Testing vasopressin and steroids with adrenaline in cardiac arrest
This trial studies whether adding vasopressin and steroids to the standard emergency medicine adrenaline improves survival after out-of-hospital or in-hospital cardiac arrest. If you qualify, the treatment is chosen by chance (randomized) to help doctors learn which approach works best.
GothenburgAges 18 years+ - NCT02947503RecruitingPhase 3

Compare two weight-loss surgeries for type 2 diabetes control
This Phase 3 trial compares sleeve gastrectomy versus a different bypass-style operation to improve blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes. It may help some people lower blood sugar and diabetes medication needs, but you must meet specific safety and health criteria.
Seongnam-siAges 18 years+ - NCT05242861Recruiting
Reviewing outcomes after brachytherapy for women’s cancers
This study looks back at medical records to understand results after brachytherapy (a form of cancer radiation delivered from inside or close to the tumor) in women with gynecologic cancer. It may help doctors improve future treatment decisions, but you would not have to receive an experimental treatment.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–80 - NCT05327283Recruiting
Genetic testing for early menopause in younger people
This study looks at DNA changes to understand the cause of premature ovarian insufficiency (early menopause). It may help clarify what’s happening in your body and guide future care.
GenovaAges 15–38 - NCT03785743Recruiting
Compare keyhole vs open surgery for pancreatic cancer
This trial compares two ways of doing surgery for pancreatic cancer: keyhole (small cuts) versus open surgery (one larger cut). It’s meant to see which approach works better for people who are well enough for either option.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT04190849Recruiting
Children’s liver fat disease registry in Europe
This is a registry study collecting information about children and teens with fatty liver disease that isn’t caused by alcohol. It aims to better understand this condition and may help future research and treatments.
MaastrichtAges Up to 18 years - NCT03158090Recruiting
Study of treatment patterns for acromegaly over time
This study follows people with acromegaly to better understand how treatments are used in real life and how well they work over time. It may help improve future treatment choices by comparing outcomes across different care patterns.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT03676348Recruiting
Quality of life study around thyroid surgery
This study looks at how thyroid cancer—or thyroid tumors that may be cancer—affect your quality of life before and after surgery. It may help doctors understand what patients experience and how treatment planning could be better.
OsloAges 18 years+ - NCT04019249Recruiting
Online program to help adults manage weight
This trial tests a web-based (phone and internet) program meant to help adults manage obesity in everyday clinic life. It may help you learn habits and receive guidance through an online treatment program.
HelsinkiAges 18 years+ - NCT05228340Recruiting
Treating toe ulcers by releasing tight tendons to prevent recurrence
This study looks at whether a minor procedure on a toe (called a flexor tenotomy) can reduce the chance that diabetic toe ulcers come back. It is for adults with diabetes who have nerve damage in the feet and have had toe ulcers before.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT03865914Recruiting
Study linking diabetes kidney findings to biopsy results
This study looks at people with type 2 diabetes who have kidney problems and relates their symptoms and lab findings to what is seen on kidney biopsy. It may help doctors better understand what is driving kidney damage in diabetes.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05335603Recruiting
