Belatacept vs anticalcineurins after kidney transplant
This study is comparing two medications after kidney transplant: Belatacept and anticalcineurins (like tacrolimus). It looks at how each affects blood vessel health. If you are more than a year post-transplant and have stable kidney function, you may be eligible.
RouenAges 18–75 - NCT06620523RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing kidney injury after heart bypass surgery
This trial tests whether combining two natural supplements (CoQ10 and glutathione) can protect your kidneys during heart bypass surgery. It may help prevent acute kidney injury, a common complication after these procedures.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18–70 - NCT07385651Recruiting
Cool storage for donated kidneys
This trial compares storing donated kidneys at 10 degrees Celsius (a cooler temperature) instead of the usual ice storage. It tests if this might help the kidney stay healthier before transplant.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT01886950Recruiting
Bone and blood-vessel changes around kidney transplant
This study looks at how bone structure and blood-vessel calcification change before and after a kidney transplant. It may help doctors better understand what to monitor for long-term health after transplantation.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges 18 years+ - NCT01016613Recruiting
Kidney health study that helps build a tissue and data bank
This study collects health information and biological samples to better understand kidney disease and support future kidney research. It may help your care indirectly by improving how kidney conditions are recognized and studied.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges Any age - NCT07578610Recruiting
Registry study of symptom descriptions using OpenGenome platform
This is an observational registry study that collects and analyzes symptom descriptions from patients using the OpenGenome platform. The goal is to better understand and extract health information from how people naturally describe their symptoms.
Friedrichshain, State of BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT05738694RecruitingPhase 3
Test axitinib plus immunotherapy before kidney cancer surgery
This study tests whether taking axitinib plus an immunotherapy drug (PD-1) before surgery can help people with kidney cancer live longer without the cancer coming back. It’s focused on people who have a higher-risk kidney tumor based on scans and pathology findings.
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT06322056Recruiting
Lower blood pressure and cholesterol targets for advanced kidney disease
This trial tests whether keeping blood pressure and cholesterol at lower-than-usual levels can help slow the decline of kidney function in people with advanced chronic kidney disease. If you have moderately to severely reduced kidney function and meet certain blood pressure and cholesterol criteria, you may be able to join.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT07049926RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Combination therapy study for advanced kidney cancer
This trial tests new drug combinations for people with advanced kidney cancer whose disease returned after a prior immunotherapy. It's designed to find better treatment options for those who have not received other treatments for advanced disease.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–120 - NCT07259512RecruitingPhase 4
Ramipril once or twice a day for kidney and heart health

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for renal disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 261 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.
