Abandoned study: could a drug fix Chemo-Related kidney injury?
NCT ID NCT05702996
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study planned to test the drug eculizumab in cancer patients who developed kidney damage from the chemotherapy drug gemcitabine. The goal was to see if eculizumab could help the kidneys recover. However, the trial was withdrawn before any patients were enrolled, so no data was collected.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
eculizumab
What this could lead to
If it had worked, this could have pointed toward a treatment for a rare chemotherapy side effect that damages kidneys.
What could go wrong
The trial was withdrawn before enrolling anyone, so no results exist. It was a small pilot study, and eculizumab is expensive with infection risks.
