Bone health study after kidney transplant
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Hormones & metabolism, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at bone and mineral disorders in people on dialysis, after a kidney transplant, or with bone thinning. It aims to understand how these conditions affect bone health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 20 and 70 years old.
- If you are on dialysis, you must have been doing it for at least 12 months.

This study collects information from people getting a liver transplant. It looks at bone health and mineral levels in the body to better understand how they change after transplant.
This study looks at how bone structure and blood-vessel calcification change before and after a kidney transplant. It may help doctors better understand what to monitor for long-term health after transplantation.
This study follows people who recently received a kidney transplant to see how bone strength and blood-vessel calcifications change over time. It may help doctors better understand what to monitor after transplant and how best to protect bone and heart health.
This study looks at how kidney filtering problems (glomerular disorders) may affect bone quality and strength. It may help researchers understand who is at higher risk for weak bones and fractures and why.
This trial looks at a personalized approach to diagnosing and treating bone problems caused by long-term kidney disease. It may help by matching treatment plans to the type of bone turnover found in your tests or biopsy.
This study looks at heart and bone health in people on dialysis compared to healthy volunteers. If you are on dialysis for at least 6 months, or if you are healthy with no kidney issues, you may be able to join.
