Pavia, LombardyAges Any age - NCT07423247RecruitingPhase 4
Tirzepatide for weight loss in kidney transplant patients
This trial tests if tirzepatide can help people who have had a kidney transplant and are still overweight lose weight. It may be an option if you have had your transplant at least a year ago, your kidney function is stable, and your body mass index is 27 or higher.
TehranAges 18 years+ - NCT07385651Recruiting
Cool storage for donated kidneys
This trial compares storing donated kidneys at 10 degrees Celsius (a cooler temperature) instead of the usual ice storage. It tests if this might help the kidney stay healthier before transplant.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07347769Recruiting
BK virus risk study in kidney transplant patients
This study looks at the type and genetic makeup of BK virus in kidney transplant patients and their donors. It aims to find patients at higher risk for a kidney infection caused by the virus, which could help improve monitoring and treatment.
GrenobleAges 18 years+ - NCT07281118Recruiting
Nerve freezing for pain after double lung transplant
This trial tests a procedure called intercostal cryoanalgesia, which freezes nerves in the chest to reduce pain after a double lung transplant. It may help you feel less pain and use fewer painkillers after surgery.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07141043Recruiting
Bone health study after kidney transplant
This study looks at bone and mineral disorders in people on dialysis, after a kidney transplant, or with bone thinning. It aims to understand how these conditions affect bone health.
IașiAges 20–70 - 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+ - NCT07009548Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
CytoGam for CMV in solid organ transplant recipients
This trial tests whether adding CytoGam (an antibody treatment) to standard antiviral therapy can better treat CMV (a common virus) in people who have received a solid organ transplant. It may help those with high virus levels or a new infection after transplant.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18–75 - NCT06701825RecruitingPhase 4
Genetic testing before tacrolimus in kidney transplant
This study tests whether doing a simple genetic test before starting the anti-rejection drug tacrolimus can lead to better dosing and outcomes in kidney transplant patients. It also looks at whether this approach is cost-effective.
Madrid, MadridAges Any age - NCT06409819RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Phage therapy for recurrent UTIs in kidney transplant patients
This trial tests a phage (virus that kills bacteria) treatment for women who have had a kidney transplant and keep getting urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by E. coli bacteria. It aims to see if this therapy can help prevent future infections.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06599658RecruitingPhase 2
COVID-19 booster and flu vaccine timing for people with weak immune systems
This study tests the best timing for a COVID-19 booster and flu shot in people with weakened immune systems, such as organ transplant recipients, people living with HIV, or those with certain autoimmune conditions. It aims to help patients get better protection from both vaccines.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06494033Recruiting
CMV prevention after lung transplant based on immune status
This trial tests whether using a blood test that measures your immune system's ability to fight CMV (a common virus) can guide when to stop anti-CMV drugs after a lung transplant, aiming to prevent the virus from causing disease.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–75 - NCT06262776Recruiting
Shingles vaccine safety study for transplant recipients
This trial tests whether the shingles vaccine (RZV) is safe and works well for organ transplant recipients and their household members. It also includes people on dialysis or certain immunosuppressants.
Adelaide, South AustraliaAges 18 years+ - NCT06235892RecruitingPhase 3
Lowering Tacrolimus for Low-Risk Kidney Transplant Patients

NantesAges 18 years+ - NCT06162494Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Shingles vaccine study for young adult transplant recipients
This study tests the shingles vaccine in young adults who have had a solid organ transplant (like a kidney or liver) more than a year ago. The goal is to see if the vaccine works well and is safe for people on stable anti-rejection medicines.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 19–40 - NCT05955924RecruitingPhase 3
Nicotinamide to prevent skin cancer after organ transplant
This trial tests nicotinamide (a vitamin-like medicine) to help prevent new keratinocyte skin cancers in people who have had a kidney, liver, heart, or lung transplant. It may lower the chance of developing new skin tumors while you continue your usual transplant anti-rejection medicines.

- Are there clinical trials for transplant recipient?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 170 recruiting transplant recipient 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 transplant recipient 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 transplant recipient 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.
