Mapping immune system genes in Greek adults
This study maps immune system genes (HLA) in Greek adults. It uses a simple cheek swab sample to collect data, with no experimental treatment.

Robotic kidney transplant from living donors
This trial studies the results of kidney transplants using robotic surgery from living donors. It may help patients receive kidneys with potentially less impact from surgery.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–65 - NCT06677437Recruiting
Preparing blood vessels for kidney transplant
This trial tests a procedure to fix blocked or damaged blood vessels in the pelvis so you can get a kidney transplant. It might help if your blood vessels are the only reason you can't have a transplant yet.
BronAges 18–85 - NCT06907667Recruiting
Do timing of flu shot affect protection in kidney failure?
This study looks at whether getting a flu shot at a different time of day affects how well it works in people with chronic kidney failure, including those on dialysis or with a kidney transplant. Researchers want to see if timing can improve the body's immune response to the vaccine.

Long-term growth hormone check for children with short stature
This study follows children who are short for their age and checks how safe and effective growth hormone is over the long term. It may help families understand expected benefits and side effects for their specific growth-related condition.
SeoulAges 2 years+ - NCT07535320Recruiting
What Dialysis Treatment Do Patients Prefer?
This research study asks patients with advanced kidney disease about their preferences for different dialysis treatment options before starting treatment. Your feedback helps doctors understand what matters most to patients when choosing how to manage their kidney disease.
CaenAges 18 years+ - NCT07428395Enrolling by invitation
Monitoring during continuous kidney replacement therapy in the ICU
This study tests a new way to monitor patients while they receive continuous kidney replacement therapy (a type of dialysis) in the ICU. It aims to see if this monitoring can be done safely and smoothly, helping doctors track your treatment better.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07259512RecruitingPhase 4
Ramipril once or twice a day for kidney and heart health
This trial tests whether taking ramipril once or twice daily better protects kidney function in people with both chronic kidney disease (stages 3-5, not on dialysis) and heart failure with low pumping strength. It aims to find the best dosing schedule to help both organs.
Kartasura, Central JavaAges 18 years+ - NCT03276273Recruiting
Check brain-wave changes in people starting dialysis for the first time
This trial looks at brain activity (using a painless EEG, which measures brain waves) in people who are starting hemodialysis for the first time. It aims to understand what happens to brain activity when dialysis begins, and whether specific patterns are seen.
DalianAges 18–90 - NCT07650474Recruiting
Mobile app for heart failure management and quality of life
This study tests whether using a mobile phone app to monitor and manage chronic heart failure improves how you feel and function day-to-day. Researchers will check in with you regularly through your phone to track your symptoms and health.
Addis AbabaAges 18–65 - NCT06360380Recruiting
Wearable device for fluid removal in heart failure
This trial tests a wearable device that removes extra fluid from your body without using the kidneys. It may help people with heart failure who still have fluid buildup despite taking high doses of water pills.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 21–79 - NCT07348237RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new kidney disease drug in patients with kidney failure
This trial tests the safety of a new medicine (MK-2828) in people with advanced kidney disease or on dialysis, and compares them to healthy volunteers. The goal is to understand how the drug works in the body and if it's safe for these patients.
Miami Lakes, FloridaAges 24–85 - NCT05326399Recruiting
Kidney biopsies after liver transplant for new kidney problems
This trial studies kidney biopsies in people who had a liver transplant and then developed new signs of kidney damage. The goal is to better understand what’s causing the problem and how to guide next steps.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT05097898Recruiting
Check fluid buildup in heart failure with normal pumping
This study evaluates how well doctors can assess “fluid congestion” in people with chronic heart failure where the heart’s squeezing is still preserved. It may help improve how patients are monitored during hospital visits.
Vandœuvre-lès-NancyAges 18 years+ - NCT05089162Recruiting
Testing a heart ultrasound approach in chronic heart failure
This study looks at people with chronic heart failure with weaker pumping function and checks how well a lung/heart ultrasound can assess congestion (fluid buildup). If you qualify, you may help test a better way to evaluate your condition during a planned hospital visit.
Vandœuvre-lès-NancyAges 18 years+ - NCT06706791RecruitingPhase 4
Empagliflozin for heart failure & diabetes: quality of life study
This trial tests whether a diabetes medicine called empagliflozin can improve the quality of life for people who have both chronic heart failure with a weak heart pump and type 2 diabetes. It compares the effects of adding empagliflozin to your current treatments.
Karachi, SindhAges 40–70 - NCT06006819Recruiting
Acute heart failure with chronic kidney disease study
This trial studies how certain markers in the blood can predict outcomes in people with acute heart failure who also have chronic kidney disease. If you qualify, researchers will follow your health during this hospital stay.
Taipei, Baitou DistrictAges 20–90 - NCT06987604Enrolling by invitation
Dialysis intensity for high ammonia in liver failure
This trial tests if a higher intensity of continuous dialysis (CRRT) better lowers ammonia levels in patients with liver failure. It aims to find the best approach to reduce brain complications from high ammonia.
Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do SulAges 18 years+ - NCT07029503RecruitingPhase 2
Heart failure and kidney function study
This trial tests a new treatment for people with heart failure and severely reduced kidney function. It aims to see if the treatment can help protect both the heart and kidneys.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT06785506Recruiting
Personalized heart failure treatment using multiple biomarkers
This trial tests if using a combination of biomarkers can help personalize treatment for people with a specific type of heart failure called HFpEF (or heart failure with preserved ejection fraction). It aims to find better treatments based on your individual test results.
Alkmaar, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT01802034Recruiting
Study kidney samples to understand autoimmune, inflammatory, and diabetic disease
This trial collects and studies kidney tissue samples to better understand what drives kidney problems linked to autoimmune, inflammation, and diabetes. Your participation may help researchers develop better ways to diagnose and treat these conditions.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chronic renal failure?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 138 recruiting chronic renal failure 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 chronic renal failure 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 chronic renal failure 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.
