Kidney biopsy study for patients at Westmead Hospital
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study looks at kidney biopsy samples to learn more about kidney disease and improve care. It may help doctors better understand and treat kidney problems in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have had a kidney biopsy since the year 2000.
- Your biopsy sample must have been sent to Westmead Hospital for testing.
- Doctors must have information about your kidney function from a blood test (serum creatinine or eGFR).

This study looks at gene activity inside kidney tissue to better understand how transplanted kidneys work. Researchers will collect blood, urine, stool, and tiny pieces of kidney tissue over time to see what happens after a transplant.
This study looks at the genes of people who have had or will have a kidney transplant. It aims to learn how genetic information might help improve transplant care over time. Participants will give blood, urine, stool, and possibly kidney tissue samples for research.
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.
This trial studies kidney biopsy samples to learn how certain kidney cells repair damage. It may help find new treatments for kidney diseases.
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.
