Biomarkers before and after kidney transplant
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study will collect blood samples from people having a kidney biopsy or a kidney transplant to look for biomarkers (biological signs) that can give doctors more information about kidney health. Participating may help doctors better understand and treat kidney disease in the future.

This study collects blood and leftover donor samples from kidney transplant recipients who need a biopsy. The goal is to improve monitoring after transplant.
This study looks at how the body’s immune system responds when a kidney transplant shows signs of rejection, using a planned kidney biopsy. It may help doctors better understand what drives rejection and how to improve care in the future.
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 is for people with a kidney transplant who are in the hospital for a biopsy because their doctor suspects rejection. Researchers want to see if a simple blood or urine test can detect rejection, which might make future biopsies less necessary.
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 trial studies kidney biopsies in people who had a liver transplant and then developed new signs of kidney damage. The goal is to better understand what’s causing the problem and how to guide next steps.
