Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT03101995RecruitingPhase 2
Gemcitabine with radiation for locally advanced cervical cancer
This trial studies whether adding gemcitabine (a chemotherapy medicine) to standard radiation can better treat locally advanced cervical cancer. It also focuses on whether this treatment is safe and effective for people with reduced kidney function.
Mexico City, Mexico CityAges 18–70 - NCT03321656RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Envarsus XR after kidney transplant to reduce hidden rejection
This study looks at whether Envarsus XR helps prevent “subclinical” (not obviously noticeable) kidney transplant rejection by changing blood immune test results. You may be able to join if you recently received a kidney transplant and can take the study medicine as required.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18–75 - NCT03787589Recruiting
Exercise program for people on dialysis
This trial studies whether a structured exercise program (using Nordic walking poles) is safe and helpful for adults with end-stage kidney disease who are on dialysis. You may be eligible if you can do the exercise safely and are able to consent.
Ottawa, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT03862859RecruitingPhase 4
Warfarin safety for people with atrial fibrillation on dialysis
This trial studies whether the blood thinner warfarin is safe and effective for preventing stroke and blood clots in people who have atrial fibrillation and need long-term dialysis. It may help your care team better balance clot prevention against bleeding risk.
Herlev, HerlevAges 18 years+ - NCT03994471RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new peritoneal dialysis fluid for kidney failure
This Phase 3 trial studies how well a new peritoneal dialysis solution works and whether it is safe. It’s meant for adults with kidney failure who already do a specific type of at-home dialysis.
AalborgAges 18 years+ - NCT06516653Recruiting
Study of VasQ implant for new dialysis fistula support
This study tests a small mesh support called VasQ that is placed around your new fistula to help it heal and stay open longer. It is for people who are getting a new fistula for dialysis access.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT04044963Recruiting
Exercise program before kidney transplant to improve physical strength
This trial tests whether a home exercise program before kidney transplant can improve physical function and strength. If you’re getting a transplant and can safely exercise, you may be able to join the study and help compare outcomes.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 19 years+ - NCT04580420RecruitingPhase 2
Study of an oxalate-lowering medicine for PH1 and kidney failure
