Kidney health study in young leukemia patients using ultrasound
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study tests whether a special ultrasound technique can detect early kidney damage in children and teens with acute lymphatic leukemia, before standard tests show any problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with acute lymphatic leukemia
- You are between 3 and 17 years old
- You have completed cancer treatment, or you are within the first 50 days of treatment and have not received certain chemotherapy
- You do not have any allergy to the ultrasound contrast agent (SonoVue)
- You do not have a tattoo on the area where the ultrasound will be done
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and you do not have any known kidney problems

This study is testing two new types of scans that use sound and light waves to check the health of your transplanted kidney without needing a needle biopsy. If you are already scheduled for a biopsy, the researchers want to see if these scans can give the same information in a less invasive way.
This study uses a special ultrasound technique to look at tiny blood vessels in the kidneys of people with active urinary sediment or protein in their urine. The goal is to better understand kidney damage, and you may be eligible if you're already scheduled for a kidney biopsy.
This trial uses a special ultrasound technique to create detailed images of blood flow in the kidneys of children with congenital kidney and urinary tract conditions. It aims to improve how doctors assess blockages without needing radiation.
This study uses ultrasound to look at joint and muscle problems in people with blood cancers like leukemia, lymphoma, or multiple myeloma. It aims to better understand and manage these symptoms, which may improve quality of life.
This study tests a new ultrasound technique that can take very detailed pictures of the small blood vessels in a new kidney. It aims to better understand why some transplanted kidneys are slow to start working, which could help doctors monitor transplant recovery.
This study tests whether a special ultrasound scan with contrast can help doctors find kidney cancer that comes back after a procedure called ablation. It may help improve monitoring by comparing the ultrasound results with CT or MRI scans done soon after treatment.
