Can simple blood tests predict kidney decline in ADPKD?
NCT ID NCT07217158
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study from Mayo Clinic is looking at 100 people with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) to see if certain markers in the blood and urine can predict how fast their kidney disease gets worse. Researchers will measure kidney size and function over time and compare them to levels of specific molecules linked to cell stress and signaling. The goal is to find better ways to track disease progression, not to test a new treatment.
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 lead to better ways to predict how fast kidney disease progresses in people with ADPKD, helping doctors plan care earlier.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not find clear links between the biomarkers and disease progression, and results may not apply to all patients.
