Blood test to monitor kidney transplant health
Part of Immune system & allergy, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study is testing a blood test that looks for tiny pieces of the donor's DNA in your blood to check how your new kidney is doing. It may help doctors monitor your transplant and spot problems early, possibly without needing a biopsy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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 well a new blood test works to monitor kidney health after a transplant. It might help doctors catch problems early without needing a biopsy.
This study looks at kidney transplant patients who are getting a kidney biopsy for usual clinical reasons. It tests whether special blood test results (from a sample taken as part of the study) can help spot transplant kidney problems earlier or more accurately.
This study tests a new way to monitor harmful antibodies after a kidney transplant. It may help prevent transplant rejection over time.
This study is looking at how genes affect kidney transplant outcomes. It asks you to give extra blood, urine, stool, and kidney tissue samples over time, so researchers can learn more about why some transplants work better than others.
This study looks at special blood tests to help predict when kidney transplant rejection might happen. If the markers work, they could help doctors catch rejection earlier and adjust treatment sooner.
