Support program for mothers with trauma and young children
This study offers a structured support program for mothers dealing with trauma symptoms like PTSD, aiming to improve wellbeing and support parenting. It also involves clinicians connected to the Safe Mothers, Safe Children program.

Overnight feeding to improve sleep in ICU heart surgery patients
This trial studies whether planned overnight nutrition (through a feeding tube) can reduce sleep problems and daily body-clock disruption while you’re in the ICU after certain heart surgery. It may help you get more restful sleep and better regular “wake–sleep” timing during recovery.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04749511Recruiting
Digital support to track hip replacement recovery in PROMs
This trial tests whether digital tools can help detect and track how well people recover after hip replacement surgery, compared with usual in-person tracking. It may help faster, clearer monitoring of recovery from the patient’s point of view.
Bologna, ItaliaAges 18–78 - NCT04752761Recruiting
Digital tracking after knee replacement for people with severe knee arthritis
This study checks whether using digital tools (like a phone app or tablet) can better track patient-reported outcomes after knee replacement, compared with usual outpatient follow-up. It may help improve how symptoms and recovery are monitored, which can guide care.
Bologna, ItaliaAges 18–78 - NCT04750876Recruiting
Psychological and physical therapy follow-up after leg amputation
This trial tests whether adding both psychological support and physical therapy check-ins before and after leg amputation improves recovery and rehab planning. It may help patients feel better and regain function during the transition to rehabilitation care.

Testing IBAIP for brain development in very preterm babies
This study looks at whether the IBAIP program can improve neurodevelopment (how the brain grows and works) in babies born very early. Babies are included only if they have a normal early neurological exam after being “corrected for prematurity.”
AngersAges 6 months–7 months - NCT04689152RecruitingPhase 3
Cell treatment via liver artery catheter for alcoholic cirrhosis
This Phase 3 trial tests whether a cell medicine called Cellgram-LC, delivered through a catheter into the liver artery, is safer and works better for people with alcoholic cirrhosis. It may help improve outcomes in people with more advanced liver scarring.
AnsanAges 20–71 - NCT04641416Recruiting
Ultrasound test for people with HeartMate 3 blood pumps
This study checks whether a noninvasive ultrasound-based method can help diagnose what’s going on in people with a HeartMate 3 blood pump. It may help detect important pump-related changes while keeping the process safer for certain high-risk situations.
ViennaAges 18–75 - NCT04611867Recruiting
Test “BetterEveryDay” patient-reported care for pancreatic or bile cancer
This study studies how a patient “reporting” program (called PRO) works for people with advanced pancreatic or bile-tract cancer. It may help teams understand symptoms and needs earlier to improve care and support during treatment.
HerlevAges 18 years+ - NCT04571736Recruiting
Web and video support during thyroid surgery planning
This study tests a pre-surgery video support program and a secure website to help people prepare for thyroid surgery. It may improve understanding and follow-through by collecting your answers before the operation.
Montpellier, HéraultAges 18–75 - NCT04452825Recruiting
Psychotherapy for older adults with cancer distress
This trial studies a new talking-therapy program for people age 70+ who have cancer and feel emotional distress. It may help reduce anxiety and low mood while you’re receiving cancer treatment or followed closely after treatment.
New York, New YorkAges 70 years+ - NCT04428489Enrolling by invitation
Follow-up for low blood counts without MDS
This study follows people with ongoing low blood counts (red cells, white cells, and/or platelets) to better understand their condition when it does not meet criteria for MDS. It may help improve how persistent blood count problems are evaluated over time.
Suzhou, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT04300998Recruiting
CAR-T therapy study for older adults
This study looks at how well CAR-T cell therapy works and how safely it can be given to older adults. It is for people whose cancer or related blood condition has come back or did not respond, and who are receiving a standard (commercial) CAR-T product.
New York, New YorkAges 60 years+ - NCT04343417Enrolling by invitation
Kidney biopsy study that stores samples for research
This study collects and stores kidney biopsy samples (and related information) to help researchers understand kidney diseases. You may be able to join if you are already scheduled for a kidney biopsy and can consent.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18–99 - NCT04068012Recruiting
Test of a decision support tool for children with PARDS
This trial tests a computer “decision support” tool to help the care team manage treatment for children with PARDS who are just starting a breathing machine. It may help clinicians choose care steps and potentially support safer, more effective breathing management during the first days of ventilation.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 1 month–18 years - NCT04064840RecruitingPhase 3
Hormone treatment to improve IVF trigger and FET support
This study tests whether a specific hormone plan can improve outcomes in two parts of fertility treatment: IVF timing (the “trigger”) and hormone support during frozen embryo transfer (FET). It may help some people have better chances for successful embryo implantation and pregnancy.
