Stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation without standard blood thinners
This trial tests a new medication to prevent strokes and blood clots in people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) who cannot safely take standard blood thinners. The drug works by blocking a different clotting factor, which may lower bleeding risks.

StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT07431567Recruiting
How low oxygen affects heart function in healthy adults
This study tests how your heart’s right ventricle handles low oxygen (like at high altitude) in healthy adults. You will be exposed to a low-oxygen environment for a short time to see how your heart responds.
Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges 18–80 - NCT07431554Recruiting
Studying heart function in low oxygen after HAPE
This study looks at how the right side of the heart responds to low oxygen levels in people who have had high altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE) in the past. It will help researchers better understand right heart function.
ZurichAges 18–80 - NCT07431580Recruiting
How low oxygen affects heart function in asthma
This study tests how your heart's right ventricle adapts when you breathe lower-oxygen air (like at high altitude). If you have well-controlled asthma, researchers want to see if your heart handles the challenge differently.
Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges 18–80 - NCT07431840Recruiting
Immune protein for respiratory infections in older adults
This trial tests whether an immune defense protein can help reduce upper respiratory infections (like colds) in people aged 60 and older. It may be a good fit if you get colds or flu-like symptoms several times each season.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 60 years+ - NCT07431853RecruitingPhase 2
Study of an mRNA flu vaccine for adults
This trial is testing a new mRNA-based flu vaccine in healthy adults. It aims to see if the vaccine is safe and effective at preventing influenza.
Mobile, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07432191Recruiting
Testing a new ventilator for safe breathing support
This study tests a new breathing machine (INBENTUS VERSATILE ventilator) for people who need help breathing. It checks if the machine is safe and works well for patients who need a ventilator and then slowly come off it.
MurciaAges 18 years+ - NCT07432477Recruiting
Lung opening techniques after heart surgery
This trial compares two methods of opening the lungs (recruitment maneuvers) after heart-lung bypass to see which works better. The study aims to help patients recover their lung function more quickly after cardiac surgery.
Samsun, AtakumAges 18–80 - NCT07433283RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Iron nanoparticle injection for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new treatment for advanced solid tumors that uses tiny iron particles guided by carbon nanoparticles, injected directly into the tumor. It may be an option if standard treatments have stopped working or aren't available, and you have a tumor that can be safely injected.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07434050RecruitingPhase 3
Study of XW003 for obesity with sleep apnea on CPAP therapy
This trial tests an investigational drug called XW003 to see if it helps people with obesity and obstructive sleep apnea who are already using a positive airway pressure (PAP) machine, like CPAP. It aims to improve weight loss and sleep apnea symptoms.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07434518Recruiting
Study of adebrelimab for advanced small cell lung cancer
This study looks at how well adebrelimab works and how safe it is in real-world settings for people with advanced small cell lung cancer that has spread. It may help doctors understand if this treatment is a good option for patients like you.
ShanghaiAges 18–100 - NCT07434583Recruiting
Force sensor study for laryngeal surgery patients
This trial tests a force sensor tool used during laryngeal surgery (surgery on the voice box) via direct laryngoscopy (a tube inserted through the mouth). It may help surgeons apply the right amount of force to reduce tongue injuries.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07434908Recruiting
Study of HBP and lung fluid in ICU patients
This trial looks at a protein called HBP in the blood and how it relates to fluid in the lungs. You can join if you are over 18 and already have a special heart monitor called PiCCO in place.
ÖstersundAges 18 years+ - NCT07435155Recruiting
Voice and breathing test for speech problems after brain injury
This study uses voice recordings and breathing tests to better understand speech problems (dysarthria) that can happen after a brain injury. It may help improve how these problems are diagnosed and treated.
Salamanca, SalamancaAges 18 years+ - NCT07435714Recruiting
Helping patients choose surgery for chronic nasal swelling
This trial is testing a tool called a patient decision aid to help people with chronic hypertrophic rhinitis (long-term nasal swelling) make better choices about their surgery. You will be asked to use the aid and share your thoughts.
New Taipei CityAges 18 years+ - NCT07435805Recruiting
Long-term COVID effects in patients preparing for surgery
This study looks at long-term health effects in people who had COVID-19 and are now preparing for surgery. If you had a lab-confirmed COVID-19 infection, you may be asked to fill out a questionnaire during your preoperative anesthesia visit to help researchers understand how COVID affects recovery and health over time.
