Maywood, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06714916Recruiting
AI-guided kidney tumor surgery study
This study uses artificial intelligence to help plan the best surgery for kidney tumors. You may be eligible if you have a kidney tumor that can be removed with surgery and have had a special CT scan within the past month.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07283835RecruitingPhase 2
Study of Cretostimogene for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer
This trial tests a new drug, Cretostimogene, for people with a type of bladder cancer that hasn't spread into the muscle layer (non-muscle invasive) and has not responded to standard BCG treatment. The goal is to see if this drug can help control the cancer and avoid the need for bladder removal surgery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07287150RecruitingPhase 2
Testing Inavolisib for advanced prostate cancer
This study tests a new targeted therapy called inavolisib for men with advanced, hormone-resistant prostate cancer that has spread. The drug may work by blocking a specific pathway that helps cancer grow. Participants must have already tried one second-generation hormone therapy and have a tumor sample available for testing.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07285291RecruitingPhase 3
Study of a new drug for high phosphorus in dialysis patients
This trial tests a new medicine called TS-172 for people with high phosphorus levels who are on hemodialysis. It aims to lower phosphorus levels and is taken along with your current phosphate binder medication.
TokyoAges 18 years+ - NCT07285304RecruitingPhase 3
Long-term study of TS-172 for high phosphorus on dialysis
This trial tests a new medicine, TS-172, to lower high phosphorus levels in people with kidney disease who are on hemodialysis. It looks at safety and effectiveness over a longer period.
TokyoAges 18 years+ - NCT07287488Recruiting
Testing a catheter device to stop bleeding after TURP surgery
This study is testing a new device that uses a catheter to help stop bleeding after a prostate surgery called TURP. It's looking for healthcare professionals who are experienced with catheters to help evaluate whether the device works well.
Ankara, YenimahalleAges Any age - NCT07285057RecruitingPhase 2
New PET scan for men with low-risk prostate cancer on active surveillance
This trial tests a new imaging test called rhPSMA-7.3 (18F) PET/CT to see if it can better detect prostate cancer in men who are on active surveillance because their cancer is considered low-risk or favorable intermediate-risk. You would also get an MRI and a biopsy as part of the study.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07283003Recruiting
Pain after ureter stone removal surgery study
This study looks at pain levels after a procedure to remove stones from the ureter (the tube connecting your kidney to your bladder). It may help find better ways to manage pain after surgery.
BadenAges 18 years+ - NCT07280585RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a diabetes drug to slow kidney disease progression
This study tests whether a common diabetes medication (SGLT2 inhibitor) can help people with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) maintain kidney function longer. If you have fast-growing kidney cysts and are between 18 and 60 years old, this trial may be an option.
FeldkirchAges 18–60 - NCT07278973Recruiting
Dialysis study for people over 84 with kidney failure
This trial compares two types of dialysis (hemodiafiltration and standard hemodialysis) to see which works better for older adults with kidney failure. You may be eligible if you are over 84, have been on dialysis for at least 3 months, and are generally healthy enough to participate.
BretagneAges 85 years+ - NCT07283484Recruiting
Early vs. delayed catheter removal in men with sudden urinary retention
This study compares two approaches for men who have had a catheter placed for sudden urinary blockage: trying to remove the catheter early (after 1 day) versus waiting a few more days. It aims to see which timing works better to help you urinate without the catheter.
