Recruiting studies
- NCT01515605Recruiting
Monitoring gene and molecular changes after kidney transplant
This study checks samples from people after a kidney transplant to better understand how treatment is working at a biological (molecular) level. It may help doctors improve follow-up care and therapy over time.
Odense, DKAges 18 years+ - NCT05597540RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter antibiotics for kidney transplant kidney infections
This study compares giving antibiotics for 7 days versus 14 days to treat acute kidney infections (pyelonephritis) in people with kidney transplants. It aims to see if the shorter course works just as well and is safer or easier to complete.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT06591702Recruiting
Testing a quality-of-life questionnaire for kidney disease
This study tests a questionnaire (BETY-BQ) to see how well it measures quality of life in people with kidney disease, on dialysis, or after a kidney transplant. It will help doctors better understand your symptoms and daily life.
Ankara, AltındağAges 18 years+ - NCT06341543Recruiting
CMV blood test to guide treatment after organ transplant
This study uses a blood test (QuantiFERON-CMV) to help decide whether people with a silent (no symptoms) CMV infection after a solid organ transplant need treatment. If you have a low-to-moderate level of CMV in your blood without fever or organ issues, this trial may help your doctor choose the safest approach.
Grenoble, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04494776Recruiting
Study of COVID-19 in kidney transplant patients
This study looks at what happens when people with kidney transplants get COVID-19. It may help improve how doctors monitor and manage COVID-19 in transplant recipients.
São Paulo, Aão PauloAges Any age - 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 - NCT07531966Recruiting
Blood Vessel Problems After Kidney Transplant Treatment
This study looks at treating narrowing or blockage of blood vessels in transplanted kidneys. If your transplanted kidney is showing signs of not working well and imaging shows a blocked vessel, this trial tests whether a procedure called angioplasty (opening the vessel with a tiny balloon) can help restore blood flow and improve kidney function.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT07412470RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing frexalimab vs tacrolimus for new kidney transplant patients
This trial compares a new drug called frexalimab to the standard drug tacrolimus in people who are getting their first kidney transplant. The goal is to see if frexalimab works better and has a safer side effect profile.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–70 - NCT06809075Recruiting
Stem cell therapy to help highly sensitized patients get a kidney transplant
This trial tests if a special stem cell treatment (using your own stem cells) can reset your immune system so you can accept a kidney from a deceased donor, even if you have very high antibody levels that make it hard to find a match. It's for people who have been waiting a long time and haven't had a transplant offer.
BarcelonaAges 18–65 - NCT07368153RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing EBV infection after kidney transplant
This trial tests if an experimental drug can prevent a common virus (EBV) from causing problems in people who receive a kidney from an EBV-positive donor but have never been exposed to EBV themselves. It aims to reduce the risk of transplant-related complications.
Bern, Canton of BernAges 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 - NCT07294547Recruiting
Comparing two antivirals for kidney transplant patients
This trial compares two antiviral drugs, valacyclovir and valganciclovir, to see if valacyclovir works as well as valganciclovir for preventing CMV and EBV infections after a kidney transplant.
TaipeiAges 3 years+ - NCT07290777RecruitingPhase 2
Study of Vel-101 to prevent kidney transplant rejection
This trial tests a new medicine called VEL-101, which is added to standard anti-rejection drugs, to see if it helps prevent the body from rejecting a new kidney. It is for adults receiving a kidney from a deceased or non-identical living donor.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07266467RecruitingPhase 4
Preventing CMV After First Kidney Transplant
This trial tests a new medicine, Leymovir, against a standard one, Valganciclovir, to prevent a common virus infection (CMV) after a first kidney transplant. It may help you avoid CMV-related illness.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18 years+ - NCT05365672RecruitingPhase 2
Donor immune cell therapy during live kidney transplant
This Phase 2 trial studies a treatment using immune cells made from your living donor, given around the time of kidney transplant. It aims to improve transplant safety and outcomes by adjusting the immune response to the new kidney.
BerlinAges 18–69 - NCT07053462RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene-edited kidney transplant to lower rejection risk
This trial tests a specially edited donor kidney designed to reduce the chance of rejection, especially for people with high sensitivity to donor kidneys. If it works, it could make more kidneys available for those who have a hard time finding a match.
Beijing, ChangpingAges 16–85 - NCT06140537RecruitingPhase 4
Dapagliflozin for kidney and heart health after transplant
This study tests whether a diabetes drug called dapagliflozin (Farxiga) can help protect your kidney function and heart health after a kidney transplant. It's for people who have had a transplant for at least a year and have diabetes or post-transplant diabetes.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–80 - NCT06829719Recruiting
Using TTV virus to manage immune drugs in kidney transplant
This trial uses a virus called TTV to see if it can help doctors safely adjust immunosuppression drugs in kidney transplant patients. It aims to find a way to lower the risk of rejection while reducing side effects.
Bordeaux (France)Ages 18 years+ - NCT06825117Enrolling by invitation
Probiotics after kidney transplant
This trial tests whether taking a probiotic supplement helps people recovering from a kidney transplant. If you are between 18 and 75 years old and had a smooth recovery in the first month after surgery, you may be able to join.
UdineAges 18–75 - NCT06538961Recruiting
Immune registry for BK virus in kidney transplant patients
This study is creating a registry to learn how the immune system responds to BK virus in people who have recently received a kidney transplant from a deceased donor. Researchers hope this information will help improve treatment for BK virus infections.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06474273RecruitingPhase 3
Treating acute rejection after a kidney or kidney-pancreas transplant
This study compares two ways of treating acute rejection (when the immune system attacks the new organ) in people who have had a kidney or combined kidney-pancreas transplant. It looks at whether adding a different approach helps protect the transplant long-term.
Lambton, New South WalesAges 2 years+ - NCT06407232RecruitingPhase 3
Letermovir for CMV after kidney or pancreas transplant
This trial tests whether a drug called letermovir can safely treat CMV infection in people who have had a kidney or pancreas transplant. It is for those who are at high risk for CMV and whose own immune system cannot fight the virus.
Madison, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT06206486Recruiting
Gut germs and pain after kidney transplant
This study looks at whether the germs in your gut (microbiome) and certain chemicals in your blood affect pain after a kidney transplant. By joining, you may help doctors better understand and manage pain for future kidney transplant patients.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06056102RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T cell therapy to help highly sensitized kidney transplant patients
This trial tests whether a special immune cell treatment (CAR-T cells) can lower the antibodies that make it very hard for you to receive a kidney transplant. If it works, you might become eligible for a transplant sooner.
