Recruiting studies near Riverside–San Bernardino
- NCT05084768Recruiting
Test blood markers to predict kidney transplant rejection
This study looks at special blood tests to help predict when kidney transplant rejection might happen. If the markers work, they could help doctors catch rejection earlier and adjust treatment sooner.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05653232Recruiting
Preventing hepatitis C in kidney transplant recipients using antiviral pills
This study tests antiviral medicine given around the time of a kidney transplant to prevent hepatitis C infection when the donor has hepatitis C. It may help uninfected recipients stay hepatitis C–free after receiving the kidney.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 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 - NCT05106387Recruiting
Study follow-up for people who had a kidney transplant
This study follows adults who previously received vonsetamig in an earlier study and then got a kidney transplant while enrolled. It mainly looks at what happens after the transplant and helps doctors understand outcomes over time.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18–70 - NCT06126380Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Long-term safety of tegoprubart in kidney transplant patients
This is a long-term follow-up study for people who have already completed a study of the drug tegoprubart after a kidney transplant. It checks how safe and effective the drug is over a longer period.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18–100 - 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.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 12–17 - NCT06918990RecruitingPhase 1
CarBel for antibody-mediated rejection after kidney transplant
This study tests a new drug called CarBel to treat antibody-mediated rejection in kidney transplant patients. The goal is to see if it can help stop the rejection and protect your new kidney.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT06055608RecruitingPhase 2
Improving kidney transplant outcomes in teens and young adults
This trial tests a new approach to help teenagers and young adults keep their first kidney transplant working well. It looks at how to improve long-term success by carefully managing the immune system around the time of transplant.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 13–20 - NCT06830798RecruitingPhase 3
Ravulizumab to prevent delayed graft function after kidney transplant
This study tests an investigational medicine (ravulizumab) given through a vein to see if it can prevent delayed graft function—meaning the new kidney takes longer to start working—after a high-risk kidney transplant. It is for adults on dialysis who are getting a kidney from a donor whose heart stopped or who is considered high-risk.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06919003RecruitingPhase 2
Improving kidney transplant with a single injection of a protective protein
This trial tests whether a single injection of C1 esterase inhibitor into a donated kidney during preservation can improve transplant outcomes. It is for adults on dialysis waiting for a deceased-donor kidney who meet specific blood and tissue matching requirements.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - 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 - NCT07060716Recruiting
Blood test to monitor kidney transplant health
This study is testing a blood test that looks for tiny pieces of the donor's DNA in your blood to check how your new kidney is doing. It may help doctors monitor your transplant and spot problems early, possibly without needing a biopsy.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07199465RecruitingPhase 1
Letermovir for children after a kidney transplant
This study tests an oral antiviral medication called letermovir to see if it safely prevents CMV (a common virus) in children who have recently had a kidney transplant. It's for children ages typically 4 weeks to about a year post-transplant, with stable kidney function and no current CMV infection.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Up to 17 years - NCT06337942Recruiting
Bladder or kidney-bladder transplant from a deceased donor
This trial offers a first-in-human transplant of a bladder or a kidney combined with a bladder from a deceased donor. It is for people with severe bladder problems or bladder cancer who already need a new bladder or are on immune-suppressing medicines for a prior organ transplant.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–70 - NCT05896839RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Immunotherapy with prednisone and sirolimus for transplant skin cancer
This early-phase study tests whether adding immunotherapy (nivolumab and ipilimumab) to prednisone and sirolimus can control advanced skin cancers in people with kidney transplants. It aims to see how well the treatment works and how safe it is for transplant recipients.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05525507RecruitingPhase 1
Test early immune-tolerance treatment for matched kidney transplant patients
This Phase 1 study tests a treatment plan given after a kidney transplant to help the immune system stay calm and reduce the risk of rejection. Participants must have a well-functioning kidney transplant from a closely matched living donor and meet health and safety requirements.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03707262RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Brother or sister donor transplant using kidney and stem cells
This study tests a combined approach for kidney transplant patients: standard living-donor kidney transplant plus an added “stem cell” component taken from the same sibling donor. It aims to improve transplant outcomes by trying to better control the immune response and reduce complications.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05917522RecruitingPhase 2
Biomarker-guided changes to anti-rejection medicines after kidney transplant
This Phase 2 study looks at whether blood test “biomarkers” can guide safely changing anti-rejection medicines after an ABO-compatible kidney transplant. It may help some people reduce certain medicines while keeping the new kidney protected from rejection.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–70 - NCT06877169Recruiting
Staged heart and kidney transplant study
This study compares two ways of doing a combined heart and kidney transplant. It looks at doing the surgeries in separate stages instead of all at once, to see if that is safer or works better.
