacy Coaching to Help After Hospital Stay

Guided fluid management in severe kidney failure using ultrasound
This study tests a new way to manage fluids in patients with acute kidney injury who are receiving a type of dialysis called continuous renal replacement therapy. The method uses ultrasound to check blood flow in the veins and kidneys to guide fluid decisions, which may help recovery.
BangkokAges 18 years+ - NCT02378805Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for kidney failure?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 115 recruiting kidney failure 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 failure 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 failure 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.
