NCT ID NCT01271465

First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated Jun 14, 2026 · Updated 29 times

Summary

This study looked at 24 kidney transplant recipients to see if substances measured in a small piece of the donor kidney could predict how well the organ would work. Researchers tested blood, urine, and biopsy tissue to find risk factors for early organ problems or rejection. The goal was to better understand which donor kidneys are likely to succeed, but this was an observational study, not a treatment.
