Incremental Dialysis and Diet for Better Life
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial is testing whether a special diet and a supplement (Ketosteril) can help people starting hemodialysis feel better. It aims to improve your quality of life by making dialysis and diet work together.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You are about to start hemodialysis at the Centre Hospitalier Le Mans
- You are willing and able to provide informed consent
- You do not have acute kidney injury (sudden kidney failure)
- You do not have a genetic disease that affects amino acid metabolism

This study tests whether an added dialysis plan can improve health outcomes for adults who are starting hemodialysis (a machine-based form of dialysis). It may help doctors find better ways to support people during their first year of dialysis care.
This trial studies whether starting hemodialysis in a gradual “step-up” way is safe and works well for adults who are newly starting maintenance dialysis for advanced kidney failure. If you qualify, you may be assigned to a specific dialysis start plan and be closely monitored.
This trial tests if a protein supplement during dialysis sessions can help people on maintenance dialysis maintain or improve their nutrition. It looks for participants who have been on dialysis for at least three months and are not severely malnourished.
This trial tests whether receiving extra nutrition during your dialysis sessions can help maintain or build muscle over time. It is for people on long-term hemodialysis who have very low urine output and a well-functioning access point (fistula).
This study tests whether starting dialysis at twice a week, instead of the usual three times, is safe and effective for people who still have some kidney function. If the kidneys still make urine and clear waste, being on dialysis less often may maintain that function longer.
This trial tests whether adding a special blood-filtering device (hemoadsorption) to your regular dialysis treatment can reduce uncomfortable symptoms caused by kidney failure, like fatigue or itching. Researchers will track how you feel over time compared to standard dialysis alone.
