Recruiting studies
- NCT07275632RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2

Edegem, AntwerpAges 18 years+ - NCT04526431Recruiting
Tacrolimus dose study in early kidney transplant patients
This study looks at how tacrolimus (a rejection-preventing medicine) should be dosed in the first days to years after a kidney transplant. It may help personalize dosing by comparing different patient groups, including using genetic testing.
Grenoble, Auvergne-Rhône-AlpesAges 18 years+ - NCT05508009RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Kidney transplant with donor-matched stem cell treatment
This early-phase trial tests a stem cell transplant from a donor who is an extremely close match, given to people who are about to receive a kidney transplant from the same donor. The goal is to improve how well the new kidney works by resetting the immune system to better accept the transplant.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 1–30 - NCT05385432RecruitingPhase 3
Kidney transplant induction therapy for sensitized patients
This trial tests a specific “induction” treatment to help people who have stronger immune reactions from past sensitizing events during a kidney transplant. It may help improve how well the transplant works and how safely the immune system is managed.
ToursAges 18–79 - NCT01644903Recruiting
Checking biomarkers after a liver transplant
This study follows people who are getting a liver transplant (including repeat transplants) to monitor changes in their body using test results. It may help doctors understand how patients are doing after transplant and improve care over time.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06752577Recruiting
Stem cell treatment for chronic kidney disease safety study
This study tests whether a single infusion of stem cells from bone marrow is safe for people with chronic kidney disease (CKD). It aims to see if this treatment can help slow kidney function loss.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06400771RecruitingPhase 1
Safety of DNP007 in Healthy Volunteers
This study tests the safety of a new drug called DNP007 in healthy volunteers. It is a Phase 1 trial, meaning it's one of the first steps in humans to see if the drug is safe and how the body handles it.
SeoulAges 19–55 - NCT07141043Recruiting
Bone health study after kidney transplant
This study looks at bone and mineral disorders in people on dialysis, after a kidney transplant, or with bone thinning. It aims to understand how these conditions affect bone health.
IașiAges 20–70 - NCT07053488RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene-edited liver transplant to lower rejection risk
This trial tests a liver transplant using a donor organ that has been gene-edited to reduce the risk of rejection. It may help people who need a liver transplant and are not a perfect tissue match with their donor.
Beijing, ChangpingAges 16–85 - NCT07532382Recruiting
Personalized Stories to Help Young Kidney Transplant Recipients
This study uses personalized storytelling to help children aged 5–12 who have received a kidney transplant. Researchers believe that hearing stories from other transplant recipients might help children understand their condition better and cope with their new life after transplant.
Paris, Île-de-France RegionAges 5–12 - NCT06263426Recruiting
Kidney transplant from donors with HIV: impact on rejection and long-term results
This study tests whether kidney transplants from donors with HIV are safe and effective for people with HIV who need a new kidney. It looks at long-term outcomes like rejection and survival.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07444489Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Long-term safety of felzartamab for kidney transplant rejection
This study checks the long-term safety of felzartamab for people who have had a kidney transplant and are dealing with antibody-mediated rejection or signs of inflammation in the kidney. It's for those who were already in a previous study and took at least one dose of felzartamab.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT03591302RecruitingPhase 1
Stem cell transplant to stop anti-rejection drugs after kidney transplant
This study tries to use a stem cell transplant from your original kidney donor to help your body accept the kidney without needing lifelong anti-rejection drugs. You must have a perfectly matched sibling donor who is still available.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06406179Recruiting
Blood test for donor DNA in kidney transplant care
This trial is testing whether a simple blood test that looks for donor DNA can help doctors take better care of kidney transplant patients. It may help detect early signs of rejection and guide treatment decisions.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT07090512Recruiting
Ultrasound to predict kidney risk after transplant
This study uses ultrasound of donor kidneys to predict the risk of kidney problems after transplant. It may help doctors better understand transplant outcomes.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT05374291Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Dapagliflozin trial for kidney and heart outcomes in severe CKD
This study tests whether dapagliflozin can improve kidney and heart-related outcomes in people with severe chronic kidney disease (CKD). You would take the study medicine (or a comparison treatment) and be followed to see how your kidneys and heart do over time.
Canberra, Australian Capital TeritoryAges 18 years+ - NCT01957696Enrolling by invitation
Study of pancreas (and sometimes kidney) transplant outcomes
This study looks at people who receive a pancreas transplant, with or without a same-time kidney transplant, and follows them to understand their results. It may help improve how transplant teams choose patients and manage care after surgery.
OsloAges 18–65 - NCT06568549RecruitingPhase 4
Reducing Immunosuppression in Older Kidney Transplant Patients (RIOT Trial)
This trial tests whether older kidney transplant recipients can safely reduce their immunosuppression medications using a special monitoring tool called Trugraf. If you are over 55, have had a stable transplant, and want to possibly lower your medications, this study may be for you.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 55 years+ - NCT05234463Recruiting
Study links complement activity to IgA kidney disease severity
This study looks at how parts of the immune system (called complement) may relate to how severe IgA kidney disease is. It may help doctors understand disease activity better, even if the study is mainly observational.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT07219043RecruitingPhase 2
Felzartamab for kidney transplant patients with inflammation
This trial tests a drug called felzartamab to see if it can help people who have a type of kidney inflammation after a transplant, even without donor-specific antibodies. It might offer a new treatment option for those who are not getting better on their own.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18–74 - NCT07024238Enrolling by invitation
Short-chain fatty acid supplement for kidney transplant patients
This study tests whether taking a short-chain fatty acid (a type of fiber-like substance) supplement can improve gut health in people who have had a kidney transplant. It may help keep the transplant working well.
Martin, SlovakiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04877288RecruitingPhase 3
Switch some teen kidney transplant patients to belatacept
This Phase 3 study tests whether switching teens from one anti-rejection medicine to belatacept works as well as staying on the current regimen. It also looks at safety and whether patients can stay on their anti-rejection medicines.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 12–17 - NCT07423247RecruitingPhase 4
Tirzepatide for weight loss in kidney transplant patients
This trial tests if tirzepatide can help people who have had a kidney transplant and are still overweight lose weight. It may be an option if you have had your transplant at least a year ago, your kidney function is stable, and your body mass index is 27 or higher.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for kidney transplant rejection?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 79 recruiting kidney transplant rejection 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 transplant rejection 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 transplant rejection 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.
