Targeted radiation for spinal metastases causing significant pain
This trial tests a focused form of radiation (stereotactic body radiation) to treat cancer spread to the spine, especially when it causes substantial pain. It may help shrink or control the spinal spots while limiting damage to surrounding tissues.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT03408353Recruiting
MERIT study uses mammogram and blood tests to assess breast cancer risk
This study looks for signs in blood samples and imaging that may help estimate breast cancer risk earlier. You would do a mammogram and give blood at the start and then again at yearly follow-up visits.
Houston, TexasAges 25–80 - NCT03414502RecruitingPhase 3
Predictors of Response to DMARDs in Rheumatoid Arthritis
This trial studies rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients starting or adjusting DMARD medicines and looks for signs that predict who responds best. It may help doctors choose more effective treatment sooner.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 19 years+ - NCT03417115Recruiting
Breast cancer registry study of treatment and outcomes
This is a registry study that collects real-world information about breast cancer care at the start of treatment. It may help researchers better understand which treatments work best for different groups of people.
Many LocationsAges 18 years+ - NCT03417622RecruitingPhase 3
Wide vs narrow breast surgery margins after lumpectomy
This study compares two ways of cutting the edge (margin) of tissue during lumpectomy after breast cancer treatment. It may help reduce the chance of the cancer coming back locally by testing whether a wider margin is better than a narrow one.
Al Mansurah, DKAges 18 years+ - NCT03418961RecruitingPhase 3
Study of heart-risk management for metastatic HER2 breast cancer
This trial follows people with metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer who are at higher risk for heart damage while on HER2-targeted therapy. Some participants are randomly assigned to different monitoring/heart-protection approaches to see what best helps keep the heart safe.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT03436069Recruiting
Finding new markers to predict breast cancer outlook
This study looks for new lab “markers” that may help predict how breast cancer is likely to behave over time. Your tumor or health information may be used to find factors that can guide doctors’ predictions.
GrenobleAges 18 years+ - NCT03449238RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Pembrolizumab with focused brain radiation for breast cancer brain spread
This trial studies whether pembrolizumab (an immune therapy medicine) plus stereotactic radiosurgery (focused radiation) can better control brain metastases from breast cancer. It may help shrink or slow growth of multiple brain spots with minimal treatment to surrounding tissue.
New York, New YorkAges 19–90 - NCT03448926Recruiting
DCIS test registry to guide radiation and drug decisions
This study collects information from people with breast ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) to see how a specific lab test (DCISionRT) may help predict who benefits from radiation and/or certain medications. Your results and clinical details are gathered during routine care, not necessarily to change treatment right away.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 30–85 - NCT03449264Recruiting
Database study for people with certain new cancers
This study builds a clinical and biological database for people newly diagnosed with certain cancers. It may help doctors better understand cancer patterns and improve future care, and it involves agreeing to extra blood samples.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT03451383Recruiting
Study brain changes in older breast cancer patients
This study follows older women with newly diagnosed breast cancer to see who might develop thinking or memory problems over time. It may help researchers understand early brain risk and how treatment and other factors relate to cognitive decline.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 60–105 - NCT03452774Recruiting
AI matches your cancer tests to possible treatment trials
This trial uses an AI system to help match people with certain cancer types and specific tumor test results (like gene or protein markers) to relevant clinical trials. It may help you and your doctor find studies that fit your cancer biology faster.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Any age - NCT03465150Recruiting
People with acne can join an acne patient study
This study creates a group (cohort) of patients treated for acne at a hospital to better understand acne care in real life. It may help improve future care by sharing what treatments people receive and how they do over time.
NantesAges Any age - NCT03463954Recruiting
Laser treatment trial for small breast tumors
This trial tests a focused laser treatment (Novilase®) to destroy small, cancerous breast tumors while aiming to work with standard care. It may help people who have an early, localized tumor that can be clearly seen on imaging so doctors can guide the laser safely.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03473912Recruiting
Rheumatoid disease biobank study for adults
This study asks adults with a rheumatoid condition to join a biobank, which is a safe place to store health information and biological samples for future research. It may help researchers better understand rheumatoid conditions and develop better treatments.
Kfar SabaAges 18–120 - NCT03526159RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gentamicin treatment for certain skin blistering disease
This trial tests gentamicin, an antibiotic, for junctional epidermolysis bullosa (JEB) caused by a specific kind of genetic change in the LAMB3 gene. It may help some people with this exact mutation, but you must meet several safety and genetic requirements to join.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT03536897Recruiting
Radiation registry after lumpectomy for certain early breast cancers
This study collects information about people with early-stage, hormone-receptor–positive breast cancer who have a lumpectomy and radiation. It may help doctors understand outcomes after this standard treatment and improve care for future patients.
Columbus, OhioAges 65 years+ - NCT03543839RecruitingPhase 4
Belimumab for early lupus activity in the first two years
This trial tests belimumab to see if it can improve lupus (SLE) disease activity in people who were diagnosed within the last two years. You may be eligible if your lupus is currently mild to moderate and your background lupus medicines are stable.
Manhasset, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT03549416Recruiting
BioDay Registry collects information on new eczema treatments
This registry study collects questionnaire information from people with atopic dermatitis (eczema) who are starting newer whole-body (systemic) treatments. It may help doctors better understand how these new options work in everyday care.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges birth+ - NCT03553420Recruiting
Registry for people with lipodystrophy
This is a study that keeps a medical record (a registry) of people with lipodystrophy, a condition where body fat is missing or unevenly distributed. It may help researchers understand different causes and patterns of the condition over time.
ViennaAges Any age - NCT03561740RecruitingPhase 3
Capecitabine plus usual treatment for high-risk HER2 breast cancer
This trial looks at whether adding a chemotherapy medicine called capecitabine (taken in smaller, regular doses) to the standard after-surgery (adjuvant) treatment can lower the chance of cancer coming back in people with early-stage, high-risk HER2-positive breast cancer. It targets patients who still had cancer left after earlier treatment or who had higher-risk tumor features.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT03563729RecruitingPhase 2
Melanoma in the brain: steroids plus targeted therapy
This Phase 2 trial studies how giving steroid medicine for brain swelling may help people with melanoma that has spread to the brain, and whether adding a targeted approach works for a specific genetic tumor type. It may help shrink brain tumors and improve symptoms, while comparing how patients respond.
Herlev, Capital RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT03567889RecruitingPhase 3
Injectable treatment before surgery for advanced melanoma
This trial tests whether an injected medicine placed directly into melanoma tumors before surgery can improve outcomes for melanoma that has spread to nearby lymph nodes/skin but can still be fully removed. It aims to shrink the cancer and reduce the chance it comes back after surgery.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT03572374Recruiting
Sharing breast cancer treatment plans with your workplace
