Testing blood and urine for kidney rejection signs
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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 looks at certain immune cells (B cells) in the blood and kidney to better understand antibody-mediated rejection in kidney transplant patients. It might help doctors find new ways to diagnose or treat this type of rejection.
This study looks at the genes in kidney biopsy tissue from children and young adults who have had a kidney transplant. Researchers want to find genetic markers that could help detect transplant rejection earlier, which might help doctors tailor treatment.
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 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 trial is testing a new blood test (called TreaT-Assay) to help diagnose acute rejection after a kidney transplant. The goal is to catch rejection earlier and more accurately, so you can get the right treatment faster.
