All recruiting trials (6)
-
Mapping sensory pain patterns in ADPKD
This project will test whether detailed sensory testing and short questionnaires can identify characteristic pain patterns in people aged 12 and older with ADPKD compared with matched healthy volunteers.
-
Database analysis of patients with Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease
This study is trying to gather and track health information from people with Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease to see how different treatments affect their kidney function and cyst growth over time.
-
Evaluating the role of genetics in kidney disease progression
This study is trying to see how genetics affects the worsening of kidney diseases like acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease in people, especially those with high blood pressure.
-
Hydrochlorothiazide added to tolvaptan to protect kidneys and improve quality of life in ADPKD
This trial tests whether adding low-dose hydrochlorothiazide to adults with ADPKD who are already taking tolaptan slows kidney decline and reduces side effects like excessive urination.
-
Imaging kidney sodium levels using MRI
This study is testing if a special MRI can show differences in sodium levels in the kidneys of people with various kidney diseases to help improve their treatment.
-
Understanding Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease in Children
This study is looking to gather medical information about how Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease affects children to help improve care and resources for families.
