Recruiting studies
- NCT02846571RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Diabetes cell transplant placed in the eye to restore insulin
This Phase 1/2 study tests whether transplanting insulin-producing cells into the front part of the eye can help people with diabetes. It focuses on people who already have severe, non-usable vision in one eye, to limit risk while the treatment is studied.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–75 - NCT02417740Recruiting
Study of the natural course of noncirrhotic portal hypertension
This study follows people with noncirrhotic portal hypertension (NCPH) or people at risk for it to better understand how the condition progresses over time. It does not sound like a medication trial—more like careful monitoring to learn what happens in different people.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 12–100 - NCT01496625Recruiting
Biobank study for retinal diseases and comparison samples
This study collects and stores blood and eye-related medical information to help researchers better understand retinal diseases, including age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy. Your samples may also be used to compare people with retinal disease to people without it.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–120 - NCT02019706RecruitingPhase 2
PET/CT scans to find the cause of ectopic Cushing syndrome
This trial tests several special imaging scans to help doctors locate the source of hormone overproduction in ectopic Cushing syndrome. It may help confirm where the problem is so treatment can be better targeted.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–80 - NCT01999374Recruiting
Long-term follow-up for people with transplanted islet cells
This study checks how well transplanted islet cells are working over time and monitors long-term safety. If you previously received an islet transplant and are still using medicine to prevent rejection, you may be followed again.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–65 - NCT02000687Recruiting
Long-term follow-up after islet transplant graft failure
This study follows people over the long term after their islet transplant fully stops working. It aims to learn what happens after complete graft loss and monitor health outcomes over time.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–75 - NCT01957696Enrolling by invitation
Study of pancreas (and sometimes kidney) transplant outcomes
This study looks at people who receive a pancreas transplant, with or without a same-time kidney transplant, and follows them to understand their results. It may help improve how transplant teams choose patients and manage care after surgery.
OsloAges 18–65 - NCT01999361Recruiting
Prevent new immune reaction after islet transplant failure
This study looks at ways to prevent the body from developing a new harmful immune reaction after an islet transplant no longer works. It may help people who have already lost a transplanted islet graft from getting harder-to-treat immune responses later.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–70 - NCT00777712Recruiting
Study of why wounds heal poorly in diabetes
This study looks at what makes some surgical wounds heal slowly, especially in people with diabetes. The goal is to understand the healing problem better so future treatments can be more effective.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 21–80 - NCT00001160Recruiting
Study of thyroid lumps and thyroid cancer
This study looks at people who have or may have thyroid nodules (lumps in the thyroid gland in your neck) or thyroid cancer, as well as family members who may have inherited a higher risk. It aims to better understand and diagnose these thyroid problems.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 6 months–98 years - NCT00001276Recruiting
Understanding and Treating Severe Low Blood Sugar
This study helps doctors diagnose and treat dangerously low blood sugar, especially in people with pancreatic tumors that produce too much insulin. You'll receive comprehensive evaluation and personalized care to manage your condition.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT00542230Recruiting
Blood sample study for sickle cell trait and controls
This study collects blood samples to learn more about sickle cell-related genetics and biology. You might benefit indirectly by helping researchers understand the condition, even though this is laboratory research rather than a medication trial.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT00341237Recruiting
Study linking genes and environment to health risks
This study looks at how your genes and your environment may affect your health. It may help researchers better understand who is most at risk so future prevention and care can be more personalized.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18–120 - NCT00977977RecruitingPhase 2
Rituximab plus cyclosporine for membranous kidney disease
This trial tests whether rituximab (an immune-targeting medicine) plus cyclosporine (another immune medicine) can better control protein leakage in the urine for people with idiopathic membranous nephropathy. It may help reduce long-lasting kidney damage risk when standard treatments like ACE inhibitor or ARB don’t control the protein level.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–90 - NCT00428987Recruiting
Study of body and behavior traits in weight groups
This study looks at how physical traits and everyday behaviors differ among people who are overweight, obese, or in the normal-weight range. It may help researchers better understand risk factors related to weight and health.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT00001971Recruiting
Evaluation of patients with liver disease
This research study evaluates people with liver disease or at risk for liver disease, and compares them with healthy volunteers. The goal is to better understand liver disease and improve how doctors diagnose and treat it.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–100 - NCT00001979Recruiting
Understanding Immune System Kidney Disease
This research study looks at kidney diseases caused by the immune system—conditions where your body's defense system mistakenly attacks the kidneys. Researchers will study your medical history, blood, and urine to better understand these diseases and potentially improve treatment.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 10–99 - NCT01109420Recruiting
Family study of non-medullary thyroid cancer and genetics
This study looks at families affected by non-medullary thyroid cancer to understand patterns and possible genetic risk. You may be able to join even if you personally do not have the cancer, as long as you have the right family history and can complete a questionnaire.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 7–90 - NCT00646022Recruiting
Family study of small intestine carcinoid tumors
This is a research study that follows families with small intestine carcinoid tumors (and related hormone-related tumors) to learn how these conditions progress over time. It may help doctors better predict risk and health needs for people in similar families.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT00001159Recruiting
Thyroid disorder natural history study
This study observes people with various thyroid conditions, including overactive or underactive thyroid, to learn more about how these disorders develop and progress over time. It may help improve future diagnosis and treatment.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 6 months–98 years

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for diabetes?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,132 recruiting diabetes 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 diabetes 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 diabetes 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.
