Improving kidney graft function during donor kidney surgery
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having a living-donor kidney transplant for kidney failure (end-stage renal disease).
- You should not have severe heart problems.
- You should not have severe liver problems.
- You should not have bleeding/clotting problems (coagulopathy).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests whether giving a diuretic (a medication that helps flush fluids) during kidney transplant surgery helps a deceased-donor kidney start working sooner after the procedure.
This study looks at ways to prevent delayed graft function — when a new kidney is slow to start working after transplant. It is open to adults receiving a kidney from a living or deceased donor, and it may help your new kidney work better sooner.
This trial tests a new liquid treatment (iCM012) that is applied to a donor kidney before transplantation. The goal is to improve how well the kidney works after it is transplanted.
This trial checks whether a special preservation machine (called machine perfusion) can predict how well a donated kidney will work after transplant. Participation helps doctors better match kidneys to patients and improve transplant success.
This trial tests a machine method that keeps a donated kidney working “outside the body” so it may be better repaired before transplant. It is designed for certain first/second kidney transplants using specific donor types and storage methods.
This study looks at whether special care given to brain-dead organ donors before their kidneys are removed helps the kidneys work better after they are transplanted into recipients. It reviews data from transplants done at Strasbourg University Hospital between 2018 and 2023.
