This study compares two surgical approaches for early cervical cancer. One group will have traditional open surgery, while the other will have a less invasive procedure using a special stapler designed to prevent cancer cells from spreading during the operation. Researchers want …

This study follows patients for the long term after they received an experimental stem cell injection for rotator cuff disease. Researchers want to see if the treatment remains safe and effective over many years by tracking pain levels, shoulder function, and any side effects. On…

This study is testing a new three-drug combination for people newly diagnosed with Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia, a rare blood cancer. It will see if adding a new drug called nemtabrutinib to two existing drugs (bortezomib and rituximab) is safe and effective at controlling the…

This early-stage trial is testing a new combination of three drugs—golcadomide, poseltinib, and rituximab—for adults with an aggressive type of blood cancer called diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that has come back or stopped responding to prior treatment. The main goal is …

This early-stage study is testing a new way to deliver chemotherapy directly into the abdomen for women with recurrent ovarian cancer that has stopped responding to standard platinum drugs. Doctors will spray a chemotherapy drug (paclitaxel) as a fine mist during a minimally inva…

This study aims to find out which of two common IV fluids is safer for the kidneys when given during major heart surgery. It will compare a starch-based fluid with a standard saltwater solution in about 1,300 patients. The main goal is to see which fluid leads to fewer serious ki…

This study aims to find the best order of treatment for adults with advanced kidney cancer that has spread. Researchers want to know if having surgery to remove the main kidney tumor immediately, followed by immunotherapy drugs, works better than starting with the drugs first and…

This study aims to find the safest way to reduce steroid use in people with rheumatoid arthritis who have been taking low doses long-term. Researchers will compare two different tapering methods over six months in 206 patients to see which better maintains disease control while r…

This study aims to find the best way to deliver a specific anesthesia drug during brain bypass surgery for Moyamoya disease. Researchers will compare two delivery methods—a computer-controlled pump versus manual control—to see which uses less total medication. The goal is to help…

This study aims to see how accurately a wearable glucose monitor works for patients having heart surgery. Researchers will compare the monitor's readings to standard blood tests taken during and after the operation. The goal is to understand if this device can reliably track bloo…

This study is testing a new way to check if a liver cancer radiation treatment called radioembolization is safe for a patient's lungs. Researchers will compare a new 'scout dose' method using the actual treatment beads against the current standard test in 30 patients with liver t…

This study aims to see if using artificial intelligence to analyze simple ECG heart tracings can effectively screen for heart structure and function problems in people with atrial fibrillation (AF). Researchers will compare this AI-ECG approach to the current standard of routine …

This study aims to find the smallest effective amount of IV fluids that, when given with a blood pressure medication, prevents dangerous drops in blood pressure during spinal anesthesia for planned cesarean sections. Researchers will test different fluid volumes in 45 healthy pre…

This study investigates whether listening to special sound frequencies called binaural beats during breast reconstruction surgery can reduce the amount of anesthesia drugs patients need. Researchers will compare 88 patients wearing earphones playing these sounds to patients weari…

This study aims to see if a new anesthesia combination leads to a calmer, smoother recovery when patients wake up after nasal surgery. Researchers will compare two different intravenous anesthesia methods in 204 adults. The main goal is to see which method causes less agitation, …

This study is exploring whether a 12-week therapy program delivered through a smartphone app can help improve how children and teenagers with cochlear implants hear music and speech. About 25 participants will use the app at home and have their hearing skills tested before, durin…

This study aims to understand why some people with a chronic lung infection called NTM-PD get worse and need antibiotic treatment, while others stay stable. Researchers will observe 50 adults with the disease, analyzing their immune cells from lung fluid and blood, and assessing …

This study aims to find out which of two common video laryngoscope blade designs is better for successfully placing a breathing tube on the first try in adults having surgery. Researchers will compare the tools in over 500 patients and use the data to build a computer model. The …

This study aims to create a better tool for predicting which older adults might experience complications after major surgery. Researchers will follow 520 patients aged 65+ before and after their operations, collecting detailed health information. They'll use this data to build pr…

This study aims to learn if analyzing immune cells from a patient's lung fluid, along with a standard tumor marker (PD-L1), can better predict how well someone with advanced lung cancer will respond to treatment. Researchers will collect lung fluid and tumor tissue from 60 patien…
