KIDNEY TRANSPLANT; COMPLICATIONS

This study tests whether using a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) helps kidney transplant recipients with type 2 diabetes keep their blood sugar in a healthy range. About 80 adults who received a kidney transplant in the past year and use insulin will wear a CGM device. The goal …

This study tests whether giving an extra medicine (CMV immunoglobulin) after standard antiviral treatment can prevent late CMV infection in high-risk kidney and liver transplant recipients. About 80 adults who are at high risk because their donor had CMV but they did not will rec…

This study tests a drug called finerenone in people who have had a kidney transplant. The goal is to see if it can help protect the new kidney and reduce complications. About 100 adults who received a transplant 1 to 10 years ago will take either finerenone or a placebo. The stud…

This study tests if giving donor kidneys a 6-hour warm bath with nutrients (normothermic machine perfusion) before transplant helps them work better. 240 people receiving a kidney from a donor aged 50+ will be randomly assigned to standard cold storage or the extra warm treatment…

This study tests two different approaches to prevent cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease in adults who have received a kidney from a CMV-positive donor but are themselves CMV-negative. One group will take daily antiviral medication for 200 days, while the other will have weekly blood t…

This study tests whether an antibody treatment called CMVIG can prevent CMV infection in kidney transplant patients. Researchers will measure antibody levels in 30 adults who are switching to a new anti-rejection drug. The goal is to see if CMVIG is safe and effective at blocking…

This study is testing a program that helps people with obesity who are waiting for a kidney transplant lose weight. The program includes education on healthy eating and tools to make better lifestyle choices. About 30 adults will take part to see if the program improves their qua…

This study looks at whether a special heart scan (CTCA) can better predict heart attacks and other heart problems in people waiting for a kidney transplant. Heart disease is the leading cause of death after a kidney transplant, and current risk checks aren't good enough. The stud…

This study looks at how often blood vessel problems happen after a kidney transplant and whether a balloon treatment can help. Researchers will follow 60 kidney transplant patients in Denmark to check kidney function and blood pressure. The goal is to find better ways to diagnose…

This study is creating a registry to understand how the immune system responds to BK virus in kidney transplant recipients. Researchers will track 60 adults who have recently developed BK virus after a kidney transplant. The goal is to learn more about the virus and how it intera…
