First seen Feb 02, 2026 · Last updated Apr 28, 2026 · Updated 9 times
Summary
This study tests an experimental treatment for pregnant women whose babies have no amniotic fluid because of severe kidney problems. The treatment involves repeatedly adding sterile fluid into the womb to help the baby's lungs grow enough to survive after birth. The study includes 70 participants who choose either to receive the treatment or to have standard monitoring. Babies who survive will need lifelong kidney dialysis and eventually a kidney transplant.
