Inflammatory markers in vocal cord lesions
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study looks at whether routine blood tests can show signs of inflammation linked to growths on the vocal cords. It may help doctors understand these lesions better without extra procedures.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study examines vocal cord lesions, like 'bamboo' nodes, that cause voice changes (dysphonia) in people with autoimmune diseases such as lupus or rheumatoid arthritis. It aims to better understand and characterize these lesions to improve diagnosis and treatment.
This study uses voice recordings and special camera images of the voice box to better understand different voice problems, including cancer and non-cancerous growths. It may help improve diagnosis and treatment planning.
This study looks at blood tests to find markers of inflammation in people newly diagnosed with B-cell blood cancers (such as certain lymphomas, leukemias, and multiple myeloma). It may help doctors better understand these diseases and how they affect the body.
This trial tests if injecting a steroid combined with hyaluronidase into vocal cord lesions can help people with voice problems who cannot or will not do voice therapy. It's for those with small, non-cancerous growths who aren't candidates for surgery.
This study looks at how your voice sounds to help doctors better understand laryngotracheal stenosis, a narrowing of the windpipe and voice box. You'll use a phone app to record your voice, which may help improve future care for people with this condition.
This study looks at inflammation-related lab markers in people with “Ph-negative” myeloproliferative neoplasms (like PV, ET, or PMF) to see how they relate to outcomes and response to treatment. It’s observational, meaning it gathers information from medical records without testing a new treatment.
