Test your tumor’s drug response using a lab model
This trial grows a lab model from your own tumor tissue (or resected tissue) to predict which drugs might work best. It’s meant to match investigational treatments to your specific tumor biology.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT02819882Recruiting
Registry study for advanced or metastatic breast cancer
This study collects health and treatment information from people with breast cancer that cannot be fully removed by surgery or that has spread to other parts of the body. It may help researchers better understand which treatments are used and how people do over time.
Elche, AlicanteAges 18 years+ - NCT02530268Enrolling by invitation
Registry for psoriatic arthritis and spine arthritis patients starting treatment
This is a patient registry that tracks people with psoriatic arthritis or spine inflammatory arthritis when they start a specific new treatment. It helps researchers learn about real-world outcomes and safety as patients receive care over time.
Ages 18 years+ - NCT02402244Recruiting
Caring registry study for children and young people with cancer
This study keeps a careful record of children, teens, and young adults with cancer (and some related growths) and may follow them over time. It helps researchers better track outcomes and future contact so care can improve.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Up to 25 years - NCT02595957Recruiting
Study about how people understand genetic test results
This trial studies what people and families think and understand about genetic test results, especially when results suggest a higher risk for disease. It may also include interviews and follow-up, and in some cases additional family testing if it fits the study’s goals.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1 month–105 years - NCT02327884Recruiting
Study saliva and related diseases to learn health patterns
This study looks at diseases that involve the salivary (saliva) glands, and may also include people with active hepatitis, oral cancer, or healthy adults. Researchers collect blood, urine, saliva, and sometimes tissue to better understand what’s happening and how these conditions relate to saliva and oral health.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 4–100 - NCT02471352Recruiting
Share skin samples for dermatology research
This study collects and stores biological samples (biospecimens) from people with skin conditions, people at risk, or healthy volunteers. It helps researchers better understand dermatologic diseases and support future skin research.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1 day–100 years - NCT02610439Recruiting
Genetic testing to find causes of paclitaxel nerve damage
This study uses genetic tests on blood DNA to look for differences that may explain why some people develop nerve pain (peripheral neuropathy) from paclitaxel used for breast cancer. It compares people who got significant neuropathy during treatment with people who did not get neuropathy after completing paclitaxel.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT02504879Recruiting
Study of melorheostosis progression and genetic causes
This study follows adults with suspected or confirmed melorheostosis to understand how the condition develops and what outcomes to expect. It may help researchers better understand the disease and its genetic factors.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–90 - NCT02610413Recruiting
DNA testing to explain who gets severe blood pressure with bevacizumab
This study uses whole exome DNA testing to look for inherited genetic differences that may explain why some people develop very high blood pressure from bevacizumab during breast cancer treatment. It compares people who did vs. did not develop severe bevacizumab-related hypertension.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT02257866Recruiting
Study of blood vessel inflammation over time
This study looks at different types of blood vessel inflammation (vasculitis) to learn more about why they happen and how they progress. By joining, you may help doctors better understand these conditions and improve future treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3 years+ - NCT02621021RecruitingPhase 2
Immune cell therapy for advanced melanoma
This trial tests a treatment that uses your own immune cells, called tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), to fight melanoma. Some participants also get a drug called pembrolizumab. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink tumors.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–72 - NCT02610426Recruiting
Genetic testing to study who develops heart failure during breast cancer therapy
This study uses DNA genetic testing to find DNA changes that might explain why some people develop heart failure (CHF) after breast cancer treatment with certain medicines. It may help researchers understand risk and improve care for future patients.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT02432625Recruiting
Long-term study of bone fragility in osteogenesis imperfecta
This study follows people with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) to better understand how it affects bones and related issues over time. It may help doctors learn which features and genetic changes predict problems, and guide future care.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges Any age - NCT02302742Recruiting
Registry for triple-negative breast cancer and inherited mutation carriers
This registry studies people with triple-negative breast cancer or inherited “HBOC” gene mutations (like BRCA, PALB2, PTEN, TP53). It collects information to better understand risk, outcomes, and how these cancers behave—helping future research and care.
Hays, KansasAges Any age - NCT02254863RecruitingPhase 1
Stem cell transplant into the spinal fluid for rare brain diseases
This Phase 1 trial tests a transplant using special donated stem-cell–like cells placed into the spinal fluid to treat certain inherited brain diseases. It is mainly designed to check safety, and it may offer benefit by targeting brain and nerve damage.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 1 week–22 years - NCT02306096Recruiting
Study of breast cancer genes using blood or tumor samples
This trial looks at the genes in breast cancer to better understand the disease. It may help researchers find patterns that could improve future breast cancer diagnosis or treatment.
BoråsAges Any age - NCT02620852Recruiting
Wisdom Study: Women’s breast cancer screening decisions
This study looks at how to decide the best breast cancer screening (like mammograms) based on your personal risk. It may help by testing a smarter way to match screening to your risk level.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 30–74 - NCT02193295Recruiting
Testing how changing fats affects insulin resistance
This study tests how “lipid” (fat) changes in the body affect insulin resistance, which is when the body doesn’t respond to insulin as well as it should. Because it’s done in healthy people, it’s mainly looking at basic biology and may help guide future treatments.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18–90 - NCT02375802Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Stem cell treatment for pressure sores and some diabetic foot ulcers
This Phase 1 study tests whether injected stem cells can help wounds heal faster or better. It focuses on people with specific wound types and sizes, and checks safety and wound healing over weekly visits.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT02333604Recruiting
Cancer experience registry for patients and caregivers
This registry collects information about the experiences of people with cancer and the people who care for them. Joining could help researchers better understand needs and improve support, without requiring cancer treatment changes.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT02476786RecruitingPhase 2
Hormone treatment only for older ER-positive breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether using hormone (endocrine) treatment alone can control breast cancer in people age 70 and older. It targets breast cancers that are estrogen-receptor positive and HER2 negative, aiming to avoid chemotherapy-like treatments in suitable patients.
St Louis, MissouriAges 70 years+ - NCT02234388Recruiting
Registry for people with undifferentiated connective tissue disease
This is a study that enrolls people who have early or unclear signs of an autoimmune connective tissue problem. It aims to better understand these conditions over time, which may help future diagnosis and treatment planning.
