Recruiting studies
- NCT03354728RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Vaccine trial for children with CMV after stem cell transplant
This trial studies a vaccine designed to help the body fight cytomegalovirus (CMV) in children who test positive for CMV and are about to receive a donor stem cell transplant. If it works, it may reduce CMV-related illness during recovery after transplant.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 1–21 - NCT05775718RecruitingPhase 2
Shingrix shot after bone marrow transplant to prevent shingles
This Phase 2 study tests whether an additional Shingrix (RZV) vaccine dose helps prevent shingles in people who previously had an allogeneic bone marrow or stem cell transplant. It focuses on people who are at least a year out from their first two Shingrix doses.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–79 - NCT05866783Recruiting
Blood test to predict cancer coming back after liver transplant
This study uses a blood test (looking at sugars in the blood) to help predict whether liver cancer will come back after a liver transplant. It may help doctors monitor you more accurately and earlier if cancer returns.
GhentAges 18 years+ - NCT06493526RecruitingPhase 4
Mycophenolate therapy for kidney transplant patients with no DQ mismatch
This trial tests a mycophenolate-based therapy for kidney transplant recipients who have no HLA-DQ mismatch. If you had your first kidney transplant 3-12 months ago without DQ mismatch and are on standard immunosuppressants, you may qualify.
Edegem, AntwerpAges 18 years+ - NCT07574398Recruiting
Growth and Development Study After Infant Liver Transplant
This study tracks how babies grow and develop after receiving a liver transplant. Researchers want to understand how transplantation affects children's physical growth and overall development in early infancy.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges Up to 1 year - NCT07288281Recruiting
Preoperative Clear Fluid Fasting in Liver Transplant
This trial looks at how long before surgery patients waiting for a liver transplant can drink clear fluids, like water. The goal is to find a safer or more comfortable fasting time.
Warsaw, WarszawaAges 18 years+ - NCT06336863Enrolling by invitation
DNA test to help kidney transplant patients switch to a single anti-rejection drug
This trial uses DNA testing and gene expression profiling to see if kidney transplant recipients can safely switch to a belatacept-only immunosuppression regimen. The goal is to simplify your anti-rejection drugs while keeping your kidney healthy.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07214688RecruitingPhase 2
Transplant Prep with Chemo, Radiation, and GVHD Prevention for Blood Cancers
This trial tests a standard transplant preparation (chemotherapy and low-dose radiation) followed by a special drug (PTCy) to prevent graft-versus-host disease after a donor stem cell transplant for blood cancers. It may help improve transplant success and reduce complications.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18–65 - NCT06706492Recruiting
Muscle oxygen and frailty in kidney transplant patients
This study looks at how well muscles use oxygen and how frailty affects kidney transplant recipients, especially those with weak breathing muscles. It may help understand why some patients feel more tired or weak after transplant.
AnkaraAges 18–65 - NCT06716541Recruiting
Biodegradable stent for bile duct narrowing after liver transplant
This study is testing a special temporary stent that breaks down over time to help open a narrowed bile duct after a liver transplant. It may help avoid long-term plastic stents or additional surgery.
PragueAges 18 years+ - NCT07181096Recruiting
Frailty in kidney transplant patients and kidney function
This study looks at frailty (weakness and tiredness) in kidney transplant patients and how it relates to how well the transplanted kidney is working. It may help find ways to improve long-term transplant health.
AlexandriaAges 18 years+ - NCT07600541Recruiting
Kidney Transplant Recipients' Views on AI in Medicine
This study asks kidney transplant recipients about their thoughts and feelings regarding artificial intelligence (AI) used in medicine. Your feedback helps researchers understand how patients view AI tools that could help with their transplant care.
Paris, Île-de-France RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT07294547Recruiting
Comparing two antivirals for kidney transplant patients
This trial compares two antiviral drugs, valacyclovir and valganciclovir, to see if valacyclovir works as well as valganciclovir for preventing CMV and EBV infections after a kidney transplant.
TaipeiAges 3 years+ - NCT05385432RecruitingPhase 3
Kidney transplant induction therapy for sensitized patients
This trial tests a specific “induction” treatment to help people who have stronger immune reactions from past sensitizing events during a kidney transplant. It may help improve how well the transplant works and how safely the immune system is managed.
ToursAges 18–79 - NCT05597540RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter antibiotics for kidney transplant kidney infections
This study compares giving antibiotics for 7 days versus 14 days to treat acute kidney infections (pyelonephritis) in people with kidney transplants. It aims to see if the shorter course works just as well and is safer or easier to complete.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT04494776Recruiting
Study of COVID-19 in kidney transplant patients
This study looks at what happens when people with kidney transplants get COVID-19. It may help improve how doctors monitor and manage COVID-19 in transplant recipients.
São Paulo, Aão PauloAges Any age - NCT07368153RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing EBV infection after kidney transplant
This trial tests if an experimental drug can prevent a common virus (EBV) from causing problems in people who receive a kidney from an EBV-positive donor but have never been exposed to EBV themselves. It aims to reduce the risk of transplant-related complications.
Bern, Canton of BernAges 18 years+ - NCT07189377RecruitingPhase 4
Light, ex-vivo treatment and antivirals for lungs from hepatitis B donors
This trial tests a new way to safely use donor lungs that carry the hepatitis B virus (HBV). It combines a special light treatment, ex-vivo lung perfusion (cleaning the lungs outside the body), and antiviral medicines to prevent infection in the recipient. If you are on the lung transplant list and have been vaccinated against hepatitis B, this study may help expand your donor options.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07689578RecruitingPhase 4
Testing a new immunotherapy for chronic kidney transplant rejection
This study tests a new treatment called BiTE (a type of immunotherapy that helps your immune cells attack harmful antibodies) for people whose transplanted kidney is being damaged by chronic active antibody-mediated rejection. The goal is to see if it can safely slow or stop this damage.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18 years+ - NCT06568549RecruitingPhase 4
Reducing Immunosuppression in Older Kidney Transplant Patients (RIOT Trial)
This trial tests whether older kidney transplant recipients can safely reduce their immunosuppression medications using a special monitoring tool called Trugraf. If you are over 55, have had a stable transplant, and want to possibly lower your medications, this study may be for you.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 55 years+ - NCT06018766RecruitingPhase 2
LAM-001 for lung transplant patients with BOS
This study tests whether the drug LAM-001 can help people who have developed a condition called bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) after a double lung transplant. BOS causes a slow decline in lung function, and this trial aims to see if LAM-001 can slow or stop that decline.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05581745Recruiting
Testing a lung transplant approach for certain blood type O patients
This study looks at lung transplants for people getting their first transplant who are blood type O and have low levels of antibodies that may react to donor tissue. It may help doctors choose the safest donor-recipient match for these patients.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT04877288RecruitingPhase 3
Switch some teen kidney transplant patients to belatacept
This Phase 3 study tests whether switching teens from one anti-rejection medicine to belatacept works as well as staying on the current regimen. It also looks at safety and whether patients can stay on their anti-rejection medicines.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 12–17 - NCT00736749Recruiting
