Machine perfusion data may predict kidney transplant outcomes

NCT ID NCT07348874

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study will collect data from 300 kidney transplant patients who receive kidneys from older or higher-risk donors. The kidneys are kept on a machine that pumps cold fluid through them before transplant. Researchers will see if the machine's readings (like flow and pressure) can predict how well the kidney works one year after transplant. This is an observational study, so no new treatment is being tested.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors better predict which donor kidneys will work well after transplant, potentially improving organ allocation.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may not change practice directly, and the findings might not apply to all donor types.
