CAR T-cell therapy for hard-to-treat B-cell cancers
This Phase 1 study tests lab-made immune cells (CAR T-cells) that target CD19, CD20, and/or CD22 in people with certain relapsed or refractory B-cell cancers. It may help by attacking cancer cells that still carry these targets, but eligibility is very specific and includes prior treatments and health/lab requirements.
Columbus, OhioAges 2 years+ - NCT05610501Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided biopsy for pelvic masses
This study looks at how well an ultrasound-guided needle biopsy (Tru-Cut) can safely collect tissue samples from pelvic masses. It may help doctors confirm diagnoses and guide treatment by improving how biopsies are done in real-world care.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT05710380Recruiting
MRI scans to guide biopsy for prostate cancer diagnosis
This study tests whether special MRI “risk maps” can help doctors better identify suspicious areas in the prostate during diagnosis. If you’re having an MRI followed by an MRI-guided biopsy, this may help improve how the biopsy targets areas of concern.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05726981Recruiting
Ultrasound check of benign thyroid nodules 3 years after ablation
This study follows people with a benign (non-cancer) thyroid nodule about 3 years after they had a heat-based ablation, using ultrasound and a sample for cytology (cell/tissue review). It aims to see what the nodule looks like long-term and how well these checks track changes.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT05728216Recruiting
Using a special eye-scan to study kidney biopsy samples
This study tests whether a noninvasive “eye-scan” during a kidney biopsy can help doctors tell the difference between acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease. If it works, it may improve how kidney problems are diagnosed in routine practice.
Chalon-sur-Saône, Saône-et-LoireAges 18 years+ - NCT05744596Recruiting
Biopsy during endoscopy to help stage chronic stomach inflammation
This study looks at whether taking a small tissue sample (biopsy) from a specific spot during an upper stomach camera (endoscopy) improves how doctors classify chronic gastritis. The goal is to help ensure your stomach inflammation is evaluated more accurately over time.
PortoAges 18 years+ - NCT05797415Recruiting
Check sentinel lymph node biopsy for several eye skin cancers
This trial studies whether a “sentinel lymph node biopsy” can better detect cancer spread in people with specific cancers of the eye surface and nearby tissues. It may help doctors find the right next treatment by learning whether lymph nodes are involved.
Roma, RomeAges 18–95 - NCT05857150Recruiting
Study tests exercise effects in adults with obesity
This study looks at how your body responds to exercise if you have obesity. It may help researchers understand which changes happen with exercise and how safe it is for people in your age group.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 20–45 - NCT05885009Recruiting
Liquid biopsy test to guide treatment in metastatic prostate cancer
This study looks at using a simple blood test (liquid biopsy) to read tumor DNA and understand how it could affect treatment decisions. It is for adults with metastatic prostate cancer who are about to start, are receiving, or recently finished treatment.
BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05896839RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Immunotherapy with prednisone and sirolimus for transplant skin cancer
This early-phase study tests whether adding immunotherapy (nivolumab and ipilimumab) to prednisone and sirolimus can control advanced skin cancers in people with kidney transplants. It aims to see how well the treatment works and how safe it is for transplant recipients.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05910801RecruitingPhase 2
Tafasitamab plus lenalidomide and venetoclax for relapsed lymphoma
This Phase 2 trial studies tafasitamab together with lenalidomide and venetoclax in people with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) that has come back or did not respond to prior treatment. It may help shrink the lymphoma and improve disease control when standard options have not worked.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05912569Recruiting
Test a delayed sentinel lymph node biopsy during mastectomy for DCIS
This trial tests whether doing a “sentinel lymph node biopsy” later (a delayed biopsy) can help assess whether cancer has spread to lymph nodes in people having a mastectomy for DCIS. It may help avoid unnecessary aggressive treatment if lymph nodes look normal.
SeoulAges 20–75 - NCT05927818Recruiting
Test a sentinel lymph node biopsy in early ovarian cancer
This trial studies whether taking a sample from the sentinel lymph node during surgery can help with staging early ovarian cancer. It may help doctors find spread to lymph nodes more accurately while limiting unnecessary lymph node removal in some cases.
Istanbul, TurkeyAges 18–90 - NCT05940311Recruiting
Blood test for melanoma with BRAF V600E mutation
This trial studies a very sensitive blood test to detect melanoma-related genetic changes in people with BRAF V600E. It may help track the disease more closely and guide care in advanced or high-risk situations.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT05954845Recruiting
Colonic biopsy study in spinal cord injury gut health
This study looks at how the gut (especially nerve function in the bowel and the gut’s protective lining) works in people with spinal cord injury. It uses planned colonoscopy or rectum/sigmoid exams with small tissue samples to understand whether changes in the gut could contribute to health problems.
NantesAges 18–80 - NCT06022939RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing chemo plus stem cell transplant to chemo alone for AL amyloidosis
This study tests whether adding a stem cell transplant to standard chemotherapy (Dara-VCD) works better than chemotherapy alone for people newly diagnosed with AL amyloidosis. It aims to find the best way to control the disease and improve outcomes.
Goodyear, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06058650Recruiting
Using molecular breast imaging to guide breast biopsies
This study uses molecular breast imaging (MBI) to help guide biopsies for women with breast abnormalities. It has two parts: one for women with past MBI findings that turned out to be benign, and another for women who need a biopsy now based on recent imaging.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06066801Recruiting
Bedside bone biopsy for diabetic foot infection
This trial is testing a new way to take a small sample of infected bone from the foot of people with diabetes. It aims to see if a bedside biopsy is safe and accurate for diagnosing bone infection, so you may avoid more invasive procedures.
