Study of kidney tissue in diabetes-related kidney disease
Treatments studied
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study collects and studies kidney tissue (from a biopsy or surgery) from people with diabetes-related kidney disease to learn more about the condition. You may be able to help if you've already had a kidney biopsy or certain kidney surgeries.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have had a kidney biopsy (to check for diabetic kidney disease), donated a kidney, or had a kidney removed, and leftover non-tumor tissue is available.
- You are able and willing to give permission for the study team to access one of your kidney tissue slides and your medical records.

This trial collects and studies kidney tissue samples to better understand what drives kidney problems linked to autoimmune, inflammation, and diabetes. Your participation may help researchers develop better ways to diagnose and treat these conditions.
This study aims to learn more about diabetic nephropathy (kidney problems caused by diabetes) using planned kidney tissue samples. You may benefit by helping researchers understand the disease better, and you may be eligible if you already have a medically needed kidney biopsy scheduled.
This study looks at how common diabetic kidney damage is in people with type 2 diabetes, and which factors can predict it. If you qualify, you may be asked to have a kidney biopsy to understand what’s happening inside your kidneys.
This study looks at people with type 2 diabetes who have kidney problems and relates their symptoms and lab findings to what is seen on kidney biopsy. It may help doctors better understand what is driving kidney damage in diabetes.
This study is looking at different kidney health patterns in people with diabetes, especially diabetic kidney disease and people who have not developed kidney damage despite long-term diabetes. It may help researchers understand why kidney problems happen—and what protective factors might prevent them.
This trial focuses on improving how kidney damage is diagnosed and how treatment is planned for people with type 2 diabetes and kidney disease. It may help by using detailed medical history and (if done) kidney biopsy results to guide care more accurately.
