Thyroid hormones in chronic kidney disease
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial studies thyroid hormone levels in people with advanced chronic kidney disease (stage 4). It aims to understand how kidney disease affects thyroid function, which may help improve care and monitoring.

This is a flexible research study for adults with advanced kidney disease. Depending on which part of the study you qualify for, you may test new treatments designed to slow kidney disease, reduce complications, or improve your health while on dialysis or after transplant.
This trial tests whether regulating parathyroid hormone (PTH) can improve bone density in people with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) who are not on dialysis. It may help you if you have stage 4-5 CKD and high PTH levels.
This study checks how an overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism) affects kidney function. It may help doctors understand if treating the thyroid can protect the kidneys.
This trial tests whether taking a thyroid hormone supplement helps people who are on hemodialysis and have borderline-high thyroid lab results (high TSH but normal FT4). It’s studying whether treatment changes thyroid-related outcomes or health while on dialysis.
This study checks thyroid function in people who are on long-term hemodialysis for kidney failure. It aims to see how common thyroid issues are in this group, which could help improve care.
This study is collecting information from people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) to understand how the disease progresses over time. It does not test any new treatments, so you keep your usual care.
