This trial tests a combination of medicines to treat newly diagnosed high-risk mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). It may help shrink the lymphoma and improve outcomes, especially for people whose disease has higher-risk features.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT07715812Recruiting
Comparing e-diary vs paper diary for binge eating
This trial tests whether an electronic diary (app) is as good as a paper diary for tracking binge eating episodes. If you have binge eating disorder and own a smartphone, you might help researchers find better ways to monitor symptoms.
Mason, OhioAges Up to 18 years - NCT06388967Recruiting
Pancreatic cancer detection study
This study is looking at blood or tissue samples from people with pancreatic cancer and from those without it. The goal is to find ways to detect the cancer earlier.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05951777RecruitingPhase 2
Stem cells from your own fat for chronic brain injury
This trial tests whether stem cells taken from your own fat and given through an IV can help people with long-term brain damage from a head injury. It is for adults who have not gotten better with standard treatments.
Houston, TexasAges 18–55 - NCT07218718Recruiting
Cold popsicles for taste changes during prostate cancer chemo
This study tests whether sucking on popsicles during chemotherapy can prevent or reduce taste changes. It is for people with prostate cancer who are receiving a specific type of chemotherapy called taxane for the first time.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03279094RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a half-matched bone marrow transplant for sickle cell
This early-phase study tests whether a “half-matched” donor bone marrow transplant, with special medicines to calm the immune system before transplant, can improve outcomes for people with sickle cell disease. It may help high-risk patients who have frequent complications and don’t have a fully matched donor.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 1–30 - NCT03523975RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing venetoclax, lenalidomide, and rituximab for new mantle cell lymphoma
This early-phase study tests a combination of venetoclax, lenalidomide, and rituximab in people newly diagnosed with mantle cell lymphoma. It aims to control the lymphoma and see how safe and effective this approach is for newly treated patients.
