Recruiting studies
- NCT04523909Recruiting

This trial tests a targeted radiation device (DaRT seeds) to treat certain cancers on the skin, in the mouth, or in superficial soft tissue. It may help when standard treatment (like surgery or regular radiation/chemo) hasn’t worked, isn’t safe, or isn’t wanted.
JerusalemAges 18 years+ - NCT04580134RecruitingPhase 4
Clozapine study for people with a specific schizophrenia or bipolar type
This trial tests whether clozapine works better for people whose illness fits a specific “biotype-1” pattern. It may help reduce ongoing symptoms, but it also requires close safety monitoring.
Hartford, ConnecticutAges 18–60 - NCT04588025Recruiting
MRI study using a special model to measure pancreatic cancer response
This study tests a new, harmless “disposable” setup for MRI scans to measure how pancreatic cancer treatments affect the body. It may help doctors get more accurate MRI measurements, so treatment response can be assessed better.
Columbus, OhioAges 19 years+ - NCT04606030Recruiting
Tested lymph surgery for breast-cancer–related arm swelling
This trial studies a specialized lymph surgery (called VLNT, moving lymph tissue) to treat swelling in an arm caused by breast cancer treatment. It may help reduce lymphedema that doesn’t fully improve with compression and elevation.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–75 - NCT04621279Recruiting
Cooling treatment study for babies with mild brain injury
This study compares different approaches to “cooling” treatment in newborns with mild hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (mild brain injury from not enough oxygen around birth). The goal is to see which approach works best and is safest for babies like yours.
Dallas, TexasAges 8 months+ - NCT04634240Recruiting
Staged heart bypass plus TAVR versus TAVR alone
This study compares doing a staged coronary bypass (revascularization) along with a valve procedure (TAVR) versus doing TAVR and medical treatment alone. It aims to see which approach better helps people with both aortic valve narrowing and coronary artery disease.
Huntsville, AlabamaAges Any age - NCT04638452Recruiting
Study of reactions during routine blood tests in autism
This study looks at how people with autism (and some without autism) react during a routine blood test. Researchers will watch and measure behavior and body responses to better understand distress and comfort during needle procedures.
BordeauxAges 6–65 - NCT04654988RecruitingPhase 4
Immunosuppression study for active myocarditis or inflammatory cardiomyopathy
This Phase 4 study tests whether weakening the immune system (immunosuppression) works better for people with active myocarditis or inflammatory cardiomyopathy. It includes extra heart tests—two heart muscle biopsies and two heart MRI scans—to confirm the diagnosis and guide treatment.
WarsawAges 18–65 - NCT04666454RecruitingPhase 4
Medication trial for broken heart (Takotsubo) syndrome
This trial tests an optimized medication approach for people diagnosed with Takotsubo (“broken heart”) syndrome. It may help clinicians find a safer and more effective treatment plan after this heart condition.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT04701684Recruiting
Fast-stroke treatment workflow study to save minutes to clot removal
This study tests whether a streamlined hospital workflow can reduce the time it takes to reopen blocked blood vessels during very fast stroke treatment. Faster treatment may help more brain tissue be saved by getting endovascular (clot-removal) therapy started sooner.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04729543RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
TCR cell therapy for melanoma and head and neck cancer
This early-phase study tests a lab-made T-cell treatment that targets a specific tumor marker (MC2) in melanoma and head and neck cancers. It aims to see if the treatment can safely shrink tumors and control cancer after standard options have run out.
RotterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT04746183RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Early trial testing treatments for COVID-19 in the first days
This early-stage study tests COVID-19 treatments in people who have recently developed symptoms and who test positive for the virus. It aims to find safer, more effective options for preventing worsening disease, especially in higher-risk groups.
Cape TownAges 18 years+ - NCT04746209RecruitingPhase 2
Blinatumomab after transplant for high-risk B-ALL patients
This trial tests blinatumomab, an immune therapy, in young people with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) after their transplant or when they are getting ready for transplant. The goal is to lower the chance of the leukemia coming back by targeting remaining leukemia cells.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges Up to 25 years - NCT04761120Recruiting
Follow-up study for specific heart valve repair ring implants
This study follows people who are going to get certain types of heart valve repair rings or bands. It aims to track safety and outcomes after the Abbott device is implanted in routine care over follow-up visits.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT04763538Recruiting
Hospital patients who agree to share health information
This study tracks how urology patients are doing and measures outcomes using information from your medical history. It may help doctors improve care, as long as you agree to participate.
BielAges 18 years+ - NCT04772131Recruiting
One-incision sling surgery for stress urine leakage
This trial tests whether a one-incision sling can improve stress urinary incontinence (urine leakage with coughing, sneezing, or physical activity). You may be eligible if you have confirmed stress leakage and are considering surgery after trying other options.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04777760Recruiting
Surfactant treatment for newborn breathing distress
This trial looks at giving a “surfactant” medicine (a substance that helps keep baby lungs open) to newborns who have serious breathing problems soon after birth. It may help babies with neonatal respiratory distress or acute breathing distress, especially if they’re treated in the early time window.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 1 minute–1 day - NCT04793867Recruiting
MRI study of lung differences in cystic fibrosis and bronchiectasis
This study uses MRI scanning to better understand how the lungs differ in people with cystic fibrosis (CF) and in people with non-CF bronchiectasis. The results may help doctors understand disease changes over time and guide future care, especially for children and teens.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 5–100 - NCT04807868Recruiting
Liver fat registry for adults with or at risk for fatty liver
This study builds a research registry (and optional test results follow-up) for adults who either need a routine liver biopsy or may have fatty liver risk based on body weight and other health history. It helps researchers learn more about non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (fatty liver not caused by alcohol) and how it may progress.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04817956RecruitingPhase 2
Precision-medicine treatment for advanced cancer in Norway
This Phase 2 trial tries to match people with advanced cancer to targeted treatments based on their tumor’s genetic results. It may help if standard cancer treatments are no longer working or aren’t available, and if a “target” in the tumor suggests a therapy that could work.
ÅlesundAges 16 years+ - NCT04824144RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Dexmedetomidine for agitation in palliative care delirium
This trial tests whether dexmedetomidine can help calm agitation caused by delirium in adults receiving palliative (comfort-focused) care. It may help reduce restlessness and distress when standard approaches may not be enough.
