Renal tubular transport disease

This study tests a gene therapy called DFT383 in 30 children aged 2 to 5 with nephropathic cystinosis, a rare disease that damages kidneys and other organs. The treatment aims to fix the genetic problem so children may no longer need daily cysteamine medication. Researchers will …

This study aims to see if a home lactate meter and a standard glucose meter give accurate readings compared to lab tests in people with glycogen storage disease types Ia, Ib, and XI. Ten participants will have an 8-hour hospital stay with hourly blood draws and finger-stick tests…

This study follows people with rare inherited forms of kidney stones and chronic kidney disease, such as primary hyperoxaluria, cystinuria, and Dent disease, to learn how these conditions develop over time. Researchers will measure markers of inflammation in blood and urine and t…

This study creates a biobank of blood, urine, and tissue samples from people with rare kidney stone diseases—primary hyperoxaluria, cystinuria, APRT deficiency, and Dent disease—and their family members. By storing these samples, researchers hope to enable future studies that cou…

This study collects medical information from people around the world who have one of four rare hereditary kidney stone diseases: primary hyperoxaluria, Dent disease, cystinuria, or APRT deficiency. By gathering data from many patients, researchers hope to better understand how th…

This study aims to find the specific genes and mutations that cause rare, inherited forms of kidney stone disease. Researchers will analyze DNA from up to 6,000 participants to understand how these genetic changes lead to stones. The goal is to use this knowledge to develop bette…

This study at the University of Michigan is testing whether ultrasound can monitor bone graft healing after tooth extraction, potentially replacing more invasive scans. About 140 adults needing a tooth extraction and bone graft for a future dental implant will have their healing …
