Recruiting studies
- NCT05546138Recruiting
Study for early diabetic nerve damage in people with diabetes
This trial looks for and studies early nerve problems in the feet or legs that can happen with diabetes, before nerve damage is clearly diagnosed. It may help doctors better predict who is at risk and understand early changes.
AalborgAges 18–60 - NCT05549713Recruiting
Upper eyelid surgery to improve early vision quality
This study looks at whether upper blepharoplasty (surgery to remove excess upper eyelid skin) improves how clearly you see soon after surgery. It’s mainly for people whose extra upper eyelid skin blocks part of their vision and causes eye opening trouble and headaches.
OsijekAges 45–90 - NCT05562791RecruitingPhase 1
Testing PSMA PET/CT scans for metastatic bladder or skin cancer
This Phase 1 study tests how well a PSMA PET/CT scan can find cancer spots in people with metastatic bladder cancer (urothelial cancer) or metastatic melanoma. It may help doctors better see where cancer is and guide next steps.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05567198Recruiting
Testing hormone shots to protect ovaries during lupus chemotherapy
This study looks at whether a monthly/3-month hormone medicine (a “GnRH shot”) can help protect ovaries in people with lupus who are treated with cyclophosphamide. It also compares this to lupus patients who do not receive the ovarian-protecting shot, using questionnaires to track outcomes.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT05588154Recruiting
Donate blood and other samples to study blood cancers
This study asks healthy adults to provide blood, bone marrow (if needed), skin, saliva, and stool samples. Scientists use these samples to compare patterns related to myeloid (bone-marrow) blood cancers, which may help future research and tests.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT05588583Recruiting
Tracking drainage from chronic leg or foot ulcers with a dressing
This study follows how much fluid (drainage) a chronic ulcer produces over time using a dressing called Mepilex Up. It may help clinicians better understand how this dressing manages “exuding” ulcers on the leg or foot.
Castro Valley, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05608317Recruiting
Track healing of draining leg ulcers with a foam dressing
This study follows how a non-bordered foam dressing helps chronic leg ulcers that leak fluid (exuding). It mainly aims to see how the wound changes over time, and whether the dressing is comfortable and effective along with standard care.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05620290RecruitingPhase 1
MR-guided ultrasound plus radiation to help skin cancer respond
This Phase 1 study tests a new way to make radiation work better using MRI-guided focused ultrasound. It focuses on improving treatment for malignant melanoma and other skin cancers, while checking safety and how patients experience treatment.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05639933RecruitingPhase 2
Topical cream for EGFR inhibitor skin rash in cancer patients
This Phase 2 study tests a topical cream (HT-001) to treat skin rashes caused by EGFR inhibitors. It aims to see whether the cream is safe and can reduce rash symptoms and discomfort.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05649683Recruiting
Blood immune testing to predict melanoma response to immunotherapy
This study checks how your immune system behaves (through an immune testing process) to see if it can predict how well advanced melanoma will respond to checkpoint inhibitor treatment. It may help doctors choose the right treatment sooner, without guessing.
Nice, Alpes-maritimesAges 18 years+ - NCT05655312RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Targeted radiation melanoma treatment with or without nivolumab
This early-stage study tests whether a targeted radioactive drug can shrink advanced melanoma, either alone or along with nivolumab (an immune-activating medicine). You may be eligible if your melanoma shows a specific target on scan imaging and has progressed despite prior melanoma treatments.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18–90 - NCT05702398RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Vitamin A and niacinamide for high-risk skin cancer
This early trial tests whether adding vitamin A and niacinamide (a form of vitamin B3) can help people with a history of certain skin cancers reduce new disease. It is designed for adults with specific prior skin cancer or skin lesion treatment patterns.
Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT05704647RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab plus relatlimab for melanoma in the brain
This Phase 2 study tests whether nivolumab plus relatlimab can shrink or control melanoma that has spread to the brain. It may help by boosting the immune system to attack the cancer, including melanoma in brain areas that can’t be treated with prior focused radiation.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05723198RecruitingPhase 3
Baricitinib for severe childhood hair loss from alopecia areata
This trial tests whether baricitinib can improve severe alopecia areata (patchy, autoimmune hair loss) in children and teens. It’s meant for people who have had long-lasting, severe hair loss and have tried other treatments without enough benefit.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 6–17 - NCT05738824Recruiting
Study how inflammatory muscle diseases naturally change over time
This study follows people with suspected or confirmed inflammatory muscle disease (and sometimes healthy adults) to better understand how the condition progresses and what changes over time. It may help researchers identify patterns that could guide future treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–120 - NCT05740033Recruiting
Closing the radial forearm donor site after mouth surgery
This study looks at how best to close the skin area on the forearm after surgeons take tissue to rebuild part of the mouth. If you need a radial forearm tissue reconstruction, you may be asked about outcomes afterward using English questionnaires.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05747937Recruiting
Tracking nerve changes in people with ALS
This study follows people with ALS over time to learn how the body’s automatic nerves and nerve sensing (how you feel touch and pain) change. It may help researchers understand ALS better and guide future care.
Telese Terme, BeneventoAges 18 years+ - NCT05748015Recruiting
Checking how the nervous system is affected in multiple sclerosis
This study looks at signs of how your automatic “control” nerves (the autonomic nervous system) may be affected in people with multiple sclerosis. It may help researchers better understand different types of MS and how to recognize nervous-system involvement.
Telese Terme, BeneventoAges 18 years+ - NCT05759780Recruiting
Check how an eye probe measures tissue softness
This study uses a special eye/skin/gum imaging test to measure how tissues behave. It may help researchers improve noninvasive ways to understand eye and tissue health, and in some parts of the study, mild keratoconus.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–75 - NCT05779423RecruitingPhase 2
Freezing tumor plus two immunotherapies for advanced melanoma
This trial tests whether combining a local treatment that freezes a tumor (cryoablation) with two immune “checkpoint” medicines (ipilimumab and nivolumab) can better control unresectable melanoma. It may help when melanoma has grown after prior immune therapy.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05786716RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Trastuzumab plus pertuzumab for HER2-mutated cancers
This trial tests whether combining trastuzumab and pertuzumab can treat cancers that have HER2 amplification or an activating HER2 mutation. It looks at people ages 12 and older, and may include both children/teens and adults, using the study drug based on their HER2 test results.
BelfastAges 12 years+ - NCT05790330Recruiting
Study brain–skin links in teenagers with eczema
