Two chemotherapy drugs for bladder cancer after BCG
This study tests a combination of two chemotherapy drugs, mitomycin-C and gemcitabine, given directly into the bladder for people with high-risk bladder cancer that hasn't been controlled with BCG therapy. It's an option for those who can't or don't want to have their bladder removed.

Quality of life after testicular cancer surgery
This study looks at how testicular cancer and its treatments affect your quality of life and daily function. Researchers want to learn more about the long-term outcomes of surgery so they can better support patients like you.
Milan, LombardyAges 18 years+ - NCT06389786Recruiting
Using a new PET scan to find cancer spread before prostate surgery
This trial tests a special PET/MRI scan that may help doctors see if prostate cancer has spread to nearby lymph nodes before surgery. It could help guide treatment decisions for men with high-risk prostate cancer.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 30–85 - NCT06391034RecruitingPhase 2
MRI scan with pyruvate for prostate cancer
This trial uses a special MRI scan (with hyperpolarized pyruvate, a naturally occurring substance) to look at prostate cancer in more detail. It aims to help doctors understand how the cancer is responding to treatment or how it might behave.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06392295RecruitingPhase 2
PSMA-Guided Radiation for Limited Prostate Cancer Return
This trial tests whether targeted radiation to the lymph nodes in the belly can help men whose prostate cancer has returned in just a few spots after prior radiation. You must have had a PSMA PET/CT scan showing the cancer is limited to pelvic or belly lymph nodes.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06392737Recruiting
AI-guided MRI vs routine MRI for prostate biopsy
This study tests whether an artificial intelligence tool for MRI can improve the results of targeted prostate biopsy, compared to the usual method. It could help diagnose prostate cancer more accurately with fewer needles.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 45–85 - NCT06394570RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Enfortumab vedotin and radiation for bladder cancer
This trial tests a combination of a targeted drug (enfortumab vedotin) and focused radiation before surgery to remove the bladder. It is for people with muscle-invasive bladder cancer who cannot take cisplatin chemotherapy.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06394830RecruitingPhase 2
Testing VNX001 for bladder pain syndrome
This study tests a new treatment (VNX001) for people with interstitial cystitis or bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS). You must have already taken part in an earlier study of this drug to join. The goal is to see if it safely reduces bladder pain.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06395519RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of ETX-19477 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental drug called ETX-19477 for people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to other treatments. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective, especially for those with certain genetic changes (BRCA2 mutations).
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06397287Recruiting
Urology patient feedback study
This study gathers information from urology patients using digital tools like email or apps. Your feedback could help improve care for others with urology conditions.
Graz, StyriaAges 18 years+ - NCT06397456Recruiting
Kidney education program for Black patients in the hospital
This study tests whether a special education and referral program helps Black patients with advanced kidney disease learn about their treatment options before they need dialysis or a transplant. If you join, you will get extra support while you're in the hospital.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–70 - NCT06397755Recruiting
Study of patients with prostate biopsy or prostate removal surgery
This study looks at patients who have had a prostate biopsy or surgery to remove the prostate (radical prostatectomy). It aims to learn more about these procedures and how patients are doing.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06397703RecruitingPhase 2
Testosterone Blockers and Radiation for Prostate Cancer
This trial tests whether adding hormone therapy (ADT) to stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) works better than SBRT alone for men with a specific type of prostate cancer called 'unfavorable intermediate risk.' The goal is to see if the combination helps control the cancer better.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06398314Recruiting
Palliative radiation for pelvic tumor symptoms
This trial tests a type of radiation to help relieve symptoms like pain, bleeding, or other discomfort from tumors in the pelvic area. It is for people whose cancer has spread or cannot be cured, and who are not able to have stronger treatments.
ÅlesundAges 18 years+ - NCT06398639Recruiting
Using genetic risk and MRI to find dangerous prostate cancer
This study uses a genetic risk score and a special MRI scan to find prostate cancers that are more likely to be dangerous. It aims to see if combining these tests can better identify which men need a biopsy.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 40–69 - NCT06398613Recruiting
Using PSMA PET scan before prostate cancer surgery
This trial is testing whether a special scan (PSMA PET/CT) before surgery can help doctors decide if you need to remove lymph nodes. It is for men with high-risk prostate cancer who are already planning to have robot-assisted prostate removal.
