Study immune-system disorders in people with primary immune problems
This study looks at what is happening in the immune system for people with an inherited (primary) immune problem. It may help researchers better understand the disease and how it works.
ZurichAges Any age - NCT03458962Recruiting
Whole genome testing for children with an unknown genetic cause
This study uses whole genome sequencing (a complete DNA readout) to look for a genetic reason why a child’s medical symptoms are happening. It’s mainly for children who have had at least one test but still do not have a clear diagnosis, and it may help doctors find the right diagnosis or next steps.
Miami, FloridaAges Up to 21 years - NCT03596476Recruiting
Test for reflux causes after proton pump pills fail
This study checks whether a special test of the esophagus after meals can find the exact reason for ongoing reflux symptoms when proton pump pills (PPIs) don’t help. It may help doctors choose the right next treatment for people whose reflux symptoms keep coming back.
Chambray-lès-ToursAges 18 years+ - NCT03704207Recruiting
Testing a diagnostic workup to guide care for PCD
This study checks whether using “PCD diagnostics” helps clinicians make better care decisions for people being evaluated for PCD. You might be able to join if you’re referred for PCD diagnosis and can complete the study steps.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 1 year+ - NCT03823144Recruiting
Imaging small live tumor details during surgery
This study uses a special camera to look at solid tumors from inside the body during an operation. It tests whether “live” tumor imaging (using a medicine called fluorescein) can be safely performed in people with certain solid cancers.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT03853447Recruiting
Study of inflammation changes from pancreas flare to chronic disease
This trial studies how “inflammation” in the pancreas changes over time—going from a first or repeated attack to long-term (chronic) pancreatitis. It may help doctors understand what drives progression and identify people at higher risk for chronic disease.
Hvidovre, Capital Region DenmarkAges 18–70 - NCT03866213Recruiting
Test a jaundice device for newborns in low-resource settings
This trial checks whether a new device can accurately detect and track yellowing of the skin (newborn jaundice) in hospitals with limited resources. It may help clinicians monitor jaundice and decide on treatments like blue light therapy more reliably.
Houston, TexasAges birth–4 weeks - NCT03872102Recruiting
Brain imaging study to track Parkinson-related disease changes
This study uses brain scans and clinical check-ins to better diagnose and predict how Parkinson-related conditions may progress over time. It may help researchers find markers that explain why symptoms change, and could improve future care.
Dallas, TexasAges Any age - NCT03895541Recruiting
Test MRI/ultrasound to measure heart stiffness in older heart failure
This study checks whether a noninvasive imaging test can measure how stiff (stiffness) your heart muscle is in older people with certain types of heart failure. It may help doctors better diagnose and sort out the type of heart failure using your scan results.
ParisAges 60–80 - NCT07457840Enrolling by invitation
