This study is testing whether adding a newer drug called avacopan to standard treatment helps people with a severe autoimmune disease that attacks the kidneys (ANCA-associated vasculitis). It will enroll 130 adults with very poor kidney function to see if the combination treatmen…

This early-stage study aims to find out if stem cells from a donor's fat tissue are safe to give to people with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. Nine participants will receive the cells through an IV, starting with a low dose to check for side effects. The main goal is to se…

This study is testing whether injections of donor stem cells around the mouth can reduce scarring and tightness caused by systemic scleroderma. It will compare the stem cell treatment against a placebo injection in 50 adults with significant mouth disability. The main goal is to …

This study is comparing two procedures to treat a benign adrenal gland tumor that causes high blood pressure and low potassium. Researchers want to see if a less invasive heat treatment called radiofrequency ablation works as well as traditional surgery to correct the hormone imb…

This study aims to see if MRI scans can better identify invasive cancers in the upper urinary tract (kidneys and ureters) compared to current CT scans. Researchers will enroll 178 adults with suspected tumors and compare MRI results with tissue analysis to determine accuracy. The…

This study is testing a new observation checklist designed to help healthcare professionals spot very early signs of developmental issues in babies born very prematurely. Researchers want to see if different trained therapists agree when using the checklist to assess videos of ba…

This study is testing whether a special type of brain scan called [18F]-DPA-714 PET can detect inflammation in the brain of people with autoimmune encephalitis. Researchers will compare brain scans from 40 patients with autoimmune encephalitis to scans from healthy people. The go…

This study aims to see if adding hypnosis or virtual reality sessions to standard hospital care can help reduce anxiety and stress for adults newly diagnosed with a serious blood cancer (acute myeloid leukemia). Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either standard ca…

This study aims to see if an intensive, music-based rehabilitation program can help children with complex neurodevelopmental disorders. Six children will participate in a 5-day program using drumming and rhythm exercises. Researchers will measure if this training improves their a…

This study is testing a new program to help elderly people in nursing homes hear and communicate better. It involves using a simple hearing device and training for both residents and staff. The goal is to see if this approach reduces the isolation, fatigue, and depression often c…

This study aims to better understand the daily life experiences of women with MRKH syndrome, a rare condition where a woman is born without a uterus and often without a fully formed vagina. Researchers will compare the quality of life, sexual health, and psychological wellbeing o…

This study aims to create a detailed map showing which brain areas control different thinking skills like memory, language, and perception. Researchers will test 120 brain tumor patients before and during their awake surgeries to see how removing or stimulating specific areas aff…

This study aims to test whether artificial intelligence (AI) models can predict how Parkinson's disease will progress and how patients might respond to medications. It will enroll 100 people with Parkinson's who will use a smartwatch and mobile app to collect daily health data. T…

This study aims to understand how working at high altitude affects sleep quality. Researchers will measure sleep patterns in 32 Pic du Midi employees, comparing nights spent at home versus nights spent at the 2,877-meter summit. The goal is to gather objective data about sleep ch…

This study aims to understand how people with memory problems from specific brain injuries can still learn new facts and information. Researchers will work with 150 participants who have memory disorders and use MRI brain scans along with memory tests to identify what brain areas…

This study aims to test if a new, portable, low-power MRI machine can work at a patient's bedside to help doctors predict recovery from a coma caused by cardiac arrest. It will compare brain scans from this portable machine to those from standard, powerful hospital MRI machines i…

This study aims to find new ways to spot the earliest signs of Alzheimer's disease long before memory problems begin. Researchers will test 100 healthy older adults, using special brain scans and detailed eye-tracking tests to look for subtle changes linked to Alzheimer's risk. T…

This study aims to find out how many obese people with sleep apnea continue to have breathing problems at night while using their CPAP machines. Researchers will measure nighttime breathing in 139 patients who have been using CPAP for at least 3 months. The goal is to better unde…
