Study for kidney stone patients with an AGXT gene change
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at people age 18+ who have a history of calcium oxalate kidney stones and who have a specific AGXT gene change found on genetic testing. It involves following a controlled diet for five days, which may help researchers understand how diet affects kidney stones in this group.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be at least 18 years old
- Have had calcium oxalate kidney stones in the past
- Have genetic testing that shows you carry one changed copy (heterozygous) of the AGXT gene
- Be willing to follow a controlled diet for 5 days
- Not be pregnant

This study looks at whether a specific gut bacteria called Oxalobacter formigenes can help people who form calcium oxalate kidney stones. You will eat a controlled diet and provide samples to see how your body handles oxalate, a substance that can lead to stones.
This study looks at how the body makes oxalate (a natural substance that can form kidney stones) in people who have had calcium oxalate stones. You will eat a special diet and stop supplements for a short time to help researchers understand stone formation.
This study looks at how much oxalate (a substance in many foods) gets absorbed by the gut in people who form calcium oxalate kidney stones. You will eat a controlled diet and provide urine and blood samples over a few days.
This study looks at how your body handles citrate and oxalate, two substances related to kidney stones. You can join whether you've had kidney stones or not, as long as your citrate and oxalate levels are not too high or too low.
This study looks at how your body absorbs oxalate, a natural chemical that can contribute to calcium kidney stones. If you’ve had calcium stones—especially with high urine oxalate—it may help researchers find ways to reduce future stone risk.
This study compares urine levels of oxalate and citrate in adults who have had calcium kidney stones and adults who have never had stones. It may help researchers understand how these urine chemicals relate to stone risk.
