This trial tests whether painless magnetic stimulation of the brain (non-surgical) can reduce long-lasting nerve pain after spinal cord injury. It may help people whose spinal cord injury-related pain has been present for at least six months.
AfyonkarahisarAges 20–70 - NCT05650307Recruiting
Heart and metabolic scan study of weight and rehabilitation
This study uses detailed heart scans and information about metabolism (how your body uses energy) to understand how metabolic treatments and heart rehabilitation may affect your health. You may qualify either as someone undergoing bariatric (weight-loss) care or as part of a heart rehabilitation group—or as a healthy comparison group.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05664854Recruiting
Vagus nerve stimulation guided by body imaging
This study uses a painless body scan method (electrical impedance imaging) and a targeted vagus nerve stimulation to see if it helps people with conditions that might respond to this kind of nerve treatment. If you may benefit from vagus nerve stimulation, this trial may help doctors learn whether the approach is effective and safe for you.
London, Greater LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT05650411Recruiting
Test new drug-eluting stent with less blood thinner
This study compares a new type of “drug-eluting” stent (a tiny scaffold that slowly releases medicine) and a single blood-thinner plan versus the usual two-drug blood thinner plan after stent placement in the left main coronary artery. It aims to see if the simpler plan can work while keeping the stent safe.
Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT05661084Recruiting
Non-surgery brain stimulation for dementia thinking and movement
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation device (tES) can improve thinking and movement problems in people with dementia. You (and your caregiver, if needed) will be asked to follow the study plan and attend visits so researchers can measure results and safety.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 55 years+ - NCT05640271RecruitingPhase 2
Tocilizumab for acute chest syndrome in sickle cell
This trial studies tocilizumab (a medicine that calms inflammation) to treat acute chest syndrome in people with sickle cell disease. It may help improve symptoms and recovery by targeting key immune signals involved in this complication.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 12 years+ - NCT05655325Recruiting
Exercise program to improve thinking in older adults with mild memory trouble
This study tests whether a supervised exercise plan can improve executive thinking (like planning and task control) in older adults with mild cognitive impairment. Researchers also look for brain changes using an MRI.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 55 years+ - NCT05595408Recruiting
Tracking tumor DNA to predict relapse after upper kidney cancer surgery
This study checks tumor DNA found in blood and urine to see who is at higher risk of the cancer coming back after surgery. It may help doctors identify “minimal residual disease,” meaning tiny amounts of cancer that can remain after treatment.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05600920RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Long-acting IL-7 drug trial for low CD4 immune cells
This Phase 1/2 study tests a long-acting IL-7 medicine to raise low CD4 immune cells in people with idiopathic CD4 lymphopenia. Because this is a dose-escalation study, the goal is to check safety and see if the treatment affects immune cell levels.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–75 - NCT05600946Recruiting
Study of body differences in creatine transporter deficiency
This study looks at physical and body features in people with creatine transporter deficiency caused by a specific gene change (SLC6A8). It may help doctors better understand the condition and how it shows up, which can improve future care.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–40 - NCT05618353RecruitingPhase 4
Colchicine before surgery to lower heart and inflammation complications
This trial tests whether taking colchicine around the time of surgery can reduce bad events after surgery in people at higher heart risk. It focuses on helping prevent complications related to inflammation after an operation.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05610787Enrolling by invitation
Testing a device that helps move an EXCOR pediatric heart pump
This trial studies an “active driving” system that controls the EXCOR pediatric heart pump. It’s meant for children who need a heart pump as a bridge to heart transplantation, to help the pump work more safely and effectively.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Up to 21 years - NCT05609630RecruitingPhase 3
Testing two medicines for active systemic juvenile arthritis
This Phase 3 trial studies how well upadacitinib (a pill) and tocilizumab (a shot/IV medicine) improve symptoms and inflammation in children with active systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA). It also looks at side effects and how these medicines move through the body.
