-
Methylation analyses using home-based self-sampling in women with and without gynecological disease
This study tests whether self-collected urine and vaginal samples can reveal DNA methylation markers that distinguish people with gynecological (pre-)cancers from cancer-free controls.
-
Methylation markers in self-samples to help detect gynecological cancers
This study tests whether self-collected urine and vaginal samples can reveal DNA methylation or other genetic markers that indicate endometrial, ovarian, vulvar, or vaginal cancers in women who are at risk or have postmenopausal bleeding.
-
Movement improves balance and touch in older adults with type 2 diabetes
This study tests whether a 12-week exercise program, with or without extra balance training, can improve balance for people 60 and older with type 2 diabetes.
-
Prevalence and possible role of non-H. pylori Helicobacter species in gastric conditions and cancers
Researchers will test stomach tissue from people with functional dyspeasia, various gastritis conditions, gastric cancer, and bariatric patients to see if non-H. pylori Helicobacter species are present.
-
Boosted compression for lower limb edema
This study tests whether applying a multicomponent short-stretch bandage three times daily (boosted compression) helps reduce edema faster in people with chronic edema or lymphedema of the legs, compared with the standard single daily bandage.
-
First-void urine collection device: try and refine instructions and usability
We’re testing a new first-void urine collection device to see if the instructions are clear and the device is easy to use for people who have not used it before.
-
Using urine to study immune responses to chlamydia
This study tests whether first-void urine and self-collected vaginal swabs can reveal immune signals against Chlamydia trachomatis in adult women who test positive.
-
Eat, Sleep, Cry - Repeat: a parent coaching program to help with infant self-regulation
A structured parenting program for families with 3‑month‑old infants showing early regulatory problems is tested to see if it lowers parental stress and boosts parental confidence, and whether infant regulatory problems improve by around 12 months.
-
Using first-void urine to observe how HPV16 antibodies interact with the virus before and after HPV vaccination
This trial will test whether giving two doses of Gardasil 9 to HPV16-positive women aged 18–45 reduces infectious virus in first-void urine and increases HPV-specific antibodies detectable in that urine.
-
High-intensity interval training for persistent inflammatory shoulder pain
This study will try short sessions of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) in adults with long-term shoulder pain thought to be driven by low-grade inflammation to see if the exercise is acceptable and whether inflammation and pain-related measures change.
-
How reliable surface EMG is for measuring muscle fatigue in teens
We will test whether surface EMG gives consistent measurements of muscle fatigue in healthy adolescents when they perform repeated squats on two occasions one week apart.
-
Combining PET scans and bone marrow genetic testing to better predict relapse in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients
This project tries combining FDG PET/LDCT imaging and whole-exome sequencing of bone marrow to detect minimal residual disease and better predict progression for transplant-eligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients.
-
Kinesio taping for chronic breast and truncal oedema after breast cancer treatment
This trial tests whether adding kinesio tape to standard decongestive lymphatic therapy helps women with persistent (more than 6 months) breast or truncal swelling after breast cancer treatment.
-
Personalized exercise to prevent chemotherapy-related nerve damage
This study will see if a tailored exercise program can prevent nerve-related symptoms in adults getting taxane- or platinum-based chemotherapy for breast, gynecological, or colon cancer.
-
Effects of shock wave therapy on surgical scars
This study is testing whether shock wave therapy can help improve the appearance and symptoms of surgical scars in patients who have had procedures like tummy tucks and breast reductions.
-
Developing a new test for cervical cancer using self-collected samples
This study is testing a new way to screen for cervical cancer using self-collected urine and vaginal samples to see if it works better than traditional methods.
-
Exploring how visiting green areas affects the human microbiome
This study is testing whether spending time in green spaces can change the bacteria on our skin and in our noses for both kids and adults.
-
Analyzing balance and walking in older adults during head movements
This study looks at how older adults keep their balance and walk when their heads move in different ways to see if it can help prevent falls.
-
eHealth program for managing persistent pain after breast cancer treatment
This study tests if an online program using a chatbot can help people with ongoing pain after breast cancer treatment manage their pain better than regular care or in-person rehab.
-
Comparing Dry Needling and Botulinum Toxin for Post-Stroke Spasticity
This study is testing whether dry needling can help reduce muscle tightness in the legs of stroke survivors just as well as a common injection treatment.
-
Using ultrasound to assess soft tissue changes after breast cancer treatment
This study tests if regular 2D ultrasound can help understand how breast cancer treatment changes soft tissue around the breast and arm in patients, especially looking at those who have or don’t have arm problems.
-
Analyzing outcomes of septorhinoplasty procedures
This study is trying to see how well septorhinoplasty surgery helps people breathe better and feel happier about their nose over the course of a year.

Where are these trials running?
In 3 countries. The most sites are in Belgium (22 trials), Canada (1 trial), Spain (1 trial). Each study page lists its sites and which ones are recruiting.
What phases are they in?
Phase 2/3: 1, Phase 2: 1. Trials with no phase listed are usually device, behavioural or observational studies.
How do I join one?
Open a study, check the "Is this trial a fit for you?" section, then contact the study team listed on the page. They will ask a few screening questions. Asking is free and does not commit you to anything. Talk it over with your doctor first.
