Kidney transplant monitoring in children: a new approach
Part of Immune system & allergy, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study is testing a new way to monitor kids who have had a kidney transplant, without using needles as often. The goal is to adjust anti-rejection medicines more precisely for each child, which could help the kidney last longer and reduce side effects.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be under 21 years old when you get the kidney transplant.
- You must be receiving your first kidney transplant (or you may be getting a kidney from a living or deceased donor).
- If you are a woman who could become pregnant, you must have a negative pregnancy test before starting.
- You (and your legal guardian, if you are a minor) must be willing to give written permission and follow the study rules.

This trial is testing whether a simple blood test that looks for donor DNA can help doctors take better care of kidney transplant patients. It may help detect early signs of rejection and guide treatment decisions.
This study looks for small pieces of kidney DNA in the blood of kidney transplant patients. It aims to improve monitoring of transplant health.
This study looks at how genes in the kidney change when the body might be rejecting the transplant. By studying these genes, doctors hope to find better ways to detect kidney rejection early and help keep the kidney healthy longer.
This study looks for pieces of kidney DNA in the blood of people who have a kidney transplant and need a biopsy. The goal is to see if this test can help doctors know if the kidney is being rejected without needing a biopsy.
This study tests a new way to monitor harmful antibodies after a kidney transplant. It may help prevent transplant rejection over time.
This study looks at a new way to monitor your kidney health and improve care after a deceased donor transplant where your kidney was slow to start working. It uses a simple blood test to check how your new kidney is doing and helps your care team coordinate better.
