Houston, TexasAges 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 - 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+ - 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+ - NCT04726241RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing blood and bone marrow samples in young leukemia patients
This trial looks at blood and bone marrow samples from children and teens whose leukemia has come back or is hard to treat. The goal is to better understand the disease and guide future options for these patients.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Up to 22 years - 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+ - 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+ - 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+ - NCT04720846Recruiting
Physical therapy for hip and groin pain without arthritis
This trial studies a categorized physical therapy approach for people with hip impingement and hip/groin pain that is not caused by arthritis. It may help by testing whether a structured PT plan improves pain and function for the right type of hip problem.
New York, New YorkAges 18–60 - 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.
