The program uses multiple approaches, including mobile technology and community support, to reduce HIV risk. This trial is now accepting participants and will run through 2026.
WHY IT MATTERSThis trial is actively recruiting young MSM (men who have sex with men) ages 18-24 who want to learn evidence-based HIV prevention strategies through a mobile app and peer support program.
Clinical trialUNITERAREApr 3
Researchers are looking for African American cancer survivors to join a study about genetic testing. The study will test a new approach designed specifically for African American communities to help more people get tested for inherited cancer genes. Genetic testing can show if someone has genes that increase cancer risk, which helps with prevention and treatment planning.
WHY IT MATTERSThis trial addresses a critical gap: African American cancer survivors are significantly underrepresented in genetic testing programs, meaning many miss opportunities for personalized cancer prevention and family screening.
Clinical trialUNITERAREApr 3
Researchers are looking for patients with gastroesophageal cancer (cancer of the food pipe and stomach) that has spread to the brain. This study will compare the genetic makeup of the original tumor with the cancer that spread to the brain to understand if they're the same or different. This information could help doctors choose better treatments for patients whose cancer has spread to the brain.
WHY IT MATTERSIf you have gastroesophageal cancer with brain metastases, this trial could help researchers understand why your cancer spread to the brain and potentially lead to more targeted treatment options in the future.
Clinical trialUNITERAREApr 3
Researchers at the University of Alberta are looking for participants for a study about preventing a serious lung infection called VAP (ventilator-associated pneumonia) in newborn babies. This infection happens when babies on breathing machines in the hospital develop pneumonia. The study will track cases across the country and test ways to stop this infection from happening.
WHY IT MATTERSIf your newborn is in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) on a ventilator, this trial could help identify prevention strategies that reduce the risk of developing a serious secondary infection during their hospital stay.
