Rotational atherectomy elective vs emergency for heavily calcified blockages
This trial compares doing a special procedure (rotational atherectomy) before an emergency is needed versus using it as a rescue during a heart artery procedure. It is designed for people with very hard, calcified artery blockages and long-term kidney impairment, to see which approach works better and is safer.
MadridAges 18–100 - NCT06387875Recruiting
Community health study in Qianwan, Ningbo

Metabolic profiles and chronic disease study
This study looks at how your metabolic health (like blood sugar and cholesterol) relates to chronic diseases and cancer. If you are an adult who has already had a health screening, you may be able to join.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT07777445Recruiting
Oxygen treatment during exercise for lung and pulmonary vascular disease
This study compares breathing normal air versus low-flow liquid oxygen during exercise to see if oxygen helps improve performance in people with conditions affecting the lungs or the blood vessels in the lungs. You would exercise while using a portable oxygen device and then without it to compare the effects.
Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT05868668Recruiting
Low-intensity shockwave versus wave therapy for erectile and pelvic pain
This trial compares two types of low-intensity wave therapy to see which works better for erectile dysfunction and/or chronic pelvic pain. Participants may benefit if these therapies improve erection quality and reduce pelvic pain.
Cleveland, OhioAges 40 years+ - NCT07451977Recruiting
Oxygen during a 6-minute walk test for lung disease
This trial tests whether adding extra oxygen during a 6-minute walk test helps people with chronic lung disease breathe better. It is for people with COPD or interstitial lung disease who have low oxygen levels, either during exercise or all the time.
Lumezzane, BresciaAges 18 years+ - NCT07114393Recruiting
Better imaging to guide complex heart artery procedures
This study looks at whether using advanced imaging inside the heart arteries during complex procedures leads to better outcomes compared to current standard practice. If you have had a complex angioplasty (PCI) and your data is in a national heart registry, you may be included.
Eindhoven, North BrabantAges 18 years+ - NCT06502873Recruiting
Study of colon samples in IBD and healthy people
This study is gathering information from people with active Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, and from people without IBD. Researchers will look at samples from the colon to learn more about these conditions.
LiègeAges 18 years+ - NCT04844606RecruitingPhase 3
Mirikizumab for kids with ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s
This study checks whether continuing mirikizumab (a medicine that calms gut inflammation) helps children with ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease after prior study treatment. It aims to see if staying on the medicine is beneficial and safe over time.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 2–19 - NCT07593352Recruiting
Kidney Health in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients
This study compares kidney function between people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and those without it. Researchers want to understand if IBD affects the kidneys and why, which could help protect kidney health in IBD patients.
Warsaw, WarszawaAges 18–80 - NCT06038409Recruiting
Ketamine therapy for chronic conditions

Erlangen, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT07737236Recruiting
Ruscus study for symptom relief in chronic vein problems
This study tests a natural plant extract called Ruscus to see if it helps control symptoms of chronic venous insufficiency, a condition where leg veins have trouble moving blood back to the heart. It is for people who are already starting this treatment as part of their regular care.
Ankara, AnkaraAges 18–75 - NCT06813534Recruiting
IVUS-guided stent placement for kidney disease patients
This trial tests whether using a special ultrasound camera inside the artery (IVUS) to guide stent placement can improve outcomes for people with serious kidney disease. The goal is to use less contrast dye and protect the kidneys better.
Créteil, CreteilAges 18 years+ - NCT07385651Recruiting
Cool storage for donated kidneys
This trial compares storing donated kidneys at 10 degrees Celsius (a cooler temperature) instead of the usual ice storage. It tests if this might help the kidney stay healthier before transplant.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07123285Recruiting
Light therapy for healing leg ulcers from weak veins
This study tests whether a special light therapy (photobiomodulation) can help heal leg ulcers caused by weak veins. If you have a non-infected venous leg ulcer that's been present for at least 6 weeks, this treatment might speed up healing.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chronic disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,247 recruiting chronic 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 chronic 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 chronic 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.
