Study of adrenal nodules and how cortisol levels respond to a test
This study looks at adrenal nodules found on a CT scan and checks whether your cortisol levels stay high after a medication test. It may help researchers understand what causes abnormal cortisol production and how often it happens in people with adrenal growths.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT05711758Recruiting
Endoscopic stomach muscle cut for weight loss
This trial tests whether an endoscopic procedure that cuts a stomach outlet muscle can help with weight loss and be safe. You would be screened to make sure you don’t have certain stomach, heart/lung, or pregnancy-related conditions that could make the procedure unsafe.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–70 - NCT05730582Enrolling by invitation
Improve diabetes screening by using health outreach from records
This trial looks at whether outreach messages sent using your electronic health record can help more adults get diabetes screening. It’s designed for people who are at risk for diabetes but are not already in the clinic’s diabetes registry.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT05725967Enrolling by invitation
Endoscopic and bariatric procedures for obesity
This study looks at people who are having obesity-related procedures, including options done with a scope (endoscopic) and revision after prior bariatric surgery. It may help doctors understand outcomes and improve care for people undergoing these treatments.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–80 - NCT05728697Recruiting
Test a liver ultrasound method to measure fat and stiffness
This trial tests a special ultrasound technique during an endoscopy to see how well it can detect changes in the liver from non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. It may help improve non-invasive assessment before or alongside a follow-up liver biopsy.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05733013Recruiting
Using redifferentiation medicines before radioactive iodine for thyroid cancer
This study collects information on how redifferentiation medicines used before radioactive iodine work in everyday care for certain thyroid cancers that are unlikely to respond to radioactive iodine. It may help doctors understand the best real-world way to use these medicines to plan and deliver treatment.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05720338RecruitingPhase 3
Does everyone need a drain after distal pancreas surgery?
This study compares whether patients need an internal abdominal drain after removing part of the pancreas (a distal pancreatectomy). It aims to see if skipping the drain is as safe and may reduce drain-related problems.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05743049Recruiting
Collecting blood markers in pancreatic cancer patients
This study collects samples of substances in your blood to learn more about pancreatic cancer. It may help researchers find better ways to track the disease or understand which patients may benefit from future treatments.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05743868Recruiting
Study of how insulin resistance affects blood fats
This study looks at how differences in insulin resistance may change how the liver makes triglycerides (a type of blood fat). It may help researchers understand why some people have higher triglycerides and how to target them better.
