Penn Produce Prescription and Chronic Kidney Disease Study
NCT06561412 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to examine the feasibility, acceptability, and likely effect of a produce prescription intervention on patient-centered outcomes, health behaviors and health outcomes, among food insecure adults with chronic kidney disease stages 3 - 5. Participants will complete surveys at three timepoints, each three months apart, and complete health measurements at two timepoints 6 months apart. Half of the participants will be randomly assigned to the treatment where they will receive produce prescriptions with amount of the vouchers depending on their reported family size, every two weeks over six months. Researchers will compare the treatment group and the control group to see if there are any improvements in patient-centered outcomes (food and nutrition insecurity, health-related quality of life, depression and anxiety) and clinical outcomes (diet quality, metabolic acidosis, serum albumin, estimated GFR, blood pressure, and HbA1C).

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06561412
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06561412 describes a study currently listed as active not recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 100 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is University of Pennsylvania, which has 1,457 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 2 conditions, with Food Insecurity appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Produce Prescription is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06561412 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Pennsylvania. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
