New York, New YorkAges 18–70 - NCT05147649Recruiting
Brain scan study in severe sleep apnea without CPAP
This trial uses a specialized brain scan (MRI) to study people with severe obstructive sleep apnea who are not using CPAP. It also compares them with people who do not have sleep apnea to understand how brain function differs.
ReimsAges 18–75 - NCT05704062Recruiting
Breast MRI during chemotherapy to measure treatment response
This study uses breast MRI scans to see whether neoadjuvant (before-surgery) chemotherapy is working. If you qualify, you’ll have MRI scans to help doctors understand how your breast cancer responds to standard treatment.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18 years+ - NCT05656001Recruiting
Brain training to reduce self-harm in teens
This study tests whether two brain-training methods (neurofeedback and biofeedback) can help reduce self-harm in teens. It is only open to youth aged 15–19 who are getting care in Linköping or Norrköping, Sweden, and who have hurt themselves on purpose recently.
LinköpingAges 15–19 - NCT05577247Recruiting
Study of new thinking skills in hard-to-treat depression
This trial looks at how people with treatment-resistant major depression respond when starting a new depression medicine that affects glutamate signaling. It also involves brain scans and thinking/learning tasks, aiming to understand what helps people improve when standard treatments haven’t worked.
ParisAges 18–70 - NCT05427136Recruiting
Study early lung problems after childhood cancer treatment
This study looks for early lung (breathing) problems in children after certain cancer treatments, using lung tests and sometimes MRI scans. It may help doctors spot breathing complications earlier and guide better care.
