Study kidney disease immune system activity in dialysis patients
Part of Heart & circulation, Infections, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how the body’s defense systems (immune system and related signals) behave in people with chronic kidney disease. It may help doctors understand what is driving inflammation and related complications in dialysis patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be over 18 years old
- Have chronic kidney disease
- If you are on dialysis, tell the study which type (hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis)
- If you have sudden (acute) kidney problems, you likely cannot join
- If you’re not on dialysis, your kidney function test (eGFR) must be between 15 and 44

This research study looks at kidney diseases caused by the immune system—conditions where your body's defense system mistakenly attacks the kidneys. Researchers will study your medical history, blood, and urine to better understand these diseases and potentially improve treatment.
This study looks at heart and bone health in people on dialysis compared to healthy volunteers. If you are on dialysis for at least 6 months, or if you are healthy with no kidney issues, you may be able to join.
This study follows adults with chronic kidney disease who are not on dialysis. It aims to better understand kidney health and test what care or monitoring might help over time.
This trial tests whether adding a special blood-filtering device (hemoadsorption) to your regular dialysis treatment can reduce uncomfortable symptoms caused by kidney failure, like fatigue or itching. Researchers will track how you feel over time compared to standard dialysis alone.
This study is looking at how immune cells called T-cells work in people with long-term kidney failure. It tests whether these cells can be changed in the lab to help treat the condition.
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.
