Treatments studied
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether the medicine empagliflozin is safe and helpful for adults who are on regular hemodialysis and still make a small amount of urine. The goal is to see if it can improve health outcomes while tracking side effects closely.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests whether empagliflozin improves kidney health and the function of the belly’s dialysis membrane in people with end-stage kidney disease who do peritoneal dialysis. It may help by changing how well the peritoneal dialysis system works and how the kidneys perform over time.
This trial tests whether empagliflozin, a medication for heart failure, can help people who also have end-stage kidney disease and are on dialysis. It aims to see if the drug improves heart function in this group.
This trial tests whether a medicine called empagliflozin (used for diabetes and heart failure) can help people with both heart failure (with preserved pumping ability) and end-stage kidney disease who are on dialysis. The study looks at how the drug affects heart function and overall well-being.
This trial tests if empagliflozin, a medicine that helps control blood sugar and protect the kidneys, is safe and effective for people with type 2 diabetes who have very low kidney function (eGFR between 10 and 20). It aims to see if the drug can still benefit the heart and kidneys at this stage.
This trial tests whether empagliflozin, a medication originally for diabetes, can help protect the remaining kidney function in people who have just started peritoneal dialysis. If you started dialysis within the last 3 months and still make some urine, this study may be a good fit.
This trial tests if the drug empagliflozin can improve kidney function in people hospitalized with heart failure who also develop acute kidney injury. It may help protect the kidneys while treating the heart condition.
