NCT ID NCT04238299

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This study is testing whether a detailed MRI scan can provide better information about chronic kidney disease (CKD) than standard tests. Researchers will scan 486 adults with CKD and track their health over time to see if the MRI can predict which patients will get worse. The goal is to improve monitoring and guide treatment without needing a kidney biopsy.

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 MRI method could help doctors predict kidney disease progression more accurately and choose better treatments without needing a biopsy.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial, so it won't directly improve health. The MRI technique may not prove more useful than current tests.
