Featured Studies

Doctors at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are looking for healthy women to compare with women who have experienced implantation failure, early pregnancy loss, or recurrent pregnancy loss. Researchers want to look at the uterine lining, called the endometrium, to understand its role in implantation and miscarriage.

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is one of the most common human viruses. It is the primary cause of infectious mononucleosis (mono) and is linked to several cancers. The NIH Clinical Center is looking for healthy volunteers aged 18-29 years living in the DC, Maryland, and Virginia areas to screen for investigational EBV vaccine research. If you meet screening requirements, consider joining to help research into stopping the spread of EBV.

Doctors at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are looking for women, between the age of 18-42 years old for a research study investigating recurrent implantation failure, early pregnancy loss, recurrent pregnancy loss. Researchers want to look at the uterine lining, called the endometrium, to understand its role in implantation and miscarriage.

The standard treatment for recurrent prostate cancer is radiation to the prostate bed over 6-7 weeks after removing the prostate gland. Dr. Deborah Citrin at the National Cancer Institute is conducting a study to see if a shortened or compressed radiation treatment schedule of 2, 3, or 4 weeks can be as effective as standard treatments.

Researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in Bethesda, MD seek volunteers diagnosed with mild to moderate psoriasis to participate in a research study. Psoriasis causes chronic inflammation in the body. The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute researchers want to see if a specific form of vitamin B3 dietary supplement can improve the immune system function in the blood and skin of people with mild to moderate psoriasis. This research may lead to more information that could provide other treatment options for patients diagnosed with psoriasis.

Heart disease is the leading cause of death and disability in the United States. Omega-7 fatty acids are found in the oil extracted from certain fish and nuts like macadamia. Palmitoleic acid is one of the most common omega-7 fatty acids. Many studies suggest that this oil is good for heart health. Researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) want to find out more about these potential benefits.

Researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are testing NX-2127, an oral drug that degrades a protein in cancer cells called Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK), instead of inhibiting or blocking it like other drugs. NX-2127 may also stimulate your immune T-cells to attack the cancer.

Researchers at the Obesity and Diabetes Clinical Research Section at the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) in Phoenix, AZ seek generally healthy, adults who are 18-55 years old to participate in an inpatient clinical study. This study investigates the amount of food a person eats when the body's metabolic rate is changed. Investigators want to see how much food is eaten when the body's temperature is cooled. The study will also see if not eating for an entire day will change someone's eating habits the next day.
