Multimorbidity and Sarcopenia Feasibility Study in Chronic Kidney Disease
This study looks at how muscle and fat change in people with kidney disease compared to healthy individuals. We want to understand why muscle loss is common in kidney disease, hoping to find better ways to help people and improve their health.

Safety and Tolerability of Difelikefalin in Adolescents on Haemodialysis With Moderate-to-Severe Pruritus
This study looks at a medicine called difelikefalin for teenagers (12-17) on dialysis who have very itchy skin from kidney disease. It checks if the medicine is safe and how much gets into their blood. We hope to find a new way to help young people with this problem.

Streamlined Denervation With spYral For an Optimized Treatment (SPYRAL SWYFT) in Subjects With Uncontrolled Hypertension
This study looks at a procedure called renal denervation to treat high blood pressure. It aims to see if a simpler way of doing the procedure is just as good, and possibly quicker, than older methods. This could offer a new option for people whose blood pressure is hard to control.

SPYRAL AFFIRM Global Study of RDN With the Symplicity Spyral RDN System in Subjects With Uncontrolled HTN
This study looks at a treatment called renal denervation (RDN) for high blood pressure. It uses a device called Symplicity Spyral to see how well it works and if it's safe in the long term, especially for people whose blood pressure is hard to control.

DYNAMic Renal Assessment: NOvel Methods to Assess KIDNEY Functional Reserve
This study looks for better ways to measure how well kidneys work, especially in early kidney disease. It compares new tests with current methods to see how kidneys respond to stress, like after eating protein, aiming for earlier detection and better understanding of kidney health.

Bleeding Reduction in Acute and Chronic Kidney Patients Having Surgery (BRACKETS) Pilot Trial
This study looks at two medicines, tranexamic acid and desmopressin, to see if they can reduce serious bleeding in people with kidney disease who are having surgery. It's a first step to see if a bigger study should be done.
