Genetic testing study for African Americans
This study looks at genetic markers (genes) related to kidney risk in Black/African American adults. It may help researchers better understand who is at higher risk and how genetics could guide future care.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18–90 - NCT04794777RecruitingPhase 3
Tests targeted scans and rescue radiation for returning prostate cancer
This trial studies whether a targeted scan (PSMA PET/CT) can help doctors choose the best “salvage” radiation treatment when prostate cancer comes back by PSA blood tests after surgery. It may help some people avoid under- or over-treating the areas where the cancer is returning.
Gothenburg, GöteborgAges 18 years+ - NCT05169112RecruitingPhase 3
Hormone therapy to prevent prostate cancer coming back
This trial studies whether hormone therapy (also called ADT) after prostate surgery lowers the chance that prostate cancer will return. It targets people with very low PSA after surgery but with a higher predicted risk of recurrence.
Halifax, Nova ScotiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06872983Recruiting
Synthetic glue for mesh fixation in laparoscopic prolapse repair
This trial compares using synthetic glue to hold the mesh in place during a laparoscopic procedure to repair pelvic organ prolapse. The surgery also includes a partial hysterectomy, leaving the cervix.
Brno, Czech RepublicAges 18–75 - NCT06885463Recruiting
PRP and PDO threads for stress incontinence
This study tests a non-surgical treatment using your own blood (PRP) and special threads (PDO) to help with stress urinary incontinence (leaking urine when you cough, sneeze, or exercise). It may be an option if other treatments haven't worked and you are waiting for surgery.
CairoAges 20–45 - NCT05694624Recruiting
Study of sepsis-related kidney injury monitoring
This trial looks at acute kidney injury that can happen during sepsis (a serious body-wide infection or suspected infection). It may help improve how doctors detect and manage kidney problems early, especially in intensive care or around major surgery.
Tromsø, TromsAges 18–100 - NCT06889649RecruitingPhase 2
SBRT plus immunotherapy and targeted therapy for kidney cancer
This trial tests a combination of targeted therapy (axitinib) and immunotherapy (toripalimab) alongside stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for kidney cancer that has come back or spread. It may be an option if you have a limited number of metastatic tumors that can be treated with radiation.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07275788RecruitingPhase 1
Study of REGEND003 for type 2 diabetes with kidney disease
This trial tests a new treatment, REGEND003, for people who have both type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease. The goal is to see if it can help manage these conditions together.
ShanghaiAges 30–75 - NCT07271186RecruitingPhase 2
Study of an experimental drug for kidney disease from type 2 diabetes
This study tests an investigational drug called ALN-ANG3 to see if it can help people with diabetic kidney disease. The drug may reduce kidney damage and slow down the loss of kidney function. If you join, you will get the study drug or a placebo (a dummy shot) and be followed by a study doctor.
Huntsville, AlabamaAges 18–80 - NCT07277413RecruitingPhase 1
Study of IDE892 for advanced solid tumors with MTAP deletion
This study tests a new drug called IDE892, alone or in combination, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific genetic change (MTAP deletion). The goal is to see if the drug is safe and whether it can shrink tumors.
Goodyear, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07273773Recruiting
Evaluating a new inflatable penile implant for erectile dysfunction
This trial tests a device called the Infla10®, an inflatable penile implant for men with erectile dysfunction. The goal is to see how well it works and how safe it is.
Coral Gables, FloridaAges 22 years+ - NCT07272720Recruiting
Shock wave study for single kidney stones (6-15 mm)
This trial tests a new shock wave device to break apart a single kidney stone. It may be a good option if you have one stone between 6 and 15 mm that is not too hard or too far from the skin.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT06889623Recruiting
Chemotherapy right after surgery for high-risk bladder cancer
This trial tests whether giving chemotherapy immediately after surgery can help people with high-risk, non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. It aims to reduce the chance of the cancer coming back.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05008276Recruiting
Study of puberty, diabetes, and kidney stress in teens
This trial studies how puberty and blood sugar changes affect the kidneys in people with type 1 diabetes. It may help researchers understand early kidney risk and identify who needs closer monitoring.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 8–14 - NCT06865430Recruiting
Managing urinary symptoms after HoLEP surgery
This trial tests if alpha-blocker medication can reduce painful or frequent urination after a prostate surgery called HoLEP. It may help you recover more comfortably.
AnkaraAges 40–85 - NCT07276152Recruiting
Music and oxytocin study for healthy adults and those with AVP deficiency
This trial tests whether listening to music modified by a special technology changes oxytocin levels in the blood. It may help us understand how music affects social bonding and stress.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT07275879Recruiting
Quality of life with a new ureteral stent
This study tests a modified double J stent to see how it affects your quality of life. If you have kidney or ureter stones, this trial may help improve comfort during treatment.
Saint Petersburg, Outside U.S./CanadaAges 18 years+ - NCT07270172Recruiting
Micronutrient study for type 1 diabetes complications
This study tests how a specific drug affects heart and kidney health in people with type 1 diabetes who already have some complications like kidney disease, heart problems, or obesity. It aims to find new ways to prevent further damage.
Aarhus NAges 40 years+ - NCT07277673Recruiting
Exercise plus talk therapy for impotence in men with metabolic syndrome
This trial tests if adding aerobic exercise to cognitive behavioral therapy (talk therapy) can help treat impotence in men who have metabolic syndrome and drink heavily.

It might be a good fit if you are on dialysis, not already exercising regularly, and have no serious health conditions that make exercise risky.
StrasbourgAges 20–79 - NCT07276295Recruiting
Comparing two sling surgeries for stress incontinence
This study compares two types of sling surgery to treat stress urinary incontinence (leaking urine during activities like coughing or exercise). It aims to see if a synthetic (man-made) sling works as well as a sling made from your own body tissue, which may help you choose the best option.
