Testing azirkitug for lung, head/neck, and other solid cancers
This Phase 1 study tests how a new medicine (azirkitug) behaves in the body and how safe it is, given by IV infusion alone or with other cancer drugs. It may help people with several advanced solid tumor cancers, especially after standard treatments have stopped working.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05040373Recruiting
Patisiran pregnancy safety monitoring program
This program monitors the safety of the drug patisiran during pregnancy. If you have received patisiran around the time of pregnancy, it may help track any effects on you and your baby.
Iowa City, IowaAges Any age - NCT05059444Recruiting
Blood test to catch cancer early after treatment
This study looks for signs of cancer left in the body after treatment using a simple blood test (called a liquid biopsy). It aims to see if the test can catch cancer that might come back earlier than regular scans.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05007990Recruiting
Interview study of caregiving networks over a person’s life
This study uses interviews and questionnaires to better understand who makes up a caregiver’s support network when caring for someone with a long-term health condition. Your answers may help researchers understand how caregiving changes over time and across different health situations.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT05047354Recruiting
Study cholesterol metabolism in rare genetic conditions
This study looks at body chemistry (cholesterol-related lab findings) and physical features in people with Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome and related rare genetic cholesterol disorders. It may help researchers better understand these conditions and how they affect the body.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1 day–100 years - NCT05031507Recruiting
Study of bone disorders and inherited genetic factors
This study looks at bone (skeletal) disorders to better understand possible genetic causes, especially when phosphate levels or bone growth are affected. You may join either if you (or your child) has a bone disorder, or if you’re an unaffected family member who might help compare results.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2 months–100 years - NCT05053971RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Entinostat plus ZEN003694 for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1/2 study tests a new combination anti-cancer treatment (entinostat plus ZEN003694) in people with advanced solid tumors that can’t be controlled with standard care. It aims to find a safe dose and see whether the treatment can shrink tumors or control the disease.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT05052671Recruiting
Blood test for residual cancer in resectable pancreatic cancer
This trial studies a blood test that looks for tiny traces of cancer-related DNA (called ctDNA) in people with pancreatic cancer that can be removed with surgery. The goal is to see whether this test can better predict how the cancer behaves and guide treatment decisions around surgery.
Oklahoma City, OklahomaAges 18–99 - NCT05028205Recruiting
Fruit and vegetable voucher program for kids
This trial tests whether giving families vouchers for fruits and vegetables helps improve children’s eating and health. It focuses on children ages 4–10 who have higher body weight for their age and who can participate with an adult caregiver.
Knoxville, TennesseeAges 4–10 - NCT05065801RecruitingPhase 2
New metastatic pancreatic cancer: targeted chemo before FOLFIRINOX
This trial tests whether adding Gembrax (a combination that includes gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel) before standard FOLFIRINOX works better than FOLFIRINOX alone in people with pancreatic cancer that has already spread. It looks at whether this “step-up first” approach improves results and is still tolerable.
Grenoble, Auvergne-Rhône-AlpesAges 18–75 - NCT05051436RecruitingPhase 4
Testing mirabegron and tadalafil to improve sugar control
This study looks at whether mirabegron and tadalafil can improve blood sugar control in people with prediabetes. It may help determine if these medicines can slow the move from prediabetes toward diabetes.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 35–65 - NCT05012033Recruiting
Study how high-dose steroids move through the body
This study measures blood levels of high-dose steroid medicines (prednisolone or related steroids) to understand how the body processes them in different real-life situations. It may help improve how steroids are dosed and monitored for people needing short-term or longer-term anti-inflammatory treatment.
LondonAges 18–75 - NCT05029115Enrolling by invitation
SGLT2 pill study for atrial fibrillation with type 2 diabetes
This trial tests whether an SGLT2 inhibitor pill can help people who have atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) and type 2 diabetes. You may be eligible if you’re in the right age range, on diabetes pills only, and meet specific heart and lab criteria.
Yangcheon, SeoulAges 20–80 - NCT05051722Recruiting
Test DNA blood and tissue markers to detect gynecologic cancers
This study looks for “methylated DNA markers” (special DNA patterns) to help detect endometrial, ovarian, and cervical cancers, and to support doctors around planned procedures. It may help find cancer earlier or better sort out who needs closer treatment.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05005039Recruiting
Study how bariatric surgery may affect bone strength
This trial studies whether bariatric surgery (bypass or sleeve) changes bone loss in postmenopausal women with obesity. It may help doctors understand who is at higher risk for weaker bones and how to prevent it.
LilleAges 45–70 - NCT05028309Recruiting
Study how obesity affects breathing and exercise in older adults
This study compares how body weight (higher or lower body fat) affects lung function, breathing during exercise, and exercise capacity in adults ages 65–75. You may be asked to do lung and exercise testing, but only if you meet health and activity restrictions.
Dallas, TexasAges 65–75 - NCT05053555Recruiting
High-dose radiation treatment for hard-to-remove liver tumors
This study uses a form of targeted radiation placed inside/near the liver to treat liver tumors that can’t be surgically removed. It’s meant to shrink or control tumors, especially when they sit near blood vessels or other sensitive organs.
Houston, TexasAges 19 years+ - NCT05039801RecruitingPhase 1
Study drug IACS-6274 tested for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1 study tests the experimental drug IACS-6274, sometimes with bevacizumab and paclitaxel, in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. It aims to find the safest dose and to learn whether the treatment can shrink or control cancer for certain tumor mutation types.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05055804Enrolling by invitation
Study links an ELG test reading to blood glucose
This study looks at whether a new ELG test reading matches your blood sugar results in people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes. You may be asked to fast and come for two short visits so researchers can compare the tests.

Biobank for inflammatory arthritis and osteoporosis
This study collects and stores health information and samples for people with long-term inflammatory arthritis (like rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthritis, or psoriatic arthritis) or with osteoporosis. It helps researchers understand these conditions and may lead to better future treatments.
ToulouseAges 18–99 - NCT05057806RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing how ketones may affect heart benefits in type 2 diabetes
This early study looks at people with type 2 diabetes and certain types of heart failure to see whether changes in “ketones” relate to heart benefits. It may help researchers understand who could benefit most from treatment-related metabolism changes.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT04941794Recruiting
Test heart-related blood markers in people with type 2 diabetes
This study looks at blood tests (called biomarkers) to see if they can help predict chronic heart failure risk. It focuses on adults with type 2 diabetes over age 50 who do not already have certain heart conditions.
