Recruiting studies
- NCT06386796Recruiting
Using ultrasound to predict kidney trouble in high-risk patients
This study uses a simple ultrasound test (kidney artery scan) to see if it can predict kidney problems early in people who are very ill. It may help doctors protect your kidneys during your hospital stay.
Aswān, Aswan GovernorateAges 18–80 - NCT07445997Recruiting
HbA1c and kidney injury after heart bypass surgery
This study looks at whether blood sugar levels (HbA1c) before surgery are linked to kidney problems after coronary artery bypass surgery. It may help doctors understand how to reduce risks for people with diabetes or high blood sugar.
BursaAges 18 years+ - NCT07550790Recruiting
Preventing kidney injury during heart failure imaging scans
This study tests whether a specific water-based medication can prevent kidney damage when patients with acute heart failure need a CT scan with contrast dye. The trial focuses on people with mild-to-moderate kidney problems who are hospitalized for fluid buildup in the heart.
Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 20 years+ - NCT06234592Recruiting
Blood pressure medicines and kidney health in septic shock
This trial tests whether different blood pressure medicines protect kidney function better in people with septic shock (a severe infection that causes low blood pressure). It compares norepinephrine (the standard treatment) with other options to see which is best for the kidneys.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT06229990RecruitingPhase 4
Using furosemide stress test to stop kidney replacement therapy
This study tests whether a furosemide (a water pill) stress test can help doctors decide when to safely stop continuous kidney replacement therapy in ICU patients with severe acute kidney injury. It may allow you to come off the machine sooner if your kidneys respond well.
Chiang MaiAges 20 years+ - NCT03629977Recruiting
Timing dialysis in critically ill ICU patients
This study looks at the best timing for starting kidney support treatment (dialysis) in very sick people in the ICU. It may help improve outcomes by comparing different start times.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT06999161Recruiting
Tracking Antibiotic Levels in ICU Brain Injury Patients
This study monitors the amount of certain antibiotics in the blood of patients with acute brain injury in the intensive care unit. It aims to make sure the antibiotics are at the right level to fight infection, especially in patients whose kidneys are clearing drugs faster than normal.
NîmesAges 18 years+ - NCT06705855Recruiting
Predicting kidney injury after heart surgery using skin sensors
This study tests whether a special light-based monitor on your skin (near your kidney and arm) can predict kidney injury after heart surgery. It aims to help doctors protect your kidneys during and after the procedure.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 18 years+ - NCT04982419RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Remote arm treatment to protect heart and kidneys in heart failure
This trial tests whether a simple “arm cuff” treatment done before a heart artery procedure can help protect the kidneys and the heart in people with congestive heart failure. If it works, it may lower the chance of kidney injury around the time of the scan/stent procedure.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06570187RecruitingPhase 4
Dexmedetomidine for kidney protection in sepsis
This trial tests if dexmedetomidine, a sedative, can help protect the kidneys of critically ill patients with sepsis who develop acute kidney injury (a sudden drop in kidney function). It is for adults in the ICU who need a breathing tube or mask within 48 hours of kidney injury.
CairoAges 18–90 - NCT06180551Recruiting
Early kidney injury detection study in the ICU
This study tests a new way to diagnose acute kidney injury (sudden kidney damage) early in intensive care patients. It may help doctors catch kidney problems sooner and improve care.
Homburg, SaarlandAges 18 years+ - NCT06714214Recruiting
Predicting when you can stop kidney dialysis
This trial studies whether a blood test called delta C-cistatin can help doctors predict when patients can safely stop continuous kidney dialysis after acute kidney injury.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT06917859RecruitingPhase 1
Steroid to protect kidneys during heart surgery
This trial is testing whether a single dose of the steroid methylprednisolone, given before heart surgery, can protect your kidneys from damage during the operation. If you qualify, you'll receive the drug or a placebo, and your kidney function will be monitored closely.
Cairo, AbbasiaAges 18–65 - 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+ - NCT04936607Recruiting
Protecting kidney health after heart angiograms or stents
This study looks at ways to improve kidney outcomes after a coronary angiogram and/or stent procedure. If you’re having one of these heart procedures and your kidneys aren’t already severely affected, the study may help reduce the risk of kidney worsening around the time of the procedure.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06021288Recruiting
Standard vs. lower dose dialysis for kidney failure in intensive care
This trial compares the usual dose of continuous dialysis with a lower dose to see if a lower dose is just as safe and effective for critically ill patients with sudden kidney failure.
MünsterAges 18 years+ - NCT07418242Recruiting
New markers for kidney risk after heart surgery
This study looks at whether certain blood or urine markers can predict kidney problems in people having high-risk heart surgery. The goal is to find early warning signs so doctors can take steps to protect your kidneys.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–90 - NCT07212595RecruitingPhase 2
Amino acid therapy to protect kidneys after heart surgery in children
This trial is testing whether giving amino acids after heart surgery can help prevent kidney injury in children at high risk. If it works, it could offer a simple way to protect kidney function during recovery.
Cincinnati, OhioAges Up to 18 years - NCT07182422RecruitingPhase 4
AST-120 for kidney protection after acute kidney injury
This trial tests if the drug AST-120 (Kremezin) can help protect your kidneys and slow down further kidney decline after a recent acute kidney injury. It is for people who had a moderate to severe kidney injury during a hospital stay and now have mild to moderate chronic kidney damage.
TaoyuanAges 18–80 - NCT05728216Recruiting
Using a special eye-scan to study kidney biopsy samples
This study tests whether a noninvasive “eye-scan” during a kidney biopsy can help doctors tell the difference between acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease. If it works, it may improve how kidney problems are diagnosed in routine practice.
Chalon-sur-Saône, Saône-et-LoireAges 18 years+ - NCT06938542Enrolling by invitation
Palliative care needs for kids with rare diseases
This study asks children with rare diseases and their families about what kind of palliative care (comfort and support) they need. It aims to understand how to better help families through their child's illness.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 1–99 - NCT01793168Recruiting
Rare disease registry and history study
This study keeps a registry (a structured list) of people with rare diseases and may also track how the condition changes over time. It can help researchers better understand rare illnesses and find gaps in care, which may improve future treatments.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for renal injury?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 70 recruiting renal injury 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 injury 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 injury 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.
