Kidney and pancreas biopsy participants needed for a research bank
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study collects and stores biological samples from people (including children) who are already getting a kidney and/or pancreas biopsy at the University of Michigan. It helps researchers better understand kidney and pancreas diseases, and participation depends on giving informed consent.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for a kidney and/or pancreas biopsy at the University of Michigan
- You are willing to provide consent for the biopsy and related study participation
- You are able to follow the study consent process

This study collects health information and biological samples to better understand kidney disease and support future kidney research. It may help your care indirectly by improving how kidney conditions are recognized and studied.
This is a long-term study that watches children and young adults with chronic kidney disease to understand how the illness changes and to improve care. You may be asked to complete regular visits and questionnaires, and your kidney function will be tracked over time.
This trial collects and studies kidney tissue samples to better understand what drives kidney problems linked to autoimmune, inflammation, and diabetes. Your participation may help researchers develop better ways to diagnose and treat these conditions.
This study builds a kidney tissue “library” to help researchers analyze kidney disease in newer ways. It may help by improving how glomerular (kidney filter) diseases are understood over time, using samples from people who already had a biopsy.
This study aims to learn more about diabetic nephropathy (kidney problems caused by diabetes) using planned kidney tissue samples. You may benefit by helping researchers understand the disease better, and you may be eligible if you already have a medically needed kidney biopsy scheduled.
This study collects and stores kidney biopsy samples (and related information) to help researchers understand kidney diseases. You may be able to join if you are already scheduled for a kidney biopsy and can consent.
