- NCT04303988RecruitingPhase 2
Trial for brain metastases from triple-negative breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests a treatment for people with triple-negative breast cancer that has spread to the brain. It’s designed for situations where the cancer can’t be safely cured with surgery or focused radiation.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT04305834RecruitingPhase 2
Abemaciclib plus hormone pills for metastatic breast cancer in older adults
This Phase 2 study tests whether abemaciclib combined with standard hormone (endocrine) therapy can better control metastatic breast cancer in people age 70 and older. It may help if your cancer has already grown despite prior hormone therapy and/or other cancer medicines.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 70 years+ - NCT04320680Recruiting
Study visits for adults with lupus in Brest, France
This study focuses on people aged 18 and older with lupus who attend a multi-team clinic visit in Brest, France. It mainly looks at whether you can participate in the multidisciplinary consultation and its related study procedures.
BrestAges 18–80 - NCT04315233RecruitingPhase 1
Testing two drugs for hard-to-treat triple-negative breast and ovarian cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests ribociclib plus belinostat in people with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer or recurrent ovarian cancer. It also looks at your tumor’s genetics (from a fresh biopsy) to see who might respond better.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 18 years+ - NCT04318678RecruitingPhase 1
CD123 CAR T-cell therapy for relapsed leukemia and related cancers
This early-phase study tests a lab-made immune therapy (CD123 CAR T cells) for children and young adults up to age 21 whose cancer has come back or didn’t respond to treatment. The goal is to see if these CAR T cells can find and attack cancer cells that carry a marker called CD123.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Up to 21 years - NCT04330118Recruiting
Study immune cells in DRESS and drug rash reactions
This trial studies how certain immune cells (eosinophils) behave during severe drug reactions like DRESS and during milder drug rashes. It may help doctors understand what drives organ damage and improve how these reactions are managed.
ArrasAges 18 years+ - NCT04334031Recruiting
Hospital follow-up study for immune-related disease
This is a study that follows people with an immune-related illness at Lille University Hospital to better understand their care needs over time. By collecting information regularly, the study may help improve how future patients are monitored and treated.
LilleAges 18 years+ - NCT04342546Recruiting
Radiation skin side-effect test after mastectomy with implant
This trial looks at a test meant to predict how likely you are to develop side effects from radiation to the chest wall after mastectomy. It is designed for people getting immediate breast reconstruction using an implant, so treatment planning may be safer and more personalized.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT04345081Recruiting
Compare two breast surgery skin-sparing methods and recovery
This trial compares two types of mastectomy (with skin and nipple options) and implant reconstruction to see which gives better cosmetic results, comfort, and satisfaction. You may help doctors learn which approach leads to a better quality of life after surgery.
BudapestAges 18–65 - NCT04344496Recruiting
Collecting breast cancer tissue to predict recurrence risk
This study builds a “genome atlas” to better predict the chance that breast cancer will come back. It asks participants to share medical information and provide blood and tumor tissue samples, including samples kept in paraffin.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT04347473RecruitingPhase 4
ILUMYA plus halobetasol ointment for plaque psoriasis
This trial studies whether ILUMYA (an injection) working together with halobetasol ointment helps control moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. It is meant for adults whose psoriasis is significant enough that they may need light therapy (phototherapy) and/or pills/injections (systemic therapy).
East Windsor, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT04349527Recruiting
Comparing breast-conserving surgeries and how you feel after
This trial compares two breast-conserving surgery techniques to see how they affect cosmetic results (how the breast looks), quality of life, and patient satisfaction. It may help guide the best surgical approach for people eligible for breast conservation.
BudapestAges 18–65 - NCT04353557Recruiting
Blood test monitoring in early-stage breast cancer
This trial uses a special blood test to track cancer signals (called ctDNA) during and after treatment for early breast cancer. It aims to see whether monitoring these signals can help guide follow-up and treatment decisions.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT04354064Recruiting
Blood DNA test to see early treatment response in solid tumors
This study looks at circulating tumor DNA, which is tiny bits of DNA found in blood, to help assess how solid tumors are responding early. It uses blood samples from healthy adults who are willing to donate.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT04356209RecruitingPhase 2
Pravastatin for severe radiation breast scar tissue, with e-reports
This trial tests whether pravastatin can improve severe radiation-related breast scarring and breast-related quality of life. It also studies whether using an electronic patient questionnaire (e-PRO) helps patients’ outcomes and support during treatment.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT04356287RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Cord cell treatment for severe systemic sclerosis symptoms
This early-phase study tests whether umbilical cord-derived “cord blood–type” cells can reduce or improve severe systemic sclerosis (a type of hardening/scarring disease of connective tissue). It may help people whose current standard treatments haven’t worked or caused side effects.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT04356235Recruiting
Comparing immediate vs delayed breast implant reconstruction results
This study compares two timing options for rebuilding the breast with implants, looking at cosmetic results, quality of life, and patient satisfaction. It may help you understand which approach could fit you better and what to expect over follow-up time.
BudapestAges 18–65 - NCT04356755RecruitingPhase 2
Injections under the skin to heal scleroderma finger ulcers
This Phase 2 study tests whether injections under the skin can help heal painful, poor-circulation (ischemic) finger ulcers caused by scleroderma. It is for people whose ulcers have not improved with usual care.
GrenobleAges 18 years+ - NCT04359394Recruiting
Rare severe pustular psoriasis family DNA study network
This study builds a large international registry of people with rare, severe pustular psoriasis to help doctors understand the genetics of the condition. You may be asked for information and, if you have eligible family members, DNA testing to learn how the disease runs in families.
MünchenAges 6 months+ - NCT04362826Recruiting
Trial tests a probiotic to change gut microbes in breast cancer
This study gives a probiotic to see whether it safely changes the gut’s bacteria and fungi (your “microbiome”) in people with breast cancer. The researchers want to learn if this shift in gut microbes might support breast cancer treatment or health during care.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–65 - NCT04368702Recruiting
MRI-guided radiation for people needing radiation for cancer
This study tests whether radiation given with help from MRI (a type of scan) can better treat cancers that need radiation. You may be eligible if your cancer is confirmed and you can safely have MRI scans.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04370587RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Injecting a cancer medicine into tumors plus pembrolizumab
This Phase 1/2 study tests a medicine injected directly into a tumor, alone or with pembrolizumab (an immune-therapy drug given through a vein). It is for people with advanced or metastatic solid cancers that have grown despite standard treatments, aiming to improve tumor control.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04371913Recruiting
Second chance breast-conserving treatment for certain breast recurrences
This trial studies a personalized plan to remove and re-treat a limited breast recurrence while trying to keep the breast. It may help people whose cancer came back in the same breast after prior breast-conserving treatment, with certain size and spread limits.
Brooklyn, New YorkAges 19–90 - NCT04372277RecruitingPhase 4
Adding Enstilar to Taltz for plaque psoriasis
This trial studies whether using Enstilar (a medicated skin spray/foam) together with Taltz works better than staying on Taltz alone for chronic plaque psoriasis. It focuses on adults with a specific amount of body skin affected by psoriasis who have already been on Taltz for at least 24 weeks.
