Recruiting studies

Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–80 - NCT05579392Recruiting
Bright light therapy for gut inflammation in Crohn’s or colitis
This trial studies whether daily bright light can improve gut barrier “leakiness” and reduce inflammation in adults with Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis. It compares bright light versus dim light in a crossover design, meaning you may receive both.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06606808RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Imaging risankizumab in inflammatory bowel disease
This trial tests a new imaging method using a special dye (risankizumab-800CW) to see how risankizumab, a medicine for inflammatory bowel disease, works in the bowel. The goal is to better understand the medicine's effects and help doctors tailor treatments.
GroningenAges 18 years+ - NCT07686406Recruiting
IBD biomarker discovery study
This study collects blood, stool, tissue, and health information from people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), their relatives, and healthy volunteers to find patterns that may help diagnose or treat IBD better in the future.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 14 years+ - NCT07013578Recruiting
Mental health support trial for IBD patients
This trial tests a mental health program for people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) who have mild to moderate anxiety or depression. It aims to see if the program can improve their emotional well-being.
North York, OntarioAges 18–75 - NCT07155148Recruiting
Argentine registry for Crohn's and colitis patients
This study collects information from people diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. By joining the registry, you help researchers learn more about these conditions and improve care.
Córdoba, Córdoba ProvinceAges Any age - NCT07385131Recruiting
Steroid before infliximab for inflammatory bowel disease
This study tests whether giving a steroid (dexamethasone) before an infliximab infusion can prevent allergic reactions in people with moderate-to-severe Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis. If you qualify, you will receive either the steroid or a placebo before your infliximab treatment.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 14–80 - NCT07289672Enrolling by invitation
Food limits in Crohn's and colitis
This study looks at how diet affects people with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis who have moderate inflammation. It aims to understand if certain foods make symptoms worse or better.
MalmöAges 18 years+ - NCT04014413Recruiting
Fecal transplant for gut and immune-related conditions
This trial studies whether fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT)—a medical procedure using stool from a screened donor to restore gut bacteria—can improve safety and outcomes for people with certain bowel, immune, and metabolic conditions. It may help if your symptoms are thought to be related to an unhealthy gut microbiome, though eligibility is broad and depends on specific safety factors.
Hong Kong, ShatinAges Any age - NCT03816345RecruitingPhase 1
Nivolumab for advanced cancer with autoimmune conditions
This Phase 1 study tests nivolumab, an immunotherapy “anti-cancer accelerator,” in people with advanced cancer who also have an autoimmune disorder. It aims to see if nivolumab can be given safely and whether it may help shrink or control cancer.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05251415Recruiting
Study of rare autoimmune diseases with blood and medical samples
This trial collects clinical and lab information (like blood and medical history) from people with rare autoimmune diseases, especially when symptoms are unusual. It aims to better understand what causes these illnesses and how newer treatments may help.
ToulouseAges 6–99 - NCT07216014RecruitingPhase 4
IL-23 antibody for inflammatory bowel disease
This trial tests a new antibody drug (IL-23 inhibitor) for people with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective. You may be able to join if you have moderate to severe disease and have not had certain bowel surgeries or infections.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT05573542Enrolling by invitation
Study early Parkinson signs in people with IBS
This study looks for early clues of Parkinson’s disease in people who have IBS (irritable bowel syndrome), and compares them with people without IBS. The goal is to understand whether gut symptoms or test results can help spot Parkinson’s earlier.
ÖrebroAges 18–85 - NCT05633706Recruiting

Calgary, AlbertaAges 18–80 - NCT06288464Recruiting
Fiber in tube feeding to improve gut health
This trial tests adding fiber to liquid food given through a stoma before stoma reversal surgery. The goal is to see if it helps improve the balance of good bacteria in the gut.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for bowel disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 283 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.
