Home Blood Pressure (BP) Trial
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
The main study will be a two arm 10-month, cross-over randomized controlled trial of 200 participants treated with end-stage-kidney-disease treated with in-center hemodialysis in the Seattle and San Francisco area comparing a strategy of targeting home vs. pre-dialysis systolic blood pressure <140 mmHg to reduce rates of intradialytic hypotension. The target systolic blood pressure of <140 mmHg in both treatment groups will be achieved using an algorithm of dry weight adjustment and anti-hypertensive medication adjustment.

APOL1 Long-term Kidney Transplantation Outcomes Network (APOLLO)
open to all eligible people
The APOLLO study is being done in an attempt to improve outcomes after kidney transplantation and to improve the safety of living kidney donation based upon variation in the apolipoprotein L1 gene (APOL1). Genes control what is inherited from a family, such as eye color or blood type. Variation in APOL1 can cause kidney disease. African Americans, Afro-Caribbeans, Hispanic Blacks, and Africans are more likely to have the APOL1 gene variants that cause kidney disease. APOLLO will test DNA from kidney donors and recipients of kidney transplants for APOL1 to determine effects on kidney transplant-related outcomes.

Sorry, not currently recruiting here
The primary study objective is to evaluate the benefit of the Sirolimus eluting Collagen implant (SeCI; Sirogen), a single dose prophylactic treatment delivered intraoperatively at the time of surgical creation of an arteriovenous fistula for hemodialysis vascular access.
