Lenticule Implant for Herpes-Related Cloudy Cornea
This trial implants a small lens-shaped tissue (called a lenticule) into the cornea to help restore its clarity and improve vision in people with vision problems from repeated herpes infections. If you've had ongoing issues with herpes in your eye, this treatment might reduce scarring and help you see better.
PristinaAges 21–46 - NCT05190978Recruiting
Test mesh use for breast reconstruction above the muscle
This study tests whether using surgical mesh can be done safely and works well in breast reconstruction done right away, in front of the chest muscle (pre-pectoral) using tissue expanders. It may help improve how the reconstructed area holds up, but you’d need to meet specific surgical and health requirements.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 22–75 - NCT04954664Recruiting
Bone graft particles to help dental implants fit in missing teeth areas
This study tests a bone-grafting approach (using processed donor bone particles, with or without a growth factor) to help dental implants work when the jaw bone is too narrow. It may help people get implants placed more safely and effectively in areas with missing teeth.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–99 - NCT05101161Recruiting
Neurofeedback delivered through implanted brain stimulation
This study tests a brain “feedback” approach using electrodes already placed as part of standard medical care. It aims to see whether this method is safe and helpful for people undergoing deep brain stimulation after surgery.
Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT05110183Enrolling by invitation
Bionic ear implant surgery for certain inner-ear nerve tumors
This study looks at a special “opto-electrical” cochlear implant for people who need a specific type of tumor-removal surgery near the facial nerve and hearing structures. It may help restore hearing in people whose hearing is already severely reduced and who meet the tumor and hearing-size criteria.
Coral Gables, FloridaAges 18–89 - NCT05073419Recruiting
Test for heart rhythm issues after a heart attack
This trial checks how well a small heart monitor device can detect abnormal heart rhythms after a recent heart attack. It may help doctors catch rhythm problems early, which could improve follow-up care after discharge.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05020574RecruitingPhase 2
Study how the microbiome may affect breast implant infections
This Phase 2 study looks at whether changes in the body’s “microbiome” (the normal germs in and on the body) are linked to infections after breast surgery with implants. It may help doctors better predict and prevent implant infections in people undergoing mastectomy with immediate implant placement.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05044962Recruiting
Study birth control timing in HIV, using blood tests
This study looks at how well HIV treatment (ART) and a hormonal birth control method (DMPA shot or implant) work together, using small blood samples. It may help ensure safer, more effective HIV care and contraception for young women.
Eldoret, KenyaAges 15–24 - NCT04976153RecruitingPhase 3
Stem cell implant to treat fecal urge incontinence
This Phase 3 study tests an implant made from a person’s own muscle-related cells to improve fecal “urge” leakage. It’s for adults whose symptoms haven’t improved enough with usual conservative treatments.
GrazAges 18 years+ - NCT04947462Recruiting
Improved control of prosthetic arms with hand nerve signals
This study tests a new way to connect nerve signals from your amputated arm to a prosthetic hand, which may help you control it more naturally and feel what the hand is touching.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04948749Recruiting
Stenting plus medication to prevent stroke from narrowed brain arteries
This trial tests whether placing a stent in a severely narrowed brain artery, along with aggressive medication, can prevent another stroke better than medication alone. It is for people who had a mild stroke within the last 30 days due to a 70-99% blockage in a major brain artery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT04891289RecruitingPhase 2
Gemcitabine and oxaliplatin with a chemotherapy pump for bile duct cancer
This Phase 2 study tests gemcitabine plus oxaliplatin chemotherapy, and whether adding a chemotherapy pump (with floxuridine and dexamethasone) delivered to the liver improves outcomes. It is for people whose intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma cannot be removed with surgery.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03876054Recruiting
