This study tests a new approach for a rare and aggressive brain tumor called butterfly glioblastoma, which crosses both sides of the brain and has a very poor outlook. The treatment combines open surgery to remove as much tumor as possible from one side, followed by a minimally i…

This trial tests whether giving surfactant through a small tube while babies breathe with high-flow nasal cannula support can reduce the need for invasive ventilation. The study includes infants born 2-6 weeks early who have respiratory distress. Researchers will compare outcomes…

This study tests a closed-loop automated oxygen control device in 76 preterm infants born before 34 weeks who need breathing support. The device automatically adjusts oxygen levels to keep them in a safe range, aiming to reduce the time babies need extra oxygen and lower the risk…

This study tests whether biodegradable stents can safely open narrowed bile ducts in 20 people with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). The stents are placed during an endoscopic procedure and dissolve over time, aiming to improve symptoms like itching and fatigue and prevent t…

This phase 3 trial tests whether adding surgery (vitrectomy, clot-busting drug, and gas bubble) to standard anti-VEGF injections can improve vision more than injections alone for people with a macular bleed from wet AMD. About 210 participants across Europe will be randomly assig…

This study tests whether a single clinic visit with a special attention exercise can help people with Functional Cognitive Disorder (FCD), a condition causing memory and thinking problems without a clear physical cause. About 30 adults aged 65 or younger will try the intervention…

This pilot study investigates whether changes in the body clock, influenced by light exposure, are linked to delirium in critical care patients. Researchers will measure light levels at the bedside, collect blood samples to check for body clock markers and proteins related to del…

This study looks at whether it's possible to run a larger trial of a community-based program called Good Boost+ for adults waiting for knee replacement surgery. The program includes weekly group water exercises and land-based exercises, plus peer support. Researchers will measure…

This study tests easier methods to measure how well the kidneys can handle extra work (kidney reserve). It involves 44 adults with sickle cell kidney disease or who have donated a kidney. Participants take a protein drink, and researchers check changes in a blood test called eGFR…

This study is testing a new device that uses small electric pulses to destroy colon polyps during a colonoscopy. Researchers want to see if it is safe and effective for removing polyps. Thirty adults with at least one polyp larger than 5mm in the lower colon will be enrolled. The…
