Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–50 - NCT05969574Recruiting
Study links miscarriage history to low egg supply
This study looks at whether having multiple early miscarriages is connected to having a lower egg supply. It compares miscarriage history with “ovarian reserve” in people seen at specific fertility clinics.
Abu Dhabi, Abu Dhabi EmirateAges Any age - NCT05969795RecruitingPhase 1
Natural embryo transfer with or without progesterone support
This Phase 1 study compares pregnancy outcomes, especially live birth, when using a natural-cycle frozen embryo transfer with an embryo that is genetically euploid (normal chromosome number) versus doing transfers without luteal (progesterone) phase support. It may help determine whether adding progesterone around ovulation improves the chance of a live birth.
Abu DhabiAges 18–40 - NCT05983666Recruiting
Using ultrasound to check breathing tube placement
This study tests whether an ultrasound scan on the neck can help doctors confirm that a breathing tube is in the right place (the windpipe) instead of the food pipe during surgery.
Madrid, MadridAges 18–90 - NCT05989828RecruitingPhase 1
Engineered immune cells for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests a personalized treatment where your own immune cells are modified to recognize and attack cancer cells that have a specific marker called NY-ESO-1. It is for people with triple-negative breast cancer that has not responded to at least two prior treatments.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05991856Recruiting
Comparing ablation vs. surgery for adrenal tumors causing high blood pressure
This trial compares two treatments—ultrasound-guided ablation and laparoscopic adrenalectomy—for a type of adrenal tumor called aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) that causes high blood pressure and low potassium. The goal is to see which treatment works better for patients with a single, non-cancerous tumor.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06004154Recruiting
Imaging follow-up for giant cell arteritis patients
This study follows up patients with giant cell arteritis (Horton's disease) using MRI and ultrasound to see how the disease and treatment affect blood vessels over time. It aims to improve understanding of the condition and your imaging results.
ParisAges 50 years+ - NCT06007456Recruiting
Study of Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis in Children
This study looks at children with arthritis to better understand their condition using clinical exams, lab tests, and ultrasounds. It may help doctors learn more about different types of juvenile arthritis.
TriesteAges Up to 18 years - NCT06007794Recruiting
Muscle health study for post-cancer patients
This study uses ultrasound to measure thigh muscle mass and compares it to a whole-body scan. It aims to understand muscle changes after cancer treatment.
Pierre-BéniteAges 18–74 - NCT06010576Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided tube meeting vs. small cut for bile duct access
This trial compares two ways to get a tube into your bile duct when the usual method is difficult: one uses a special ultrasound-guided technique to meet the tube from a different angle, and the other uses a small cut to open the duct. It may help your doctor choose the safest and most effective approach for you.
Shatin, New TerritoriesAges 18 years+ - NCT06017193Recruiting
Ultrasound to check bone healing after tooth removal and graft
This study uses ultrasound to check how well your jawbone heals after a tooth is pulled and a bone graft is placed, as part of getting ready for a dental implant. If you have a tooth that needs to be removed and you're planning to get an implant, this trial may help monitor your healing.
