Familial nephrotic syndrome

This Phase 2 study tests a new drug called ADX-038, alone or with another drug (telitacicept), in 30 Chinese adults with kidney diseases caused by an overactive complement system (IgA nephropathy, C3G, or IC-MPGN). The goal is to see if the treatment is safe and can help control …

This Phase 2 study is testing a new drug called ADX-038 in 45 adults with complement-mediated kidney diseases, such as IgA nephropathy and C3G. The drug is an siRNA that targets the complement system, which is overactive in these conditions. Researchers are checking if it is safe…

This study tests a drug called iptacopan in people with a rare kidney disease (IC-MPGN). About 106 adults and teens will receive either iptacopan or a placebo. The main goal is to see if iptacopan reduces protein in the urine and helps preserve kidney function over 18 months.

This study tests a new treatment called QT-219CX, which uses specially engineered immune cells (CAR-T cells) to target and calm the overactive immune system in people with autoimmune diseases like lupus, kidney disease, and scleroderma. The treatment is given as a one-time infusi…

This study looks at the long-term safety and effectiveness of a drug called iptacopan for people with two rare kidney diseases: C3 glomerulopathy and IC-MPGN. About 225 adults who have already completed a previous iptacopan study will take the drug for an extended period. The goa…

This early-phase trial is testing a new type of cell therapy called QT-219C, which uses donor-derived CAR-T cells to target and destroy faulty immune cells in people with severe autoimmune diseases like lupus, nephrotic syndrome, and vasculitis. The study will enroll 15 participa…

This early-stage study is testing a universal donor CAR T-cell therapy that targets two proteins (CD19 and BCMA) on immune cells that drive autoimmune diseases. The goal is to see if it is safe and can help control conditions like lupus, kidney disease, and vasculitis. About 15 p…

This early-phase trial is testing a new type of cell therapy (CAR-NK cells) in 36 children with B-cell-related autoimmune diseases like lupus and certain kidney diseases. The therapy uses specially designed immune cells to target and potentially control the overactive immune syst…

This study tests a drug called daratumumab in 40 people with a rare kidney condition called PGNMID, where abnormal proteins damage the kidneys. Participants receive weekly injections for 8 weeks, then every two weeks for another 8 weeks. The goal is to see if the drug can reduce …

This study compares two types of ultrasound-guided nerve blocks for pain control after open kidney removal surgery. Ninety adults will receive either a rhomboid intercostal sub-serratus plane block or an external oblique intercostal block. Researchers will measure how long it tak…

This study compares two common conservative treatments for De Quervain's tenosynovitis, a painful thumb tendon condition: a static hand-wrist splint versus home-based exercise therapy. Forty adults with acute or subacute pain will be tracked for changes in pain, wrist function, a…

This study tests whether letting a bladder catheter fall out on its own (passive removal) is better than having a nurse pull it out (active removal) after urological surgery. 160 men will be randomly assigned to one method. Researchers will measure satisfaction, pain, and anxiety…

This study helps people with certain kidney diseases (like nephrotic syndrome and FSGS) find clinical trials that match their specific disease profile. Researchers analyze participants' molecular data to recommend targeted therapies in ongoing trials. The goal is to improve treat…

This study is investigating whether certain autoantibodies, especially those targeting a protein called nephrin, play a role in nephrotic syndrome, a kidney condition that causes swelling and protein loss in urine. Researchers will analyze blood and kidney tissue from 50 children…

This study is for older adults, including those in the hospital or with low priority care needs. Researchers want to see if newer methods, like body scans and blood tests, can better detect malnutrition and kidney problems than current standard tests. The goal is to make diagnosi…

This study tests a new method to help patients understand complex spine or prostate surgeries before they agree to them. Instead of just reading a form, patients watch multimedia content and answer questions to check their understanding. The goal is to see if this approach makes …

This study looks at how well three AI models—ChatGPT, Gemini, and Deepseek—can diagnose and suggest treatments for urology diseases. Researchers will use 800 past patient records from four hospitals to check the AI's accuracy and usefulness. The goal is to understand if AI can he…

This study collects medical and genetic information from people with SPLIS, a rare condition caused by a faulty enzyme. Researchers will track survival and when kidney problems start. No treatments are given, but the registry may help future research.
