Can a Patient's own kidney cells slow kidney disease?
NCT ID NCT05918523
First seen Sep 01, 2026 · Last updated Sep 02, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study follows people with chronic kidney disease who previously received an experimental treatment called REACT, which uses a patient's own kidney cells to try to repair damaged kidneys. Researchers will track participants for years to see if the therapy causes any delayed side effects and how well their kidneys hold up over time. The goal is to understand whether this cell therapy can safely help people with diabetic kidney disease avoid or delay dialysis.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Renal Autologous Cell Therapy (REACT), an experimental cell therapy made from a person's own kidney cells, injected into the kidney
- What this could lead to
- If REACT proves safe and effective over the long term, it could offer a new way to slow chronic kidney disease and delay the need for dialysis.
- What could go wrong
- This is a follow-up study, not a new treatment test, and it involves a small number of participants. The therapy may not show lasting benefits, and there are risks of side effects from the injection or biopsy.
