Semaglutide for belly fat and liver health in kidney disease
This study looks at whether semaglutide (a diabetes medication) affects belly fat and the liver in people who have both type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease. It aims to understand if the drug can improve these health markers even in patients with reduced kidney function.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT07188025RecruitingPhase 3
Cancer DNA test to guide chemo after rectal cancer surgery
This trial tests whether checking for tumor DNA in your blood after surgery can help decide if you need additional chemotherapy. If the test finds cancer DNA, you may get chemo to lower the risk of the cancer coming back.
's-HertogenboschAges 18 years+ - NCT07188103RecruitingPhase 2
Ivonescimab and short radiation for advanced esophageal cancer
This trial combines a targeted immunotherapy drug (ivonescimab) with a short course of radiation to treat advanced esophageal cancer that has worsened after first treatment. It aims to see if this combination can help when standard options have stopped working.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–80 - NCT07189715Recruiting
Testing a new memory technique for anxiety
This trial tests a technique called imagery rescripting, which helps change how you remember upsetting memories from childhood. A computer program may help make this more effective. This could help people with high anxiety who remember their parents being critical.
Poznan, WielkopolskaAges 18–35 - NCT07189312Recruiting
Colorectal cancer surgery study using spatio-temporal analysis
This trial tests a new way to analyze data from colorectal cancer patients who are scheduled for surgery. It may help doctors understand the disease better and plan more effective treatments.

Light, ex-vivo treatment and antivirals for lungs from hepatitis B donors
This trial tests a new way to safely use donor lungs that carry the hepatitis B virus (HBV). It combines a special light treatment, ex-vivo lung perfusion (cleaning the lungs outside the body), and antiviral medicines to prevent infection in the recipient. If you are on the lung transplant list and have been vaccinated against hepatitis B, this study may help expand your donor options.
