Prostate cancer screening with a finger-prick test
This trial is testing a simple finger-prick blood test to measure prostate-specific antigen (PSA) for prostate cancer screening. It aims to make screening easier and more accessible.
Düsseldorf, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 45–70 - NCT07726992RecruitingPhase 3
New drug plus BCG for high-risk bladder cancer
This study tests a new immunotherapy drug (SHR-1501) combined with standard BCG therapy for people with a specific type of early bladder cancer (papillary-only, high-risk). The goal is to see if the combination helps prevent cancer from returning better than BCG alone.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07728474Recruiting
Herbal supplement to prevent bladder cancer recurrence
This trial tests a herbal formula called LCS103 to see if it can help prevent bladder cancer from coming back after a tumor has been removed. It is for people with non-invasive bladder cancer that has been fully taken out by surgery.
HaifaAges 18 years+ - NCT07725796RecruitingPhase 1
Study of UGN-501 for recurrent bladder cancer
This study tests an experimental medicine called UGN-501 given directly into the bladder. It is for people whose bladder cancer has come back despite previous treatments, such as BCG therapy. The goal is to find the best dose and see how safe and effective it is.
Queen Creek, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07725497RecruitingPhase 2
Luspatercept for anemia from chronic kidney disease
This trial tests a drug called luspatercept to see if it can raise hemoglobin levels in people with anemia caused by chronic kidney disease. It's for those whose current treatments aren't working well or who cannot use them.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07729150Recruiting
Wearable device study for hormone therapy hot flashes
This study tests whether a wearable cooling or heating device can help reduce hot flashes caused by hormone therapy for prostate cancer. You will use the device for 12 weeks and report how often and how much your hot flashes bother you.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07730749Recruiting
Long-term follow-up of cystocele repair with collagen mesh
This study looks at the long-term results of a surgery to repair a cystocele (a type of bladder prolapse) using a special mesh. It may help women who had this procedure to understand how well it works over time.
Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges 18 years+ - NCT07730996Recruiting
Nutrition care for hospital patients
This trial tests a new way of providing nutrition care to patients while they are in the hospital. It aims to see if having a dietitian closely involved in patient care can improve their nutritional health. If you are admitted to a participating ward, you might be included.
HerningAges 18 years+ - NCT07724327Enrolling by invitation
AI assistant for peritoneal dialysis decisions
This study tests whether a special AI tool can help doctors make better decisions about peritoneal dialysis (a type of kidney treatment). You will use the AI to answer clinical scenarios and your answers will be compared to others.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges Any age - NCT07724028Enrolling by invitation
Nerve stimulation during robotic prostate surgery
This study tests whether stimulating specific nerves during robotic prostate surgery helps preserve erectile function. If you are scheduled for prostate surgery and have normal erections now, this research may help improve your recovery of erections afterward.
LjubljanaAges 18 years+ - NCT07726602Recruiting
Tumor DNA blood test for muscle-invasive bladder cancer
This trial uses a blood test to look for small pieces of tumor DNA (ctDNA) after treatment for muscle-invasive bladder cancer. It aims to find out if the test can detect leftover or returning cancer earlier, helping guide next steps.
Portland, OregonAges 18 years+ - NCT07729683Recruiting
Testing wakame seaweed for kidney disease patients
This study tests whether eating a daily dose of wakame seaweed can lower certain waste products (AGEs) in your blood that build up with kidney disease. It's for people with moderate chronic kidney disease who are already on standard protective medications.
La RochelleAges 18–90 - NCT07727460Recruiting
Pelvic floor ultrasound during weightlifting
This study uses ultrasound to see how pelvic floor muscles change during rest and while lifting weights. It helps understand how these muscles work for people who squat and deadlift.
Langley, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07727837Recruiting
Pelvic floor health in children with poop problems
This trial looks at how defecation disorders (trouble pooping or soiling) in children affect their quality of life, walking, balance, and physical function. It aims to understand the links between these problems and the pelvic floor muscles.
Izmir, BornovaAges 6–18 - NCT07730203Recruiting
Better prostate scans without a catheter
This study tests a new type of CT scan that can see the urethra without needing a tube (catheter). If you're getting radiation for prostate cancer, this might make your treatment planning more comfortable and precise.
Rozzano, MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT05946824RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation for prostate cancer that returned after surgery
This trial tests a new way of delivering radiation for prostate cancer that has come back after prostate surgery. It may help control the cancer by targeting the “prostate bed” area or nearby lymph nodes where it returned.
Rochester, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06630377Recruiting
Testing GOS for lowering high uric acid
This study tests whether a prebiotic called GOS (a type of dietary fiber) can help lower high uric acid levels naturally, without medication. If you have high uric acid and want a non-drug option, this trial may be a good fit.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT06631404Recruiting
Ultrasound test for lupus kidney activity
This trial uses an ultrasound to measure kidney blood flow in people with lupus kidney disease. The goal is to see if this simple test can tell how active the disease is, which might help doctors adjust treatment without needing frequent biopsies.
SohagAges 18–50 - NCT06630962Recruiting
Financial help for newly diagnosed cancer patients
This study looks at whether getting help with financial issues (like insurance and costs) can reduce the money worries and problems that come with cancer treatment. It is for people newly diagnosed with breast, colorectal, or prostate cancer who haven't started treatment yet.
Ile-IfeAges 18 years+ - NCT02647827RecruitingPhase 2
Acupuncture or metformin for insulin resistance in PCOS
This study tests whether acupuncture or the diabetes medicine metformin can improve insulin resistance in women with PCOS. It may help with hormone-related symptoms and metabolic health, comparing the two approaches against usual care for non-PCOS controls.
BeijingAges 18–40 - NCT05129605Recruiting
Prostate cancer genetic risk screening study for men
This study looks at your personal and family risk for prostate cancer and helps decide who should have extra screening like MRI. It may help you find cancer earlier if you are at higher genetic risk.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 35–74 - NCT05942625RecruitingPhase 1
Study of an experimental drug in healthy adults
This Phase 1 trial tests how safe and tolerable an experimental medicine (HS-10390) is in healthy adults, and how the body processes it. It is not for people with an illness, but for healthy volunteers to help researchers understand the drug before future studies.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–45 - NCT06570187RecruitingPhase 4
Dexmedetomidine for kidney protection in sepsis
This trial tests if dexmedetomidine, a sedative, can help protect the kidneys of critically ill patients with sepsis who develop acute kidney injury (a sudden drop in kidney function). It is for adults in the ICU who need a breathing tube or mask within 48 hours of kidney injury.
CairoAges 18–90 - NCT07720284RecruitingPhase 3
Testing new drugs for high-risk bladder cancer after surgery
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (Dato-DXd plus rilvegostomig) against standard treatments for people with high-risk, muscle-invasive bladder cancer that has been surgically removed. The goal is to see if the new treatment reduces the chance of the cancer coming back.
