Recruiting studies
- NCT06809010Recruiting
Blood storage study for group O donors
This study looks at how storing whole blood from group O donors affects blood cells and inflammation. It may help improve blood transfusions for patients.
Saint-EtienneAges 18–65 - NCT07093307Recruiting
Docudrama video for first-time blood donors in Ghana
This trial tests whether watching a short docudrama (a mix of drama and education) helps first-time blood donors in Ghana feel more willing to donate again. It's for people donating whole blood for the first time at a SZBC center who are eligible to donate right now.
AccraAges 18 years+ - NCT04438525Recruiting
BAT test to replace sting challenge in venom allergy care
This study looks at whether a BAT (a blood test) can stand in for sting/venom “challenges” for people already receiving venom immunotherapy. If it works, it could help patients avoid more risky or uncomfortable challenge procedures while still checking whether treatment is working.
GrazAges 18–70 - NCT07157839Recruiting
Tau Levels in Donated Blood
This study measures a substance called tau in blood plasma from donors to help researchers understand brain health. If you've donated plasma, your sample may be used.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT04218344Recruiting
Heart attack and chest pain study at Harefield hospital
This study follows people who come to Harefield for urgent heart-related chest pain and planned heart-vessel imaging (coronary angiography). It aims to better understand these conditions and what doctors see during the procedure, which may improve care for future patients.
Harefield, MiddlesexAges Any age - NCT04698291Recruiting
Study how genetic differences affect calming immune signals
This study looks at how genetic changes may affect special “calming” immune molecules that help the body resolve inflammation. You may be invited if you already joined the Genes & Health project and had your genome analyzed, and you meet safety and health criteria.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT05743582Recruiting
Studying natural immunity in COPD and in healthy adults
This study looks at how the body’s “innate” (first-line) immune system works in people with COPD compared with healthy volunteers. It may help researchers understand COPD inflammation and how immune responses could be targeted in the future.
EdinburghAges 18–77 - NCT05594433RecruitingPhase 1
Healthy blood donors give whole blood after a growth factor shot
This early (Phase 1) study tests whether giving a growth factor injection (rhu-G-CSF) to healthy volunteers can help collect whole blood for research. It looks at safety and whether the donated blood can be collected under specific health conditions.
ParisAges 18–60 - NCT06875232Enrolling by invitation
Comparing CT and MRI scans for live liver donors
This study looks at how well CT scans and MRI scans (MRCP) show the blood vessels in the liver before a living donor liver donation. It aims to find out which scan is better at planning the surgery.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18–60 - NCT05663502Recruiting
Donate blood and tissue samples for HIV-related cancer research
This study collects blood and tissue samples to help researchers learn more about cancers related to HIV/AIDS. You may be able to join if you’re 18+ and have HIV and a cancer diagnosis, or (if HIV-negative) a certain cancer that is closely linked to AIDS-related cancers.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02604563Recruiting
Aging, blood changes, and health in older adults
This study examines why some older adults develop changes in their blood cells that may affect their health. Researchers will look for links between these blood changes, aging, and common health problems in older people.
St Louis, MissouriAges 50 years+ - NCT04531696Recruiting
Post-death breast tissue donation study for cancer research
This trial invites adults with certain breast cancer conditions to donate tissue after death. Researchers hope the donated samples will help better understand cancer and improve future treatments.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT01553214RecruitingPhase 4
Blood donation study to improve white blood cell collection
This study tests a better way to collect white blood cells from healthy people who donate blood. It may help improve how reliably and safely white blood cells are collected for research or future treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–75 - NCT06047106Recruiting
MRI study for kidney transplant from living donor
This study uses special MRI scans after a living-donor kidney transplant to check how well the kidney is working. It aims to see if MRI can help monitor kidney health without needing a biopsy.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for blood donation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 14 recruiting blood donation 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 blood donation 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 blood donation 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.
