Choices about life-saving treatment for kidney failure patients
This trial looks at what patients with kidney failure prefer for life-sustaining treatments (like whether they would want certain life-prolonging care). Your answers may help improve how future care plans are discussed and tailored to patients’ wishes.

MicroRNA study for small testicular or post-chemo masses
This study looks at tiny molecules called microRNAs in the blood of people with either small testicular tumors (less than 2 cm) or leftover lymph node masses after chemotherapy for testicular cancer. The goal is to see if these microRNAs can help guide treatment decisions.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT06636682RecruitingPhase 2
Vaccine for men with high-risk prostate cancer after surgery
This trial tests a personalized vaccine (FK-PC101) given after prostate removal surgery for men with high-risk prostate cancer. It aims to see if the vaccine can help prevent the cancer from coming back without the need for additional hormone therapy or radiation.
Chicago, IllinoisAges Any age - NCT05558007RecruitingPhase 2
Topical treatment trial after prostate surgery in men
This Phase 2 study tests how safe and effective a topical medicine (BZ371A) is for men after prostate surgery, with the goal of improving sexual recovery and monitoring side effects. You may be able to join if you meet specific timing, health, and medication criteria after radical prostatectomy.
Belo HorizonteAges 40–65 - NCT07694869RecruitingPhase 1
Study of ammoxetine tablets in people with moderate kidney problems
This trial tests how a new drug called ammoxetine works in people with moderate kidney impairment compared to those with normal kidney function. It aims to find the right dose and understand how the drug is processed by the body.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT07694544RecruitingPhase 1
Oral EC5026 study in people with kidney disease
This trial tests a medication called EC5026 in people with and without chronic kidney disease (CKD) to see how the body handles it. It helps understand if dose adjustments are needed for people with impaired kidney function.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 55 years+ - NCT06652022Recruiting
Radiation plus drugs vs drugs alone for limited spread bladder cancer
This trial tests whether adding targeted radiation to standard drug therapy can help people with a limited number of bladder or urinary tract cancer metastases. It's for those whose cancer has spread to a few spots that can be treated with full coverage radiation.
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT06652009Recruiting
Radiation vs surgery for kidney and ureter cancer
This study compares two treatments for cancer of the kidney pelvis or ureter: radiation therapy (using high-energy beams) versus surgery. It is for people who cannot have surgery for medical reasons and want to see if radiation could be a good alternative.
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT07691697Recruiting
Targeted radiation for limited prostate cancer spread
This trial tests whether giving focused radiation to a small number of growing prostate cancer spots can help control the disease while you continue your current systemic treatment. It may delay the need to switch treatments and is for people whose cancer has spread to only a few places.
Zamość, Lublin VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT07690579Recruiting
Prostate cancer disparities study
This study looks at how social, lifestyle, and other factors affect prostate cancer outcomes. It enrolls men who have chosen to have their prostate removed (radical prostatectomy) and agreed to join a biobank.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07693647Enrolling by invitation
Pelvic floor recovery after prostate cancer surgery
This study looks at how pelvic floor function and emotional well-being are affected at least one year after prostate removal surgery for prostate cancer. It aims to understand long-term outcomes to help improve care.
Valencia, ValenciaAges 18 years+ - NCT07694791Recruiting
Gut health supplements for people on peritoneal dialysis
This trial tests whether taking probiotic and prebiotic supplements can improve gut health in people receiving peritoneal dialysis at home. It may help with digestion and overall well-being.
Monterrey, Nuevo LeónAges 18 years+ - NCT07692789Recruiting
Phone reminders before a bladder test
This study tests if phone calls and MyChart reminders help women prepare for a urodynamics test (a test that checks how your bladder works). You may be able to take part if you are a woman scheduled for this test at certain Ohio State clinics.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07690917Recruiting
New PET scanner study for people with cancer
This study tests a new PET scanner that may give clearer or more detailed pictures of cancer. It is for people who are already scheduled for a PET-CT scan at Memorial Sloan Kettering, and it could help doctors see cancer more precisely.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07690202Recruiting
Living with kidney disease without dialysis or transplant
This study looks at the experiences of women of childbearing age who have chronic kidney disease but are not on dialysis or have not had a kidney transplant. The goal is to understand how the disease affects their lives.
CaenAges 18 years+ - NCT07689578RecruitingPhase 4
Testing a new immunotherapy for chronic kidney transplant rejection
This study tests a new treatment called BiTE (a type of immunotherapy that helps your immune cells attack harmful antibodies) for people whose transplanted kidney is being damaged by chronic active antibody-mediated rejection. The goal is to see if it can safely slow or stop this damage.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18 years+ - NCT07689656RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
PET imaging study for prostate cancer using a new tracer
This trial tests a new radioactive tracer called ELI421 to see how well it works for PET imaging in people with prostate cancer. It may help doctors find cancer more clearly.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–80 - NCT07690306Enrolling by invitation
AI study to improve prostate cancer diagnosis with MRI and PSMA PET scans
This study is testing whether artificial intelligence can better predict prostate cancer by combining two types of scans (MRI and PSMA PET) along with your medical history, PSA, and biopsy results. If you have already had these scans and a biopsy, your information may help researchers develop a more accurate, non-invasive diagnostic tool.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07693959RecruitingPhase 3
RC48 plus gemcitabine before bladder cancer surgery
This trial tests a combination of an antibody-drug conjugate (RC48) plus chemotherapy (gemcitabine) given before bladder removal surgery. It is for people with HER2-positive bladder cancer that has grown into the muscle layer.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT07694752Recruiting
MRI study of prostate and urinary sphincter
This study uses special MRI scans to look at the muscle ring that controls urination and the base of the prostate. It may help doctors understand how these areas change with conditions like enlarged prostate or prostate cancer treatment.
Taizhou, JiangsuAges 15–90 - NCT07691827Recruiting
Study of sperm problems linked to inherited genetic mutation
This study is investigating a specific genetic mutation in the MT-ND1 gene that can be passed from mother to son and may cause sperm production problems. It compares men with severe sperm issues to those with normal sperm production to understand the genetic cause.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges Any age - NCT06655259RecruitingPhase 2
TURP with standard therapy for metastatic prostate cancer
This trial tests whether adding a surgery called TURP (transurethral resection of the prostate) to the usual hormone therapy and chemotherapy can help men with metastatic prostate cancer that has spread to lymph nodes, bone, or other organs. The surgery helps relieve urinary symptoms and may improve how well the cancer responds to treatment.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06584279Recruiting
MRI-targeted biopsy for first-time prostate cancer screening
