How FGF23 Changes in Kidney Disease Stages
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at a substance in your blood called FGF23 that can rise as kidney disease gets worse. Researchers want to see how the level of this substance changes at different stages of CKD.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have chronic kidney disease (CKD) at stage 3a, 3b, 4, or 5.
- You do not have active cancer or have not had cancer treatment in the last 5 years.
- You are not currently in another kidney treatment trial.
- You are not under legal guardianship.
- You are enrolled in or eligible for a social security program like Medicare or Medicaid.

This study looks at FGF19 to see if it can improve chronic kidney disease in people who do not have diabetes. Participants may receive FGF19 (and may need extra testing such as muscle biopsies).
This study looks for new markers in blood or urine that may help explain heart (cardiovascular) risk in people with chronic kidney disease. It may help doctors better predict risk, especially in those not yet on dialysis.
This study looks at older adults with advanced chronic kidney disease (stages 4B and 5) to see if a set of health measures can help predict how long they may live. It aims to guide care and planning for patients and their doctors.
This study looks at a blood hormone called FGF23 and whether it is linked to heart (cardiovascular) problems in people with anemia. It also compares people with anemia who do and do not have chronic kidney disease, which may help researchers understand risk and targets.
This study looks at whether a blood protein called FGF23 is linked to irregular heartbeats in people on long-term hemodialysis (kidney dialysis). It may help doctors better predict heart risks.
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.
