Treating fatigue in Sjögren's syndrome with auricular stimulation
This trial tests three non-medication strategies for fatigue in Sjögren's syndrome, including a type of ear stimulation. It aims to find a better way to help people who have had fatigue for at least 6 months with no clear cause.
Saint-EtienneAges 18 years+ - NCT06875609Recruiting

This trial studies a blood test (ctDNA) in people with a type of skin cancer called cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. It aims to see if the test can help track the cancer and guide treatment decisions.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06869629Recruiting
Avoiding armpit lymph node removal in breast cancer
This trial tests whether it is safe to skip removing lymph nodes from the armpit when cancer has spread there but has been found by ultrasound. If you have breast cancer that has spread to armpit lymph nodes and are not getting chemotherapy before surgery, this study may be an option.
HelsinkiAges 18 years+ - NCT06875960RecruitingPhase 4
