Researchers at the University of Alabama at Birmingham are looking for premature babies to join a study about pulmonary hypertension—a condition where blood pressure in the lungs gets too high. The study will test different oxygen level targets to see which approach helps prevent or reduce lung problems in preterm infants. This trial is now actively recruiting participants and is expected to start in April 2026.
WHY IT MATTERSThis trial directly addresses a common complication in premature infants where improper oxygen management can cause lasting lung damage, making oxygen saturation targeting strategies critical for improving long-term outcomes in this vulnerable population.

Lumos Pharma is testing a new drug called LUM-201 in children who don't produce enough growth hormone naturally. This Phase 3 trial is the final stage of testing before the drug might be approved by the FDA. Researchers are actively recruiting children to participate and see if this treatment helps them grow taller.
WHY IT MATTERSThis is now actively recruiting children with growth hormone deficiency — families interested in potentially accessing LUM-201 before FDA approval should check eligibility requirements and contact the trial sites listed on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Researchers are testing whether combining three cancer drugs—nivolumab, ipilimumab, and cabozantinib—can help treat rare cancers of the bladder, kidney, prostate, and other urinary system organs. This phase 2 trial is actively recruiting 314 patients to see if this drug combination works better than current treatments. The study is being run by the National Cancer Institute.
WHY IT MATTERSThis trial offers patients with rare genitourinary cancers (like collecting duct carcinoma, kidney medullary carcinoma, and rare bladder variants) access to a novel three-drug combination that may be more effective than standard treatments currently available.
