Long-Term Health Outcomes in Children With Hirschsprung's Disease or Anorectal Malformations
This study follows children who were born with Hirschsprung's disease (a condition affecting the nerves in the colon) or anorectal malformations (differences in how the rectum or anus formed) to understand how they do over time. Researchers will track health outcomes and quality of life to help improve care for future children with these conditions.
Montreal, QuebecAges Up to 18 years - NCT07595172RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New drug combination for advanced pancreatic cancer
This study tests whether combining three treatments—NALIRIFOX (chemotherapy), Adebrelimab (an immune-boosting antibody), and PULSAR (radiation)—can help people with advanced pancreatic cancer that hasn't been treated before. The goal is to see if this combination works better than standard care.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–75 - NCT07598669Recruiting
Austrian Primary Biliary Cholangitis Registry Study
This is a registry study that collects health information from people with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), a rare liver disease where the immune system damages bile ducts. By joining, you help researchers better understand PBC and improve care for patients with this condition.
Klagenfurt, CarinthiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07601464Recruiting
MicroRNA Changes in Liver Cancer Treated with Heat
This study examines how certain molecules in your blood and tumor tissue change when liver cancer is treated with heat ablation (a procedure that destroys tumors using heat). Understanding these changes may help doctors better predict treatment success in the future.
Bologna, Emilia-RomagnaAges 18–64 - NCT07595835RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Radioactive particles injected into pancreatic tumors
This trial tests a new treatment where doctors use imaging to guide radioactive particles directly into locally advanced pancreatic cancer tumors that haven't spread. The goal is to shrink or control the cancer with radiation delivered right to the tumor.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT07600008RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Probiotics as a supplement for reflux disease management
This early-stage trial tests whether a probiotic supplement can help support treatment of reflux disease (GERD) in patients already taking a standard reflux medication. Researchers want to see if adding probiotics might improve symptoms or overall digestive health.
OlomoucAges 40–55 - NCT07596654Recruiting
Surgery versus chemotherapy for early-stage small cell esophageal cancer
This study compares how well surgery works compared to chemotherapy and radiation for treating small cell cancer that started in the esophagus and hasn't spread far. Researchers will examine which approach helps patients live longer.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07599930Recruiting
Novel Snack for Perimenopausal Symptoms and Wellness
This study tests whether a specially designed snack can help reduce hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, and other symptoms that happen during perimenopause (the years leading up to menopause). You'll eat the snack regularly and answer questions about how you feel.
London, LondonAges 40–55 - NCT07602920Recruiting
Understanding Gut Leakage in Dengue Fever
This study investigates whether dengue fever causes the intestinal lining to become leaky, allowing harmful substances to enter the bloodstream. Researchers compare blood markers in dengue patients and healthy volunteers to understand how this happens and why it might make dengue worse.
