Recruiting studies
- NCT06521801Recruiting
The Heart-Kidney Health Registry Study
This is an observational registry that collects information from people with kidney disease who are seen by the kidney team at Royal London Hospital. It helps researchers study heart and kidney health over time without needing extra tests or visits.
LondonAges 16 years+ - NCT07593352Recruiting
Kidney Health in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients
This study compares kidney function between people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and those without it. Researchers want to understand if IBD affects the kidneys and why, which could help protect kidney health in IBD patients.
Warsaw, WarszawaAges 18–80 - NCT06249932RecruitingPhase 4
Empagliflozin for heart failure and end-stage kidney disease
This trial tests whether empagliflozin, a medication for heart failure, can help people who also have end-stage kidney disease and are on dialysis. It aims to see if the drug improves heart function in this group.
Hsinchu, TaiwanAges 20 years+ - NCT06249945RecruitingPhase 4
Empagliflozin for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and dialysis
This trial tests whether a medicine called empagliflozin (used for diabetes and heart failure) can help people with both heart failure (with preserved pumping ability) and end-stage kidney disease who are on dialysis. The study looks at how the drug affects heart function and overall well-being.
HsinchuAges 20 years+ - NCT07231757Recruiting
Blood pressure study for older adults
This study tests a treatment to lower blood pressure in adults aged 65 and older whose blood pressure is not well controlled with their current medications. It may be an option for those looking for additional ways to manage their hypertension.
Detroit, MichiganAges 65 years+ - NCT06755372Recruiting
TLR-4 in gum disease patients with kidney failure
This study looks at a specific immune marker (TLR-4) in people with gum disease, comparing those who also have end-stage kidney disease (on dialysis) to those who are otherwise healthy. The goal is to understand how gum disease might be different when kidney failure is also present.
Al Fayyum, Faiyum GovernorateAges 30–60 - NCT07793929RecruitingPhase 1
Kidney function and study drug levels
This study checks how different levels of kidney function affect the levels of a new investigational drug called Ribupatide in the blood. It helps doctors understand how the drug works in people with various kidney conditions.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18–85 - NCT07678073Recruiting
Comparing Anesthesia Types for Kidney Transplants
This study compares two types of anesthesia (general gas anesthesia vs. a spinal-plus-epidural method) during living-donor kidney transplants to see how they affect certain body signals related to cell health and aging. If you are having a kidney transplant from a living donor and are in good overall health, this trial could help doctors learn which anesthesia may be better for you.
Gaziantep, State/ProvinceAges 18–70 - NCT06790498Enrolling by invitation
Long-term follow-up after renal cell therapy for kidney disease
This study follows people who previously received an experimental treatment called REACT for chronic kidney disease in earlier clinical trials. Its goal is to monitor their health over time.
Meridian, IdahoAges 30–80 - NCT06001827Recruiting
Study of a wrap to help new dialysis access points heal
This trial tests a special wrap placed around a new arm access point for dialysis (called an AV fistula) to see if it helps the access stay healthy and work better. It is for people who need a new AV fistula for kidney dialysis.
Bullhead City, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT02770066Recruiting
Registry study of PTRA in difficult-to-control blood pressure
This study keeps track of people with renovascular hypertension (high blood pressure likely linked to blocked kidney arteries) who may receive a procedure called PTRA. It aims to understand who benefits and how kidney and heart outcomes change over time.
AalborgAges Any age - NCT06829134Recruiting
Kidney nerve block for high blood pressure during surgery
This trial tests if numbing the nerves around the kidney artery during laparoscopic surgery can better control high blood pressure. It is for people already needing surgery for certain kidney or adrenal conditions who also have hypertension.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT06903559RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Roxadustat for heart and nutrition in dialysis patients
This study tests whether roxadustat can help improve heart health, nutrition, and reduce inflammation in people on hemodialysis. It may offer a new treatment option for anemia related to kidney disease.
Al Mansurah, DakahliyaAges 18 years+ - NCT07013929Recruiting
Spyral Insight study for hard-to-treat high blood pressure
This study tests a device (Spyral catheter) that uses radio waves to calm overactive nerves in the kidney arteries, which may help lower blood pressure. It is for people who still have high blood pressure even while taking 1 to 3 medications.
AthensAges 20–70 - NCT05846581Recruiting
Dialysis graft registry for adults getting a new vascular graft
This registry follows adults with kidney failure who need a dialysis access connection in the arm using the GORE ACUSEAL graft. It helps track outcomes and safety over time while you receive standard dialysis care.
BielefeldAges 18 years+ - NCT05422534RecruitingPhase 3
CoQ10 plus exercise for people with advanced kidney disease
This trial tests whether a supplement called CoQ10, along with supervised exercise, can improve how the body uses energy in people on chronic dialysis. It may help with muscle function and overall health if your heart and dialysis situation are stable enough.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT04654000Recruiting
Rheopheresis to treat painful skin damage in calciphylaxis
This trial studies whether a treatment called rheopheresis, added to standard care, can help people with calciphylaxis whose skin wounds are getting worse. It may be considered when ulcers or dead (necrotic) skin appear despite conventional treatment.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT06906874RecruitingPhase 2
Activated charcoal for kidney disease patients on dialysis
This trial tests if taking activated charcoal by mouth can help people with advanced kidney disease who are already on dialysis. It may improve how the body handles certain waste products and reduce the need for other medicines.
Al Mansurah, Please SelectAges 18 years+ - NCT07763418RecruitingPhase 1
Kidney function study of golcadomide
This study tests how a new drug, golcadomide, works in people with severe kidney problems compared to those with normal kidneys. It helps see if the drug needs different dosing for patients with kidney issues.
Chandler, ArizonaAges 18–84 - NCT07710183Recruiting
Pumpkin seed oil for hemodialysis patients
This study tests if pumpkin seed oil, a natural supplement, can improve health in people on long-term dialysis. It may help with inflammation and nutrition without using prescription drugs.
Baghdad, KarkhAges 18 years+ - NCT06750575Recruiting
Study of furosemide on toxin removal in chronic kidney disease
This study tests whether the water pill furosemide can help remove certain toxins from the blood in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD stages 3-5) who are starting this medicine as part of their regular care.
Utrecht, UtrechtAges 18 years+ - NCT07531966Recruiting
Blood Vessel Problems After Kidney Transplant Treatment
This study looks at treating narrowing or blockage of blood vessels in transplanted kidneys. If your transplanted kidney is showing signs of not working well and imaging shows a blocked vessel, this trial tests whether a procedure called angioplasty (opening the vessel with a tiny balloon) can help restore blood flow and improve kidney function.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT07224776RecruitingPhase 1
Sparsentan for proteinuria from VEGF inhibitor cancer treatment
This trial tests if sparsentan can reduce high levels of protein in the urine caused by VEGF signaling pathway inhibitors (VSPIs), a type of cancer treatment. It may help protect kidney function during cancer therapy.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for renal disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 254 recruiting renal disease 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 renal disease 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 renal disease 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.
