Testing body heat regulation after heat stroke in soldiers
This study looks at how well the body controls temperature during exercise after a past heat-stroke episode, in a military setting. It may help improve safety and recovery plans for people who have had exercise-related heat stroke.

Hyperthermia treatment database for cancer patients
This study collects information from cancer patients receiving hyperthermia treatment, which uses heat to help fight cancer. It helps doctors learn more about how well hyperthermia works and how safe it is.
BerlinAges Any age - NCT06019585Recruiting
Comparing two bandages after wrist fracture surgery
This study compares two ways to support the wrist after surgery for a broken distal radius. One uses a compression bandage, the other uses a splint. The goal is to see which helps you heal and return to daily activities faster.
CórdobaAges 18–75 - NCT06027645Recruiting
Crawling therapy for very premature infants
This trial tests if early crawling practice on a special skate can help very premature babies at risk for developmental problems. It aims to improve their movement and brain development.
ParisAges 9 months–10 months - NCT03742687Recruiting
Testing a shorter, stronger radiation schedule for lung cancer
This trial studies a different way to deliver radiation to people with locally advanced, non-operable non-small cell lung cancer. It may help by aiming to treat the tumor effectively with a different radiation timing and dose pattern.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT05846321Recruiting
Registry for blood vessel injury after trauma follow-up
This study keeps a registry of adults with injuries to blood vessels caused by trauma and tracks follow-up outcomes. Your participation may help doctors better understand how these injuries heal and how to manage them.
AugsburgAges 18 years+ - NCT05961748Recruiting
Brain and heart illness registry for adults in China
This study is a registry that collects health information from adults who have certain new heart and/or brain conditions. It may help researchers understand how these problems occur together and improve future care planning.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05165056Recruiting
Light therapy to prevent vaginal side effects from radiation
This study tests whether photobiomodulation (a light-based therapy) can help prevent and lessen vaginal problems caused by radiation for endometrial cancer. If you get radiation to the pelvis, the trial aims to improve comfort and reduce tightening or damage over time.
Genk, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT04163172Recruiting
Compare two surgeries for broken lower arm elbow bone
This trial compares two operations—partial elbow replacement versus a hardware repair—for certain types of distal humeral (lower upper-arm) fractures. It may help find which approach leads to better healing and arm function after injury.
CopenhagenAges 50 years+ - NCT04560803Recruiting
Skin grafts to help radiation wounds heal faster
This study tests a small skin graft approach to help wounds caused by prior radiation heal better. If you have a radiation-related skin wound that usually heals slowly on its own, this may speed healing and improve comfort.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–80 - NCT05724004Recruiting
Alectinib then targeted radiation for ALK-positive lung cancer
This trial tests giving alectinib first, then adding targeted radiation to remaining spots of cancer in people with ALK-rearranged advanced non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to control the cancer after an initial response and help keep disease from progressing.
StockholmAges 20 years+ - NCT06077942Recruiting
FX shoulder replacement study
This study looks at how well FX shoulder replacement devices work for people who received them between 2018 and 2023. It helps doctors learn more about the outcomes of these implants.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges Any age - NCT06076902Recruiting
Patch study for large rotator cuff tear repair
This study tests whether adding a patch to standard rotator cuff repair helps large tears heal better. It's for adults who need their first surgery for a tear involving at least two tendons.
Frauenfeld, ThurgauAges 30–75 - NCT05719935Recruiting
KinematX wrist replacement registry for people with wrist arthritis
This trial is a registry that follows people who get (or already had) a KinematX total wrist replacement. It collects health and recovery information to better understand outcomes for different wrist problems, like arthritis or certain bone alignment issues.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18–85 - NCT06111898Recruiting
Understanding movement in infants at risk
This study looks at how the brain and body work together to control movement in infants who are at high risk for developmental issues. It may help find early signs of motor problems.
GenevaAges 8 months–1 year - NCT05527509Recruiting
Study of risk and resilience in new RCMP cadets
This study follows people as they start RCMP Cadet Training to learn what factors affect “risk” and “resilience” (how well someone adapts under stress). It may help improve support for cadets during training.
Regina, SaskatchewanAges 19–57 - NCT05331118Recruiting
Study of complications and long-term outcomes after major surgery
This study follows people after planned, higher-risk surgery to learn what complications happen and how patients do long-term. It may help doctors predict risks and improve care for people having similar operations.
UtrechtAges 18 years+ - NCT05258448Recruiting
Chemo-radiotherapy for advanced, non-surgical lung cancer
This trial studies treatment that combines chemotherapy and radiation for people with advanced lung cancer that cannot be removed with surgery. It may help improve cure chances for patients who can complete the study tests, including heart scans.
Odense CAges 18 years+ - NCT06163833RecruitingPhase 2
Stem cell treatment for severe traumatic brain injury
This study tests whether a treatment made from donor stem cells (called mesenchymal stromal cells) can help people recover from a severe traumatic brain injury. The cells are given through a vein within 48 hours of the injury.
Monza, MBAges 18–70 - NCT06182943Recruiting
Electroacupuncture for recent mild to moderate ankle sprains
This study tests whether a type of acupuncture with mild electrical current (electroacupuncture) can help heal a fresh, mild-to-moderate ankle sprain. You may be eligible if you sprained your ankle within the last 48 hours, have no broken bones, and do not have serious health issues.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–60 - NCT04628416Recruiting
Negative-pressure dressing test for fibula flap donor skin graft
This trial studies whether a special suction dressing (negative pressure) helps healing at the skin-graft donor site for people getting a fibula free flap. It may reduce complications and improve how the graft takes, compared with standard care.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT06177509Recruiting
Exercise therapy for mild traumatic brain injury
This trial tests if graded aerobic exercise can help people who have ongoing symptoms after a mild traumatic brain injury (concussion). It aims to see if carefully increasing exercise intensity improves tolerance to physical activity.
NesoddtangenAges 18–60 - NCT03655782Recruiting
Retraining brain pathways to improve memory after mild brain injury
