Sweat patch test for early kidney disease detection
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests a sweat patch that may help find early signs of kidney disease. It's for adults with stable chronic kidney disease who want a new, noninvasive way to check their kidney health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests if matching treatments to your specific kidney disease markers can better protect your kidneys. It looks at how well Finerenone, Dapagliflozin, and Semaglutide work alone or in a sequence.
This study looks at heart imaging scans in people with kidney disease to find early signs of heart problems. Researchers will use special imaging already planned as part of your normal care to see if it can help identify who needs heart treatment.
This study is a simple screening to check for early signs of chronic kidney disease. It aims to find kidney problems in people who are at higher risk due to age or other health conditions.
This trial is developing and checking a new technique to detect early diabetic nephropathy, which means early damage to the kidneys caused by diabetes. It may help people catch kidney problems sooner, so treatment can start earlier.
