Recruiting studies
- NCT05855954Recruiting
Early kidney protection during heart surgery
This trial looks at whether a specific heart-surgery technique (called CLCVP) can help protect kidney function soon after surgery. It is mainly for adults with otherwise normal kidney tests before certain types of heart operations.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT05906758RecruitingPhase 3
Test ultra-low contrast heart imaging in kidney injury
This trial tests whether using a much smaller amount of contrast dye for an invasive heart scan is safer for people with acute kidney injury (AKI). It may help reduce further kidney stress while still allowing doctors to look at coronary (heart) arteries.
New Orleans, LouisianaAges 18–100 - NCT05988658Recruiting
Using scores and biomarkers to predict kidney injury in hospital patients
This study uses a risk score and blood tests to predict which hospitalized patients might develop acute kidney injury (sudden kidney damage). If you are at high risk, researchers will follow you closely to see if early detection can help prevent serious kidney problems.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06021288Recruiting
Standard vs. lower dose dialysis for kidney failure in intensive care
This trial compares the usual dose of continuous dialysis with a lower dose to see if a lower dose is just as safe and effective for critically ill patients with sudden kidney failure.
MünsterAges 18 years+ - NCT06027788Recruiting
Embolic protection during heart valve surgery
This trial tests a device that may help protect your brain from small particles during heart valve surgery. It is for people 60 and older having certain types of valve replacement or repair.
North Little Rock, ArkansasAges 60 years+ - NCT06038162Recruiting

This trial tests a new medicine called nafamostat to prevent blood clots during continuous dialysis (CRRT), for people who are at high risk of bleeding or can't take heparin.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT06167512Recruiting
Study on kidney cell changes after severe injury
This study looks at how kidney cells change their energy use after a severe injury. It may help doctors understand and treat kidney damage in trauma patients.
Le Kremlin-BicêtreAges 18 years+ - NCT06174610Recruiting
Kidney ultrasound for ICU patients on dialysis
This study looks at how kidney ultrasound can help monitor critically ill patients who need continuous dialysis for acute kidney injury. The results may help doctors better manage treatment.
Opole, Opole VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT06179771Recruiting
Filter during dialysis or ECMO for severe illness
This study tests a special filter (HA380 column) used during dialysis or ECMO to remove harmful substances from the blood. It is for critically ill patients with severe infection, injury, or breathing problems who also need kidney or lung support.
Leicester, LeicestershireAges 18–65 - NCT06180551Recruiting
Early kidney injury detection study in the ICU
This study tests a new way to diagnose acute kidney injury (sudden kidney damage) early in intensive care patients. It may help doctors catch kidney problems sooner and improve care.
Homburg, SaarlandAges 18 years+ - NCT06234592Recruiting
Blood pressure medicines and kidney health in septic shock
This trial tests whether different blood pressure medicines protect kidney function better in people with septic shock (a severe infection that causes low blood pressure). It compares norepinephrine (the standard treatment) with other options to see which is best for the kidneys.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT06259760Recruiting
Kidney risk after low-blood-pressure anesthesia for jaw surgery
This study looks at factors that may increase the risk of kidney injury during jaw surgery when a special low-blood-pressure anesthesia technique is used. It helps doctors understand who is more likely to have complications.
Kaohsiung City, Sanmin DistAges 18–65 - NCT06341933Recruiting
Kidney risk after lung cancer surgery (VATS)
This study looks at why some people develop kidney problems after lung cancer surgery using small incisions (VATS). By tracking your recovery, the doctors hope to find ways to protect your kidneys during and after surgery.
Ankara, KeçiörenAges 18–65 - NCT06369064Recruiting
Comparing dialysis methods for kidney injury in the ICU
This trial compares two types of dialysis (hemodialysis and hemodiafiltration) to see which is better at removing waste from the blood in ICU patients with sudden kidney failure. It may help doctors choose the best treatment for you.
NîmesAges 18 years+ - NCT06386796Recruiting
Using ultrasound to predict kidney trouble in high-risk patients
This study uses a simple ultrasound test (kidney artery scan) to see if it can predict kidney problems early in people who are very ill. It may help doctors protect your kidneys during your hospital stay.
Aswān, Aswan GovernorateAges 18–80 - NCT06431919Recruiting
Adding statin to carvedilol for cirrhosis with heart problems
This trial tests whether adding a statin (simvastatin) to the usual heart medication carvedilol helps people with both cirrhosis and a related heart problem live longer and avoid serious liver complications.
ChandigarhAges 18–65 - NCT06440759Recruiting
Filter Comparison for Septic Shock with Kidney Failure
This study compares two types of filters used during continuous kidney replacement therapy in patients with septic shock and severe acute kidney injury. The goal is to see which filter works better and is safer.
Kubang Kerian, KelantanAges 18 years+ - NCT06475261Recruiting
Measuring tissue oxygen during surgery for ovarian cancer
This study measures oxygen levels in tissues during surgery for ovarian cancer that includes heated chemotherapy inside the abdomen. The goal is to understand how oxygen changes during the procedure, which could help improve care.
RomeAges 18–75 - NCT06446739Recruiting
Low-dose vs standard-dose kidney therapy for ICU patients
This study compares two different doses of continuous kidney replacement therapy (CRRT, a type of dialysis) for patients in the intensive care unit with acute kidney injury. It aims to find out if a lower dose is as safe and effective as the standard dose.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06524622Recruiting
Ultrasound and pressure test for sepsis in the ICU
This study tests whether a special ultrasound exam (VExUS) combined with a standard pressure measurement (CVP) can better predict outcomes for people with sepsis in the ICU. The goal is to see if these tools help doctors make better treatment decisions.
Yibin, SichuanAges 18–100 - NCT06537453Recruiting
Virtual home hospital with remote monitoring for kidney injury recovery
This trial tests a virtual home hospital program that lets you go home early with remote monitoring, if you have a new kidney injury and meet other criteria. The goal is to reduce time in the hospital and help you recover safely at home.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT06543940Recruiting
Vancomycin in CRRT with oXiris filter study
This study looks at how the antibiotic vancomycin behaves in the blood of patients who are on a special type of kidney support (CRRT) using the oXiris filter. It aims to help doctors dose vancomycin more accurately for patients in the ICU.
Bangkok, PayathiAges 18 years+ - NCT06570187RecruitingPhase 4
Dexmedetomidine for kidney protection in sepsis
This trial tests if dexmedetomidine, a sedative, can help protect the kidneys of critically ill patients with sepsis who develop acute kidney injury (a sudden drop in kidney function). It is for adults in the ICU who need a breathing tube or mask within 48 hours of kidney injury.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for kidney injury?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 201 recruiting kidney injury 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 injury 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 injury 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.
