Online app study for brain inflammation lifestyle data
This study uses a digital platform (app/website) to collect lifestyle and symptom information to better understand brain inflammation. You may qualify if you have certain conditions like Long COVID, migraines, autoimmune disease, inflammatory gut issues, mood disorders, or if you are a healthy comparison person.

ParisAges 15 years+ - NCT04817072Recruiting
Studying mood changes in inflammatory arthritis patients on biologics
This study looks at how mood disorders (like depression or anxiety) affect people with chronic inflammatory joint diseases when they use biologic medicines. It may help doctors understand which patients are at higher mood-risk and how to monitor them.
BesançonAges 18–80 - NCT04817566Recruiting
Brain stimulation and training for thinking problems after breast cancer
This study tests whether brain stimulation plus cognitive training can improve thinking and memory problems in women after chemotherapy for breast cancer. It may help if you still feel “foggy” or have trouble concentrating months after treatment.
GreifswaldAges 18–65 - NCT04824027Recruiting
Breast ultrasound testing during chemotherapy for breast cancer
This study looks at how breast tissue changes during chemotherapy given before surgery (neoadjuvant therapy). It may help doctors better understand treatment effects by taking special breast measurements.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04826744Recruiting
Atopic dermatitis study tracking eyelid involvement
This study looks at how often the eyelids are affected in adults with atopic dermatitis (a long-term skin condition). It may help doctors better understand patterns of skin and eyelid symptoms so care can be improved.
LilleAges 18 years+ - NCT04841148RecruitingPhase 2
Avelumab or hydroxychloroquine to target hidden breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding different medicines—either avelumab or hydroxychloroquine, with or without palbociclib—can eliminate dormant “leftover” breast cancer cells. It’s meant for people with hormone-receptor–positive breast cancer who have no visible cancer now, but still have detectable dormant cells in the bone marrow.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04842812RecruitingPhase 1
Personalized immune cell therapy for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1 study tests engineered immune cells (TILs/CAR-TILs) made from your tumor to treat advanced solid cancers that have not responded to standard treatments. It may help your immune system better recognize and attack the cancer, but it is mainly focused on safety and early results.
GuangzhouAges 18–85 - NCT04843865Recruiting
Chinese herbal add-on for joint pain from letrozole
This trial studies whether Chinese herbs, used alongside letrozole, can reduce ongoing joint and muscle pain or stiffness in postmenopausal women with hormone-receptor positive breast cancer. It’s mainly for people whose pain started or worsened after beginning letrozole and who have completed cancer treatments.
Bukit Bintang, Kuala LumpurAges 18 years+ - NCT04846959Recruiting
Pregnancy outcomes study for people exposed to risankizumab
This study looks at pregnancy outcomes in people who took risankizumab during pregnancy (or shortly before getting pregnant). It compares them with pregnancies exposed to similar biologic medicines, to better understand risks and what to expect.
Morrisville, North CarolinaAges Any age - NCT04848870Recruiting
Check dental and gum health in Sjögren’s disease
This study looks at dental and gum (periodontal) health in adults with Sjögren’s syndrome. It may help researchers understand how Sjögren’s affects the mouth and how patients can be supported better.
Ivry-sur-Seine, Île-de-France RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT04851119RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tegavivint for kids and young adults with hard-to-treat solid tumors
This early-phase study tests tegavivint to see how well it works and how safe it is for children and young adults with solid cancers that have come back or are not responding. It may be an option if your tumor type (including certain lymphomas or desmoid tumors) matches the study’s rules.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1–30 - NCT04852887RecruitingPhase 3
Testing shorter breast radiation after low-risk hormone breast cancer
This Phase 3 trial studies whether “less intense” radiation can work as well as standard radiation for certain early-stage hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative breast cancers that have a low Oncotype DX score. It may help reduce treatment burden while keeping cancer control strong.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 50–70 - NCT04855435RecruitingPhase 1
Study drug for advanced melanoma and other solid tumors
This Phase 1 trial studies a new experimental immunotherapy (MBS8) for people with advanced solid tumors, focusing first on safety and early signs of benefit. Depending on your cancer type and past treatments, you may receive MBS8 alone or combined with pembrolizumab.
HerlevAges 18 years+ - NCT04864886Recruiting
Study how immune-related conditions affect metabolism
This study collects blood and other samples to see how the immune system changes “metabolism” (how your body uses energy) in people with immune-related conditions. Your samples may also be stored for future research and could help researchers better understand immune health.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–75 - NCT04868578Recruiting
Vitamin PPI supplements for ectopic calcification in PXE
This trial studies whether taking PPI-type supplements can slow or reduce unwanted calcification in people with PXE. It’s meant to help manage disease changes caused by abnormal calcium deposits, based on your medical testing.

BTX-A51 for advanced solid tumors and breast cancer patients
This Phase 1 study tests BTX-A51, an experimental treatment, in people with advanced cancers that can’t be cured with standard options. It mainly focuses on safety, side effects, and whether the drug can start helping certain tumors.
Lake Mary, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04874038RecruitingPhase 3
Lidocaine infusions to prevent long-lasting pain after breast surgery
This Phase 3 study tests whether receiving lidocaine through an IV during breast surgery can lower the chance of ongoing pain afterward. If it works, it may help some people avoid chronic, surgery-related pain in the chest wall, shoulder, or arm.

AI blood tests for triple-negative breast cancer after treatment
This study uses a computer (AI) to read results from blood tests to look for signs of remaining triple-negative breast cancer, before and/or after surgery. It may help doctors better detect residual tumor and guide follow-up care.
London, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT04875715RecruitingPhase 4
