Fort Smith, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT02938611Recruiting
Study to estimate care needs for stage 4 kidney disease
This study aims to find out how common stage 4 kidney disease is in a specific area and how it is being managed. It may help doctors plan better care by improving local estimates and understanding current treatment approaches.
AlèsAges Any age - NCT06863857Recruiting
CT Scan to Check Response to First Kidney Cancer Treatment
This study uses a special CT scan to see how well your first treatment for kidney cancer that has spread is working. It looks at people with clear cell renal cell carcinoma who are starting immunotherapy combined with a targeted drug or two immunotherapy drugs.
Bologna, BOAges 18 years+ - NCT07332949Recruiting
Dialysis and its impact on sexuality
This study looks at how being on dialysis affects your sex life. It uses a questionnaire to understand your experiences and find ways to support you better.

Heart, kidney, and metabolism health study
This study follows people with different stages of heart-kidney-metabolic syndrome to understand what factors affect their health over time. It aims to find better ways to predict and manage the condition.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT07333313Recruiting
Study of oral medicine and probiotics for kidney disease in diabetes
This trial tests if an oral medication that absorbs toxins plus probiotics can reduce inflammation and slow kidney damage in people with diabetes-related kidney disease (DKD). It may help those with mild to severe kidney function loss.
Taipei, TaiwanAges 20 years+ - NCT07326280Recruiting
Cold ischemia robot-assisted partial nephrectomy trial
This trial studies a robot-assisted surgery to remove part of the kidney while keeping the kidney cool to protect it. It may help patients who need this type of kidney surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT07333495Recruiting
Using MRI to check kidney transplant health
This study tests if a special MRI (without dye) can accurately measure how well a transplanted kidney is working. It is for people who have received a kidney transplant or a combined kidney-pancreas transplant, and for living donors.
Shiyan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07329140Recruiting
Robotic-assisted urological surgery outcomes study
This study looks at how well robotic-assisted surgery works for urological conditions. It may help doctors understand the benefits and risks of this type of surgery.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07333066RecruitingPhase 3
Adding chemotherapy when first treatment response is limited
This trial tests whether adding a chemotherapy drug (docetaxel) to your current treatment (apalutamide) can help control prostate cancer that has spread and hasn't responded as well as hoped to apalutamide alone.
BayonneAges 18 years+ - NCT07324798Recruiting
Adaptive Radiation Therapy for Genitourinary Cancers
This trial tests a more precise form of radiation therapy (adaptive radiotherapy) for people with urological cancers. It aims to adjust the radiation beam in real time to better target the tumor and protect healthy tissues, which may lead to fewer side effects.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07326085Recruiting
Pilot test of MiDiálisis app for home dialysis patients

Shorter radiation with a focused boost for high-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests a shorter course of radiation therapy with an extra 'boost' to the most aggressive part of the tumor, combined with hormone therapy, for men with high-risk or locally advanced prostate cancer that has not spread outside the pelvis.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07330362Recruiting
AI to help diagnose kidney disease from biopsy
This trial tests an artificial intelligence system that helps doctors analyze kidney tissue samples. If you have chronic kidney disease and need a biopsy, this study will see if the AI can improve diagnosis.
