Using a kidney toxin level to predict heart effects in AKI
This study looks at whether measuring indoxyl sulfate, a substance that can build up when kidneys are injured, can help predict how blood vessels and the heart are affected during acute kidney injury (AKI). It may help doctors understand who is at higher risk of heart-related problems while AKI is happening.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT07045467RecruitingPhase 1
Remimazolam for sedation during kidney transplant
This study tests whether a sedative called remimazolam works well and safely for people getting a kidney transplant. It might help you stay calm and comfortable during surgery.

Study of MRG003 plus HX008 for EGFR-positive penile cancer
This trial tests two drugs, MRG003 and HX008, as a first treatment for men with EGFR-positive penile squamous cell carcinoma that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. The goal is to see if the combination shrinks tumors or delays growth.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18 years+ - NCT07054346RecruitingPhase 1
Radioactive drugs before prostate surgery for high-risk prostate cancer
This trial compares two radioactive drugs (177Lu-PSMA-617 and 225Ac-PSMA-617) given before prostate removal surgery in men with high-risk prostate cancer that has not spread far. The goal is to see which drug is better at shrinking the tumor and reducing the chance of cancer coming back.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07050277RecruitingPhase 3
Morphine for bladder issues after knee replacement
This study tests whether adding morphine to spinal anesthesia can reduce trouble urinating after a second knee replacement surgery. It may help you avoid needing a catheter after surgery.
Toronto, OntarioAges 21 years+ - NCT07052539Recruiting
Kidney disease in heart failure with obesity
This study looks at how kidney disease relates to a type of heart failure (called HFpEF) that often happens in people with obesity. It will help doctors understand this connection better.
Jackson, MississippiAges 18–75 - NCT07048496Recruiting
At-home BCG treatment for bladder cancer with support
This study is testing a way for people with early-stage bladder cancer to receive their BCG treatment at home, with extra support. It aims to see if doing treatment at home is safe and helpful for patients.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07047495Recruiting
Personalized radiation therapy for early breast cancer
This trial is testing a way to personalize radiation therapy for people with early-stage breast cancer. It may help make treatment more precise and reduce side effects.
Milan, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT07050433Recruiting
A study for men with advanced prostate cancer on a specific clinical trial
This study looks at men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who are already taking part in the SYNGERY-201 clinical trial. The goal is to understand how treatments work and how to best support patients.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07053826Recruiting
Penile lengthening before penile implant surgery
This trial tests a special penile lengthening procedure done just before placing an inflatable penile implant. It may help men with erectile dysfunction who are already planning to get an implant get a better cosmetic result.
