Recruiting studies
- NCT07108855RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Green dye to guide early cancer removal
This trial tests whether a special dye (indocyanine green) given through a vein can help doctors see the exact edges and depth of early-stage esophageal or stomach cancer during a minimally invasive procedure to remove it. If you are scheduled for this procedure, the dye may help the surgeon remove the cancer more precisely.
Groningen, Provincie GroningenAges 18 years+ - NCT07115992Recruiting
Surgery with or without radiation for prostate cancer
This trial compares radical prostatectomy (surgery to remove the prostate) alone versus surgery plus pelvic lymph node removal, with or without additional radiation, for men with intermediate- or high-risk prostate cancer that has not spread. It aims to see which approach is more effective and safe.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT07119424Recruiting
SGLT2 inhibitor study for older adults
This study looks at how a class of diabetes and kidney drugs called SGLT2 inhibitors affect older adults. It aims to understand the benefits for your kidneys and metabolism.
Milan, MilanAges 65 years+ - NCT07183150Recruiting
Lymph node removal range for advanced stomach cancer
This study is looking at how far surgeons should remove lymph nodes during surgery for advanced stomach cancer. It may help doctors decide the best way to remove cancer while reducing side effects.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT05412225RecruitingPhase 1
Pre-surgery radiation, then mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction
This Phase 1 study looks at giving radiation before surgery for people with locally advanced breast cancer, then performing a mastectomy and immediate reconstruction. It aims to see whether this combined approach can shrink the cancer before surgery and safely allow reconstruction afterward.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07317323Recruiting
Norwegian study on spontaneous coronary artery dissection
This trial is for people who have had a spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD), a tear in a heart artery. It aims to learn more about this condition and how to treat it.
BergenAges 18 years+ - NCT07528638Recruiting
Nerve monitoring during breast cancer lymph node surgery
This study tests whether special nerve-monitoring equipment and a specific type of surgical tool can reduce nerve damage during lymph node removal surgery for breast cancer. Researchers want to see if these techniques help preserve arm and shoulder function after surgery.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18–70 - NCT02043691Recruiting
Testing specialized grafts to repair complex aortic problems
This trial studies different custom and modified stent-grafts (tiny metal-reinforced tubes placed inside the aorta) to repair difficult aortic aneurysms and dissections. It aims to see which approach best fits your aortic shape and helps keep blood flowing safely.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT02201589Recruiting
Endovascular repair for certain ascending aorta problems
This trial studies whether a minimally invasive (endovascular) procedure can safely treat specific serious problems of the ascending aorta. It may help people who are too high-risk for standard open-heart surgery, but only if their anatomy fits and certain risks are ruled out.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02306200Recruiting
A study to improve heart and aorta health
This trial looks at ways to improve cardiovascular (heart and blood vessel) health, especially conditions that affect the aorta, such as aneurysms, or vascular problems that may run in families. If you have an aortic-related or other cardiovascular diagnosis (or you’re a healthy comparison participant), you may be invited to take part in this health-improvement program.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges Any age - NCT02323581Recruiting
Stent procedure for large aortic aneurysms with custom grafts
This trial studies a less invasive “through-the-blood-vessel” stent graft procedure for large aneurysms in the main aorta or the aortic arch. It may help reduce the risk of aneurysm rupture while avoiding open surgery for people at higher surgical risk.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT02743832Recruiting
Personalized surgery planning for early mouth cancer
This study helps doctors plan surgery more individually for early-stage oral (mouth) squamous cell carcinoma. It focuses on using tumor features found during evaluation to guide surgical decisions, aiming to improve treatment accuracy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 20–70 - NCT03183115Recruiting
Prevent return of esophagus pre-cancer after endoscopy
This trial looks at a prevention treatment to stop esophagus abnormal growth (pre-cancer or very early cancer) from coming back after successful endoscopic submucosal dissection. It focuses on people whose esophagus lining shows a “speckled” pattern on a special iodine test, which may mean higher risk of recurrence.
Kaohsiung CityAges 20–90 - NCT07422129Recruiting
Aortic wall analysis during heart surgery
This study looks at the structure and strength of the aorta (the main artery from your heart) in patients having surgery to replace part of it or having a heart transplant. The goal is to better understand the aortic wall to improve future treatments.
Pavia, LombardyAges 18 years+ - NCT07438327Recruiting
AI study to improve heart and aorta CT analysis
This trial uses artificial intelligence to better analyze CT scans of the aorta, the large artery that carries blood from your heart. If your CT scan shows the aorta is partly cut off or missing in the images, the AI will help measure the parts that are fully visible.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 22 years+ - NCT07049276Recruiting
Lymph node surgery for melanoma with immunotherapy
This trial tests if a specific type of lymph node surgery, combined with a short course of immunotherapy (medicines that help your immune system fight cancer), works better for melanoma that has spread to nearby lymph nodes. It's for people whose melanoma can be removed and who are healthy enough for treatment.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07519486RecruitingPhase 2
Nutrition support during cancer treatment before surgery
This trial tests whether intensive nutritional support helps patients with advanced esophageal cancer (a type of squamous cell carcinoma) respond better to treatment before surgery. The goal is to improve how well the cancer shrinks and prepare the body for a successful operation.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–80 - NCT07529691Recruiting
Physical Activity and Quality of Life in Fibromuscular Dysplasia
This study asks people with fibromuscular dysplasia (an artery condition) about their physical activity and how they're doing in daily life. The information helps doctors understand how the condition affects people's wellbeing and exercise ability.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18–100 - NCT07546695Recruiting
Axillary lymph node surgery choices for HER2+ and triple-negative breast cancer
This study examines the best surgical approach for removing underarm lymph nodes in patients with HER2-positive or triple-negative breast cancer who have received chemotherapy before surgery and still have cancer in their lymph nodes. The goal is to understand whether removing more lymph nodes improves outcomes for these patients.
BaselAges Any age - NCT07582354Recruiting
Understanding Multiple Myeloma Differences Between Patients
This study collects information and samples from people with multiple myeloma or related blood disorders to understand why the disease affects people differently. Researchers will use this information to develop better, personalized treatment approaches.
Bologna, BoAges 18 years+ - NCT07649330Recruiting
Myofascial Release for Heart Surgery Recovery
This study tests whether a hands-on soft-tissue massage technique can help reduce pain and stiffness in patients recovering from open-heart surgery. The goal is to see if it speeds up healing and improves quality of life after the procedure.
Kaohsiung CityAges 18 years+ - NCT06396806Enrolling by invitation
Sigmoid cancer surgery with or without dye tracing
This trial compares two surgical approaches for sigmoid colon cancer to see if using a special dye to see lymph nodes during surgery leads to better outcomes.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05800743Enrolling by invitation
Stent grafts for high-risk ascending aorta problems
This study tests a new stent graft placed through the groin/back to treat problems in the ascending aorta (and sometimes the arch), usually when open-heart surgery is considered too risky. Doctors will check whether the device is safe and works well over time, including imaging and a long follow-up.
