Abemaciclib and cabozantinib for advanced kidney cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two oral drugs (abemaciclib and cabozantinib) for people with advanced kidney cancer (clear cell type) who have already tried at least two other treatments, including an immunotherapy and a targeted therapy, but their cancer kept growing. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow the cancer.

This trial tests if having fewer activity restrictions after sling surgery helps women recover better. It compares standard restrictions with a more relaxed set of rules for daily life.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18–99 - NCT06840210Recruiting
Decision support for acute kidney injury in the emergency room
This study tests a decision-support tool to help emergency room doctors better detect and manage acute kidney injury (a sudden drop in kidney function). It may lead to earlier treatment and better outcomes for patients.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06840314Recruiting
Vibration vs traditional therapy for painful sex
This trial compares a vibrating vaginal device to standard therapy for women with pain during sex. It aims to find a more effective and comfortable treatment option.
