Orlando, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05861505RecruitingPhase 3
Treatment for new liver spread from colon cancer recurrence
This Phase 3 trial studies a treatment approach for people whose colorectal cancer has come back in the liver within 12 months and can be treated with local procedures. It aims to see whether the study treatment can improve outcomes compared with standard care for people with a limited number of liver tumors.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT05884723Recruiting
Ketogenic diet before liver surgery for fatty liver
This trial tests whether a ketogenic (very low-carb) diet before liver surgery can reduce fat in the liver. It is aimed at people with colorectal liver metastases who already have fatty liver seen on scans or biopsy.
London, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05923333Recruiting
Breastfed infants of HIV-exposed mothers get a probiotic
This study gives a specific probiotic (from B. infantis) to babies born without HIV to see if it can improve the baby’s early immune health. It focuses on babies who are HIV-exposed because their mother has HIV and plans to exclusively breastfeed for the first 6 months.
Cape TownAges birth–50 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 - NCT05963711Recruiting
Study penis microbiome in partners during vaginal microbiome treatment
This study looks at how the bacteria on a man’s penis may change during a woman’s vaginal microbiome transplant (VMT) for recurrent bacterial vaginosis (BV). You may be asked to follow condom and “decolonization” steps to help the researchers understand what works and why.
JerusalemAges 18 years+ - NCT05966649Recruiting
Synbiotics for preventing preterm birth in higher-risk pregnancies
This trial tests whether taking synbiotics (a mix of “good” probiotics and “food” for them) can help lower the chance of going into labor too early. It’s for pregnant people with certain risk factors for preterm birth, and it compares outcomes while you follow the study plan.
Edegem, AntwerpenAges 18 years+ - NCT05970133Recruiting
Robotic surgery vs laparoscopy for left colon cancer
This trial compares two ways to remove left-sided colon cancer and take the specimen out through the anus (without a large external incision). It may help find which approach is safer and more effective for curing Stage I–III disease.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06006390RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR-T therapy for CEA-positive advanced solid tumors
