- NCT06465069RecruitingPhase 1
Study of an experimental drug for advanced bladder and other cancers
This trial tests a new drug called LY4052031 for people with advanced or metastatic cancers, especially bladder cancer. The drug aims to slow or stop tumor growth. Doctors will check if it is safe and how well it works.

Study of a radioactive drug for advanced prostate cancer
This study tests a new radioactive drug, [225Ac]-AZD2284, for men with prostate cancer that has spread and no longer responds to hormone therapy. The drug is designed to target cancer cells and deliver radiation directly to them, potentially slowing the cancer's growth.

Felzartamab for kidney transplant patients with late microvascular inflammation
This trial tests a new medication, felzartamab, given as an infusion to help adults who received a kidney transplant and now have a type of kidney inflammation called microvascular inflammation. The goal is to see if it can slow or stop damage to the new kidney and improve its function.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18–74 - NCT07265947RecruitingPhase 2
Dabogratinib for low grade upper tract urothelial carcinoma
This trial tests a new pill, dabogratinib, for people with low grade cancer in the upper urinary tract (the tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder). It may help shrink or control the cancer without needing surgery to remove the kidney.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07751133RecruitingPhase 3

This study tests different ways of giving hormone therapy to find the right dose for men with prostate cancer that has spread. It aims to help manage the disease while limiting side effects.
ManchesterAges 18 years+ - NCT07466498RecruitingPhase 2
Estrogen patch for men with metastatic prostate cancer
This study tests whether an estrogen patch can improve quality of life for men with prostate cancer that has spread. It may be an option if you haven't started certain hormone treatments yet.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT07514351Recruiting
Comparing two procedures for medium-to-large kidney stones
This study compares two ways to remove kidney stones that are medium to large in size. It will help find out which method works better and is safer for patients.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07115953Recruiting
Spiral nerve treatment for uncontrolled high blood pressure
This trial tests a new procedure to treat high blood pressure by using a special catheter to calm overactive nerves in your kidneys. It may help you achieve better blood pressure control if medications are not enough.
MelbourneAges 18 years+ - NCT07783282RecruitingPhase 1
How prostate cancer drugs affect a new medicine
This study looks at how a new medicine called fezolinetant is processed by the body when taken alongside common prostate cancer hormone treatments. It is an early-phase trial that helps researchers understand if there are any drug interactions, which could be important for future treatment options.
Plovdiv, Plovdiv ProvinceAges 50–75 - NCT07714018Recruiting
Comparing two weight loss programs for kidney cancer patients
This study tests two different weight loss programs to see which one helps prevent kidney cancer from growing in people with small kidney masses who are under active surveillance. It may help by improving overall health and potentially slowing cancer progression.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06510374RecruitingPhase 3
Gene therapy vs. observation for intermediate risk bladder cancer
This trial tests a new gene therapy called nadofaragene firadenovec versus just watching and waiting (observation) for people with a specific type of bladder cancer that hasn't grown into the muscle. The goal is to see if the gene therapy can help keep the cancer from coming back.
Mobile, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07397715Recruiting
Ultrasound signs of adenomyosis and related symptoms
This study uses ultrasound to look for signs of adenomyosis (a condition where the uterine lining grows into the muscle wall) and see how those signs relate to symptoms. It may help doctors better diagnose and treat the condition.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT06190717Recruiting
Ultrasound implant to help dialysis fistula mature
This study tests whether a special ultrasound implant (EchoMark) helps a new dialysis fistula mature properly. It involves people with advanced kidney disease who are starting or already on dialysis and are having a fistula created in the upper arm.
Dothan, AlabamaAges 18–84 - NCT07006753Enrolling by invitation
Surgical repair for urethral diverticulum in women
This study tests a new surgical method for treating a urethral diverticulum, which is a pocket that forms along the urethra (the tube that carries urine out of the body). The technique fills and covers the diverticulum wall to repair it and may help relieve symptoms.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–75 - NCT04775355Recruiting
Track urine and gut changes during prostate cancer treatment
This study looks at how your urine and gut (intestine) microbes change while you undergo prostate cancer treatments, including hormone therapy (androgen deprivation) and/or radiation. The goal is to better understand these biological changes, which may help improve future treatment planning.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07877662Enrolling by invitation
Partnering VA centers with infectious disease experts
This study helps VA medical centers that don't have their own infectious disease expert get support from a specialist at another VA. It aims to improve how these centers handle infections and quality of care.
Hines, IllinoisAges Any age - NCT07713680Recruiting
Predicting beta-2 microglobulin rebound after dialysis
This study looks at how a protein called beta-2 microglobulin (β2M) changes after your dialysis session. It aims to better understand this protein's levels to help manage your treatment.
StevenageAges 18 years+ - NCT07604194Recruiting
Two procedures for vein leakage erectile dysfunction
This study compares two procedures to fix erectile dysfunction caused by vein leakage. It aims to find which one works better at helping you get and keep an erection.
Al Mansurah, Dakahlia GovernorateAges 40–80 - NCT04792463Recruiting
BAP1 gene cancer-risk study and family cancer patterns
This study looks at how the BAP1 gene affects cancer risk and what cancers people develop, including within families. You may be able to join if you have a known BAP1-related mutation, a strong family cancer history, or a concerning cancer pattern linked to BAP1.
