Recruiting studies in Florida
- NCT07592273RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Gene therapy for diabetic eye disease without macular swelling
This trial tests a gene therapy injection into the eye to treat diabetic retinopathy (eye damage from diabetes) before it progresses. The goal is to slow or prevent vision loss and potentially delay the need for laser treatment or other injections.
Lakeland, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06770933RecruitingPhase 2
VX-01 pill for diabetic eye disease study
This trial tests if an oral medication called VX-01 can help people with diabetic eye disease (non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy) that is moderate to severe but not yet at the most advanced stage. It may be an option if you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes and have not had certain prior eye treatments.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06837181Recruiting
Understanding diabetes complications in cystic fibrosis
This study looks at how long-term diabetes affects people with cystic fibrosis. It helps researchers understand complications and improve care.
Miami, FloridaAges 12 years+ - NCT06790784RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing faricimab plus laser vs. surgery for diabetic eye disease
This study compares two approaches to treat advanced diabetic eye disease (proliferative diabetic retinopathy): injections of faricimab plus laser, versus surgery (vitrectomy) with laser. It is for people with diabetes who need treatment for PDR and still have relatively good vision (20/100 or better) in the affected eye.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT03135327Recruiting
Eye scans study to compare brain and eye health
This study uses detailed eye imaging to look for patterns that may go along with conditions like Alzheimer’s disease, memory problems, multiple sclerosis, or eye/vascular issues. It may help researchers better understand how eye findings relate to health and disease.

What taking part in a diabetic retinopathy study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there diabetic retinopathy clinical trials in Florida?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 5 recruiting diabetic retinopathy studies with a site in Florida, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a diabetic retinopathy study in Florida?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Florida to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Florida, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a diabetic retinopathy trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
