- NCT02143986Recruiting
Testing glycosylated ferritin to evaluate inflammation
This trial looks at a blood test called “glycosylated ferritin” to help doctors better identify certain dangerous inflammatory conditions. It may help clarify whether your high iron-related marker is due to inflammation rather than other causes.
BrusselsAges Up to 85 years - NCT02299921Recruiting
Alcohol and drug effects on immunity in ICU breathing patients
This study looks at how alcohol and other drugs can affect the body’s immune system in people who are very sick in the ICU due to breathing problems. It may help doctors better understand immune changes during critical illness and respiratory failure.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–90 - NCT02735707RecruitingPhase 3
Adaptive trial for severe pneumonia care in intensive care
This study tests ways to improve treatment for adults with severe pneumonia that lands them in the ICU, adjusting the plan as results come in. It may help your care team find better treatments for lung infection and breathing/heart support needs.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT02139163Recruiting
Study of community-acquired pneumonia symptoms and X-ray findings
This study looks at adults with community-acquired pneumonia, using symptom checks and chest X-ray results. It may help researchers better understand what pneumonia looks like in the community and how it progresses.
HanoverAges 18 years+ - NCT02514655Recruiting
Device to control breathing-tube cuff pressure to prevent pneumonia
This trial tests a simple device that helps keep the cuff pressure on a breathing tube at the right level. The goal is to reduce the risk of pneumonia that can happen in people on a ventilator.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT02393157RecruitingPhase 2
Obinutuzumab plus chemotherapy for certain CD20+ relapsed lymphomas
This Phase 2 study tests how well obinutuzumab (an antibody medicine) combined with chemotherapy works for people whose CD20-positive B-cell lymphoma has come back or didn’t respond to initial treatment. It may help by attacking lymphoma cells that carry the CD20 marker.
Valhalla, New YorkAges 3–31 - NCT02719314Recruiting
Study bone loss from steroid use in people with inflammatory disease
This study looks at how steroid medicines (called glucocorticoids) affect bone strength in people with long-term inflammatory rheumatic conditions or psoriasis. It may help improve how doctors check and manage osteoporosis risk and bone metabolism over time.
BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT02149004Recruiting
HIV research study for people living with HIV
This study focuses on HIV in a research “platform” run by a university. It may help researchers learn more about HIV and improve care over time.
Cologne, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT02877303RecruitingPhase 2
Frontline drug treatment for newly diagnosed B-cell leukemia
This trial tests a combination of targeted and chemotherapy medicines as first treatment for newly diagnosed B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or related lymphoblastic lymphoma. It aims to improve how well treatment controls the leukemia and how long people can stay in remission.
Houston, TexasAges 14 years+ - NCT02283112Recruiting
Testing how well drug tests work on different samples
This study checks whether lab tests can correctly measure drugs in different types of body samples. If you’re an adult who can consent, you may be able to help validate these testing methods so doctors get more reliable results.
LiverpoolAges 18 years+ - NCT02883647Recruiting
Stopping antiviral treatment in chronic hepatitis B
This trial studies what happens after stopping long-term hepatitis B antiviral medicine in people whose virus has stayed controlled. It also follows patients over time to see how well they remain stable and safe after stopping.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT02373280Recruiting
7-day tailored treatment to clear H. pylori infection
This trial tests whether a personalized 7-day treatment plan can fully get rid of H. pylori, a common stomach germ. It may help prevent ongoing stomach irritation and ulcers caused by the infection.
Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 18–85 - NCT02193295Recruiting
Testing how changing fats affects insulin resistance
This study tests how “lipid” (fat) changes in the body affect insulin resistance, which is when the body doesn’t respond to insulin as well as it should. Because it’s done in healthy people, it’s mainly looking at basic biology and may help guide future treatments.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18–90 - NCT02200276Recruiting
Flu shot study for adults over 75
This study looks at getting an influenza (flu) vaccine in adults age 75 and older. It may help doctors understand how to safely give flu shots to older adults.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 75 years+ - NCT02863757Recruiting
Follow-up study for chronic hepatitis B with fatty liver
This study follows people who have chronic hepatitis B and also have fat buildup in the liver (nonalcoholic fatty liver disease). It’s looking at how these conditions behave over time and what may help, using information collected during follow-up visits.
Hong Kong, Hong KongAges Any age - NCT02639299Recruiting
Screening healthy adults for malaria vaccines and drug studies
This study screens healthy adults to see who can join future malaria vaccine or investigational malaria drug studies, including a controlled malaria exposure. It may help researchers test safer vaccines/drugs, but participation requires good health and strict medical eligibility.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–50 - NCT02357238Recruiting
Study of genetics in people with uveitis
This study looks at genetic (inherited) differences in people with uveitis. The goal is to better understand what may cause uveitis and potentially help with future treatments.
Cleveland, OhioAges 6 years+ - NCT02738645Recruiting
Study of pneumonia patients in the ICU
This study follows people who are admitted to a respiratory intensive care unit (a special ICU for breathing problems) because they have pneumonia. It may help doctors better understand pneumonia in ICU patients and improve care in the future.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT02803242Recruiting
Patient research network for people with lung symptoms
This trial enrolls adults to help build a patient-powered research network for chronic lung disease. If you join, you’ll likely be asked to complete surveys or provide information to help researchers learn how symptoms and health outcomes change over time.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT02898987Recruiting
Study quality of care for adults living with HIV
This trial looks at how care is being provided to adults with HIV who may be on treatment or not, and regardless of immune strength. It may help improve future care plans by identifying what works best in real-world settings.
BelfortAges 18 years+ - NCT02454569Recruiting
Study for people living with HIV willing to join
This study follows people who have tested positive for HIV. It aims to better understand HIV over time, but you can only participate if you agree to join the study.
Battalapalli, Andhra PradeshAges Any age - NCT02545478Recruiting
Testing blood markers in people with and without infection
This study looks at blood test “markers” to tell the difference between infection and non-infectious illness. It may help doctors recognize infection earlier and avoid confusion with other conditions.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT02579967RecruitingPhase 2
Stem cell transplant for primary immune system disorders
This study tests whether an allogeneic stem cell (bone marrow) transplant can correct an inherited immune problem in people with severe primary immunodeficiencies. It may help reduce life-threatening infections and improve quality of life, depending on your overall health and donor match.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 4–75 - NCT03357536Recruiting
Study genes that may make people more prone to listeria
This study looks at whether certain inherited genetic differences may increase the risk of getting listeria infection (listeriosis) or developing more severe or unusual forms. Results may help researchers better understand who is at higher risk and why.
