Sydney, New South WalesAges 50 years+ - NCT04611087Recruiting
Weight-loss program participants: self-monitoring focus group
This trial is looking to learn from people who finished a specific weight-loss program recently and ask them to share their experiences. The goal is to improve how weight-loss support and tracking work for participants.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT04622423Recruiting
Advanced therapies for colon or pancreas liver metastases
This study tests advanced treatments for cancer that has spread to the liver, either from colon cancer or pancreatic cancer. It may help by targeting liver tumors using treatment plans and, for some participants, liver tissue samples.
Milan, MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT04683315RecruitingPhase 2
Pancreatic cancer biopsy-guided chemo before surgery
This trial uses a special gene test on fluid taken from an endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) biopsy to help choose chemotherapy before surgery for pancreas cancer. It aims to see if this approach improves outcomes by matching treatment to the tumor’s RNA pattern.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04634591Recruiting
Weight-loss surgery study for people with severe obesity
This trial studies bariatric (weight-loss) surgery and how well it helps people reach and keep a healthier weight. You may qualify if you have severe obesity and have not been able to maintain weight loss with other attempts, and if you can safely follow the study plan.
Bialystok, Podlaskie VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT04613791Recruiting
Alcohol and addictive behaviors in people with obesity
This study looks at how often people with obesity struggle with alcohol or other addictive behaviors, and how these issues change over time. Understanding this connection may help doctors better support patients managing obesity.
NîmesAges 18 years+ - NCT04654000Recruiting
Rheopheresis to treat painful skin damage in calciphylaxis
This trial studies whether a treatment called rheopheresis, added to standard care, can help people with calciphylaxis whose skin wounds are getting worse. It may be considered when ulcers or dead (necrotic) skin appear despite conventional treatment.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT04675749Recruiting
Quality of life study in adult women with X-ALD
This study looks at quality of life in adult women who have X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD). It may help researchers understand how this condition affects daily life and well-being.
Leipzig, SaxonyAges 18 years+ - NCT02118467RecruitingPhase 4
Testing medicines that raise blood pressure in ICU shock patients
This trial studies whether “blood pressure–supporting” medicines (given through a central line) work well and safely for adults in the ICU who have shock. Your team may use the results to improve care for people with low blood pressure and poor blood flow to organs.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT02229916Recruiting
Follow-up study for testicular cancer after recent treatment
This study looks at how people with testicular cancer are doing after finishing treatment. It mainly focuses on follow-up visits (surveillance) and whether you are in remission, which can help doctors understand and improve post-treatment care.
Sankt GallenAges 18 years+ - NCT03977233RecruitingPhase 2
Biopsies and FOLFIRINOX for non-metastatic pancreatic cancer
This Phase 2 study looks at different types (subtypes) of pancreatic tumors in people treated with FOLFIRINOX, a chemotherapy. It requires tumor biopsies before and after treatment to see how the tumor changes, which may help doctors better match treatments in the future.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18–99 - NCT04528355Recruiting
Study of hospital data after stem cell transplant for non-cancer illness
This study collects medical information from people with certain non-cancer conditions who receive a stem cell transplant. It may help doctors better understand transplant outcomes and care, since the study focuses on data collection rather than adding new treatment.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 2 months–60 years - NCT04569591Recruiting
Using DDAVP with PET scans to find pituitary tumor source
This study tests whether giving DDAVP before a PET scan can help doctors better locate the pituitary problem in people with Cushing disease. It may help confirm where the ACTH-producing tumor is so surgery can be planned more accurately.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 8–99 - NCT04496895Recruiting
Orange peel drink study for reducing body fat
This trial looks at whether a fermented orange peel product can lower body fat in adults. It may help if you have higher body fat and/or fatty liver, and you meet safety and health limits.
