Egg White Pudding for Low Protein in Kidney Dialysis
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests whether eating a special high-protein egg white pudding every day for 12 weeks can help people on dialysis with low protein levels. It's for adults with chronic kidney disease who are on center-based hemodialysis and have a low blood protein level called albumin.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 or older and have chronic kidney disease (CKD).
- You are on in-center hemodialysis (dialysis at a clinic) for more than 3 months.
- Your albumin level (a protein in your blood) is low — less than 35 g/L. Your doctor can confirm this.
- You cannot be allergic to eggs or to any of the ingredients in the pudding.
- You must not have had a kidney transplant, be pregnant, have cancer, or be receiving chemotherapy.
- You must commit to not starting a new exercise program during the 12-week study.

This study tests whether a homemade nutrition drink can help people on dialysis who are losing muscle or weight (protein-energy wasting). You will take the drink regularly for a few weeks to see if it improves your lab results and energy levels.
This study tests whether eating a higher-potassium diet is safe and helpful for people with early-to-moderate kidney failure who are not yet on dialysis. You may be asked to follow a specific diet plan and have blood tests to monitor potassium and other health markers.
This trial tests if a protein supplement during dialysis sessions can help people on maintenance dialysis maintain or improve their nutrition. It looks for participants who have been on dialysis for at least three months and are not severely malnourished.
This study tests whether a step-by-step low-protein diet can help protect your kidneys if you have advanced chronic kidney disease (stages 4 or 5) or stage 3 that is getting worse quickly. The goal is to see if this diet approach can slow down kidney damage.
This study looks at how replacing high-protein foods affects people with chronic kidney disease. If you join, you will eat a carefully controlled diet to help researchers understand if changing your protein intake can improve your kidney health.
This study tests whether adding pea fiber to your diet can improve health outcomes in people receiving hemodialysis for kidney disease. Researchers want to see if this natural fiber helps reduce harmful substances in your blood and improves your overall well-being.
