Recruiting studies
- NCT03369353Enrolling by invitation
Personalized immune testing study for bowel and transplant patients
This study looks at whether a precise lab test can help understand inflammatory bowel disease, functional gut disorders, and immune changes after stem cell transplant or cell therapy. It may help doctors choose better monitoring and treatments based on your immune and gut test results.

Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT04508088Recruiting
Study of bones and bone marrow in new Crohn’s
This study looks at how Crohn’s disease affects bones and bone marrow soon after diagnosis. It may help researchers understand disease effects and improve future care, either by comparing you to healthy controls or by tracking changes over time.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 13–20 - NCT07694674Recruiting
Comparing Biologic Drugs to Prevent Crohn's Return After Surgery
This trial compares different biologic medications to see which best prevents Crohn's disease from coming back after intestinal surgery. It may help you if you have had surgery for Crohn's and are starting a biologic drug soon after.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT06146816Recruiting
Infrared light therapy for Crohn's disease
This trial tests a new infrared light treatment to see if it can reduce inflammation and symptoms in people with Crohn's disease. It's for those who have active disease despite current treatments or who are not on therapy.
Tel AvivAges 18–80 - NCT06226883RecruitingPhase 2
Testing MORF-057 for moderate to severe Crohn's disease
This study tests an oral medicine called MORF-057 for people with moderate to severe Crohn's disease. It aims to see if the drug can reduce inflammation and improve symptoms for those who haven't had success with other treatments.
Lancaster, CaliforniaAges 18–85 - NCT01793831Recruiting
Fecal transplant study for people with Crohn’s disease
This study tests whether a standardized stool-based treatment (fecal microbiota transplantation) can help people with Crohn’s disease. You may qualify if your Crohn’s diagnosis has been stable and you’re willing to receive the fecal transplant.
Huai'an, JiangsuAges Any age - NCT06938295Recruiting
Comparing two types of ultrasound for inflammatory bowel disease
This study tests if a standard ultrasound is as good as a high-end one at seeing inflammation in the gut. It could help people with IBD avoid more invasive procedures.
Hyderabad, TelanganaAges 18–75 - NCT07737665RecruitingPhase 4
Melatonin for better sleep in IBD patients in remission
This study tests whether melatonin (a natural sleep hormone) can improve sleep quality in people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) whose disease is quiet (in remission). If you have IBD and trouble sleeping, you may be able to join.
Bangkok Noi, BangkokAges 18 years+ - NCT05002166Recruiting
Study of children with inflammatory bowel disease risks
This study looks at the typical features and risk factors in children diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). It may help families understand what affects IBD in kids, even if it is not testing a new treatment.
AsyutAges Up to 18 years - NCT04191395Recruiting
Study of treatments for long-term inflammatory diseases
This study looks at how chronic inflammatory illnesses progress over time and how treatments affect symptoms and disease markers. You may be invited if you’re receiving care for certain bowel, joint, or skin inflammatory conditions at the hospital.
BesançonAges 18 years+ - NCT04187820Recruiting
Acupuncture for mild to moderate Crohn’s flare
This trial tests whether acupuncture can help calm an active Crohn’s disease flare that is mild to moderate. It may be an option if standard Crohn’s medicines like steroids, immunosuppressors, and anti-TNF drugs are not working for you or you can’t tolerate them.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 16–70 - NCT06274554RecruitingPhase 3
Testing Antifungal Therapy for Crohn's Disease

New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06810518Recruiting
Studying stool test for digestive disease diagnosis
This trial tests a new stool test to measure calprotectin levels, which could help doctors tell the difference between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). If you have symptoms like stomach pain, diarrhea, or weight loss and are about to have a colonoscopy, you may be able to join.
Miami, FloridaAges 22 years+ - NCT06271538RecruitingPhase 4

Studying the immune system in Crohn's and colitis
This study collects blood and tissue samples to better understand how the immune system behaves in people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for bowel disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 288 recruiting bowel 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 bowel 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 bowel 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.
