Comparing different dialysis membrane types for kidney patients
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study compares three types of dialysis filters to see which works best at removing waste from your blood and improving your health outcomes. If you receive regular hemodialysis at a clinic, this trial may help doctors understand which filter type is most effective for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years old or older
- You receive hemodialysis (blood-cleaning treatment) at an in-center dialysis clinic, not at home
- You have been receiving regular, ongoing hemodialysis for your kidney disease

This study compares two methods for removing waste products from the blood in people who need dialysis. It aims to see whether one method works better or is safer during extra-renal (outside the body) blood purification.
This study compares two dialysis membranes while using a reduced “weaning” plan for the blood thinner heparin during hemodialysis. It aims to see which membrane works better and safely during routine chronic dialysis.
This study compares different types of dialysis to see which removes waste products (uremic toxins) best from the blood. If you have been on dialysis for at least 6 months and use the same filter for a year, this trial may help find a better way to clean your blood.
This trial compares a newer type of dialysis called hemodiafiltration with standard hemodialysis to see if it improves certain health measures in people with end-stage kidney disease. It may help determine which method works better for long-term treatment.
This study compares two advanced dialysis methods to see which one removes waste products from the blood better. If you are already on a type of dialysis called expanded hemodialysis, you might be able to join.
This trial tests a special dialysis filter (Elisio HX) that removes more waste products from the blood. It aims to see if this approach improves health outcomes for people on regular in-center hemodialysis.
