Autoantibody study in nephrotic syndrome
This study looks for specific proteins (autoantibodies) in your blood that may be linked to certain kidney diseases. It aims to better understand the immune system's role in minimal change disease and FSGS, which could lead to better treatments.
Ranica, BGAges 18 years+ - NCT06607991RecruitingPhase 1
Blinatumomab for children with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome
This trial tests a drug called blinatumomab for children with a kidney condition that doesn't respond to standard treatments. It aims to see if it can help when other drugs have failed or caused side effects.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 2–17 - NCT06622915Recruiting
Heart health in kids with kidney condition
This study looks at how different types of nephrotic syndrome affect heart function in children. It may help doctors understand the heart risks in kids who need steroids for a long time compared to those whose condition doesn't respond to steroids.
SohagAges 2–14 - NCT07091175RecruitingPhase 2
Dupilumab for nephrotic syndrome in children
This trial tests if dupilumab can help children with nephrotic syndrome who still have relapses despite standard treatments. It aims to find a better way to control the disease and reduce steroid side effects.
Singapore, SingaporeAges 6–18 - NCT07214818RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
SGLT2 Inhibitors for Adult Primary Nephrotic Syndrome
This trial tests whether SGLT2 inhibitors (a type of diabetes medicine) can help adults with primary nephrotic syndrome, a kidney disease that causes protein leakage and swelling. It aims to see if the drug can protect kidney function and reduce protein loss.
Al Mansurah, Dakahlia GovernorateAges 18 years+ - NCT01605266Recruiting
Study of insights in children with nephrotic syndrome
This study looks at children’s experiences and understanding of nephrotic syndrome using questionnaires. It aims to learn what helps families and children, which could improve care over time.
Brampton, OntarioAges 6 months–18 years - NCT07516964Recruiting
Studying autoimmune kidney disease in children and adults
This study collects medical information and samples from patients with podocytopathy—a type of autoimmune kidney disease that causes protein leakage into urine. Researchers will analyze your medical records and any blood or kidney tissue samples you've already had to better understand the disease and find better treatments.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges birth–99 years - NCT06373913Recruiting
PCSK9's role in kidney damage in nephrotic syndrome
This study looks at how a protein called PCSK9 might affect kidney damage in people with nephrotic syndrome. It is for adults admitted to Kolding Hospital and aims to better understand the link between this protein and kidney problems.
KoldingAges 18 years+ - NCT06820866Recruiting
Non-invasive diagnosis for nephrotic syndrome

- How do I know if I qualify for a nephrotic syndrome 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 nephrotic syndrome 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.
