Recruiting studies
- NCT07045467RecruitingPhase 1

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+ - NCT04626167RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing a bladder transplant done with a kidney transplant
This early-phase study is testing a combined bladder and kidney transplant approach for people whose bladder problems damage the kidneys. The goal is to see if this treatment can improve bladder and kidney outcomes and be done safely.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 1–60 - 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+ - 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 - 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+ - NCT03955172Recruiting
Test of everolimus to reduce transplant rejection
This trial studies whether everolimus can improve outcomes for people whose kidney transplant biopsy shows signs of a specific type of immune attack. It focuses on patients without certain antibodies and with particular biopsy findings, aiming to prevent rejection-related injury while balancing medication side effects.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT07663669Recruiting
Photopheresis for antibody-mediated rejection in kidney transplant
This study looks at how well extracorporeal photopheresis (a treatment that filters and treats your blood with light) works for kidney transplant patients who have antibody-mediated rejection (when your immune system attacks the new kidney). It may help doctors understand if this treatment can stop the rejection.
BesançonAges 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+ - NCT07689578RecruitingPhase 4
Testing a new immunotherapy for chronic kidney transplant rejection
This study tests a new treatment called BiTE (a type of immunotherapy that helps your immune cells attack harmful antibodies) for people whose transplanted kidney is being damaged by chronic active antibody-mediated rejection. The goal is to see if it can safely slow or stop this damage.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 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 - NCT06769191RecruitingEarly Phase 1
CD7 car-t, stem cell transplant, and kidney transplant for SIOD
This trial tests a sequence of treatments for SIOD (a genetic condition causing immune and kidney problems). First, you receive CD7 car-t cells, then a stem cell transplant from a family donor, followed by a kidney transplant from the same donor. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and can help your body accept the new kidney.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges Any age - NCT06881927RecruitingPhase 4
Reducing anti-rejection meds in ICU for kidney transplant patients
This study tests whether quickly reducing your anti-rejection medicines during a life-threatening ICU stay can help your kidneys recover and improve your overall outcome. It is for kidney transplant recipients with septic shock or severe breathing failure.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT05600634Recruiting
Monitoring skin graft to spot rejection after kidney transplant
This study follows people after a kidney transplant to see if a small skin graft can help detect early signs of acute rejection. It may help your care team notice rejection sooner and adjust treatment earlier.
Xi'an, ShannxiAges 18–60 - NCT04713774Recruiting
Tracking bone and blood vessel changes after kidney transplant
This study follows people who recently received a kidney transplant to see how bone strength and blood-vessel calcifications change over time. It may help doctors better understand what to monitor after transplant and how best to protect bone and heart health.
LiègeAges 18 years+ - NCT07205692Recruiting
Heart health and multiple conditions after kidney transplant
This study looks at how common heart problems and other health conditions affect kidney transplant patients over time. Researchers hope to learn how to better manage these risks.
Derby, DerbyshireAges 18 years+ - NCT06210555Recruiting
MRI Study of Kidney Donors, Recipients, and Healthy People
This study uses advanced MRI scans to look at kidney health in living donors, transplant recipients, and healthy people. It aims to find links between MRI results and kidney function, fibrosis (scarring), and aging.
Aarhus, Central JutlandAges 18–80 - NCT06040281Recruiting
Smart and fit for kidney transplant
This trial tests if a smartphone app can help people on dialysis get ready for a kidney transplant. You'll get support with exercise, nutrition, and emotional health.
Erlangen, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT06560801RecruitingPhase 4
Dapagliflozin for kidney health after transplant
This trial tests whether taking dapagliflozin (a drug often used for diabetes and heart health) can help improve kidney structure and blood flow in people who received a kidney transplant at least 9 months ago. It may benefit those whose kidney function is stable, regardless of whether they have diabetes.
Erlangen, BavariaAges 18–75 - NCT05708508RecruitingPhase 3
Immune-guided vs universal medicine to prevent CMV after kidney transplant
This study compares two strategies to prevent a viral infection called CMV after kidney transplant. It tests whether an “immune-guided” approach (using your immune test results) can prevent CMV as well as or better than giving preventive antiviral medicine to everyone.
RouenAges 18–75 - 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.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–70 - 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.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for kidney transplantation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 237 recruiting kidney transplantation 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 transplantation 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 transplantation 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.
