Acute Kidney Injury clinical trials at UCSF
6 in progress, 5 open to eligible people
ARTEMIS: Ravulizumab to Protect Patients With CKD From CSA-AKI and MAKE
open to eligible people ages 18-90
The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of a single dose of ravulizumab IV compared with placebo in reducing the risk of the clinical consequences of AKI (MAKE) at 90 days in adult participants with CKD who undergo non-emergent cardiac surgery with CPB.

Liberation From Acute Dialysis
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
The goal of the LIBERATE-D clinical trial is to improve outcomes for patients recovering from dialysis-requiring acute kidney injury (AKI-D). The impact of a conservative dialysis strategy compared to standard clinical practice of thrice-weekly dialysis will be examined to help generate knowledge for how to guide delivery of dialysis to facilitate renal recovery.

NEPH-ROSIS (NEPHrology in CirRhOSIS) Pilot Trial: A Trial to Treat Acute Kidney Injury Among Hospitalized Cirrhosis Patients
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
The goal of this pilot, randomized, single-blind clinical trial is to estimate the effect size of a high and low mean arterial pressure (MAP)-target algorithm among cirrhosis patients hospitalized with acute kidney injury. The main aims to answer are: • Does an algorithm that has low (<80 mmHg) and high (≥80) MAP-targets lead to significant differences in mean arterial pressure? • Are there any serious adverse events (e.g., ischemia) in a high blood pressure algorithm as compared to a low blood pressure algorithm? • Are there any differences in the incidence of AKI reversal in the high v. low MAP-target groups? Participants will be: 1) Randomized to a clinical algorithm that will either target a low (<80 mmHg) or high (≥80 mmHg) MAP. 2) Depending on their group, investigators will titrate commonly used medications to a specific MAP target. Researchers will compare the high and low MAP-target groups to see if these algorithms lead to significant changes in MAP, if they have any impact on AKI reversal, and if there are any adverse events in the high MAP-target group.

TIN816 in Sepsis-associated Acute Kidney Injury (SA-AKI)
open to eligible people ages 18-85
The purpose of this Ph2b study is to characterize the dose-response relationship and to evaluate the safety and efficacy of three different single doses of TIN816 in hospitalized adult participants in an intensive care setting with a diagnosis of sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI).

KIDney Injury in Times of COVID-19 (KIDCOV)
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
There is an unmet need to evaluate the impact of sub-clinical/mild COVID19 disease in the outpatient setting on prevalent and incident renal injury, as this data is currently unavailable. To capture the diversity of race/ethnic risk and COVID19 related municipal shelter-in-place guidance, the investigators will enroll COVID19-negative and COVID19-positive samples balanced by race/ethnicity from 3 different states, California, Michigan, and Illinois. Study endpoints will be assayed from urine samples mailed to the study team at 2, 6, and 12 months after their date of PCR test, with no requirement for these individuals to leave their homes to participate.

Allogeneic HB-adMSCs vs Placebo for the Treatment of Acute Kidney Injury
Sorry, not yet accepting patients
This study aims to investigate, through the collection of valid scientific evidence necessary to determine safety and effectiveness, the potential use of Allogeneic Hope Biosciences Adipose-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (HB-adMSCs) to prevent progression of trauma-induced Acute Kidney Injury (AKI).
