Recruiting studies
- NCT05953350RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Hydroxychloroquine plus CDK4/6 medicine for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests whether adding hydroxychloroquine (a medicine that affects a cell recycling process called autophagy) can boost the anti-cancer effect of high-dose CDK4/6 inhibitor treatment in advanced solid tumors. It may help tumors respond better after prior CDK4/6 treatments have stopped working.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT04160455Recruiting
Study of GALIG proteins in adults with HIV on or off treatment
This study looks at how “GALIG” gene products affect the body’s internal recycling process (called autophagy) in people living with HIV. It may help researchers understand differences between people on HIV treatment, starting treatment, or not currently taking it.
OrléansAges 18 years+ - NCT07675200Recruiting
Miricell study on healthy aging and cell cleanup
This study tests whether a supplement called Miricell can improve markers of healthy aging and help your cells clean out damaged parts. If you are healthy, between 40 and 70 years old, and willing to follow a specific diet and visit schedule, you may be able to join.
Canfield, OhioAges 40–70 - NCT07774676Recruiting
Effects of obesity on muscle cell processes
This study looks at how obesity affects certain cell processes in muscle. It may help find new ways to treat or prevent muscle problems related to obesity.
BirminghamAges 18–45 - NCT05593549RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Studying blood vessel damage in type 2 diabetes
This early study looks at how “autophagy” (your body’s cell recycling process) relates to small blood-vessel problems in people with type 2 diabetes. It may help researchers understand mechanisms and possible future treatments, mainly for people who meet specific health and medication criteria.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18–80 - NCT05842174RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Checking a new treatment approach for liver cancer needing TACE
This early-stage trial studies a new strategy for hepatocellular carcinoma (a type of liver cancer) in people who are planned to receive TACE, a procedure that delivers treatment through the liver’s blood supply. It aims to test whether targeting a specific cell survival process can improve how well the treatment works and is tolerated.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05986136RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Dapagliflozin for mild to moderate ulcerative colitis
This study tests whether dapagliflozin (a medicine often used for diabetes) can help calm inflammation in people with mild to moderate ulcerative colitis. It's a new way of treating UC by working with the body's natural cleanup process.
Al MansurahAges 1.5 years–60 years - NCT06842316Recruiting
Study on cannabis-like compounds for inflammatory arthritis
This trial tests whether plant-based compounds similar to cannabis (called phytocannabinoids) can help calm inflammation and improve immune function in people with certain types of arthritis or autoimmune diseases like lupus or Sjögren's disease. It aims to offer a new way to treat these conditions without the 'high' of marijuana.
OrléansAges 18 years+ - NCT06971744RecruitingPhase 2
Study of autophagy maintenance for ovarian cancer
This trial tests whether a combination of medications (hydroxychloroquine, everolimus, and others) can help keep ovarian cancer from coming back after successful platinum chemotherapy plus Avastin. It is for people whose cancer responded well to their most recent chemo and who can continue Avastin maintenance.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07383311Recruiting
Memory, sleep, and a natural supplement
This trial tests whether a natural substance (from wheat germ) that boosts a process called autophagy can help improve sleep in people who are worried about their memory or have mild memory problems but do not have dementia.
Greifswald, Mecklenburg-VorpommernAges 55–70 - NCT03209791Recruiting
Study alcohol-related effects on muscle recycling in the liver
This study looks at how alcoholic liver disease may change a natural body clean-up process in muscle. It compares people with alcoholic liver disease to people without it to better understand the biology and identify possible targets for treatment.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–65

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for autophagy?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 11 recruiting autophagy studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a autophagy trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a autophagy trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
