EC-104 eye implant for diabetic macular edema
This early-phase trial tests a new implant (EC-104) that goes inside the eye to treat diabetic macular edema (DME), a condition that causes blurry vision from fluid buildup. The implant slowly releases medicine over time, and the study will see if it is safe and helpful for people with DME.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07338097Enrolling by invitation
Comparing two eye injections for diabetic macular edema
This study tests whether one eye injection (aflibercept) works better than another (bevacizumab) for people with diabetic macular edema. Both are already used for this condition, and the goal is to see which provides better vision improvement.
Multan, Punjab ProvinceAges 30–60 - NCT07295704Recruiting
Micropulse laser for diabetic macular edema
This trial tests a special laser treatment for diabetic macular edema, a swelling in the back of the eye caused by diabetes. It aims to see if the laser can help patients who have not improved with standard treatment.
CairoAges 18 years+ - NCT06942520RecruitingPhase 2
Gene therapy for diabetic macular edema in adults
This trial tests a gene therapy called RGX-314 for people with diabetic macular edema that affects the center of the vision. If you have had previous treatment and still have swelling, this study may be an option.
Reno, NevadaAges 25–89 - NCT07038967Recruiting
Cataract surgery and diabetic macular edema progression
This trial studies how diabetic macular edema (swelling in the center of the retina) might change after cataract surgery. It may help doctors understand if surgery is safe for people with this condition.
CairoAges 18 years+ - NCT06153277Recruiting
Does swelling affect TENS treatment after knee replacement?
This trial studies how swelling (edema) in the knee after replacement surgery might change the way a TENS machine works. TENS is a device that uses mild electrical pulses to help with pain. The results could help doctors set the right TENS level for each patient.
KaramanAges 40 years+ - NCT04225611RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Drug-delivering contact lens for recurrent macular swelling
This study tests a special contact lens that slowly delivers anti-inflammatory/steroid medicine to the back of the eye. It aims to treat cystoid macular edema that keeps coming back and may improve vision for people who respond to steroid treatment.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–85 - NCT04307615Recruiting
Oxygen versus CPAP during emergency lung fluid episodes
This trial tests whether regular oxygen or CPAP (a breathing-support machine) works better for people who have swimming-induced pulmonary edema, a sudden buildup of fluid in the lungs after swimming. It may help doctors choose the safest and most effective breathing treatment in an emergency.
FalunAges 18 years+ - NCT05142800Recruiting
Screening for Lymphedema in Breast Cancer Targeted Therapy
This study is looking at whether targeted therapy for breast cancer changes the risk of arm swelling (lymphedema). It is a screening trial that uses a machine to measure arm size and check for any swelling early on.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–80 - NCT05049889Recruiting
Diver screening to spot risk for lung fluid after diving
This study checks whether certain personal factors can predict who may get “immersion pulmonary edema,” a condition where fluid builds up in the lungs after water exposure and diving. If you’re a diver, your results may help tailor safety steps and reduce risk.
ToulonAges 18–60 - NCT05226247Recruiting
Check whether careful weaning prevents lung fluid buildup
This study looks at people on a breathing machine for more than 48 hours who are starting a “spontaneous breathing trial,” a test used to see if they can breathe on their own. It focuses on those at higher risk of “weaning-induced pulmonary edema,” meaning fluid can collect in the lungs during the weaning process.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT05276219RecruitingPhase 4
Treatment to relieve sudden lung fluid congestion
This Phase 4 trial tests an “optimized” approach to quickly improve breathing when fluid buildup in the lungs causes sudden shortness of breath. It may help people feel better faster and safely manage lung congestion while doctors monitor blood pressure and urine output.
Copenhagen, CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT05505500Recruiting
Parent and patient interviews for childhood kidney swelling
This study uses interviews to understand how swelling from nephrotic syndrome affects daily life for children and their caregivers. It may help researchers design better care by capturing the patient and parent perspective.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 2 years+ - NCT05622461Recruiting
Recovery support program for children after traumatic brain injury
This trial supports families during the early weeks after a child’s brain injury and hospital stay. It aims to help caregivers and children move toward recovery with better support after discharge.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05636579RecruitingPhase 1
Testing safety of multiple EO2002 eye drops for corneal swelling
This Phase 1 study tests whether EO2002 eye drops are safe and well tolerated in people with painful corneal swelling caused by the cornea’s inner lining not working well. It focuses on safety first, but your eye symptoms and vision may be monitored to see how you respond.
Mexico City, Mexico CityAges 18 years+ - NCT05989139Recruiting
Oxygen mask vs. breathing machine for sudden fluid in the lungs
This trial compares two ways to help people who have a sudden buildup of fluid in the lungs (acute pulmonary edema) breathe easier. One uses a simple oxygen mask, the other uses a machine that pushes air into your lungs. The results may help doctors choose the best treatment for you.
RomaAges 18 years+ - NCT06451887Recruiting
Predicting brain swelling after stroke treatment
This study looks at how to predict dangerous brain swelling after endovascular treatment for large artery stroke. It uses CT scans to identify patients at risk, which could help doctors monitor and treat them more closely.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–80 - NCT06595355RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of eye injections with or without curcumin for diabetic eye swelling
This trial tests whether adding oral curcumin (a natural supplement) to standard eye injections (bevacizumab) improves treatment for diabetic macular edema, a swelling in the back of the eye that can affect vision.
