This trial tests whether taking a probiotic supplement can slow down the decline of kidney function in people with moderate chronic kidney disease (CKD stages 3 and 4). If you have stable kidney disease and are not already taking probiotics, joining this study could help researchers find a new way to protect your kidneys.
This Phase 3 study tests a keto-like supplement (Ketosteril) to help prevent or slow muscle loss in people with nephrotic syndrome. It may help by improving nutrition when the kidneys are leaking large amounts of protein.
This study looks at how replacing high-protein foods affects people with chronic kidney disease. If you join, you will eat a carefully controlled diet to help researchers understand if changing your protein intake can improve your kidney health.
This study tests if a ketone supplement can reduce protein in urine and protect kidney function in people with chronic kidney disease or polycystic kidney disease. You drink a special supplement and researchers measure how it affects your kidneys.
This trial tests if a protein supplement during dialysis sessions can help people on maintenance dialysis maintain or improve their nutrition. It looks for participants who have been on dialysis for at least three months and are not severely malnourished.
This trial tests a low-protein diet (called PLADO) to help manage chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 3–5. It aims to slow kidney decline and improve nutrition. You may join if your kidney function is stable and your blood sugar and blood pressure are under control.
