Preventing delayed kidney function after transplant
Treatments studied
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a way to help your new kidney work right away after transplant, by preventing a condition called delayed graft function. It is for people receiving a kidney from a living or deceased donor.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You must be getting a kidney transplant from either a living or deceased donor.
- You cannot be getting a transplant for more than one organ at the same time.
- You must have already started dialysis (no preemptive transplant before dialysis).
- Your surgery must include an arterial line (a tube to monitor blood pressure during the operation).

This study checks if pumping a special fluid through donor kidneys (machine perfusion) helps predict how well the kidney will work after transplant. It's for people getting a kidney from an older donor or one with some health issues.
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 trial tests whether giving a diuretic (a medication that helps flush fluids) during kidney transplant surgery helps a deceased-donor kidney start working sooner after the procedure.
This study looks at ways to help a donated kidney work better after transplant. It is intended for people who are receiving a living-donor kidney transplant due to kidney failure.
This trial tests whether giving albumin (a protein in your blood) after a liver transplant can help prevent or reduce kidney damage. It is for adults receiving their first liver-only transplant from a deceased donor.
