DalianAges 18–90 - NCT07346118Recruiting
Guided fluid management in severe kidney failure using ultrasound
This study tests a new way to manage fluids in patients with acute kidney injury who are receiving a type of dialysis called continuous renal replacement therapy. The method uses ultrasound to check blood flow in the veins and kidneys to guide fluid decisions, which may help recovery.
BangkokAges 18 years+ - NCT07185100Recruiting
Finding early heart failure in at-risk adults across Germany
This study uses heart MRI scans to find unrecognized heart failure in people who have risk factors like diabetes, kidney disease, high blood pressure, or obesity but haven't been diagnosed with heart failure yet. If you join, you will help researchers learn how common hidden heart failure is and take an important step for your own heart health.
BerlinAges 40–69 - 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 - NCT07508787RecruitingPhase 2
Study comparing siplizumab to another drug for kidney transplant acceptance
This trial tests a new drug, siplizumab, to see if it helps the body accept a donated kidney better than a standard treatment. It is for people receiving a kidney transplant from a living or deceased donor.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–70 - 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 - NCT07008365RecruitingPhase 3
Measuring belly pressure and ultrasound to guide fluid removal in heart failure
This trial tests whether using belly pressure and bedside ultrasound can help doctors better manage fluid removal (decongestion) in people hospitalized with heart failure. The goal is to see if this approach leads to better outcomes.
ZaragozaAges 18–100 - NCT05084768Recruiting
Test blood markers to predict kidney transplant rejection
This study looks at special blood tests to help predict when kidney transplant rejection might happen. If the markers work, they could help doctors catch rejection earlier and adjust treatment sooner.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04626167RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing a bladder transplant done with a kidney transplant
This early-phase study is testing a combined bladder and kidney transplant approach for people whose bladder problems damage the kidneys. The goal is to see if this treatment can improve bladder and kidney outcomes and be done safely.
