Focal therapy for medium-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests a gentler treatment called focal therapy that targets only the part of the prostate with cancer. It's for men whose prostate cancer has a Gleason score of 7, low PSA, and hasn't spread outside the prostate.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges 45 years+ - NCT06224140Recruiting
Dialysis without heparin: a safety study
This study tests whether dialysis can be done safely without using heparin (a blood thinner) in people with end-stage kidney disease. If successful, it could reduce the need for blood-thinning medications and their associated risks.
Marseille, Bouches du RhôneAges 18 years+ - NCT06224153Recruiting
Tracking Protein Intake in Advanced Kidney Disease
This study compares two ways to track how much protein you eat using a mobile app or website. It is for people with advanced chronic kidney disease who are already in a nutrition program and want to follow a low-protein diet.
Marseille, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT06224218Recruiting
Comparing two surgeries for enlarged prostate
This trial compares two types of surgery for men with an enlarged prostate (BPH) whose symptoms haven't improved with medication. The goal is to see which procedure works better.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–88 - NCT06225479Recruiting
Exercise for older men with urinary problems
This study tests whether a special exercise program can help older men with urinary symptoms from an enlarged prostate. You'll either exercise at home with a heart rate monitor or receive health education for 6 months.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 60 years+ - NCT06226220Recruiting
Nerve test for bladder device success in women
This study tests how well a short, in-office nerve evaluation (PNE) predicts the success of sacral neuromodulation—a treatment that uses mild electrical pulses to calm bladder nerves. It is for women with urgency leaking or very frequent urination.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06227468Recruiting
Mapping immune system genes in Greek adults
This study maps immune system genes (HLA) in Greek adults. It uses a simple cheek swab sample to collect data, with no experimental treatment.
Chaïdári, AtticaAges 18 years+ - NCT06233838Recruiting
Hemoperfusion study for kidney patients on dialysis
This trial tests a special blood-filtering treatment (hemoperfusion) for people with advanced kidney disease on regular dialysis. It aims to remove harmful substances that standard dialysis may not fully clear.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18 years+ - NCT06234410Recruiting
Heart risk check before kidney transplant
This study uses a special heart CT scan (called coronary angiography) to check the heart health of people waiting for a kidney transplant. It aims to see if this scan can help doctors better assess and manage heart risks before surgery.
Edinburgh, LothianAges 16 years+ - NCT06234605RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new combination for advanced kidney cancer
This trial tests an experimental drug (HC-7366) combined with an approved targeted therapy (belzutifan) for people with advanced kidney cancer. It aims to see if the combination is safe and works better than either drug alone.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06234592Recruiting
Blood pressure medicines and kidney health in septic shock
This trial tests whether different blood pressure medicines protect kidney function better in people with septic shock (a severe infection that causes low blood pressure). It compares norepinephrine (the standard treatment) with other options to see which is best for the kidneys.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT06235697RecruitingPhase 3
Hormone therapy with or without lymph node radiation for prostate cancer
This trial tests combining hormone therapy with different types of radiation (including high-dose external beam and brachytherapy) for men with prostate cancer that has a higher chance of coming back. It aims to see if adding radiation to the lymph nodes helps control the cancer better.
Antioch, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06237179RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Exercise program to reduce heart risk in prostate cancer
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program can help reduce heart disease risk in men with prostate cancer who are on hormone therapy. Participants will exercise at home or in a group and be monitored for heart health changes.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 40–85 - NCT06236373Recruiting
Understanding cancer survivors' needs in Reggio Emilia
This study aims to understand the challenges and needs of people who have survived certain cancers (breast, prostate, thyroid, colorectal, multiple myeloma, or lymphoma) and their caregivers. It uses interviews or focus groups to gather perspectives.
Reggio Emilia, Reggio EmiliaAges 18 years+ - NCT06236789Recruiting
Ifosfamide for men with advanced prostate cancer
This trial is studying whether the chemotherapy drug ifosfamide (given with mesna to protect the bladder) can help men whose prostate cancer has spread and is no longer controlled by hormone therapy. It is for men who have already tried the chemotherapy docetaxel.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06238310Recruiting
Comparing two markers to measure kidney function in intensive care
This trial compares two different substances, mannitol and iohexol, to see which one better measures how well your kidneys are filtering waste. It is for patients in intensive care with sudden or ongoing kidney problems, as well as stable chronic kidney disease patients seen in outpatient clinics.
GothenburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06239194RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
MdX2001 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, MDX2001, for people with advanced solid tumors that have spread. The study aims to find the best dose and see how well it works.
Denver, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT06239116RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
RM-718 for obesity from hypothalamus injury or Prader-Willi syndrome
This study tests a new medicine called RM-718 for people with severe obesity linked to a specific brain pathway (MC4R). It may help if your obesity is due to a brain injury or tumor affecting the hypothalamus, or if you have Prader-Willi syndrome.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 12–65 - NCT06239909Recruiting
Adjustable sphincter for urine leakage after prostate surgery
This trial is testing an adjustable artificial sphincter called Victo to help men who leak urine after prostate surgery. It may improve bladder control and quality of life.
Ostrava, Moravian-Silesian RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT06242119Recruiting
Testing a new PET scanner prototype
This study is testing a new type of PET scanner (called J-PET) to see if it works as well as current PET/CT machines. If you are already scheduled for a whole-body PET/CT scan, participating would mean your scan is done with this experimental scanner instead.
KrakowAges 18 years+ - NCT06241274Recruiting
Moxibustion for bladder bleeding after stem cell transplant
This study tests whether moxibustion (a traditional heat therapy) can help manage bladder bleeding that occurs after a donor stem cell transplant. If you have this condition, the trial aims to see if this gentle treatment can reduce symptoms.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–55 - NCT06241755RecruitingPhase 3
BCG to prevent bladder cancer return after surgery
