Recruiting studies
- NCT03680794Recruiting
Testing a blood and eye-fluid marker in retinal disease

Transplant plan for children with genetic immune problems and diabetes
This trial tests a two-step transplant approach using immune-related stem cells and islet (pancreas insulin–making) cells in children and teens who have type 1 diabetes caused by a genetic immune problem. It aims to improve insulin control and protect other organs that are being affected by their immune system.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges Up to 18 years - NCT03841617RecruitingPhase 2
Measure radiation in thyroid cancer using a special PET-CT scan
This trial tests how much radiation a specialized whole-body PET/CT scan delivers in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer. It may help doctors better plan treatment for cancer that persists, returns, or has spread—especially when radioactive iodine (RAI) may or may not work.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–90 - NCT03851627RecruitingPhase 4
Testosterone for fatty liver in overweight men with diabetes
This trial compares testosterone undecanoate versus a placebo (inactive pill) to see if it lowers fat in the liver measured by MRI. It focuses on overweight or obese men who have prediabetes or type 2 diabetes and low testosterone confirmed by blood tests.
ViennaAges 18–75 - NCT03867448Recruiting
Study of Hormone Conditions and How the Body Works
This study looks at people with known or suspected hormone (endocrine) conditions. It aims to improve understanding and clinical screening so doctors can better manage these conditions over time.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–90 - NCT03875625Recruiting
Tracking body fat and liver fat after weight-loss treatment
This study looks at how body fat and liver fat change after bariatric (weight-loss) surgery or a lifestyle program. You may join if you have overweight or obesity and can safely have MRI scans, so researchers can compare results between treatment approaches.
Hong Kong, ShatinAges 18–65 - NCT03878706Recruiting
Testing diabetes medicines on heart risk and heart failure
This trial studies how diabetes medicines (GLP-1 and SGLT2, alone or together) affect the heart in people with type 2 diabetes who are at higher cardiovascular risk and have heart failure with preserved pumping function. It may help find safer or more effective ways to reduce heart problems.
Athens, AtticaAges 45–80 - NCT03900286Recruiting
Testing a low-calorie diet for partial fat loss diabetes
This trial studies whether a low-calorie (low energy) diet can improve diabetes control in adults with familial partial lipodystrophy. It likely helps by changing how your body handles blood sugar and fat use, but you must meet specific safety and eligibility checks.
CambridgeAges 18–99 - NCT03913962Recruiting
Exercise study for children with chronic or autoimmune conditions
This study looks at how physical activity affects muscle, metabolism (how your body uses energy), and body composition in children with certain chronic or autoimmune conditions. It may help doctors understand what types of exercise and monitoring are most beneficial and safe.
Clermont-FerrandAges 6–18 - NCT03945968Recruiting
Risk scores after abdominal surgery for people with health conditions
This study looks at how other health problems affect the chance of postoperative complications after abdominal surgery. It aims to help doctors better predict risk and decide on the safest care for you.
ArkhangelskAges 18 years+ - NCT03987633Recruiting
Study links health records and samples to understand health gaps
This study asks people affected by a specific illness (or their family member) to share saliva (and sometimes blood) and answer health and quality-of-life questions. The goal is to better understand and reduce health inequality by matching new information with medical records.
Wolverhampton, West MidlandsAges 6 years+ - NCT03995238Recruiting
Gait training for veterans with leg amputations
This study tests a walking rehabilitation plan to improve how you walk after a lower-leg amputation. It may help if your walking steps are uneven and you have diabetes and/or circulation problems in your legs.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 40–89 - NCT07701590Recruiting
New wound dressings for hard-to-heal leg and foot ulcers
This study tests a special amniotic membrane wound dressing compared to a synthetic wound matrix for stubborn diabetic foot ulcers or venous leg ulcers. It may help if your wound has not been healing well for over a month.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07703683Recruiting
Muscle health in metabolic and hormone diseases
This trial looks at how muscle health is affected by metabolic or hormone disorders, aiming to find better markers for muscle loss called sarcopenia.

Resistance training survey for people on weight loss meds
This trial is an online survey to understand how people taking GLP-1 medications (like Ozempic or Wegovy) are doing with resistance training. If you're an adult on a stable dose of a GLP-1 med for weight or diabetes, your input can help shape better exercise advice.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06884059RecruitingPhase 1
Time-restricted eating for people with early kidney signs
This study tests whether eating only during a certain window each day helps people with type 2 diabetes and small amounts of protein in their urine (a sign of early kidney stress) improve their health. You'll use a smartphone app to log your meals and follow a daily eating schedule.

Testing an eye imaging drug during retinal blood-vessel photos
This early safety study tests how well and how safely an investigational dye (MB-102) works during a special eye imaging test of retinal and choroidal blood vessels. It compares it to the commonly used fluorescein dye and may help doctors refine future eye imaging approaches.

Testing iron-related hormones and sugar levels in mid-pregnancy
This study looks at how the hormone hepcidin and blood sugar/metabolism change during pregnancy, and how they respond to either stopping iron supplements briefly or taking a specific prenatal iron-containing multivitamin. It may help doctors better understand iron balance in pregnancy and how it could affect metabolism.
