Who’s Looking
The Patients Searching for Xenotransplantation
These patients are often on dialysis and have been on a waitlist for years. They read every headline about pig kidneys and universal organs, and they want to know which programs are studying them and how to be evaluated.
On Health e Match they list their diagnosis, their history and that they are exploring new transplant options, and they meet practices that treat what they listed.
Typical Patient
An adult on dialysis, often for years, who may be unlikely to receive a matching human kidney soon and wants to know whether a study or a new option fits.

Questions
What Practices Ask
We are a transplant center running a xenotransplant study. Is that a fit?
Yes. Investigational therapies are listed with the regulatory status you document. Your study’s rules on recruitment and eligibility still apply.
Can nephrology practices that refer to transplant centers join?
Yes. A practice that treats kidney failure can describe what it offers, and patients exploring transplant options can choose it.
Most interested patients will not be eligible. How do we manage expectations?
Clear eligibility basics on your profile help. You decide whether to swipe back, and messaging opens only when you do.
Can dialysis providers join?
Yes. A practice caring for patients with kidney failure can describe what it offers, and patients exploring transplant options can choose it.

healthematch.com makes introductions between patients and practices in the United States. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, does not recruit for or enroll anyone in clinical research, and does not recommend any particular procedure or provider. A practice listing an investigational therapy remains responsible for its own study’s recruitment and eligibility requirements. Looking for care? See the xenotransplantation page for patients.
