Recruiting studies in Michigan
- NCT06500702RecruitingPhase 2
Study of three drugs for FSGS or minimal change disease
This study tests three experimental drugs (frexalimab, brivekimig, and rilzabrutinib) for people ages 16 to 75 with a type of kidney disease called primary FSGS or minimal change disease. The goal is to see if these drugs can reduce protein in your urine and help protect your kidneys.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 16–75 - NCT04571658Recruiting
NEPTUNE Match study linking you to possible kidney research trials
This study is an add-on process that uses information from the NEPTUNE kidney study to see whether you might be able to join other kidney research trials. It may help connect eligible people with appropriate new treatment studies when they become available.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 1–80 - NCT05003986RecruitingPhase 2
Sparsentan for children with protein leaking kidney diseases
This Phase 2 study tests sparsentan in children with certain kidney diseases that cause high amounts of protein in the urine. It aims to see if the medicine can reduce kidney damage signals and protein leakage compared with standard care.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 1–17 - NCT05505500Recruiting
Parent and patient interviews for childhood kidney swelling
This study uses interviews to understand how swelling from nephrotic syndrome affects daily life for children and their caregivers. It may help researchers design better care by capturing the patient and parent perspective.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 2 years+ - NCT05650619Recruiting
Study of return of kidney disease after transplant
This observational study looks at people with FSGS or minimal change disease whose kidney disease came back after a transplant. The goal is to better understand patterns of recurrence and what factors may be linked to it.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges Any age - NCT01209000Recruiting
Study for children with new kidney protein loss
This study is for children (and some newly diagnosed patients) who have nephrotic syndrome—kidneys leaking a lot of protein. It aims to better understand the kidney condition (sometimes using biopsy) and support future care decisions.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges Up to 80 years - NCT07409246RecruitingPhase 1
Study of ABBV-438 for multiple myeloma patients
This trial tests a new intravenous treatment, ABBV-438, for adults with multiple myeloma that has returned or not responded to prior therapies. It aims to see if the drug is safe, tolerable, and how it moves through the body.

What taking part in a minimal change disease study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there minimal change disease clinical trials in Michigan?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 7 recruiting minimal change disease studies with a site in Michigan, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a minimal change disease study in Michigan?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Michigan to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Michigan, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a minimal change disease trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
