This study is testing a new inhaled treatment for pulmonary fibrosis, a condition that causes lung scarring. The treatment uses tiny fat bubbles (liposomes) coated with a special substance to target harmful cells in the lungs. The goal is to reduce inflammation and scarring. The …

This study tests a new method that uses real-time DNA sequencing to quickly identify bacterial infections in the lungs. Researchers want to see if it can give results faster than standard lab cultures and still be accurate. The study involves 100 adults with suspected lower respi…

This study was designed to learn more about different types of Candida fungus that cause serious bloodstream infections, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Researchers wanted to understand how these fungi become resistant to common antifungal drugs. However, the study was w…

This study examines whether people with certain blood cancers (MPN) have autoantibodies that block a key immune protein called interferon. Researchers want to see how common these autoantibodies are and if they make COVID-19 more severe. About 219 participants will give a blood s…

This study looks at how the variety of bacteria in the gut (gut microbiome) might influence how well immunotherapy works in people with solid tumors. Researchers will collect stool and blood samples from 70 cancer patients starting immunotherapy to track changes in gut bacteria a…

This study looks at how different dialysis filters impact immune cell damage in people on hemodialysis. About 30 patients will try two types of filters to see which one better reduces harmful substances in the blood and protects white blood cells. The goal is to understand how di…

This study is for adults with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), a condition that causes long-lasting pain. Researchers want to see if certain blood clotting factors are linked to how well patients respond to a treatment called neridronic acid. The goal is to better understan…

This study looks at gene activity in blood cells from 30 kidney or lung transplant patients with chronic rejection. Researchers want to find out why some patients respond well to a treatment called extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP), which uses light to modify blood cells, while …

This study looks back and forward at 400 people who had surgery to remove their voice box (laryngectomy) for throat cancer. The goal is to find out which patients are more likely to have a complication called a fistula (an abnormal opening) after surgery. Researchers are especial…

This study looks at 100 people with recurrent hypopharyngeal cancer who need salvage surgery. It compares two types of surgical flaps (free or pedicled) used to rebuild tissue after removing the tumor. The goal is to see which flap type leads to fewer complications.

This study watches 60 cancer patients who have a hidden form of hepatitis B (occult infection) to see if immunotherapy treatments cause the virus to become active again. Researchers will use new blood tests to detect early signs of reactivation. The goal is to better understand a…
