This trial checks whether taking screening brain MRI scans in people with stage IV breast cancer helps find brain involvement earlier. It may help guide treatment decisions for those who would otherwise only get brain imaging after symptoms start.
Clearwater, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05045066RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Vitamin D treatment study for Black men with prostate cancer
This early-phase study looks at how vitamin D replacement affects the immune system in Black/African American men with prostate cancer. It’s testing whether bringing vitamin D levels into a healthier range changes immune signals that may matter for cancer health.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05035836RecruitingPhase 2
Test drug after early HER2-positive breast cancer surgery
This trial tests zanidatamab, a type of targeted antibody treatment, in people with early-stage HER2-positive breast cancer to see how well it works and how safe it is. Because it’s a single-arm pilot study, everyone in the study gets the drug, and you’ll likely be asked to undergo standard surgery if appropriate.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04303702Recruiting
Oxytocin during late labor to study childbirth changes
This study looks at how oxytocin, a medication that helps labor contractions, affects the second stage of labor. It may help researchers understand what leads to safer and smoother delivery for first-time mothers.
St Louis, MissouriAges Any age - NCT04975152RecruitingPhase 1
Cemiplimab before surgery for Merkel cell and skin cancers
This early-phase study tests cemiplimab (an immune therapy that helps your immune system attack cancer) given before surgery. It aims to shrink tumors and improve outcomes for people with Merkel cell cancer or certain locally advanced skin squamous cell cancers (CSCC).
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04968808Recruiting
Find best timing for stent procedure in NSTEMI with multiple vessel disease
This trial compares when to do a stent procedure (PCI) in people with NSTEMI who have disease in more than one coronary artery (non-IRA). It may help doctors choose the safest and most effective timing for treatment to improve outcomes.
GwangjuAges 19 years+ - NCT04871412RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery care program for lung or upper GI cancer patients
This trial tests an “integrative” support program around the time of cancer surgery to see if it improves care and outcomes for people having surgery for lung, stomach, or esophagus cancer. It may help by adding extra structured support during the peri-operative (around-surgery) period.
Ottawa, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT04839614Recruiting
Weight-loss surgery plus uterus surgery for certain uterine lining conditions
This trial tests doing weight-loss surgery at the same time as laparoscopic uterus (womb) surgery for people with certain early uterine lining conditions. It may help lower risk from severe obesity while treating the uterine condition.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04852887RecruitingPhase 3
Testing shorter breast radiation after low-risk hormone breast cancer
This Phase 3 trial studies whether “less intense” radiation can work as well as standard radiation for certain early-stage hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative breast cancers that have a low Oncotype DX score. It may help reduce treatment burden while keeping cancer control strong.
