Acute Pancreatitis clinical trials in Minnesota
We’re tracking 10 recruiting acute pancreatitis studies with a site in Minnesota — including Phase 1/Phase 2, Phase 2 and Phase 4 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Minnesota
- NCT05350371RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing pirfenidone to treat severe acute pancreatitis
This early-stage hospital study tests whether pirfenidone is safe and tolerable for people with acute pancreatitis that may become severe. It may help by reducing the risk of complications, while researchers carefully track side effects.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–85 - NCT00830557Recruiting
Share information and donate tissue samples for pancreatic illnesses
This study collects health information and tissue samples from people with pancreatic cancer or other pancreatic conditions. Your participation may help researchers better understand these diseases and improve future care.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06729996RecruitingPhase 2
Comparing two diabetes medicines for pancreatitis-related diabetes
This trial tests whether pioglitazone or empagliflozin is better at managing diabetes caused by chronic or recurrent pancreatitis. You will take one of these pills daily for 6 months and track your blood sugar and ketones at home. The goal is to find a safer, more effective treatment for this type of diabetes.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–80 - NCT06253117RecruitingPhase 2
Testing pirfenidone to prevent repeat pancreatitis attacks
This trial tests if pirfenidone, an anti-scarring drug, can reduce the number of repeat episodes of acute pancreatitis. You may be eligible if you've had two or more pancreatitis attacks at least three months apart and are not having an active attack right now.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–85 - NCT05197920Recruiting
Study of diabetes after acute pancreatitis
This study looks at why some people develop diabetes after acute pancreatitis and how that process works in the body. It may help doctors better predict risk and tailor care for people recovering from pancreatitis.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18–75 - NCT06401577Recruiting
Acute pancreatitis and diabetes risk study
This study looks at how acute pancreatitis affects blood sugar and the risk of developing diabetes. You'll wear a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) sensor and have metabolic tests to track changes over time.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18–75 - NCT06477159RecruitingPhase 4
Enzyme replacement for acute pancreatitis recovery
This trial tests whether a pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) can help people who still have digestive problems after a recent episode of acute pancreatitis. The goal is to see if it improves symptoms like stomach pain, bloating, or diarrhea.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06899087Recruiting
Signals of infected pancreatic necrosis from blood
This trial collects blood samples from people with infected pancreatic necrosis to find patterns that help diagnose the condition. The goal is to reduce the need for invasive tests and start treatment faster.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06651580Recruiting
Gene study for kids with pancreas problems
This study collects samples like blood or tissue from children with pancreatitis to look for gene changes that might raise their risk. It helps doctors learn more about why some children get pancreas inflammation.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges Up to 17 years - NCT05334069Recruiting
Blood test study for early cancer detection in patients
This study collects blood from people with cancer and people without cancer (or with possible cancer) to test whether new blood tests can detect cancer earlier. Your blood samples help researchers evaluate how well these tests work.

What taking part in a acute pancreatitis study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there acute pancreatitis clinical trials in Minnesota?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 10 recruiting acute pancreatitis studies with a site in Minnesota, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a acute pancreatitis study in Minnesota?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Minnesota to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Minnesota, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a acute pancreatitis trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New acute pancreatitis studies open in Minnesota regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
