Recruiting studies4,501 total
- NCT07082920RecruitingPhase 1

Study of ManNAc for kidney diseases with proteinuria
This study tests a new drug called ManNAc for people with certain kidney diseases (FSGS, MCD, or MN) that cause protein in the urine. The goal is to see if this drug can help reduce protein loss and improve kidney health.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–115 - NCT07773051RecruitingTeam says not enrolling
Synthetic vascular graft for dialysis access
This trial tests a new synthetic blood vessel graft that connects an artery to a vein in your arm to create a reliable spot for dialysis. It's for people with kidney failure who need long-term dialysis but can't have the usual fistula made from their own blood vessels.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07107087Recruiting
Combined therapy for weight loss and muscle weakness in kidney dialysis
This study tests a program combining exercise, nutritional support, and omega-3 supplements to help kidney dialysis patients who have lost weight and muscle strength. It aims to improve appetite, energy levels, and physical function.
Antrim, County AntrimAges 18 years+ - NCT04589468Recruiting
Exercise for cancer survivors at high risk
This study tests whether a structured exercise program can help prevent cancer from coming back in people who have been treated for certain solid tumors (colorectal, ovarian, lung, or breast cancer). If you've completed surgery and adjuvant therapy within the past 2 years and are currently not exercising much, you may be eligible. Participation involves following an exercise plan and regular check-ins.
Durate, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07550985Recruiting
Probe compression after prostate biopsy to reduce complications
This study tests whether applying routine probe compression after a transrectal prostate biopsy can reduce bleeding and infection complications. It may help improve recovery and safety for men undergoing their first prostate biopsy.
Seoul, SeoulAges 18 years+ - NCT07590934RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Drug combination study for advanced prostate cancer
This study tests several new drug combinations for men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread and stopped responding to standard hormone treatments. It aims to find better ways to control the disease and improve outcomes.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18–99 - NCT06465966Recruiting
Sound-wave imaging for prostate cancer proton therapy
This trial tests a new imaging method that uses sound waves to check the accuracy of proton radiation therapy for prostate cancer. It aims to improve treatment precision while being non-invasive, and participants will need to tolerate a water-filled ultrasound pad on their skin during treatment.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18–100 - NCT07789041Recruiting
PuraStat gel for less bleeding after aquablation surgery
This study tests whether a special gel called PuraStat can reduce bleeding after aquablation surgery for prostate problems, which might allow patients to go home the same day. If you're having this surgery, the gel may help you recover faster and leave the hospital sooner.
Glenview, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07050433Recruiting
A study for men with advanced prostate cancer on a specific clinical trial
This study looks at men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who are already taking part in the SYNGERY-201 clinical trial. The goal is to understand how treatments work and how to best support patients.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07144319Recruiting
AI-assisted blue light cystoscopy for bladder cancer
This study tests a new AI tool that helps doctors see bladder tumors better during a blue light cystoscopy. You may be eligible if you are scheduled for this procedure and your doctor has prescribed a special dye (Hexvix or Cysview) to use during it.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05952258Enrolling by invitation
Magnetic stimulation for women with urine leakage
This study tests a non-invasive treatment for urinary incontinence in women. It uses magnetic pulses to strengthen pelvic floor muscles. If you leak urine when you cough or sneeze, this treatment might help.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07660055RecruitingPhase 1
Radioactive drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new radioactive drug (called 177Lu-DWJ155) that targets and kills cancer cells, along with a similar imaging agent (68Ga-DWJ155) used to see where the drug goes in the body. It is for people with certain advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard therapies.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 18 years+ - NCT04669886Recruiting
Blood test before kidney stone surgery to predict infection risk
This study looks at a blood test done before percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL), a procedure to remove kidney stones. The goal is to see whether results can predict who is more likely to develop infections or strong whole-body inflammation after surgery.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06855277RecruitingPhase 3
AAA817 with hormone therapy for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new combination treatment (AAA817 plus a hormone therapy) against standard care for men with advanced PSMA-positive prostate cancer that has spread and stopped responding to a previous hormone therapy. It may be an option if you haven't had certain prior treatments.
Homewood, AlabamaAges 18–100 - NCT07698535RecruitingPhase 2
Blood test to guide early stopping of prostate cancer therapy
This trial uses a blood test to measure tumor DNA and see if men with advanced prostate cancer can safely stop treatment with a drug called 177Lu-PSMA-617 earlier than usual, or switch to chemotherapy. It may help reduce side effects while still controlling the cancer.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT07219043RecruitingPhase 2
