Study chemo plus irreversible electroporation for stage III pancreatic cancer
This early study tests a combination of chemotherapy and a procedure called irreversible electroporation (IRE) for people with stage III pancreatic cancer. It may help shrink or control tumors, and also studies safety in this group.
Louisville, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT05593549RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Studying blood vessel damage in type 2 diabetes
This early study looks at how “autophagy” (your body’s cell recycling process) relates to small blood-vessel problems in people with type 2 diabetes. It may help researchers understand mechanisms and possible future treatments, mainly for people who meet specific health and medication criteria.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18–80 - NCT05734313Recruiting
Teletherapy CBT for anxiety and depression in people with diabetes
This trial tests a unified, talk-therapy program delivered by video (telemedicine) to help with anxiety and depressive symptoms. If you have type 1 diabetes and symptoms of anxiety or depression, it may help you learn coping skills and improve mood.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–64 - NCT04352244Recruiting
Study of brown fat activity in healthy adults
This study measures how “brown fat” works in the body using planned medical procedures. It looks at healthy adults to understand brown fat activity and what affects it.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–75 - NCT05655910Recruiting
Nutrition support program for people with LVADs in the hospital
This trial tests whether an enhanced nutrition plan can improve care for adults who already have an LVAD (a heart pumping device). It’s designed for hospitalized patients and looks at who can safely eat by mouth while avoiding high-risk situations.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT02445781RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Study different low-blood-sugar levels in adults
This early study tests how people respond to different degrees of low blood sugar. It may help researchers understand what “low sugar” feels like and how to make it safer to detect and manage.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–55 - NCT05000996Recruiting
Gut microbiome study for people having metabolic surgery
This study looks at your gut bacteria (your “microbiome”) around the time of metabolic surgery. It may help researchers understand how surgery affects gut health and related conditions like diabetes, blood pressure, and cholesterol.
