Zamto-cel cell therapy for autoimmune diseases
This early-phase trial tests a new cell therapy called Zamto-cel for people with lupus (with or without kidney inflammation) or systemic sclerosis (hardening of the skin and internal organs). It is for those whose condition has not improved enough after standard treatments.

Collecting blood cells to study prostate cancer
This study uses a blood filtering procedure (apheresis) to collect prostate cancer cells from your blood for detailed analysis. It may help researchers understand why some prostate cancers spread, which could lead to better treatments. There are three groups: men with metastatic prostate cancer, men with PSA relapse after prostatectomy, and healthy volunteers.
Umeå, Norrlands University HospitalAges 18–81 - NCT06710002Recruiting
Home program for sexual pain in menopause
This trial tests a home-based therapy program (telerehabilitation) designed to reduce pain during sex and improve sexual function in menopausal women. The program involves exercises and guidance you can do from home without needing to visit a clinic.
Barcelona, SpainAges 45–65 - NCT06710353Recruiting
Albumin before heart surgery for kids with low albumin

Seoul, SeoulAges Up to 7 years - NCT06712407RecruitingPhase 4
Extended TARPEYO treatment for IgA nephropathy
This study tests whether taking TARPEYO (budesonide) for longer than 9 months is safe and effective for adults with IgA nephropathy. It's for people who have already completed a 9-month course of TARPEYO and are on stable blood pressure medication.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06714214Recruiting
Predicting when you can stop kidney dialysis
This trial studies whether a blood test called delta C-cistatin can help doctors predict when patients can safely stop continuous kidney dialysis after acute kidney injury.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT06714409Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided fluid removal in hospitalized heart failure
This study tests whether using ultrasound-guided treatment to reduce fluid buildup in the body can help people hospitalized for worsening heart failure feel better faster. It's for adults admitted with heart failure and high BNP levels.

Study Learning from Men Treated for Prostate Cancer
This trial looks at long-term results after radiation therapy for prostate cancer. By studying PSA test results and imaging scans from men who were treated at least 10 years ago, researchers hope to learn more about side effects and how well the treatment worked over time.
Edinburgh, LothianAges Any age - NCT06714916Recruiting
AI-guided kidney tumor surgery study
This study uses artificial intelligence to help plan the best surgery for kidney tumors. You may be eligible if you have a kidney tumor that can be removed with surgery and have had a special CT scan within the past month.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06715306Recruiting
IV vs. Oral Antibiotics for Common Infections
This trial compares starting antibiotics through a vein (IV) to taking them by mouth for common infections like pneumonia, urinary tract infections, or skin infections (cellulitis). The goal is to see if oral antibiotics work just as well without the need for an IV line.
Aabenraa, Southern DenmarkAges 18 years+ - NCT06715735Recruiting
A health coaching program for metabolic syndrome with kidney disease
This trial tests if a personalized health coaching program can help people with metabolic syndrome and chronic kidney disease make lasting lifestyle changes. If you have both conditions and are not yet on dialysis, this program may help you manage your health.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18 years+ - NCT06715878Recruiting
Robot-assisted surgery for small kidney tumors without cutting blood supply
This study tests a new, gentle way to remove small kidney tumors using a robot. The goal is to avoid cutting off blood supply to the kidney and to leave healthy tissue behind. It may help you keep more kidney function while still treating the cancer.
ShanghaiAges 15–80 - NCT06716125Recruiting
Lifestyle changes for obese men with sexual and hearing issues
This trial tests whether lifestyle changes can help obese men who have both sexual difficulties and ringing in the ears. It might improve your overall health and these symptoms.
Dokki, Giza GovernorateAges 35–45 - NCT06717295Recruiting
Blood test to find cancer early and track treatment
This study uses a blood test that looks at your platelets and immune cells to find common cancers early, and for certain cancers, to monitor how well treatment is working.
RosarioAges 40–75 - NCT06717581Recruiting
Drug interaction study for older people with HIV
This study looks at how other medicines you take for conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, or cholesterol might interact with your HIV medication (Biktarvy) if you are 60 or older. The goal is to learn how to better manage your overall health.
