Study of lutetium treatment for prostate cancer
This study looks at patients treated with a radioactive drug called 177Lu-PSMA-617 for a type of prostate cancer that has spread, stopped responding to hormone therapy, and has been treated with chemotherapy. It checks how the treatment affects the body and the tumor using images.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT06700876Recruiting
TB test study for kidney disease or transplant patients
This study looks at better ways to find hidden (subclinical) tuberculosis (TB) in people with serious kidney disease or those who have had a kidney transplant. If you have kidney failure on dialysis or have a kidney transplant, you may qualify and help improve TB detection.
BangkokAges 18 years+ - NCT06701825RecruitingPhase 4
Genetic testing before tacrolimus in kidney transplant
This study tests whether doing a simple genetic test before starting the anti-rejection drug tacrolimus can lead to better dosing and outcomes in kidney transplant patients. It also looks at whether this approach is cost-effective.
Madrid, MadridAges Any age - NCT06702449RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
UTI vaccine safety and immune response study for adults 18-64
This trial tests a new vaccine to prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs). It first checks safety and immune response in healthy adults, then in women with recent E. coli UTIs. The goal is to see if the vaccine can reduce future infections.
Lenexa, KansasAges 18–64 - NCT06704191RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
In-home chemo for bladder cancer trial
This trial tests if you can receive chemotherapy for bladder cancer at home instead of in the clinic. It is for people with early-stage bladder cancer who are already getting certain types of intravesical (inside the bladder) treatment.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06705283Recruiting
Yoga and vibration for stress incontinence in women
This trial tests whether yoga and vibration training can help women with stress urinary incontinence. It compares a group doing pelvic floor exercises with a group doing yoga and vibration training to see which works better.
IspartaAges 20–60 - NCT06705686RecruitingPhase 1
New drug for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests an experimental drug called (R)-9b for men with a specific type of advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy. The goal is to see if this drug can help control the cancer.
Madison, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT06705803Recruiting
Prostate cancer ablation registry study
This study collects information from men with prostate cancer who are having or have had a procedure to destroy prostate tumors (ablation). It aims to track outcomes over time to improve future treatments.
Hyde Park, IllinoisAges 22 years+ - NCT06705855Recruiting
Predicting kidney injury after heart surgery using skin sensors
This study tests whether a special light-based monitor on your skin (near your kidney and arm) can predict kidney injury after heart surgery. It aims to help doctors protect your kidneys during and after the procedure.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 18 years+ - NCT06706258RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing kidney injury after heart surgery with a stomach acid drug
This trial tests whether giving a common stomach acid medication (a proton pump inhibitor) before, during, and after heart surgery can help prevent acute kidney injury. If you are at moderate to high risk for kidney problems after surgery, this study may be a good fit.
Houston, TexasAges 18–90 - NCT06706362RecruitingPhase 4
Antibiotics before Bulkamid for bladder leakage
This study tests whether giving a single dose of antibiotics before a Bulkamid procedure (a gel injection for bladder leakage) helps prevent infections. It is for people with stress urinary incontinence (leakage with coughing or sneezing) who are already planning to have this treatment.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–50 - NCT06706921RecruitingPhase 4
Predicting treatment success with PET scans in prostate cancer
This study looks at whether a special PET scan can help predict how well a targeted radiation therapy (LuPSMA) works in men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread. You would get several PET scans before and after treatment to see if the scan results can forecast your outcome.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06707532Recruiting
Muscle relaxants for safer heart rhythm treatment
This study tests if giving muscle relaxants before a heart ablation procedure can protect muscles from damage. Ablation uses energy to fix irregular heartbeats, and muscle relaxants might make it safer.
Wroclaw, Lower Silesian VoivodeshipAges 18–90 - NCT04765150Recruiting
AI helps classify prostate cancer using MRI images
This trial studies whether a computer (AI) can better sort MRI results to improve prostate cancer diagnosis or classification. You may benefit by getting your multi-part MRI looked at in a new, more precise way, while helping researchers refine decision-making.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05127824RecruitingPhase 2
Kidney cancer vaccine made from your own immune cells
This Phase 2 study tests a personalized kidney cancer vaccine made from your own immune cells. It aims to help your immune system recognize and attack clear cell kidney cancer after surgery, potentially lowering the chance of the cancer coming back.
