Kidney cell study for glomerular and tubular diseases
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial studies kidney biopsy samples to learn how certain kidney cells repair damage. It may help find new treatments for kidney diseases.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are being checked for a kidney disease that affects the filtering units (glomerular disease)
- You are having a kidney biopsy as part of your care
- You have acute kidney injury (sudden kidney damage) from any cause
- You sign a consent form to allow use of your biopsy sample for research
Quick eligibility check

This study collects health information and biological samples to better understand kidney disease and support future kidney research. It may help your care indirectly by improving how kidney conditions are recognized and studied.
This trial collects and studies kidney tissue samples to better understand what drives kidney problems linked to autoimmune, inflammation, and diabetes. Your participation may help researchers develop better ways to diagnose and treat these conditions.
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 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 study collects and studies kidney tissue (from a biopsy or surgery) from people with diabetes-related kidney disease to learn more about the condition. You may be able to help if you've already had a kidney biopsy or certain kidney surgeries.
This study is looking at how genes affect kidney transplant outcomes. It asks you to give extra blood, urine, stool, and kidney tissue samples over time, so researchers can learn more about why some transplants work better than others.
