Recruiting studies in Illinois
- NCT06456541Recruiting
Testing a new infant formula for children with cow's milk allergy
This study tests a new formula designed for children diagnosed with cow's milk allergy. It evaluates whether the formula is safe and well-tolerated.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 3 months–12 years - NCT06832189RecruitingPhase 1
Testing everolimus and epoetin for liver transplant tolerance
This trial is testing whether a combination of two drugs, everolimus and epoetin, can help liver transplant recipients gradually reduce their anti-rejection medicines. If successful, it may lead to long-term transplant tolerance with fewer side effects.

Intensive early HIV treatment in newborns to aim for remission
This study gives very early, intensive HIV medicine to infants diagnosed with HIV and follows them closely to see if HIV can go into remission (stop being detectable without ongoing treatment). It may help families understand whether treating right after birth can change a child’s long-term HIV outlook.
Chicago, IllinoisAges Up to 2 days - NCT05272241Recruiting
Asthma registry that helps researchers learn about asthma
This study enrolls people in specific cities to collect health information that helps researchers better understand asthma and how to recruit future studies. It may help by improving knowledge about asthma types and care in real-world settings.
Chicago, IllinoisAges Any age - NCT07040319RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2

Ublituximab for antibody-positive IMNM
This study tests an investigational medication called ublituximab (an infusion) for people with a rare autoimmune muscle disease called IMNM. It aims to reduce muscle weakness and damage by targeting specific immune cells (B cells). To join, you need a recent diagnosis (within 1 year), specific antibodies, and be on limited other medications.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06075745RecruitingPhase 2
CMV Vaccine Study for Liver Transplant Candidates

Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06055608RecruitingPhase 2
Improving kidney transplant outcomes in teens and young adults
This trial tests a new approach to help teenagers and young adults keep their first kidney transplant working well. It looks at how to improve long-term success by carefully managing the immune system around the time of transplant.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 13–20 - NCT05719441RecruitingPhase 2
Antibodies plus early HIV treatment to try for HIV remission
This study tests whether giving special HIV-fighting antibodies along with starting standard HIV medicine soon after infection can help you reach “HIV remission.” It may reduce or delay the return of detectable virus, but you must be willing to follow close monitoring and specific study steps.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–70 - NCT06970977Recruiting
Chronic sinusitis questionnaire validation study
This study is testing a new questionnaire to better understand chronic sinusitis symptoms. It may help improve how doctors diagnose and treat the condition.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06517693RecruitingPhase 1
HIV antibody safety study for newborns at risk
This study tests whether giving a combination of two lab-made antibodies (PGT121.414.LS and VRC07-523LS) to newborns exposed to HIV during pregnancy is safe and how the body processes them. It may help protect infants from getting HIV after birth.
Chicago, IllinoisAges Up to 3 days - NCT04047628RecruitingPhase 3
MS patients with active relapsing disease comparing two treatment plans
This Phase 3 study compares the best standard MS treatment (chosen by your doctors) versus an approach called autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant (AHSCT) for people with highly active, treatment-resistant relapsing multiple sclerosis. It aims to see which option controls MS disease activity better and keeps you safer over time.
Evanston, IllinoisAges 18–55 - NCT05201469RecruitingPhase 2
VIB4920 for lupus kidney inflammation not responding well enough
This Phase 2 study tests VIB4920 to treat active lupus nephritis, a type of kidney disease caused by lupus. It may help reduce kidney inflammation and improve kidney outcomes in people with active disease despite standard care.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05947071RecruitingPhase 2
Higher-dose flu vaccine versus standard dose in child transplant patients
This trial compares a higher-dose flu vaccine to the standard dose in children who recently received a kidney, heart, and/or liver transplant. It aims to see which dose better protects children against influenza while checking for safety.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 3–17 - NCT06919003RecruitingPhase 2
Improving kidney transplant with a single injection of a protective protein
This trial tests whether a single injection of C1 esterase inhibitor into a donated kidney during preservation can improve transplant outcomes. It is for adults on dialysis waiting for a deceased-donor kidney who meet specific blood and tissue matching requirements.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–75 - NCT07059091RecruitingPhase 2
Omalizumab for COPD with allergies

Testing dasatinib to shrink HIV reservoir
This trial tests whether the drug dasatinib can reduce the hidden HIV reservoir in people who have had their virus well-controlled on HIV medications for a long time. It may help move toward a cure by targeting the cells where HIV hides.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06136091Recruiting

What taking part in a allergy 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.
