Renal denervation for heart failure with preserved heart strength
This trial studies whether a procedure that calms overactive kidney nerves (renal denervation) can improve symptoms and heart function in people with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. It also checks that the kidney arteries are suitable and that your blood pressure and heart pressure measurements meet the study targets.
Halle, Saxony-AnhaltAges 18–80 - 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+ - 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+ - NCT06025240Recruiting
Better antibody monitoring after kidney transplant
This study tests a new way to monitor harmful antibodies after a kidney transplant. It may help prevent transplant rejection over time.

A tool to measure how well peritoneal dialysis works
This study is testing a new computer tool that helps doctors see how well peritoneal dialysis (a type of kidney treatment done at home) removes waste from your body. It may help make your dialysis more effective.
TuenmenAges 18 years+ - NCT06728228Recruiting
Amnioinfusion for fetal kidney failure
This trial is testing whether adding fluid back into the womb (amnioinfusion) can help babies whose kidneys are not working and who have no amniotic fluid early in pregnancy. It may improve the baby's chances of survival and lung development.
Dallas, TexasAges Any age - NCT05817539Recruiting
Early circulation-focused care during kidney dialysis in ICU
This trial looks at whether starting dialysis-related care early, aimed at improving blood flow to tissues, can help people in the ICU who have sudden kidney failure. It may help reduce problems related to poor tissue circulation, but it is very specific about ICU illness and current treatments.
AjaccioAges 18 years+ - NCT07631221Recruiting
Protein Amount in Nutrition for Critically Ill Kidney Patients
This study tests whether different amounts of protein in tube feeding or IV nutrition affect kidney recovery in patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) with kidney injury. The goal is to find the best protein level to help kidneys heal while patients are critically ill.
Buenos Aires, Buenos AiresAges 18 years+ - NCT06659835Recruiting
Amino acid loss during kidney dialysis in the ICU
This study looks at how many amino acids (building blocks of protein) are lost during continuous kidney dialysis in patients in the intensive care unit after surgery. It may help doctors better understand how to support nutrition in these patients.
Vienna, State of ViennaAges 18 years+ - NCT07626710Recruiting
How Heart Valve Replacement Affects Kidney Function
This study looks at whether a minimally invasive heart valve procedure (TAVI) affects how well your kidneys work. Researchers will track your kidney function before and after the procedure using blood tests to understand any changes.
Roma, RMAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT05836922Recruiting
Checking kidney oxygen after lung transplant to predict kidney injury
This pilot study looks at whether a painless skin sensor can measure kidney oxygen levels after lung transplant surgery. The goal is to predict and possibly prevent postoperative kidney failure by identifying risk early.
MarseilleAges 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 - NCT06794216Recruiting
Comparing dialysis methods to clean blood in kidney failure
This study compares different types of dialysis to see which removes waste products (uremic toxins) best from the blood. If you have been on dialysis for at least 6 months and use the same filter for a year, this trial may help find a better way to clean your blood.
Bologna, Emilia-RomagnaAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT04823923Recruiting
How kidney failure affects drug levels in metastatic kidney cancer
This study looks at how chronic kidney failure changes the amount of certain cancer medicines in the blood. It involves people with metastatic clear cell kidney cancer who take pazopanib or cabozantinib, and compares drug levels in different kidney function groups.
MarseilleAges 18 years+ - NCT05992363Recruiting
Comparing stents for malignant ureteral blockage
This trial tests whether using two newer stents (Tandem Polyurethane) works better than the standard single silicone stent for people whose urine tubes are blocked by cancer. The goal is to improve urine flow and relieve discomfort.
Petah TikvaAges 18 years+ - NCT06054035RecruitingPhase 4
SGLT2 inhibitor for prediabetes complications

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for renal failure?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 102 recruiting 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 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 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.
