APOL1 gene test study for trial volunteers
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study checks if a new genetic test for the APOL1 gene works correctly. It uses samples from people who have already joined another drug trial.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be taking part in a separate drug company clinical trial for kidney disease.
- You have signed the consent form for this genetic testing study.
- A doctor or trial staff will send your blood or tissue sample to the testing lab.
- The sample must be in good condition and the right amount for testing.
- You are not excluded from the main drug trial based on its own rules.

This trial tests an experimental drug (AZD2373) for people with kidney disease caused by APOL1 gene changes. It aims to find the safest and most effective dose to slow kidney damage.
This trial looks at whether certain gene changes (APOL1) affect how well people with a type of kidney disease called nephrotic syndrome respond to treatment. Researchers will review medical records to find patterns that predict remission.
This study looks at genetic markers (genes) related to kidney risk in Black/African American adults. It may help researchers better understand who is at higher risk and how genetics could guide future care.
This trial tests an experimental drug called MZE829 for people with kidney disease linked to the APOL1 gene. It aims to see if the drug can help protect kidney function.
This trial studies whether VX-147 can improve kidney disease caused by an APOL1 gene change, which often leads to protein leaking into the urine. It includes both adults and children and focuses on safety and effectiveness over time.
This trial tests a new treatment called ABO-101 for people with primary hyperoxaluria type 1, a rare disease that causes high oxalate levels in urine. The study aims to see if ABO-101 can lower oxalate and protect kidney function.
