Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06575257RecruitingPhase 2
Darolutamide and Hormone Therapy Before Prostate Surgery
This trial tests giving a new hormone-blocking drug (darolutamide) plus standard hormone therapy before surgery for men with high-risk prostate cancer that has not spread. The goal is to see if this approach improves outcomes.
Xi’an, ShanxiAges 18–75 - NCT07760363Recruiting
Foot exercise device for leg swelling
This study tests if using a foot pedal device while lying down can help reduce leg swelling in the hospital. It aims to see if this simple exercise can improve comfort and outcomes for people with fluid buildup.
Tulsa, OklahomaAges 18 years+ - NCT07761546Enrolling by invitation
Ai-test: microbiome nutrition for low testosterone
This study tests whether a special diet can improve symptoms of low testosterone in men. It is intended to help men with certain symptoms like a low sex drive or trouble having erections and whose blood tests show low to borderline testosterone levels.
AydinAges 30–65 - NCT07759167RecruitingPhase 1
Study of three study drugs for kidney failure patients on dialysis
This trial tests three experimental antibodies given to people with end-stage kidney disease who are on hemodialysis. It aims to see if these drugs are safe and how they affect blood clotting in this group.
Ghent, Oost-VlaanderenAges 18 years+ - NCT07763418RecruitingPhase 1
Kidney function study of golcadomide
This study tests how a new drug, golcadomide, works in people with severe kidney problems compared to those with normal kidneys. It helps see if the drug needs different dosing for patients with kidney issues.
Chandler, ArizonaAges 18–84 - NCT07763197Recruiting
Sample collection for bladder cancer research
This study is collecting blood, urine, and tissue samples from people with high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer to help develop better tests for tracking the disease. By participating, you might help improve future monitoring and treatment decisions.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07764328Recruiting
Supplement for hormone balance in women with PCOS
This trial tests a dietary supplement designed to improve hormone balance in women with PCOS or PCOS-like symptoms. It may help regulate menstrual cycles and reduce signs like acne or excess hair growth.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–40 - NCT06025240Recruiting
Better antibody monitoring after kidney transplant
This study tests a new way to monitor harmful antibodies after a kidney transplant. It may help prevent transplant rejection over time.
Liverpool, MerseysideAges 18 years+ - NCT07762911Recruiting
MRI-based prostate cancer screening follow-up
This study is a follow-up for men already in the VISIONING prostate cancer screening program. It uses MRI scans to check for prostate cancer over 5 more years, helping catch any changes early.
Basel, Canton of Basel-CityAges 50 years+ - NCT07764900Recruiting
Embolization for varicocele
This study tests a minimally invasive procedure to treat varicocele, which is an enlargement of veins in the scrotum that can cause pain or affect fertility. The procedure blocks the abnormal veins to improve symptoms and potentially fertility.
