Daily Cialis Plus On-Demand Viagra for Hard-to-Treat ED
This trial tests if taking one Cialis pill daily and a Viagra pill only when needed works better for men who have tried ED pills before but they didn't help. It aims to find a new way to help men who haven't responded to standard ED treatments.
Al Mansurah, Dakahlia GovernorateAges 21 years+ - NCT07391982Recruiting
Short course MRI-guided radiation for prostate cancer
This trial tests a shorter radiation plan using an MRI machine to guide treatment. The goal is to see if two high-dose sessions work just as well as longer treatment, with fewer side effects. It is for men with low or intermediate risk prostate cancer.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT07393867RecruitingPhase 2
PSMA-guided radiation boost for prostate cancer
This trial tests a special type of radiation therapy (SBRT) that delivers a higher dose directly to the main tumor in your prostate, guided by a PSMA PET scan. It aims to improve cancer control while limiting side effects.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07394959Recruiting
Guided hydration to protect kidneys in elderly heart patients
This trial tests a new way to manage fluids during heart procedures to prevent kidney injury. It uses a special vest that measures lung fluid to guide how much hydration you get.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 60 years+ - NCT07395037Recruiting
Study of emergency hospital stays for blood in urine
This study is looking at why people are admitted to the hospital as an emergency because of blood in their urine (hematuria). If you are being cared for by the urology team and stay for at least a day, you might be able to join.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07396155RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cell therapy for diabetic kidney disease
This trial tests whether stem cells from donated umbilical cords can safely help people with type 2 diabetes who also have kidney damage. It aims to see if this therapy can improve kidney function.
YogyakartaAges 30–65 - NCT07397611RecruitingPhase 2
Neoadjuvant immunotherapy for clear cell kidney cancer
This study tests a new combination of medications (casdatifan and zimberelimab) given before surgery to remove kidney tumors in people with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). The goal is to see if this approach can help shrink the tumor or improve outcomes.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07397715Recruiting
Ultrasound signs of adenomyosis and related symptoms
This study uses ultrasound to look for signs of adenomyosis (a condition where the uterine lining grows into the muscle wall) and see how those signs relate to symptoms. It may help doctors better diagnose and treat the condition.
SosnowiecAges 18 years+ - NCT01644903Recruiting
Checking biomarkers after a liver transplant
This study follows people who are getting a liver transplant (including repeat transplants) to monitor changes in their body using test results. It may help doctors understand how patients are doing after transplant and improve care over time.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT00792155Recruiting
Register people with diagnosed ADPKD to build a kidney data resource
This trial builds a secure database by collecting information from adults who already have autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Your information can help researchers understand the condition better and improve future care.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT00389142Recruiting
Find genes linked to bladder pain and urinary symptoms
This study looks for genetic (inherited) causes of bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS), using information from people who have typical urinary symptoms. It may help doctors understand why IC/BPS happens, which could guide better future care.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 1 year+ - NCT01605266Recruiting
Study of insights in children with nephrotic syndrome
This study looks at children’s experiences and understanding of nephrotic syndrome using questionnaires. It aims to learn what helps families and children, which could improve care over time.
Brampton, OntarioAges 6 months–18 years - NCT00923221Recruiting
Donate blood for people with prostate cancer
This trial collects blood samples from adults with prostate cancer. It may help researchers learn more about the disease or how treatments work, without directly testing a new drug in the eligibility you provided.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT01331668Recruiting
Kidney transplant biobank study for donors and recipients
This trial collects and stores health information and samples related to kidney transplants from both donors and recipients. It may help researchers better understand transplant outcomes and improve care in the future.
Leuven, BEAges Any age - NCT00071526Recruiting
How the body loses vitamin C in diabetes
This study looks at why people with diabetes may lose more vitamin C in their urine than people without diabetes. By understanding this difference, researchers hope to better understand how diabetes affects the body's nutrition.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT00001238Recruiting
Understanding kidney cancer genes in families
This research study helps doctors understand inherited kidney cancers and related conditions that run in families. Researchers collect medical information and blood samples to identify genetic causes and improve how these conditions are diagnosed and treated.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2 years+ - NCT00582621Recruiting
Family history study to support genetic testing research
This study collects family and medical history to better understand inherited causes of blood cancers (like lymphoma) and related conditions. It may help researchers build genetic findings that could improve how families understand their risk and future care.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges Any age - NCT01893710Recruiting
Collecting children and adult belly fluid and tissue for kidney care research
This study collects samples from the belly (related to the peritoneal lining) to build a “biobank” for future research. It may help patients and families by improving understanding of kidney disease and kidney dialysis-related health issues.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1 day–90 years - NCT00499317Recruiting
Genetic study of chronic pelvic pain and bladder symptoms
This study looks for genetic (inherited) factors behind chronic pelvic pain and related urinary and sexual symptoms. You may be able to help researchers by providing a few samples and answering short questions, which could improve understanding of these conditions.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT00913939Recruiting
MRI-guided high-dose-rate treatment for recurrent prostate cancer
This study tests a targeted radiation approach called high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy, guided by MRI, for certain people with recurrent or higher-risk prostate cancer. It may help deliver radiation more precisely, depending on your cancer type and prior treatments.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT00872495Recruiting
Tests urine and bladder checks for bladder cancer
This trial tests non-invasive tests (using urine samples and scheduled bladder procedures) to help detect bladder cancer. It may be helpful if you are having bladder evaluation or surgery and your care team wants better ways to detect cancer without invasive testing beyond what you already need.
Burlington, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT02026388Recruiting
Kidney stone DNA and tissue sample biobank study
This study collects and stores donated samples (like blood, urine, and tissue) from people with certain rare inherited kidney stone conditions. The goal is to build a resource for future research that could help improve diagnosis and treatment.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges Any age - NCT01601171Recruiting
Genetic study of reproductive problems and cleft lip or palate
This study looks at genetic (inherited) causes of certain hormone and reproductive conditions, including Kallmann syndrome and cleft lip/palate. You might be asked for medical and family history and possibly a DNA sample, helping researchers find what drives these conditions.
Lausanne, Canton of VaudAges Any age - NCT00001372Recruiting
Understanding Lupus: Research Study at NIH
This research study aims to better understand systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), an autoimmune disease where the body's immune system attacks its own tissues. Researchers will evaluate patients with lupus, study genetic factors, and perform optional imaging tests to learn how the disease affects blood vessels and the heart.
