Track side effects after prostate cancer radiation
This study follows people with prostate cancer who receive radiation to understand what side effects and quality-of-life changes happen over time. It may help improve standard follow-up care by better tracking radiation-related toxicity.

Study for people with biopsy-proven IgA kidney disease
This trial enrolls teens and adults with biopsy-proven IgA nephropathy to help doctors learn whether a specific care approach works better for high-quality treatment. It is meant for people whose IgA kidney disease is the primary form (not caused by another illness).

Peritoneal dialysis registry study
This study enrolls people who are already on peritoneal dialysis to track care and outcomes over time. It may help improve how peritoneal dialysis is delivered in the future.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT03354416Recruiting
Imaging study of prostate cancer risk and treatment outcomes
This study looks at how prostate cancer shows up on scans and how those imaging findings relate to treatment and outcomes. It may help doctors better predict risk and guide care, especially for people with higher risk or early or suspected prostate cancer.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03281798Recruiting
Fetal bladder procedure for severe blockage in a baby boy

A study of DEG6498 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, DEG6498, for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. It may be an option if your cancer has a BRAF mutation or is a type of liver cancer called HCC.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06178354Recruiting
Freezing or ultrasound for early prostate cancer
This trial is testing whether freezing (cryotherapy) or using high-frequency ultrasound (HIFU) to destroy only the cancer spots in the prostate is safe and effective for men with early-stage prostate cancer. It's a less invasive option that targets just the tumor, not the whole prostate.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05498116RecruitingPhase 4
Montelukast to improve kidney and blood vessel function in type 1 diabetes
This trial tests whether montelukast, a medicine commonly used for allergies, can improve kidney health and blood vessel function in adults with long-term type 1 diabetes. You may join a treatment group and have kidney and circulation measurements taken over the study period.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–80 - NCT06101290Recruiting
Local therapy for progressing spots in genitourinary cancers
This trial explores whether treating only the new or growing spots of cancer (called oligoprogression) with local therapies like radiation or ablation can help you stay on your current systemic treatment longer. It is for people with prostate, bladder, or kidney cancer that has started to progress in a few places.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06432036RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Y90 Radioembolization for Early Kidney Cancer
This trial tests a treatment called Y90 radioembolization for people with early-stage kidney cancer who cannot have surgery or ablation. Tiny radioactive beads are delivered through a catheter to the tumor's blood supply to destroy it from the inside.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07119996RecruitingPhase 1
Vitamin B3 to boost immunotherapy for bladder cancer
This trial tests whether taking vitamin B3 can help immunotherapy work better for people with bladder cancer. It’s for patients who have a certain type of bladder cancer and have had a recent infection that needed antibiotics.
