Diet changes to reduce kidney inflammation in PKD
Part of Genetic & congenital, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether changing what you eat can help reduce inflammation in your kidneys if you have ADPKD (a genetic kidney disease). Researchers will measure a specific protein in your urine to see if diet can slow kidney disease.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This pilot study tests whether a short-term diet can help people with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). You would follow a special diet for one week to see how it affects your health.
This study tests a special medical food (Ren-Nu) to see if it helps with metabolism and kidney health in people with ADPKD. You would follow a dietary program and attend online classes.
This study follows patients with a genetic kidney disease (autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease) who are on dialysis and receive a procedure to block blood flow to their enlarged kidneys. Researchers will track how well the procedure works and how it affects patients over time using imaging scans.
This study tests whether a ketogenic diet can slow the progression of polycystic kidney disease in adults who are at risk for rapid decline. You'll follow a carefully planned low-carb, high-fat diet to see if it helps protect your kidneys.
This study enrolls adults with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) to better understand the disease and its related changes in the body. It may help researchers find improved ways to track the condition and support future treatments.
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.
