Comparing dialysis filters for bone health in kidney patients
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Hormones & metabolism, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests two types of dialysis filters (medium cut-off and high-flux) to see which one better manages mineral and bone problems common in people on hemodialysis. It may help find a way to improve bone health and mineral balance.

This study compares two types of dialysis filters (medium cut-off vs. high-flux) to see if one works better for cleaning your blood. If you are already on regular dialysis, this trial may help find the best option for you.
This study looks at heart and bone health in people on dialysis compared to healthy volunteers. If you are on dialysis for at least 6 months, or if you are healthy with no kidney issues, you may be able to join.
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 trial compares two types of dialysis—expanded hemodialysis and high-volume online hemodiafiltration—to see which removes waste products from the blood better. If you are on standard expanded hemodialysis, joining could help find the best way to clean your blood.
This trial compares two types of dialysis (hemodiafiltration and standard hemodialysis) to see which works better for older adults with kidney failure. You may be eligible if you are over 84, have been on dialysis for at least 3 months, and are generally healthy enough to participate.
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.
