BrnoAges 18 years+ - NCT07183800Recruiting
Trampoline jumping and pelvic health
This study looks at how trampoline jumping affects the structure of your pelvic floor (the muscles and tissues that support your bladder and other organs) and whether it causes any urine leakage. It may help us understand safe exercise for women who don't usually have leaks.

Follow-up for small kidney stones (≤4 mm)
This trial is for people who have a small kidney stone (less than 4 mm) in the ureter, seen on a CT scan, and don't need urgent treatment. It studies how best to follow up on these stones.

Testing a kidney-protecting drug in sickle cell disease
This study tests whether empagliflozin, a medicine that protects the kidneys in people with diabetes, can also protect the kidneys in people with sickle cell disease. The goal is to see if it can reduce protein in the urine, which is a sign of kidney stress.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–60 - NCT07181161RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new drug for metastatic prostate cancer
This trial tests an investigational drug (AZD0516) alone or with other treatments in men with prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body and is no longer responding to hormone therapy. It aims to see if the drug can help control the cancer.
Fayetteville, ArkansasAges 18–130 - NCT07182227RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy for IgA nephropathy kidney disease
This trial tests a new gene therapy called PS-002 for adults with IgA nephropathy, a kidney disease that can lead to kidney failure. The treatment aims to reduce kidney damage, and this study will help determine if it is safe and effective.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07181473RecruitingPhase 1
Safety of TJ101 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called TJ101 for people with advanced solid tumors who have tried standard treatments or have no standard options. It aims to see if the drug is safe and how well it works.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07177937RecruitingPhase 1
Study of DXC014 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests DXC014, a new drug, in people with advanced solid tumors, including prostate cancer. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05715502Recruiting
Targeted radiation for prostate cancer that came back
This study tests a focused (“salvage”) brachytherapy—radiation placed directly near the prostate—to treat prostate cancer that has returned after earlier radiation. It may help control the tumor while limiting radiation exposure to surrounding tissues, based on how well people fit the study’s safety and cancer details.
Poznan, Greater Poland VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT07172802RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of GI-108 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called GI-108, which is designed to help your immune system fight cancer. It is for people with advanced or metastatic solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments.
SeoulAges 18 years+ - NCT07171216Recruiting
Parathyroid hormone control and bone density in kidney disease
This trial tests whether regulating parathyroid hormone (PTH) can improve bone density in people with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) who are not on dialysis. It may help you if you have stage 4-5 CKD and high PTH levels.
Herlev, Capital RegionAges 50 years+ - NCT07167368Recruiting
Exercise rehab for heart and kidney health
This trial tests whether a supervised exercise program can help people with heart failure and mild-to-moderate kidney problems. It might improve both your heart and kidney function.
Nantong, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT07172685Recruiting
Triple therapy plus HIFU for high-tumor-burden prostate cancer
This trial tests a combination of hormone therapy, chemotherapy (docetaxel), and a targeted drug (apalutamide) with a focused ultrasound procedure (HIFU) for men with prostate cancer that has spread to many bones or organs. It may help control the cancer more effectively.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT07171190Recruiting
Adding abdominal CT to standard lung cancer screening
This study adds an optional CT scan of the belly to the usual lung cancer screening in certain areas of England. It aims to see if this extra scan helps find more health issues early.
HullAges 55–70 - NCT07173062Recruiting
