Testing empagliflozin for heart and kidney health
This trial tests if the drug empagliflozin can improve kidney function in people hospitalized with heart failure who also develop acute kidney injury. It may help protect the kidneys while treating the heart condition.
Bangkok, PathumwanAges 18 years+ - NCT06039371RecruitingPhase 2
High dose testosterone during chemo for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests if adding high doses of testosterone to standard chemotherapy (etoposide and carboplatin) can make the chemo work better in men whose prostate cancer has stopped responding to other treatments. It aims to see if this approach can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT06052683Recruiting
Comparing radiation side effects for low-risk prostate cancer
This trial compares two types of radiation therapy (SBRT and LDR brachytherapy) for men with low-risk or favorable intermediate-risk prostate cancer. The goal is to see which treatment causes fewer side effects.
Québec, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06040125Recruiting
Exercise for frailty and muscle loss in men with prostate cancer
This trial tests a supervised exercise program to see if it can reduce frailty and muscle loss in men with metastatic prostate cancer who are on hormone therapy. It may help you become stronger and feel better during treatment.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06051058Recruiting
App for managing health after hospital discharge
This study tests a smartphone app designed to help people with multiple health conditions manage their care after leaving the hospital. It may help you feel more supported and avoid confusion during the transition from hospital to home.
