Apantamide plus docetaxel with hormone therapy for advanced prostate cancer
This early-phase trial tests whether adding apantamide to hormone therapy (and possibly adding docetaxel chemotherapy) works better and is safe for men with high-volume spread of prostate cancer. It’s designed for people who have recently started hormone therapy and haven’t shown clear disease worsening yet.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–90 - NCT05237063Recruiting
Predicting kidney stone recurrence and complications using precision medicine
This study looks for better ways to predict when kidney stones may come back and what complications might happen. It may help doctors personalize follow-up and prevention plans based on information collected from you.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT05716880RecruitingPhase 3
Keto-like diet supplements for muscle loss in nephrotic syndrome
This Phase 3 study tests a keto-like supplement (Ketosteril) to help prevent or slow muscle loss in people with nephrotic syndrome. It may help by improving nutrition when the kidneys are leaking large amounts of protein.
Warsaw, Masovian DistrictAges 18 years+ - NCT03836196Recruiting
Improve treatment for advanced prostate cancer with careful planning
This study looks at how to best plan and deliver treatment for men with advanced local prostate cancer. It may help find the most effective approach while keeping side effects manageable.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05722392Recruiting
Two-step surgery for localized prostate cancer
This trial studies a “two-step” type of prostate removal surgery for men with localized prostate cancer, focusing on whether it is safe and effective. It may help if you have certain prostate size, PSA level, and tumor features that match their criteria.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges Any age - NCT04098822Recruiting
Survey study for men with a Virtue male sling
This study follows men who have the Virtue male sling to collect longer-term experience through questionnaires and medical data review. It may help improve how this sling is used and understood over time.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT05589207Recruiting
Model to predict outcomes in kidney cancer with IVC wall invasion
This study uses information from scans and surgery findings to build a prediction model for people with kidney cancer that has grown into a major vein (the IVC). It aims to help doctors better estimate outcomes and guide care after surgery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05672485Recruiting
Scan prostate cancer using a radioactive tracer SPECT/CT
This trial uses a special imaging scan (SPECT/CT) with a small amount of radioactive tracer to look at prostate cancer. It aims to see how well the scan matches your prostate cancer tests and may help improve detection and assessment.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18 years+ - NCT05036850Recruiting
Kidney patient research network follow-up study
This trial is for people with a primary (main) kidney disease who can regularly see a kidney doctor. It sets up and includes patients for possible interventional (active) research studies, which may help improve kidney care for future patients.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 2 years+ - NCT05753566RecruitingPhase 2
Rezvilutamide for prostate cancer PSA rise after prostate surgery
This Phase 2 study tests rezvilutamide in men whose prostate-specific antigen (PSA) starts rising again after the prostate has been removed. It aims to see whether this treatment can help prevent or slow cancer spread after surgery, especially in men without signs of spread on scans.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 40 years+ - NCT04763538Recruiting
Hospital patients who agree to share health information
This study tracks how urology patients are doing and measures outcomes using information from your medical history. It may help doctors improve care, as long as you agree to participate.
BielAges 18 years+ - NCT05768464RecruitingPhase 2
Surgery aftercare for non-clear kidney cancer at high risk
This Phase 2 trial studies an after-surgery treatment for people with non-clear types of kidney cancer who are at high risk of coming back. It aims to lower the chance of recurrence by giving extra therapy after your tumor is completely removed.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT05771597Recruiting
Home biofeedback to improve bowel and bladder control
This study tests whether doing guided “biofeedback” exercises at home can improve problems with constipation/blocked feeling, fecal leaks, and/or urine leaks. It focuses on retraining the muscles used for toileting to help you empty more normally and have fewer accidents.
Augusta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05771168Recruiting
Surgery for men with stress urinary leakage
This study looks at men who are having surgery for stress urinary incontinence (urine leakage when coughing, sneezing, or exerting yourself) using devices like a sling or artificial urinary sphincter. It will follow how patients do after surgery using questionnaires, to understand benefits and experiences.
Roma, RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT05712785Recruiting
Ureteroscopy test for stones in the ureter
This trial studies ureteroscopy, a procedure where a camera and tools are used through the urethra to reach and treat ureter stones. It may help people whose kidney/urine tract stones are causing symptoms and who can safely cooperate with treatment.
Handan, HebeiAges 18–85 - NCT05778552Recruiting
Home pelvic floor training follow-up for bladder and pelvic support issues
This study checks how well a home-based pelvic muscle training program works over the medium and long term for people with stress urine leakage and pelvic support problems. It may help you learn whether this at-home exercise plan improves bladder control and comfort over time.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT01515605Recruiting
Monitoring gene and molecular changes after kidney transplant
This study checks samples from people after a kidney transplant to better understand how treatment is working at a biological (molecular) level. It may help doctors improve follow-up care and therapy over time.
Odense, DKAges 18 years+ - NCT05054296RecruitingPhase 2
Exercise and Fitbit monitoring to lower heart risk in prostate cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether a structured exercise and lifestyle program, tracked with a Fitbit, can reduce cardiovascular (heart) risk in men with prostate cancer on hormone therapy. It also checks whether this is safe and feasible while monitoring symptoms and fitness changes.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05792033Recruiting
Registry for early T1 bladder cancer after repeat bladder surgery
This study follows people with newly diagnosed early bladder cancer (T1) to better understand outcomes and guide follow-up care. You may be able to join if your cancer is confirmed after a second look bladder procedure and scans show no spread.
ViennaAges 18–90 - NCT04861415Recruiting
Testing a shorter radiation plan versus standard prostate radiation
This study compares two ways of giving radiation to the prostate, including a “boost” using a special internal radiation treatment. It’s meant to see which radiation schedule works better and is safer for certain prostate cancer patients.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05754853RecruitingPhase 3
MRG002 antibody compared with standard chemo for HER2 bladder cancer
This trial studies whether MRG002, a targeted antibody treatment, works better than the patient’s chosen standard chemotherapy. It is for people with HER2-positive advanced or metastatic urothelial (bladder/urinary tract) cancer whose disease has progressed after prior platinum chemotherapy and immunotherapy.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05019846RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation alone versus radiation plus hormone therapy for prostate cancer
This Phase 3 trial compares two treatment approaches: stereotactic radiation therapy by itself versus the same radiation plus hormone therapy (ADT). It aims to see which plan works better for men with higher-risk prostate cancer without spread to lymph nodes or distant sites.
Brescia, BSAges 18–80 - NCT05840575Recruiting
Study of thinking changes in young people during cancer treatment
This study looks at how thinking and memory may change in children and young adults after a new cancer diagnosis, especially around chemotherapy. It may help doctors better understand and track brain-related side effects early.
