Early vs. delayed shock wave treatment for leftover kidney stones
This trial compares two timing schedules for using shock waves to break up small kidney stones that remain after a surgical procedure. The goal is to find the best time to treat these leftover stones to help them pass naturally and prevent complications.

Nutrition and kidney health support program for chronic kidney disease
This study tests a program that combines nutrition guidance and kidney health support to help people with chronic kidney disease manage their condition. You may join if you have kidney disease plus diabetes, high blood pressure, overweight, or food insecurity, and you are willing to make healthy changes.

Blood test to find leftover cancer after treatment
This study uses a blood test to look for tiny bits of cancer DNA after you finish treatment. It may help doctors know if cancer is still there and guide next steps.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07520916Recruiting
Mobile app education for men after prostate removal surgery
This study tests whether a smartphone app that teaches you about recovery before and after prostate cancer surgery helps prevent urinary leakage and erectile problems. You'd use the app to learn exercises and tips tailored to your recovery.
Giresun, GiresunAges 18 years+ - NCT07516964Recruiting
Studying autoimmune kidney disease in children and adults
This study collects medical information and samples from patients with podocytopathy—a type of autoimmune kidney disease that causes protein leakage into urine. Researchers will analyze your medical records and any blood or kidney tissue samples you've already had to better understand the disease and find better treatments.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges birth–99 years - NCT07523477Recruiting
Botulinum Toxin Injections for Children With Bedwetting or Voiding Problems
This trial tests whether injections of botulinum toxin (a medicine that relaxes muscles) into the bladder can help children who wet the bed at night or have trouble controlling their urine, even after trying other treatments. The goal is to see if this approach works better than current standard care.
Tanta, El-GharbiaAges Up to 18 years - NCT07516886Recruiting
Early PSA levels after prostate surgery and cancer outcomes
This study looks at how PSA (a blood marker) levels measured shortly after prostate removal surgery can predict whether cancer comes back. Researchers hope this helps doctors identify patients who may need closer monitoring or additional treatment after surgery.
Kaunas, KaunoAges 18 years+ - NCT07524439Recruiting
Beta-glucan cream for incontinence-related skin irritation
This study tests whether a special cream containing beta-glucan (a natural ingredient) can soothe and protect skin damaged by urine or stool leakage. You'd apply the cream during a hospital stay of at least one week to see if it helps healing.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT07523022Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Fertility Treatments for Low Sperm Count or Quality
This study compares two different hormone treatments to see which one better improves sperm health and increases pregnancy chances in men with low or abnormal sperm. You'll receive either injections or pills designed to boost sperm production.
SzegedAges 18 years+ - NCT07517536Enrolling by invitation
CHT105 treatment for hard-to-treat lupus kidney disease
This study tests a new medicine called CHT105 for lupus patients whose kidney disease hasn't improved with standard treatments. The medicine targets specific immune cells that may be driving the kidney damage.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–65 - NCT07520396Recruiting
Swiss Ball Exercises and Breathing for Pregnant Women with Leaking
This study tests whether special ball exercises combined with belly-breathing techniques can help pregnant women who leak urine. The goal is to strengthen pelvic floor muscles—the muscles that control urination—during pregnancy.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 20–40 - NCT07524426Recruiting
Local Radiation Therapy for Bladder Cancer Not Suitable for Surgery
This trial tests whether focused radiation therapy directed at the bladder can help patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer who are not candidates for surgical removal or have chosen not to have surgery. The goal is to see if this approach can control the cancer and improve quality of life.
Umeå, Västerbotten CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT07518979RecruitingPhase 2
EGFR-targeted drug plus immunotherapy for advanced penile cancer
This trial tests a new combination treatment for advanced penile cancer that hasn't been treated before. It combines a targeted drug (becotatug vedotin) designed to attack cancer cells with an immunotherapy drug (pucotenlimab) that helps your immune system fight cancer.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18 years+ - NCT06758284Recruiting
Laughter yoga for fear and anxiety before ureteroscopy
This study tests whether a special type of yoga that focuses on laughter can help reduce fear and anxiety before a ureteroscopy procedure. It may be a way to feel calmer without using medicine.
Samsun, SamsunAges 18 years+ - NCT06756334RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Comparing Two PET/CT Scans for Prostate Cancer
This study compares two types of PET/CT scans (using different radioactive tracers) to see which one is better at finding prostate cancer, detecting if it has come back, or spotting spread to other parts of the body. You will get both scans so doctors can compare them directly.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–90 - NCT05401032RecruitingPhase 2
Tryptophan for urinary symptoms from prostate enlargement
This Phase 2 study tests whether tryptophan is safe and can improve urinary symptoms caused by an enlarged prostate (BPH). It focuses on men who have bothersome, stable symptoms and who would normally take tamsulosin.
BragaAges 50–74 - NCT06758882RecruitingPhase 2
Surgery with or without apalutamide for high-risk prostate cancer that has spread a little
This trial tests whether adding the drug apalutamide before and after surgery helps men with high-risk prostate cancer that has spread to a few spots (seen on a special PET scan). You would also receive standard hormone therapy.
Torino, ToAges 18–80 - NCT06759142Recruiting
Study of people with ADPKD
This study looks at people with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease to learn more about the condition. It is an observational study, meaning no new treatments are tested—just gathering information from your medical history and tests.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT06759831Recruiting
Clinical outcomes of living and deceased donor kidney transplants
This study looks at how well kidney transplants work from both living and deceased donors. It may help doctors better understand long-term outcomes for people who get a new kidney.
