This study is testing a new method to personalize chemotherapy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Researchers will grow miniature 3D models of a patient's tumor in a lab to test which chemotherapy drugs work best before treatment begins. They will compare survival rates for pati…

This study is testing whether adding a focused ultrasound treatment to standard drug therapy helps men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. It will enroll 116 men whose cancer is still sensitive to hormone-blocking treatments. Researchers want…

This study is for people who had a heart attack, received a stent, and have a common stomach bacteria called H. pylori. These patients take blood-thinning drugs that increase the risk of serious stomach bleeding. Researchers want to see if a short, 14-day course of two specific d…

This study compares three different approaches for people who have stones in both their gallbladder and bile duct. Researchers want to see which method works best: a newer procedure that removes stones while keeping the gallbladder, the standard surgery that removes the gallbladd…

This study is testing whether injecting two drugs directly into the abdomen is safe and effective for treating fluid buildup (ascites) caused by advanced stomach cancer. The first part of the study will find a safe dose, and the second part will see how well the combination contr…

This study is testing a new way to choose chemotherapy drugs for patients after surgery for muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Researchers will grow tiny 3D models of a patient's own tumor in the lab and test different chemotherapy drugs on them to see which ones work best. The goal…

This study is testing whether replacing regular starchy foods like bread or rice with quinoa can help people with early-stage type 2 diabetes better control their blood sugar and improve their metabolism. Researchers will compare two groups of 60 participants over 14 weeks: one e…

This study is testing a new, personalized approach to treat advanced cancers that are no longer responding to standard therapies. Doctors will take a small sample of a patient's tumor and grow it in a lab to create a 'mini-tumor' model. They will then test many different cancer d…

This study is testing a new, personalized method to choose the best drug for patients with advanced bladder cancer that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery. Researchers will grow tiny 3D models of a patient's own tumor in the lab to test which drug it responds to best, and…

This study is testing a new artificial intelligence (AI) system designed to help doctors during routine stomach exams. The AI analyzes images from the exam to automatically spot and score a pre-cancerous condition called gastric intestinal metaplasia. Researchers will enroll 3,00…

This study is testing a new type of heart scan called magnetocardiography (MCG). The goal is to see if this scan can quickly and accurately detect reduced blood flow to the heart in people who come to the hospital with chest pain. Researchers will compare the new scan's results t…

This study compares two approaches for treating pancreatic and bile duct diseases. Patients will either receive a standard ERCP procedure or have an ultrasound done during the same session before the ERCP. Researchers want to see if the ultrasound helps doctors better plan the tr…

This study is testing a new artificial intelligence (AI) system designed to help doctors identify and classify different types of solid growths in the pancreas during a standard ultrasound exam. The AI will analyze video from the procedure along with patient data to see if it can…

This study is testing a new, non-invasive scanning method called magnetocardiography (MCG) to see if it can accurately detect and locate heart attacks. Researchers will enroll about 3,800 people, including healthy volunteers and patients with chest pain, to build a computer model…

This study is testing whether using virtual reality (VR) to simulate familiar home settings can help people recover arm and hand function after a stroke. Researchers will compare VR-assisted training to standard rehabilitation methods in 86 participants who had a stroke 1 to 6 mo…

This study is testing if watching videos or real-life eating can help stroke patients who have trouble swallowing. Researchers will compare three groups: standard therapy, therapy plus watching videos of swallowing, and therapy plus watching a family member eat in real life. The …

This study is testing whether a new, long-lasting numbing medicine (liposomal bupivacaine) works better than a standard one (ropivacaine) at reducing pain after major abdominal surgery. Doctors will inject one of these medicines into the surgical area right before closing the inc…

This study aims to understand how chemical tags on DNA (methylation) differ in patients with severe hepatitis B-related liver failure. Researchers will analyze blood samples from 100 patients to identify patterns linked to better or worse outcomes. The goal is to build a predicti…

This study aims to understand the biological causes of narcolepsy, a rare sleep disorder. Researchers will analyze body fluids like blood and spinal fluid from 60 people with narcolepsy and compare them to healthy volunteers. The goal is to find unique biological markers that cou…
