Ultrasound device for chronic kidney disease
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests a new hand-held device that uses sound waves (ultrasound) to stimulate the kidneys in people with moderate chronic kidney disease. It aims to see if this safe, non-surgical approach can help improve kidney function and slow the disease's progress.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 65 years old.
- You need chronic kidney disease with a kidney function (eGFR) between 20 and 60 on a standard blood test.
- You must not have heart failure.
- You cannot have had a kidney transplant or have an unusual kidney shape (like horseshoe or single kidney).
- You must not have had an acute kidney injury or a change in kidney disease stage in the last 3 months.
- You must be willing to use birth control during the study.

This study tests a device that gently stimulates a nerve in your ear to see if it can help people with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The device is non-invasive and may improve how your body handles kidney-related issues.
This trial tests an investigational drug called HRS-1780 in people with chronic kidney disease. It aims to see if the drug can help slow kidney decline and is safe to use.
This trial tests a new ultrasound treatment on the kidney arteries to see if it can safely lower blood pressure in people with high blood pressure and chronic kidney disease. It may help avoid more invasive procedures.
This study tests whether a special ultrasound implant (EchoMark) helps a new dialysis fistula mature properly. It involves people with advanced kidney disease who are starting or already on dialysis and are having a fistula created in the upper arm.
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 trial tests whether a small non-surgical device can help keep children with steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome in remission. If it works, it could lower the chance of relapse (kidney flare-ups) and help maintain kidney health.
