First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks for better ways to monitor kidney transplant recipients for signs of rejection or long-term damage. Researchers will collect blood, urine, and tissue samples from 1000 patients during routine biopsies to find early warning markers. The goal is to replace less sensitive current tests and improve transplant survival without relying on lifelong medications beyond standard care.
