Using urine test to detect kidney transplant problems early
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial checks if a new urine test (u DKK3) can find signs of kidney transplant problems earlier than current tests. It looks at your kidney function over the first year after your transplant.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have received a kidney transplant alone (not a combined kidney and pancreas transplant).
- Your kidney function (serum creatinine and eGFR) was checked at 1 week, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after your transplant.
- You have records of those kidney function test results.

This study tests whether a special urine test can detect kidney problems early in people who have had a kidney transplant or who have chronic or acute kidney disease. It requires a first-morning urine sample and regular check-ups at the study hospital.
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.
This study tests a new blood test (called cfDNA) that may help doctors detect early signs of kidney transplant rejection before problems develop. The goal is to help keep your transplanted kidney healthy longer by catching issues early.
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.
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 uses ultrasound of donor kidneys to predict the risk of kidney problems after transplant. It may help doctors better understand transplant outcomes.
