NCT ID NCT07273877
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is testing a device that uses radiofrequency energy to calm overactive kidney nerves, which can drive high blood pressure. It includes 1,000 people whose blood pressure stays high despite taking three or more medications, or who can't tolerate those drugs. Researchers will track blood pressure changes over time to see if the procedure is safe and effective in real-world settings.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Netrod-RDN renal artery radiofrequency ablation system (a device that uses heat to calm kidney nerves)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a new option for people with hard-to-control high blood pressure, potentially reducing their need for multiple medications.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a controlled trial, so results may be less reliable. The procedure involves risks like damage to the kidney artery or nerve injury.
