Active monitoring for small kidney tumors
This study tests whether closely monitoring small kidney tumors (less than 4 cm) with regular imaging is a safe and effective option for people who cannot or choose not to have immediate treatment. It involves a biopsy at the start to confirm the tumor type.
NovaraAges 18 years+ - NCT06354231RecruitingPhase 2
Kidney-sparing combo for high-risk ureter cancer
This trial tests a combination of an oral targeted drug (DV) and an immunotherapy (Toripalimab) to preserve kidney function in people with high-risk upper tract urothelial cancer (UTUC) who cannot have their kidney and ureter removed. It is for patients with only one kidney, reduced kidney function, or cancer in both ureters.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT04838899Recruiting
Radiation for limited, progressing prostate cancer on abiraterone
This study tests whether a very focused type of radiation (SABR) can control a small number of prostate cancer spots that are starting to grow while you’re already on abiraterone. It may help by treating only the areas that are progressing, while other areas remain controlled.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06366529Recruiting
New MRI tech for kidney health
This trial uses a new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) method to look at kidney function. It may help doctors better understand and monitor kidney problems.
Wuhan, HubeiAges Any age - NCT06362083Recruiting
Urethral stricture surgery database study
This study collects information from patients who have had surgery for a urethral stricture, which is a narrowing in the tube that carries urine out of the body. Being part of this study helps doctors learn more about different surgical treatments and their outcomes.
Graz, StyriaAges 18 years+ - NCT06115083Recruiting
Pelvic floor training for men with chronic pelvic pain
This trial tests if pelvic floor muscle training can reduce chronic pelvic pain in men. It also looks at how well patient-reported symptoms match physical exam findings.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT04442516Recruiting
Testing kidney injury risk from cisplatin cancer treatment
This study looks at how cisplatin chemotherapy affects the kidneys. It may help doctors better predict and protect against kidney damage when patients start cisplatin.
London, OntarioAges 3 months+ - NCT06153147Recruiting
Kidney & blood pressure in childhood cancer survivors
This study looks at kidney health and blood pressure in childhood cancer survivors. If you finished high-risk cancer therapy about 3 years ago, researchers want to see how your kidneys and blood pressure are doing now.
Toronto, OntarioAges Up to 19 years - NCT06373055Recruiting
Predicting chemo response in bladder cancer with gene mapping
This trial uses a new technology called spatial transcriptomics to study how bladder cancer tumors respond to chemotherapy before surgery. It aims to find patterns that predict which patients will benefit from treatment.
SeoulAges 18–80 - NCT06372743Recruiting
Nurse-led care for kidney disease with other health issues
This study tests a nurse-led care model with doctor support for people with chronic kidney disease who also have other health problems like high blood pressure or diabetes. Its goal is to help you better manage your health and avoid complications.
SingaporeAges 21 years+ - NCT06373861Recruiting
GALAXY study: Long-term look at sex chromosome conditions
This study is following people with sex chromosome differences over time to learn more about their health and development. It is open to anyone at any age who has a confirmed genetic diagnosis.
Aurora, ColoradoAges birth–100 years - NCT06260410Recruiting
Lu-PSMA prostate cancer data study
This study collects information (like scans and blood tests) from men with prostate cancer who are about to start Lu-PSMA therapy. The goal is to track how the cancer responds and learn more about its features during treatment.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT06378645RecruitingPhase 4
Propofol vs. sevoflurane for erections during urologic surgery
This study compares two common anesthesia drugs, propofol and sevoflurane, to see which one helps prevent unwanted erections during urologic surgery. It is designed for people having transurethral procedures (like for an enlarged prostate or bladder tumor) who have at least mild erectile function.
ZurichAges 18–75 - NCT04522622RecruitingPhase 4
Teriparatide for low bone turnover in advanced kidney disease
This trial tests teriparatide (a hormone-like bone medicine) to improve bone health in people with advanced chronic kidney disease who are at risk for weak, low-turnover bone. It may help by changing how quickly your bones break down and rebuild.
AalborgAges 18–120 - NCT06384794Recruiting
ZyMōt sperm selection and its effect on embryo chromosome health
This study tests whether a sperm selection method called ZyMōt can help improve the chromosome health (ploidy) of embryos in couples who are already doing ICSI and PGT-A. It focuses on women over 37 and uses a fresh semen sample.
MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT06379009Recruiting
Home exercise program for kidney transplant recipients
This trial tests a home-based exercise program for people who have recently had a kidney transplant. It aims to help you improve your physical function and recovery after surgery.
OsloAges 18 years+ - NCT06383208Recruiting
Heart and kidney risk study for people with both diseases
This study looks at how well we can predict heart and kidney problems in people who have both coronary heart disease and chronic kidney disease. By analyzing certain markers, researchers hope to create a better risk assessment tool.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06161701Recruiting
Steroid-related diabetes in kidney disease patients
This trial looks at how steroids affect blood sugar in people with certain kidney diseases. If you are starting steroid treatment, this study may help understand and manage the risk of developing diabetes.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06389409Recruiting
Quality of life after testicular cancer surgery
This study looks at how testicular cancer and its treatments affect your quality of life and daily function. Researchers want to learn more about the long-term outcomes of surgery so they can better support patients like you.
Milan, LombardyAges 18 years+ - NCT06382233Recruiting
The PRO-FUTURE study for children with kidney blockage
This study looks at how well a certain treatment works for children with a blockage in one kidney (unilateral UPJO). It may help your child avoid more serious kidney problems.
Naples, CampaniaAges 1 day–5 years - NCT05868174RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a targeted radiation drug plus a DNA repair blocker
This early-phase trial tests whether combining a targeted radiation medicine (177Lu-TLX250) with a DNA repair–blocking drug (peposertib) can shrink advanced solid tumors. It is designed for tumors that strongly show a marker called CAIX, which helps the radiation home in and may make treatment more effective.
