Long-term safety study of HRS-5965 for IgA kidney disease
This study follows up on patients who participated in a previous trial (HRS-5965-305) testing a drug called HRS-5965 for IgA nephropathy, a kidney disease where the immune system damages the kidneys. Researchers want to check if the drug continues to be safe and well-tolerated over a longer period.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07581184RecruitingPhase 1
Targeted Radioactive Therapy for Advanced Prostate Cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests a new radioactive treatment called [225Ac]Ac-AKY-2519 in men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread and stopped responding to hormone therapy. The drug carries radioactivity directly to cancer cells to try to shrink tumors and slow disease progression.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07578324Recruiting
TENS to reduce pain during prostate biopsy
This study tests whether TENS (a gentle electrical stimulation applied to the skin) can help reduce pain when combined with numbing medicine during a prostate biopsy procedure. The goal is to see if this may make the biopsy more comfortable for patients.
Gdansk, Pomeranian VoivodeshipAges 40 years+ - NCT07578519RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized Radiation Therapy for Intermediate to High-Risk Prostate Cancer
This trial tests a new type of radiation therapy that is customized for each patient's prostate cancer. The radiation targets the tumor more precisely, which may help reduce side effects while treating the cancer effectively.
Lethbridge, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT07578532Recruiting
Nerve Stimulation for Overactive Bladder After Spinal Cord Injury
This trial tests two non-surgical treatments—magnetic and electrical nerve stimulation applied to the skin over the sacrum (base of spine)—to help control bladder overactivity in people with spinal cord injury. The goal is to reduce involuntary bladder contractions and improve bladder control.
AnkaraAges 18–65 - NCT07580196Recruiting
Comparing lymph node removal approaches in aggressive prostate cancer
This trial compares two surgical approaches for removing lymph nodes during prostate cancer surgery in men with high-risk disease on one side of the prostate. The goal is to determine whether removing lymph nodes from both sides or just one side provides better outcomes.
Rozzano, MilanoAges 18 years+ - NCT07585981Recruiting
Budesonide capsules for IgA kidney disease
This trial tests whether a special steroid capsule called budesonide can help treat IgA nephropathy, a kidney disease where your immune system damages the kidneys. You would take this medication along with standard care to see if it slows kidney damage and reduces protein in your urine.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07579195RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Consolidation therapy after EV + pembro in bladder cancer
This trial tests whether adding radiation therapy or bladder-removal surgery (consolidation) after EV + pembrolizumab helps control muscle-invasive bladder cancer that has spread. It is for people whose cancer responded to the initial drug combination.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT07583706Recruiting
Ultra-minimally invasive prostate dilation for BPH symptoms
This study tests a new, minimally invasive procedure to relieve urinary symptoms caused by an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia or BPH). The procedure gently dilates (widens) the prostate to improve urine flow and reduce bothersome symptoms like frequent urination and weak stream.
BeijingAges 40–80 - NCT07583160Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
YS247 Vaccine for Advanced Prostate Cancer
This trial tests a personalized cancer vaccine (YS247) designed to train your immune system to recognize and fight your prostate cancer. It may help slow or stop cancer growth in men whose cancer has spread and stopped responding to standard hormone treatments.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07581496Recruiting
Blood test to detect bladder cancer DNA after surgery
This study examines whether a simple blood test can detect cancer DNA (circulating tumor DNA, or ctDNA) in patients with a specific type of bladder cancer. Detecting this DNA in blood may help doctors predict how the cancer will behave and guide future treatment decisions.
