New device zaps kidney and liver nerves to tame high blood pressure
NCT ID NCT06907147
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a device that uses radiofrequency energy to disrupt nerve signals in the kidney and liver arteries, aiming to lower blood pressure in people with uncontrolled hypertension. About 175 adults aged 18-80 with high blood pressure despite medication will be enrolled. The main goal is to see if the procedure is safe and reduces blood pressure over time.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Multi-Organ Denervation Gemini System (a device that uses radiofrequency energy to disrupt nerve signals in the kidney and liver arteries)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a new, drug-free way to control high blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart and kidney problems.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early pilot study with only 175 people, so results may not apply to everyone. The procedure involves artery access and carries risks like bleeding or vessel damage.
