Brain changes from vibration in laryngeal dystonia
This study uses a gentle vibrating device placed on the skin to see how it affects brain activity in people with laryngeal dystonia (a voice disorder). The goal is to learn more about how the brain controls voice and maybe find new ways to help.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18–75 - NCT07444372Recruiting
CPAP for Sleep Apnea After Atrial Fibrillation Ablation
This trial tests whether starting CPAP therapy (a breathing mask used during sleep) after a heart procedure called atrial fibrillation ablation can help people with both sleep apnea and atrial fibrillation. It might lower the chance of the heart rhythm problem coming back.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07444437RecruitingPhase 2
LM103 after surgery for lung cancer
This trial tests if LM103, given after surgery and standard chemotherapy, helps prevent non-small cell lung cancer from coming back. It is for people who have already had chemotherapy or immunotherapy before surgery and whose cancer did not return after surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07444814RecruitingPhase 1
HWK-007 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called HWK-007, which is designed to target and attack cancer cells while sparing healthy ones. It is for people with specific advanced solid tumors (lung, endometrial, or ovarian cancer) that have not responded well to standard treatments.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT07445971RecruitingPhase 1
Study of MDX2301 for healthy adults and those at higher risk for severe COVID-19
This trial tests an investigational drug called MDX2301 to see if it's safe in healthy adults and in adults who are at higher risk for severe COVID-19. Higher risk means you have conditions like asthma, diabetes, heart disease, or other listed health issues.
Las Vegas, NevadaAges 18–64 - NCT07446634Recruiting
Jaw advancement surgery for sleep apnea
This study tests jaw advancement surgery for people with obstructive sleep apnea who haven't been helped by CPAP or mouthpieces. It looks at whether moving the jaw forward can improve breathing during sleep.
Falun, Dalarna CountyAges 18–70 - NCT07446985Recruiting
Exercise and diet for PCOS with asthma
This study tests whether adding physical exercise to a diet plan helps women who have both PCOS and asthma. It may help you lose weight and manage your symptoms.
Giza, DokkiAges 20–30 - NCT07447050RecruitingPhase 2
Riluzole to Prevent Chemo-Related Cognitive Problems
This pilot study tests whether the drug riluzole can help prevent the thinking and memory problems (often called 'chemobrain') that some people experience during chemotherapy. If you are about to start a chemo regimen containing an anthracycline or platinum drug, you may be able to join.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07447011Recruiting
Glaucoma treatment response with sleep apnea lifestyle changes
This trial tests whether lifestyle changes can help open-angle glaucoma in people who also have obstructive sleep apnea and are obese. It may offer a non-drug way to manage both conditions.
