Bourg-en-BresseAges 18–75 - NCT04816006Recruiting
Breast cancer, thinking, and exercise study
This trial tests whether exercise can help thinking and reasoning in women over 50 who have had early-stage breast cancer. It compares a moderate exercise program with health education sessions.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 50 years+ - NCT04771871RecruitingPhase 2
Study tiny RNA changes in triple-negative breast cancer
This trial studies patterns of microRNA (tiny gene-regulating molecules) in women with triple-negative breast cancer. By comparing these microRNA profiles, the study hopes to better understand the disease and potentially guide future treatment choices.
Ile-Ife, OshunAges 18–70 - NCT04797286RecruitingPhase 2
Sildenafil for early lung blood-pressure problems in scleroderma
This trial tests whether sildenafil can improve early “high pressure in the lung blood vessels” in people with scleroderma. It may help slow worsening breathing and lung blood-vessel disease before it becomes severe.
New Orleans, LouisianaAges 18 years+ - NCT04804930Recruiting
Skin and scalp exam study in systemic scleroderma
This study uses a detailed look at your skin and scalp (often with a magnifying exam) to learn more about systemic scleroderma. It may help doctors understand the condition better and improve how it’s assessed over time.
LilleAges 18 years+ - NCT04804553RecruitingPhase 3
Apremilast for children with active juvenile psoriatic arthritis
This Phase 3 trial tests apremilast to treat active juvenile psoriatic arthritis (joint inflammation) in children and teens. You may be able to join if your child’s condition is active despite prior treatments or if they couldn’t tolerate them.
GhentAges 5–17 - NCT04772079RecruitingPhase 3
Test drug safety and effectiveness for youth plaque psoriasis
This study checks whether deucravacitinib works well and is safe in children and teens with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. It also looks at drug levels in the body to help understand how the treatment behaves over time.
Ciudad Autonoma de Buenos Aires, Buenos AiresAges 4–18 - NCT04748809Recruiting
Diet trial for rheumatoid arthritis inflammation
This study tests whether an anti-inflammatory diet can help people with rheumatoid arthritis by lowering inflammation and disease activity. You may join if your symptoms are currently mild to moderate and you haven’t recently changed medications or your treatment plan.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04741997RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Adjuvant melanoma treatment guided by response to targeted drugs
This early-phase study looks at whether people with melanoma can get the “right” follow-up (extra) treatment based on how well their cancer responds after starting targeted drugs before surgery. The goal is to improve outcomes while better matching treatment to each person’s tumor response.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04692493RecruitingPhase 3
Testing two treatment paths for active rheumatoid arthritis
This Phase 3 study compares two ways to treat active rheumatoid arthritis: a TNF-blocking biologic versus a targeted pill treatment. It may help people who are not doing well on (or cannot tolerate) certain biologic therapies to find a better, more practical option.
Auburn, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04764357Recruiting
Scalp cooling to help prevent chemotherapy-related hair loss in kids
This study looks at whether “cold cap” scalp cooling can help prevent or reduce hair loss in children getting chemotherapy. It’s aimed at kids treated with certain chemotherapy medicines and who may be at risk for losing their hair.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 7 years+ - NCT04768426RecruitingPhase 2
Watching DNA in blood while taking capecitabine after breast cancer
This trial checks how a blood test that looks for cancer DNA (ctDNA) changes during and after you take capecitabine after early triple-negative breast cancer. It aims to see whether these blood test results can help monitor the chance of the cancer coming back.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04743362Recruiting
Noninvasive scans for skin and mouth lesions
This trial tests noninvasive imaging methods to look at skin and mouth (mucosal) conditions. It may help doctors better see changes in these areas without taking tissue samples.
New York, New YorkAges Any age - NCT04751396Recruiting
Melanoma education for people with autoimmune conditions
This trial tests an educational tool to help people with melanoma and pre-existing autoimmune disease understand immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment. It aims to support you and your care team with information that can help you make decisions and feel more prepared.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04697576RecruitingPhase 1
Flu vaccine injected into melanoma tumors for stage I-IV
This trial tests whether injecting a flu vaccine directly into melanoma tumors helps shrink them. It is for people with stage I to IV melanoma who have at least one tumor that can be injected.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–99 - NCT04692818Recruiting
3D ultrasound imaging for women with a breast lump
This study tests how well a new 3D ultrasound method can “see” a solid breast lump that is being biopsied. It may help doctors get clearer images to guide diagnosis, especially alongside a standard biopsy.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT04703244Recruiting
Testing patient tumor samples to create research models in breast cancer
This study collects tumor-related samples from people with invasive breast cancer who are having surgery after treatment before surgery. Researchers use your samples to create lab models (called PDX and organoids) to help study breast cancer and find better future treatments.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT04726306Enrolling by invitation
Compare two scoring systems for hyperbaric care quality

The Bronx, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04740697Recruiting
Complementary therapies to help people stay on tamoxifen
This study looks at whether adding alternative or complementary supports can improve how well people stick with tamoxifen treatment for early hormone-related breast cancer. If it helps adherence, it may help people benefit more reliably from their prescribed therapy.
ToulouseAges 1.5 years+ - NCT04693377Recruiting
Freezing tumor treatment plus targeted radiation for painful bone spread
This study tests whether combining a “freezing” procedure (cryoablation) with focused external radiation (SBRT) can reduce pain from bone metastases. It’s for people with certain cancers that have spread to bone and are having significant pain in a specific bone spot.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04751435Recruiting
