Dokki, Giza GovernorateAges 30–50 - NCT06784986RecruitingPhase 4
Low-pressure gas system for robotic prostate surgery
This trial tests whether a special gas system (Airseal) used with very low air pressure during robotic prostate removal surgery can help patients recover better. It compares this to standard methods for men with prostate cancer.
Salvador, Estado de BahiaAges 18–65 - NCT06785441Recruiting
Decision aid for older men considering active surveillance for prostate cancer
This study tests a decision aid to help men aged 65 and older with early-stage prostate cancer decide whether to choose active surveillance (monitoring the cancer instead of immediate treatment). The goal is to see if the tool helps men and their care partners make a more informed choice.
Houston, TexasAges 65 years+ - NCT06785519RecruitingEarly Phase 1
CAR-T cell therapy for stubborn lupus kidney disease
This trial tests a new treatment using your own immune cells (called CAR-T cells) that are modified to target two proteins (CD19 and BCMA) on lupus cells. It is for people with lupus nephritis (kidney inflammation) that has not improved after trying multiple standard treatments.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06786416Recruiting
Monitoring to prevent kidney injury after heart surgery
This trial is testing a new monitoring system that tracks blood flow and other vital signs during heart surgery to help prevent kidney damage afterward.
San Donato Milanese, MilanoAges 18 years+ - NCT06787053Recruiting
MRI imaging for oxygen-starved tumors
This study uses MRI scans to find areas of low oxygen in tumors and see if adjusting radiation treatment can help. It is open to adults with bladder, cervix, or prostate cancer who are getting radiation therapy at the Christie NHS Foundation Trust.
ManchesterAges 18 years+ - NCT06788886Recruiting
Breathing practice for brain and mental health in cancer and other illnesses
This study tests a simple breathing practice to see if it can improve brain health and mental well-being for people with cancer, multiple sclerosis, or their caregivers. You will do light exercises and answer questionnaires, and some participants will also have an MRI brain scan.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–85 - NCT06789705Recruiting
MDMA for people with vasopressin deficiency
This study tests whether a low dose of MDMA, compared to a placebo, changes oxytocin levels in people with a condition called arginine vasopressin deficiency (also known as central diabetes insipidus). The goal is to understand the role of oxytocin in this condition and explore potential treatment insights.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT06792799RecruitingEarly Phase 1
CAR-NK cells for B-cell autoimmune diseases
This early phase trial tests a new treatment made from immune cells (CAR-NK cells) that target and destroy overactive B cells. It may help people with lupus, certain kidney diseases, or nephrotic syndrome that hasn't responded to standard therapies.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 3 years+ - NCT06793540Recruiting
Self-posture therapy for leftover kidney stone pieces
This trial tests whether simple posture exercises you can do at home can help clear small leftover stone pieces from the lower part of your kidney after standard stone treatment. It could spare you from needing more procedures.
LyonAges 18–70 - NCT06794203Recruiting
Does hyperthyroidism affect kidney transplant success?
This study looks at whether having an overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism) soon after a kidney transplant might affect how well the new kidney works. If you had a kidney transplant at this center and had thyroid tests within the first month, researchers will review your records.
Bologna, BOAges 18 years+ - NCT06794190Recruiting
Understanding liver health in Turner syndrome
This study aims to understand why some women with Turner syndrome develop liver problems. Researchers will analyze factors that may contribute to liver changes, which could lead to better monitoring and care.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT06794593RecruitingPhase 2
