- NCT07492628RecruitingPhase 1
Dual-target cell therapy for advanced bladder cancer
This trial tests a new treatment that uses your own immune cells, called CAR-NK cells, modified to attack two proteins (Nectin-4 and HER2) often found on bladder cancer cells. It is for people whose cancer has spread or cannot be removed by surgery and has not responded to standard treatments like chemotherapy or immunotherapy.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07493642Recruiting
Video health program for chronic kidney disease patients
This trial tests whether watching educational videos about exercise and staying active can improve physical fitness for people with early to moderate chronic kidney disease. You can take part from home using a smartphone, tablet, or computer.
New Taipei City, Taishan DistrictAges 20 years+ - NCT07494864Recruiting
Urinary tract health and microbiome study
This study looks at how bacteria and the immune system affect the lower urinary tract. It includes healthy volunteers and people with various urinary conditions, like infections or bladder pain.
Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT07495072Recruiting
Timing of Blad-Care during BCG therapy for bladder cancer
This trial tests whether giving Blad-Care early or later during BCG treatment changes outcomes for people with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. BCG is a standard therapy that uses a germ to help your immune system fight cancer, and Blad-Care is a device used in the bladder.
Seoul, Dongdaemun-guAges 19 years+ - NCT07498673RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing YKST02 for IgA nephropathy
This early-phase study tests a new drug called YKST02 for people with primary IgA nephropathy, a kidney disease. It aims to see if the drug is safe and if it can help reduce kidney damage.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT07498959Recruiting
Surgery vs. chemo for testicular cancer that has spread
This study compares two standard treatments—surgery to remove lymph nodes in the abdomen (RPLND) versus chemotherapy—for men with testicular cancer that has spread to a small area in the abdomen. The goal is to see which approach works better and has fewer side effects.
Gothenburg, GöteborgAges 18 years+ - NCT07499024Recruiting
TWIST score for testicular torsion in adults with scrotal pain
This study checks how well a scoring tool (TWIST) can tell if testicular torsion is likely in adults with sudden scrotal pain. If you have sudden pain in your scrotum, you may be eligible to help test this tool in the emergency room.
Linköping, Östergötland CountyAges 18–40 - NCT07499700RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of BAT4406F injection for MCD and FSGS
This trial tests an injected drug called BAT4406F for people with Minimal Change Disease (MCD) or Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), two types of kidney diseases that cause swelling and high protein in urine. It aims to see if the drug can help patients who have responded well to steroid therapy in the past.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07500701RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two radiation schedules for rising PSA after prostate surgery
This trial is testing two types of radiation therapy for men whose PSA level rises after prostate removal, but without clear signs of cancer spread on a PSMA PET scan. The goal is to see which radiation schedule works better to control the cancer.
Seoul, Gangnam-guAges 20 years+ - NCT07501195Recruiting
Nutrition, Inflammation, Kidney Health in Older Hospital Patients
This study looks at nutrition, inflammation, kidney function, aging, body composition, and hydration in older patients who are hospitalized. It aims to understand how these factors affect recovery and health.
CopenhagenAges 65 years+ - NCT07504835Recruiting
Exercise program for older men with prostate cancer
This study tests whether a special exercise program done with other men (via video calls) can help older men with prostate cancer feel less lonely. You'd be placed in one of three groups and attend regular exercise sessions from home.
Portland, OregonAges 65 years+ - NCT07504991Recruiting
Radiofrequency and ultrasound for pain after childbirth
This trial tests whether combining radiofrequency with ultrasound can reduce pain during sex after having a baby. It may help women who have had moderate to severe pain for a while after a vaginal delivery.
Tarragona, TARRAGONAAges 18–50 - NCT07507201RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Car-T cells for autoimmune diseases like lupus
This trial tests whether specially-engineered immune cells (CAR-T cells) can help people with certain autoimmune diseases that haven't gotten better with standard treatments. The cells are designed to target and remove faulty B cells that are causing the immune system to attack the body.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 3 years+ - NCT07510334RecruitingPhase 2
VSV Virus Plus Immunotherapy for Advanced Kidney Cancer
This trial tests a combination of a special virus (VSV-IFNβ-NIS) with two immunotherapy drugs (ipilimumab and nivolumab) for people with advanced clear cell kidney cancer that hasn't been treated yet. It aims to see if this approach helps shrink tumors or slow the disease.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT07511283Recruiting
Calciphylaxis study in kidney disease patients
This study looks at a rare condition called calciphylaxis (hardening of small blood vessels) that can happen in people with chronic kidney disease. It aims to learn more about what causes it and how to help those affected.
OdenseAges 18 years+ - NCT07514143Recruiting
Bladder Cancer Detection Study Using Urine Test
This study tests a new urine-based test called EpiCheck to help detect bladder cancer. You'll provide urine samples before or during a bladder procedure you're already scheduled to have, and researchers will see how well the test works.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 22 years+ - NCT07514650Recruiting
Citrate Blood Thinner Safety in Critical Kidney Care
This study tests whether a specific blood-thinning method using citrate works safely and effectively in critically ill patients whose kidneys have suddenly stopped working and need a special filtering machine. Researchers want to confirm that this approach prevents dangerous blood clots while keeping patients safe.
Barcelona, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07514897Recruiting
Urine test to detect bladder cancer using CREPT protein
This study tests whether a protein called CREPT found in urine can help doctors diagnose bladder cancer or monitor patients who already have it. Researchers will compare urine samples from people with bladder cancer, people with other bladder conditions, and healthy volunteers.
Beijing, Chaoyang DistrictAges 18–75 - NCT07516886Recruiting
Early PSA levels after prostate surgery and cancer outcomes
This study looks at how PSA (a blood marker) levels measured shortly after prostate removal surgery can predict whether cancer comes back. Researchers hope this helps doctors identify patients who may need closer monitoring or additional treatment after surgery.
Kaunas, KaunoAges 18 years+ - NCT07516964Recruiting
Studying autoimmune kidney disease in children and adults
This study collects medical information and samples from patients with podocytopathy—a type of autoimmune kidney disease that causes protein leakage into urine. Researchers will analyze your medical records and any blood or kidney tissue samples you've already had to better understand the disease and find better treatments.
