Recruiting studies
- NCT01331668Recruiting
Kidney transplant biobank study for donors and recipients
This trial collects and stores health information and samples related to kidney transplants from both donors and recipients. It may help researchers better understand transplant outcomes and improve care in the future.

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 - NCT06326905Recruiting
Transplant help for kidney waitlist patients with barriers
This study helps people on the deceased donor kidney waitlist who have had setbacks like health issues, lack of support, or low income. It offers extra support to help you get ready for transplant.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT03778944Recruiting
Improving kidney graft function during donor kidney surgery
This study looks at ways to help a donated kidney work better after transplant. It is intended for people who are receiving a living-donor kidney transplant due to kidney failure.
CairoAges 18–60 - NCT06056102RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T cell therapy to help highly sensitized kidney transplant patients
This trial tests whether a special immune cell treatment (CAR-T cells) can lower the antibodies that make it very hard for you to receive a kidney transplant. If it works, you might become eligible for a transplant sooner.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–65 - NCT05159466Recruiting
Transplant from HIV-positive donors to HIV-positive recipients
This trial studies whether it’s safe and effective for HIV-positive people to receive organ transplants from HIV-positive donors. It focuses on matching HIV treatment before and after transplant and checking for major complications.
Metairie, LouisianaAges 18 years+ - NCT07224763RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Pig kidney transplant trial for kidney failure patients
This trial tests a genetically modified pig kidney (Thymokidney) for people with end-stage kidney disease who are on dialysis. It aims to see if this new type of transplant is safe and effective for those who cannot get a human kidney.
New York, New YorkAges 40–70 - NCT06878560RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Pig kidney transplant for kidney failure patients
This trial tests a special pig kidney (10 GE Xenokidney) as a transplant option for people with kidney failure who cannot get a human kidney. It aims to offer a life-saving alternative.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 40–70 - NCT06751602Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Belumosudil to prevent kidney scarring after transplant
This trial tests whether a drug called belumosudil can reduce scarring in the kidney after transplant. Scarring can lead to kidney damage over time, and this study aims to stop that from happening.
Houston, TexasAges 18–75 - 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+ - 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 - NCT06794203Recruiting
Does hyperthyroidism affect kidney transplant success?
This study looks at whether having an overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism) soon after a kidney transplant might affect how well the new kidney works. If you had a kidney transplant at this center and had thyroid tests within the first month, researchers will review your records.
Bologna, BOAges 18 years+ - NCT05015231Recruiting
MRI study after fistula closure in kidney transplant patients
This trial uses special MRI scans to see how blood flow in the transplanted kidney changes after your fistula is surgically closed. It may help doctors better understand what healthy recovery looks like after the procedure.
ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT07024238Enrolling by invitation
Short-chain fatty acid supplement for kidney transplant patients
This study tests whether taking a short-chain fatty acid (a type of fiber-like substance) supplement can improve gut health in people who have had a kidney transplant. It may help keep the transplant working well.
Martin, SlovakiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04240054RecruitingPhase 2
Study drugs before transplant for myeloma with kidney problems
This Phase 2 trial tests whether a combination of anti-myeloma medicines given before stem cell transplant works well and is safe for people with multiple myeloma who also have kidney problems. It may help control the myeloma and prepare you for the transplant.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT05950724Enrolling by invitationEarly Phase 1
TNF blocker to protect lungs after transplant
This early-stage trial tests whether blocking a specific inflammation signal (TNF-alpha) can help prevent or improve kidney problems and early graft (new lung) dysfunction after a lung transplant at Northwestern. You might be eligible if you’re scheduled for that transplant and are willing to go through study consent and follow-up.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06560801RecruitingPhase 4
Dapagliflozin for kidney health after transplant
This trial tests whether taking dapagliflozin (a drug often used for diabetes and heart health) can help improve kidney structure and blood flow in people who received a kidney transplant at least 9 months ago. It may benefit those whose kidney function is stable, regardless of whether they have diabetes.
Erlangen, BavariaAges 18–75 - NCT07446296Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for renal transplantation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 76 recruiting renal transplantation 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 transplantation 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 transplantation 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.
