The PRO-FUTURE study for children with kidney blockage
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how well a certain treatment works for children with a blockage in one kidney (unilateral UPJO). It may help your child avoid more serious kidney problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child has a blockage in only one kidney (unilateral UPJO).
- Your child is between birth and 5 years old.
- Your child has never had surgery on the urinary tract.
- Your child does not have bladder or lower urinary tract problems.
- Your child has not had kidney stones, reflux, or a urinary tract infection.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study checks whether a specific kidney test (a renogram scan) can detect a significant urine blockage early in babies born with ureter-pelvic junction obstruction (a narrow connection between the kidney and ureter). It may help clinicians decide sooner which babies need closer follow-up or treatment.
This study tests whether a special ultrasound scan that measures kidney stiffness can predict how well a child's kidney will work after surgery to fix a ureter blockage. The goal is to help doctors know which children might recover better kidney function after the procedure.
This trial uses a special ultrasound technique to create detailed images of blood flow in the kidneys of children with congenital kidney and urinary tract conditions. It aims to improve how doctors assess blockages without needing radiation.
This study tests a surgery to repair a blockage where the kidney meets the tube to the bladder. It is for children whose affected kidney works at less than 10% of its normal capacity, aiming to improve or preserve function.
This study looks at a special kidney scan called a diuretic renogram. It compares two ways of reading the scan to see which one is better at finding a blockage in the kidney's drainage system. The goal is to improve how doctors diagnose and treat this condition.
This trial studies a fetal cystoscopy procedure to treat severe urinary tract blockage in a baby boy during pregnancy. It aims to see whether the procedure helps improve outcomes, but it requires specific pregnancy conditions and testing beforehand.
