Vitamin D for children with wet overactive bladder
This trial tests whether giving vitamin D to children with 'wet' overactive bladder (OAB) – where they leak urine with sudden urges – can help improve symptoms. It's for children aged 5 and older who have low vitamin D levels and no other serious health conditions.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 5–18 - NCT06202235Recruiting
Magnetic resonance imaging for chronic kidney disease
This trial uses a special MRI technique called multifrequency magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) to see if it can help evaluate chronic kidney disease. It may provide a non-invasive way to monitor kidney health without needing a biopsy.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–65 - NCT06202248Recruiting
DaRT radiation therapy for prostate cancer that has returned
This trial tests a new type of radiation using tiny alpha-emitting seeds placed directly into the tumor. It is for people whose prostate cancer came back in the gland after initial treatment but hasn't spread elsewhere.
HaifaAges 18–120 - NCT06202846Recruiting
Looking for Y chromosome in Turner syndrome blood
This study looks for a tiny piece of the Y chromosome (a sex chromosome normally found in males) in a blood sample. It may help doctors better understand Turner syndrome and find hidden Y chromosome material that could affect health.
LyonAges 2–74 - NCT06203847Recruiting
Prehospital drug combo for cardiac arrest
This trial tests whether a combination of three medications (epinephrine, vasopressin, and a steroid) given by paramedics before arriving at the hospital can improve survival for adults who have a cardiac arrest outside of a hospital. It is only for patients who are treated by specially trained paramedics and meet specific medical criteria.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06204874Recruiting
Nerve stimulation for bladder pain in women
This trial tests a new nerve stimulation approach for women with bladder pain syndrome. It aims to find a gentler way to reduce pain and urgency without surgery.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06205316RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation therapy for returning or limited-spread prostate cancer
This trial compares two types of radiation therapy for prostate cancer that has come back or spread to a few places after surgery. The goal is to see which radiation schedule works better with fewer side effects.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06206707Recruiting
FMT for Diarrhea and Colitis After Immunotherapy
This trial tests whether a treatment called fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) — transferring healthy gut bacteria — can help relieve diarrhea and colitis caused by immunotherapy drugs. If you have melanoma or kidney cancer and are experiencing diarrhea after immunotherapy, this study may offer a new option.
Aarhus NAges 18 years+ - NCT06209853Recruiting
PSA levels and PSMA PET/CT in prostate cancer
This study looks at how PSA levels (a blood test marker for prostate cancer) relate to images from a special scan called F-18 PSMA PET/CT. It helps doctors understand what the scan results mean for your cancer.
AsyutAges Any age - NCT06210009Recruiting
Can a heart-healthy diet help prevent kidney stones?
This study tests whether a special diet (called DASH, similar to one for high blood pressure) can reduce substances in urine that cause kidney stones. If you have had kidney stones and live in the Birmingham area, this diet might help prevent future stones.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 19–89 - NCT06211114RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy and targeted drug for advanced collecting duct kidney cancer
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy and a targeted drug (axitinib) for people with advanced collecting duct carcinoma, a rare type of kidney cancer. The goal is to see if this treatment can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06211790RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted first-line treatment for advanced kidney cancer based on protein profile
This trial tests a first-line precision treatment for clear cell kidney cancer that has spread or cannot be removed. It aims to match the treatment to your cancer's protein profile to improve outcomes.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT06212453RecruitingPhase 2
Ultrasound-guided heat therapy for enlarged prostate
This trial tests a new, less invasive treatment for enlarged prostate (BPH) that uses ultrasound and heat to shrink the part of the prostate blocking urine flow. It aims to improve urinary symptoms and avoid the need for more invasive surgery.
ParisAges 40 years+ - NCT06215508Recruiting
Smartwatch and geriatric assessment for older men with prostate cancer
This trial tests whether using a smartwatch along with a geriatric assessment can help doctors better manage the health of older men with metastatic prostate cancer who are about to start a new type of hormone therapy. It aims to improve quality of life and treatment outcomes.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 minutes+ - NCT06215976RecruitingPhase 4
Metformin with cisplatin for bladder cancer: protecting kidneys
This trial tests if adding metformin to cisplatin chemotherapy can protect the kidneys of people with bladder cancer. It may help reduce kidney damage from cisplatin treatment.
CairoAges 18–65 - NCT06216249RecruitingPhase 2
Flexible dosing of Lu-PSMA for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a flexible dosing schedule of a targeted radiation drug (Lu-PSMA) for men with metastatic prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy and chemotherapy. It aims to see if adjusting the treatment schedule can improve outcomes while reducing side effects.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06217302RecruitingPhase 3
Sotagliflozin for kidney protection in type 1 diabetes
This study tests whether sotagliflozin (a pill that helps control blood sugar and protects the kidneys) can slow down kidney function decline in people with type 1 diabetes and diabetic kidney disease. You may qualify if you have had type 1 diabetes for at least 8 years, have moderate kidney damage, and are on standard treatments.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT06217588Recruiting
LCAT Deficiency Natural History Study
This study tracks people with LCAT deficiency over time to learn more about how the condition affects the body. It does not test a treatment, but helps researchers understand the disease better so they can design future studies.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges Any age - NCT06218433Recruiting
Bladder cancer screening for Lynch syndrome with a urine test
This study is testing a urine test to see if it can find bladder cancer early in people with Lynch syndrome. If you have Lynch syndrome and are between 50 and 75, this screening could help catch cancer before it causes symptoms.
VancouverAges 50–75 - NCT06219746Recruiting
New imaging scan for high-risk prostate cancer staging
This trial tests a special type of scan (99mTc-MIP-1404 SPECT/CT) to see how well it can detect the spread of high-risk prostate cancer. It may help doctors better understand the stage of the disease before deciding on treatment.
