Recruiting studies
- NCT04671667RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab vs chemo-radiation after surgery for recurrent head/neck cancer
This trial tests whether pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy drug) works better than the usual chemo plus radiation after surgery for cancer that has come back in the head and neck area. It may help reduce cancer returning or spreading by using your immune system, but eligibility depends on how the cancer came back and your prior treatments.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–79 - NCT04682223Recruiting
Online speech therapy for people with stroke-related aphasia
This study tests whether telerehabilitation (therapy done by video/remote technology) can improve communication after a stroke caused aphasia. It may help you practice speech and understanding skills at home or from a convenient location.
Columbia, South CarolinaAges 21–80 - NCT04690439Recruiting
Light therapy to treat breast cancer–related arm swelling
This trial studies whether a noninvasive light-based treatment (photobiomodulation) can reduce breast cancer–related lymphedema, which is swelling in the arm or chest area due to lymph fluid buildup. If you qualify, you’ll be asked to follow a set treatment and follow-up schedule to see if symptoms improve safely.
Hasselt, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT04693377Recruiting
Freezing tumor treatment plus targeted radiation for painful bone spread
This study tests whether combining a “freezing” procedure (cryoablation) with focused external radiation (SBRT) can reduce pain from bone metastases. It’s for people with certain cancers that have spread to bone and are having significant pain in a specific bone spot.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04695106RecruitingPhase 4
Blood Thinner and Heart Attack Prevention Study
This study tests whether taking dabigatran (a blood thinner) combined with ticagrelor (a blood clot preventer) is safe and effective for patients with irregular heart rhythm (atrial fibrillation) who recently had a heart attack and received a stent. The goal is to prevent future blood clots while minimizing bleeding risks.
Gdansk, Pomeranian VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT04703101RecruitingPhase 1
Short radiation plus chemo for stage II–III rectal cancer
This trial tests a short course of radiation therapy combined with chemotherapy for people with stage II or III rectal cancer. It’s designed to see whether this approach is safe and effective before or around cancer surgery.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04708587Recruiting
Choosing the right anti-platelet duration for advanced kidney disease
This study looks at the best length of anti-platelet medicine (which helps prevent stent clots) after a new type of heart stent. It specifically focuses on people with advanced chronic kidney disease, where bleeding and clot risks can be higher.
SeoulAges 19–84 - NCT04708808Recruiting
Music therapy during ultrasound-guided abortion procedure
This trial tests whether listening to music during an ultrasound-guided vacuum aspiration procedure can help make the procedure more comfortable or less stressful. It focuses on people having first-trimester pregnancy termination under local anesthesia.
Hong Kong, ShatinAges 18 years+ - NCT04712656Recruiting
CPAP treatment for sleep apnea and blood pressure changes
This study tests whether using CPAP (a breathing machine) for obstructive sleep apnea can improve blood pressure and heartbeat timing. You’ll have blood pressure checked at the start and again after 6 months, along with a sleep evaluation to confirm eligibility.
Columbus, OhioAges 30–75 - NCT04725903Recruiting
Proton beam radiation for high-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests proton radiation therapy for people with high-risk prostate cancer. It may help by delivering radiation in a more targeted way, with the goal of controlling the cancer while reducing exposure to nearby healthy tissue.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04728516RecruitingPhase 4
Eradication treatment versus acid pills to prevent GI bleeding
This trial compares a “dual eradication therapy” (to get rid of H. pylori in the stomach) versus usual acid-reducing pills (PPIs) to lower the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding in people with recent heart artery disease treated with a stent. It may help by reducing stomach infection-related bleeding while you continue needed heart medicines.
Bozhou, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT04728841Recruiting
Gene therapy trial for Chinese hemophilia A
This trial tests a one-time gene therapy treatment (GS001) to help people with hemophilia A make more of the clotting factor they lack. If it works and is safe for you, it could improve how well blood clots form over time.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT04740697Recruiting
Complementary therapies to help people stay on tamoxifen
This study looks at whether adding alternative or complementary supports can improve how well people stick with tamoxifen treatment for early hormone-related breast cancer. If it helps adherence, it may help people benefit more reliably from their prescribed therapy.
ToulouseAges 1.5 years+ - NCT04743102Recruiting
Multi-point full-thickness biopsy to confirm complete rectal cancer response
This trial checks whether taking small samples from the full thickness of rectal tissue can accurately confirm that rectal cancer has fully responded to chemotherapy and/or radiation. It may help doctors decide the best next step if no tumor is seen after treatment.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT04761328Recruiting
Study fear of cancer coming back and stopping immunotherapy
This study looks at fear of cancer coming back and how people feel about stopping immunotherapy (cancer treatment that helps the immune system). You may be able to join if you’re an adult with a cancer history that included immunotherapy, and if you can safely participate.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 21 years+ - NCT04767074Recruiting
Non-drug therapy to reduce long-term cough in lung scarring
This study tests a non-medication cough-control program for people who have lung scarring (interstitial lung disease) and a cough lasting more than 8 weeks. It may help you control coughing better without adding new medicines.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 18–85 - NCT04794777RecruitingPhase 3
Tests targeted scans and rescue radiation for returning prostate cancer
This trial studies whether a targeted scan (PSMA PET/CT) can help doctors choose the best “salvage” radiation treatment when prostate cancer comes back by PSA blood tests after surgery. It may help some people avoid under- or over-treating the areas where the cancer is returning.
Gothenburg, GöteborgAges 18 years+ - NCT04796714RecruitingPhase 4
Aspirin and clopidogrel after left heart appendix closure
This trial studies a “double anti-platelet” medicine plan (aspirin plus clopidogrel) after closing the left atrial appendage, a procedure used to reduce stroke risk in some heart rhythm conditions. It aims to find a safer, better medicine strategy for people who cannot take standard blood thinners.
PessacAges 18 years+ - NCT04831385Recruiting
CBT-I sleep therapy to improve blood sugar in older adults
This study tests whether a structured therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) can help improve blood sugar control in older adults with type 2 diabetes. It targets people who have both high blood sugar levels and troublesome insomnia, aiming to see if better sleep improves glycemic measurements.
Hong KongAges 60 years+ - NCT04832620Recruiting
Using MRI-guided planning to improve proton radiation for rare bone tumors
This trial is testing a better way to plan proton radiation using MRI images, aiming to deliver treatment more accurately for chordoma or chondrosarcoma in the spine/sacrum area. You may benefit if the trial’s planning method helps target the tumor while sparing nearby healthy tissue.
Delft, South HollandAges 50 years+ - NCT04842006Recruiting
Personalized treatment plan for rectal cancer before and after surgery
This trial looks at a personalized treatment approach for rectal cancer. It aims to guide the best chemotherapy and (if needed) radiotherapy before and after surgery, based on scans and specific test results.
Helsinki, UusimaaAges 18–100 - NCT04846933Recruiting
Testing extra scans and data to guide ovarian cancer treatment
This trial collects information from people with suspected ovarian cancer and uses it to improve diagnosis and help predict which treatments may work. It may also look for targeted options, based on scan and medical data results.
TurkuAges 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.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 50–70 - NCT04861194Recruiting
