AI predicts prostate cancer spread from biopsy
This study uses an artificial intelligence (AI) system to look at prostate biopsy samples and predict if the cancer has spread to the lymph nodes. It may help doctors decide on the best treatment without needing extra surgery or scans.
Changsha, HunanAges 18–90 - NCT07235865Recruiting
Blood test to find and monitor heart masses
This trial uses a blood test (liquid biopsy) to help find and monitor heart masses without surgery. It may help diagnose what the mass is and how it changes over time.
Milan, ItaliaAges 12 years+ - NCT06866041Recruiting
Prostate cancer markers and imaging for low-risk patients on active surveillance
This trial looks for new markers and advanced scans to better predict which low-risk prostate cancers might grow. If you have low-risk prostate cancer and are managing it with active surveillance, researchers want to see if PSMA-PET scans and tissue markers can give earlier warning of progression.
Milan, ItalyAges 45–80 - NCT05585684Recruiting
Blood test to guide next cancer treatment choices
This study checks whether a blood test can find tumor genetic changes (called “plasma genomic profiling”) to help choose the best next treatment. It may help your care team decide therapy after your cancer progresses or seems likely to progress soon.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06867588Recruiting
Adding PSMA PET to MRI for prostate cancer detection
This study is testing whether a special scan called a PSMA PET can help find significant prostate cancer in men who are already scheduled for an MRI-guided biopsy. It aims to see if combining the two scans gives a better picture of which prostate areas need to be biopsied.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT06574620Recruiting
Studying tumor DNA and proteins in pancreatic cancer
This study is looking at genetic material and proteins from pancreatic tumors to understand how the cancer responds to treatment. It aims to help doctors choose the best therapies for patients with certain types of pancreatic cancer that can be removed surgically or that have not spread to other organs.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07048405Recruiting
Does Cold Boost Brown Fat in Healthy People?
This study tests whether brief, repeated exposure to cold can increase your body's 'brown fat,' a type of fat that burns energy and may help with metabolism. Healthy volunteers will undergo controlled cooling sessions and imaging scans to measure changes in their brown fat activity.
EdinburghAges 18–40 - NCT06748690Recruiting
Comparing biopsy methods for stomach tumors
This trial compares two ways to take a tissue sample from stomach tumors before surgery to see which works better. The results may help doctors choose the best method for patients.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06980077RecruitingPhase 2
Ivonescimab for advanced thymic carcinoma
This trial tests a new drug called ivonescimab for thymic carcinoma that has come back or isn't responding to other treatments. It aims to see if this drug can shrink the cancer and help you feel better.
Davis, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07437586RecruitingPhase 2
Copper-peptide gel for healing acute skin wounds
