This study compares two types of robotic-arm assisted knee replacement surgery in 120 people with knee osteoarthritis. One group gets cementless implants, the other gets cemented implants. The main goal is to see which approach helps patients 'forget' they have an artificial knee…

This early-stage trial tests a drug called NIO752, given via spinal injection, to see if it can reduce production of tau protein in the brain. Tau buildup is linked to Alzheimer's damage. Ten people with mild to moderate Alzheimer's will receive either NIO752 or a placebo, and re…

This early-stage trial tests whether a new type of CAR T-cell therapy is safe for children and adults with T-cell leukemia or lymphoma that has come back or not responded to standard treatments. The therapy uses a patient's own immune cells, modified in a lab to target a protein …

This early-stage trial tests two types of engineered immune cells (CAR T cells) in 27 people with multiple myeloma that has come back or not responded to at least three prior treatments. One type targets a protein called BCMA on myeloma cells, and the other targets both BCMA and …
