Flexible ureteroscopy with dusting for lower kidney stones
This trial tests if using a flexible tube with a laser (FURS) plus special suction (FANS) is better for breaking up and removing stones from the lower part of the kidney. It may help you if you have stones there and are scheduled for a procedure.
ZagazigAges 18 years+ - NCT07239570RecruitingPhase 4
Using biomarkers to personalize kidney disease treatment
This study tests if matching treatments to your specific kidney disease markers can better protect your kidneys. It looks at how well Finerenone, Dapagliflozin, and Semaglutide work alone or in a sequence.
HerlevAges 18–75 - NCT07240610Recruiting
Radiation and immunotherapy for kidney cancer that has spread
This trial tests whether adding a special type of radiation to your current immunotherapy can help shrink kidney cancer tumors that have stopped responding or are stable. The goal is to see if the radiation can boost the immune system's ability to fight cancer elsewhere in the body.
Chūō, YamanashiAges 18 years+ - NCT07242014Recruiting
New PET scan for prostate cancer
This trial tests a new PET scan called XACP3 to see if it can find prostate cancer as well as the standard PSMA PET scan. You could help by having both scans to compare them.
Xiamen, FujianAges 18–80 - NCT07243834Recruiting
Digital exercise program for prostate cancer patients on hormone therapy
This trial tests a digital exercise program to see if it helps men with prostate cancer stay active while on hormone therapy. You may be able to join if you're starting or already on hormone therapy and also getting radiation therapy.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07245082Recruiting
Type 2 diabetes patient study
This study looks at people with type 2 diabetes to understand their health. If you join, you'll have simple measurements taken like height, weight, and grip strength.
Taipei, Zhongzheng DistAges 18 years+ - NCT07245745Recruiting
Comparing two types of radiotherapy for prostate cancer
This trial compares adaptive radiotherapy (which adjusts to changes in your body) with conventional radiotherapy for prostate cancer. It aims to see which approach leads to better patient-reported outcomes.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT07246837Recruiting
Smarter antibiotic use for urinary tract infections in primary care
This trial tests a new way to check urine tests and prescribe antibiotics more carefully for adults with a suspected urinary tract infection (UTI). It aims to make sure you get the right treatment and avoid unnecessary antibiotics.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07246967Recruiting
Preventing infection after kidney stone surgery
This trial tests if using a special suction tube during surgery to remove kidney stones can lower the risk of infection. It is for people with small to medium-sized stones in the kidney or upper ureter.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07247058RecruitingPhase 4
Testing Isturisa for mild cortisol excess from adrenal tumors
This study tests whether a drug called Isturisa (osilodrostat) can safely lower mild cortisol excess in people with adrenal tumors. It aims to help patients avoid the long-term effects of too much cortisol.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07247175RecruitingPhase 2
Testing force feedback in robotic prostate cancer surgery
This trial is looking at whether a new force-feedback feature in the da Vinci robotic system helps surgeons learn and operate more safely when removing the prostate for prostate cancer.
SoeulAges 19 years+ - NCT07247136Recruiting
30-Minute Nerve Stimulation for Urgency Incontinence
This trial tests a new device that stimulates the sacral nerve (a nerve in your lower back that controls the bladder) for just 30 minutes. It may help reduce sudden, strong urges to urinate that cause leakage, without the need for daily medications.
West Columbia, South CarolinaAges 22 years+ - NCT07247617Recruiting
Flexible vs semi-rigid for upper ureter stones
This trial compares two types of ureteroscopes (flexible and semi-rigid) to see which works better for removing stones in the upper part of the tube that carries urine from the kidney to the bladder. It may help you if you have a single stone there that's no bigger than 20 mm.
Asyut, Asyut GovernorateAges 18 years+ - NCT07248371Recruiting
Validating multi-omics for metabolic syndrome diseases
This study is testing a new way to look at health information (multi-omics) to better understand conditions related to metabolic syndrome, like diabetes or heart disease. It may help doctors find more personalized treatments.
TaoyuanAges 20 years+ - NCT07248865RecruitingPhase 1
Study of CLYM116 in healthy volunteers
This study tests a new drug called CLYM116 in healthy adults to see how safe it is and how the body processes it. It may help researchers learn more before testing it in people with certain medical conditions.
BrisbaneAges 18–60 - NCT07249281Recruiting
New MRI scan for better prostate cancer detection
This study tests a new type of MRI scan (called TDDMRI) that looks at tiny details in prostate tissue to better detect cancer. If you are already getting a prostate MRI, this extra scan may help doctors find cancer more accurately.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT07250542RecruitingPhase 2
Fasudil with immunotherapy for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a combination of fasudil hydrochloride and immunotherapy for men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer that has stopped responding to chemotherapy and hormone therapy. The goal is to see if this new approach can help control the cancer.
NanjingAges 18–85 - NCT06527872Recruiting
Study of belimumab for lupus kidney disease in real life
This study looks at how well belimumab (Benlysta) works in real-world settings for adults with lupus nephritis (kidney inflammation caused by lupus). If you started belimumab in the past 6–24 months, the researchers will review your medical records to see how your kidney health has changed.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07000084RecruitingPhase 3
Testing gemcitabine with BCG for returning bladder cancer
This trial tests whether adding a chemotherapy drug called gemcitabine to the usual BCG therapy can help prevent bladder cancer from coming back again. If you have had BCG before and your cancer returned, this study might offer a more effective treatment option.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06394869Recruiting
Testing a urine test to reduce the need for bladder scopes for invisible blood in urine
This study tests a new urine test called Cxbladder Triage Plus. The goal is to see if using this test can help some people avoid an unnecessary cystoscopy (a scope placed into the bladder) when they have invisible blood in their urine.
Homewood, AlabamaAges 18–88 - NCT06085664RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Immunotherapy before prostate cancer surgery
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug (REGN5678) given before surgery to men with high-risk prostate cancer that hasn't spread. The goal is to see if the drug can shrink or control the cancer before the prostate is removed.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05852041RecruitingEarly Phase 1
PET-MRI scan to find prostate cancer before active surveillance
This early-phase study tests a special PET-MRI scan using rhPSMA-73 to better detect prostate cancer areas in men who would otherwise choose active surveillance. It may help doctors see where (and how much) cancer is present before deciding on treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06741072RecruitingPhase 1
Vaccine to prevent EBV-related cancer in transplant patients
This trial tests a vaccine (OSU-2131) that may help prevent cancers caused by the Epstein-Barr virus in people waiting for an organ transplant. The vaccine is designed to train your immune system to fight the virus.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–65 - NCT03412877RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized immune-cell therapy for advanced metastatic cancers
