CAR NK cells for treatment-resistant kidney disease
This trial is testing a new therapy made from your own immune cells (called CAR NK cells) that are designed to fight a type of kidney disease that hasn't responded to standard treatments. It may be an option if you have membranous nephropathy, IgA nephropathy, or ANCA-associated vasculitis and previous treatments have failed.
ShanghaiAges 18–70 - NCT06472947Recruiting
New imaging tests to check kidney transplant health
This study is testing two new types of scans that use sound and light waves to check the health of your transplanted kidney without needing a needle biopsy. If you are already scheduled for a biopsy, the researchers want to see if these scans can give the same information in a less invasive way.
Erlangen, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT06474273RecruitingPhase 3
Treating acute rejection after a kidney or kidney-pancreas transplant
This study compares two ways of treating acute rejection (when the immune system attacks the new organ) in people who have had a kidney or combined kidney-pancreas transplant. It looks at whether adding a different approach helps protect the transplant long-term.
Lambton, New South WalesAges 2 years+ - NCT01873235Recruiting
Study for adults with confirmed polycystic kidney disease
This study enrolls adults with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) to better understand the disease and its related changes in the body. It may help researchers find improved ways to track the condition and support future treatments.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06351904RecruitingPhase 1
Testing RAG-01 for bladder cancer that returned after BCG treatment
This trial tests a new drug, RAG-01, for people with a type of bladder cancer called non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) that has come back after BCG therapy. The drug is given through a catheter into the bladder, and the study aims to see if it can help control the cancer.
St Leonards, New South WalesAges 18–75 - NCT06444815RecruitingPhase 1
Study of VET3-TGI for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental treatment called VET3-TGI, which is injected directly into tumors. It is for people with advanced solid tumors who have already tried other treatments and are looking for new options.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06451497RecruitingPhase 1
Testing ZM008 alone and with toripalimab for advanced cancers
This trial tests a new drug called ZM008, which targets a protein on some cancer cells, first alone and then combined with another drug, toripalimab, for people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06450106RecruitingPhase 1
STM-416p injection during prostate removal surgery
This trial tests an injection called STM-416p given during prostate removal surgery to see if it can help prevent prostate cancer from coming back. It may be an option for men with intermediate to high-risk prostate cancer who are already planning to have their prostate removed.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06451445Recruiting
Focal IRE treatment for intermediate-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests a new focal treatment called IRE (irreversible electroporation) that uses electrical pulses to destroy prostate cancer cells while sparing healthy tissue. It is for men with intermediate-risk prostate cancer that has not spread outside the prostate gland.
Toronto, OntarioAges 50 years+ - NCT06458322Recruiting
