London, Greater LondonAges 18–80 - NCT03868592Recruiting
Weight loss study in people with very high body weight
This trial looks at how to support long-term weight loss and improve how your body handles fat breakdown. It may help people who have severe obesity after bariatric (weight-loss) surgery, but it has several health and lifestyle limits.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–65 - NCT06580002RecruitingPhase 2
Can Riluzole Help with Chemo Brain? A Pilot Study
This study tests if a medicine called riluzole (currently used for ALS) can help with 'chemo brain' – memory and thinking problems after cancer treatment. It is for people who feel their mental sharpness has declined after breast cancer therapy, certain chemotherapies, or brain radiation.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04068480Recruiting
Robotic magnetic capsule to check the small bowel
This trial tests a capsule camera that doctors can steer using magnets to look at the small intestine. It may help patients who need small-bowel endoscopy when a standard approach isn’t enough, but several safety checks are required.
Székesfehérvár, --None---Ages 18 years+ - NCT04114136RecruitingPhase 2
Study tests pembrolizumab or nivolumab plus a diabetes-like drug
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding a metabolic (diabetes-related) medicine to an immune therapy (pembrolizumab or nivolumab) can better control certain solid tumors. It may help people whose standard treatment would usually be pembrolizumab or nivolumab alone.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04140578RecruitingPhase 4
Antibiotic prevention for certain liver disease patients
This trial tests whether taking preventive antibiotics can help people with certain liver conditions avoid infections after an endoscopy-related procedure. It may reduce infection risk, but it also requires that you have no signs of infection and haven’t recently taken antibiotics.
TaipeiAges 20–85 - NCT04147078RecruitingPhase 1
Personalized immune vaccine after surgery for certain cancers
This Phase 1 study tests a personalized vaccine made for you to help your immune system after you’ve had surgery or ablation for certain cancers. It’s mainly done to check safety and see how well the vaccine can work at preventing cancer from coming back.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–100 - NCT04214119Recruiting
Capsule test during endoscopy to find early esophageal cancer
This trial studies an “EsophaCap” capsule that can be swallowed during an endoscopy to help detect early esophageal cancer. It may help find cancer earlier and guide next steps, if your results are concerning.
