Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06989359RecruitingPhase 2
Study of ADX-038 for complement-related kidney disease
This trial tests an experimental drug called ADX-038 for people with certain types of kidney disease that are driven by the complement system (a part of the immune system). The study aims to see if ADX-038 can help slow down or improve kidney function.
Doral, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05153967Recruiting
Study late effects after sickle cell curative treatments
This study looks at long-term health effects after curative treatments for sickle cell disease, such as bone marrow transplant. Your participation helps researchers understand what changes over time after treatment, and what might need monitoring or care.

Comparing two pain blocks for pediatric testicle surgery
This trial compares two types of numbing injections for pain after surgery to fix an undescended testicle in young boys. It aims to find which injection works better for comfort during recovery.
IstanbulAges 1–7 - 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+ - NCT06217107Recruiting

New drug study for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests an experimental new drug (GSK5471713) for men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread and stopped responding to hormone therapy. It is for people who have already tried certain hormone treatments and chemotherapy.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06251713Recruiting
Fluid removal guided by VeXUS score after heart surgery
This trial tests if using a special ultrasound score (VeXUS) to guide fluid removal can improve recovery in patients with acute kidney injury after heart surgery. It compares this approach to standard care to see if it leads to better outcomes.
Bron, BronAges 18–85 - NCT06970275Recruiting
PET-CT imaging study for cancer surgery patients
This trial uses a special PET-CT scanner to take high-resolution images of cancer tumors that have been surgically removed. The goal is to see how well these images match the results from standard lab tests, such as pathology, and to track long-term outcomes.
GhentAges 18 years+ - NCT07212595RecruitingPhase 2
Amino acid therapy to protect kidneys after heart surgery in children
This trial is testing whether giving amino acids after heart surgery can help prevent kidney injury in children at high risk. If it works, it could offer a simple way to protect kidney function during recovery.
