Recruiting studies
- NCT02435940Recruiting
Registry for inherited eye vision conditions
This study is a registry, meaning it collects information about people with inherited retinal (retina) diseases. It may help researchers learn how these conditions progress and connect you with future studies or treatments.
Columbia, MarylandAges Any age - NCT06491615Recruiting
eyeGENE study: genetics of rare eye diseases
This study collects DNA samples and medical information from people with rare inherited eye diseases and their close relatives. The goal is to learn more about the genetic causes of these conditions and improve diagnosis and care.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1 day–120 years - NCT07039773Recruiting
Gluten challenge in celiac disease: finding the best gluten type
This trial compares different forms of gluten to see which one causes the strongest immune reaction in people with celiac disease. It may help doctors choose the best way to test gluten sensitivity in the future.
Oslo, OsloAges 18–80 - NCT07124078RecruitingPhase 2
Study of axatilimab vs. best available therapy for chronic GVHD in children
This trial tests a new drug called axatilimab against the best available standard treatments for children with chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) that has not responded to at least two prior treatments. It aims to find a better option for managing this condition.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 2–17 - NCT06959199Recruiting
Treating stroke beyond 24 hours with artery-opening procedure
This study tests whether opening a blocked large artery in the brain up to 5 days (or even 7 days if symptoms are worsening) after a stroke can improve outcomes. It uses a catheter-based treatment (endovascular therapy) for people who have not responded to standard care and have limited brain damage so far.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT04629833RecruitingPhase 3
Mesenchymal cells vs standard care for steroid-resistant graft-versus-host disease
This trial studies a type of immune-support cell therapy (mesenchymal stromal cells) compared with the best available standard treatment for acute graft-versus-host disease (aGvHD) that does not respond to steroids. It may help by calming an overactive immune reaction after a stem cell transplant.
AmiensAges 12 years+ - NCT07151378RecruitingPhase 3
Intestinal gel for Parkinson's mood and behavior problems
This trial tests a gel form of levodopa (called Lecigon) given through a tube into the intestine to see if it helps reduce mood swings, impulsive behaviors, and other mental side effects in people with Parkinson's who already have motor fluctuations. It is for people who have had Parkinson's for at least 5 years and are between 18 and 75 years old.
Saarlouis, SaarlandAges 18–75 - NCT07185022Recruiting
Clot-busting drug through artery for medium-vessel stroke
This trial tests a clot-busting drug given directly into the arteries of the brain for people who have had a stroke due to a blockage in a medium-sized artery. It aims to see if this treatment can help improve recovery when started up to 72 hours after symptoms begin.
Fuyang, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - 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.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18–55 - NCT07572669RecruitingPhase 2
Moxibustion for Steroid-Resistant Graft-Versus-Host Disease
This trial tests whether moxibustion—a traditional Chinese medicine technique using heat from burning mugwort—can help treat acute graft-versus-host disease (a complication after bone marrow transplant) that hasn't responded to steroid drugs. If you've had a stem cell transplant and developed this condition that won't go away with standard treatment, this study may be for you.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 14–65 - NCT06561919Recruiting
Speech and language study during brain stimulation treatment
This is an extra part of the STIMPulseControl study that focuses on speech. It looks at how the brain stimulation treatment affects your ability to speak clearly and communicate.
CologneAges 18–70 - NCT07025538RecruitingPhase 1
Preventing chronic graft-versus-host disease with ruxolitinib
This trial tests whether the drug ruxolitinib, given based on a blood test that predicts risk, can prevent chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) after a stem cell transplant. It may help people who have a higher risk of developing this complication.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07361055Enrolling by invitation
Heart ablation study using no X-ray
This trial tests a new way to treat a fast heart rhythm called PSVT using a procedure that avoids X-ray radiation. It aims to see if this approach is safer and works well for patients who need this treatment.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT04751396Recruiting
Melanoma education for people with autoimmune conditions
This trial tests an educational tool to help people with melanoma and pre-existing autoimmune disease understand immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment. It aims to support you and your care team with information that can help you make decisions and feel more prepared.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05627375RecruitingPhase 3
Blood thinner options for clot patients already on antiplatelets
This Phase 3 trial compares the best “blood thinner” approach for people who have a new clot in the leg (DVT) or lung (PE) and who already take antiplatelet medicines for heart or blood-vessel prevention. It aims to find an antithrombotic plan that lowers clot risk while managing bleeding risk.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT02390973Recruiting
Bariatric-style surgery vs best diabetes care for long remission
This trial compares surgery plus follow-up care versus the best non-surgical (medical) treatment to help people keep type 2 diabetes in remission for a long time. It may be an option if you have higher body weight and diabetes that’s not well controlled, but safety checks are strict.
Québec, QuebecAges 18–60 - NCT06498349Recruiting
DBS for Parkinson's impulse control problems
This trial tests whether deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus can help control impulse control problems (like gambling, overeating, or shopping) in people with Parkinson's disease. It is for patients whose medication-related impulse symptoms are moderate to severe and who are good candidates for DBS surgery.
CologneAges 18–70 - NCT06578078RecruitingPhase 3
Best heart failure care for older patients with kidney disease
This study tests the best way to manage heart failure in older adults who also have kidney problems and high potassium levels. It compares different treatment strategies to see which one is safest and most effective.
Alcorcón, MadridAges 70 years+ - NCT06705023RecruitingPhase 2
Fat-derived cell therapy for heart failure
This study tests whether taking a small amount of your own belly fat (through liposuction), processing it, and injecting the cells back into your heart can improve heart function in people with chronic heart failure due to blocked arteries. The trial is for patients whose heart pumps weakly (ejection fraction of 40% or less) and who are already on standard medications.
AstanaAges 21–80 - NCT06675448Recruiting
Best practices for heart failure with leaky mitral valve
This trial compares two treatment approaches for people with heart failure and a leaky mitral valve (mitral regurgitation). It aims to find which strategy leads to better outcomes. You may be eligible if your heart function is reduced and you have symptoms despite standard treatments.
Falls Church, VirginiaAges 18–99

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for best disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 20 recruiting best disease 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 best disease 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 best disease 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.
