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 - 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 - 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 - 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 - 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 - 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 - 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 - 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 - NCT02795052Recruiting
Stem cell treatment trial for nerve injury
This study tests whether bone-marrow stem cells can improve nerve function in people with nerve damage that usually doesn’t recover with current care. It also checks whether the treatment is safe and whether people can be followed over time with repeated nerve exams.
Westport, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT02669953Recruiting
Aflibercept injections for persistent wet macular degeneration
This trial studies whether aflibercept injections can help when “wet” age-related macular degeneration is recurring or not fully going away. It focuses on adults who have already had ranibizumab and still have measurable vision in the study eye.
ViennaAges 50 years+ - NCT02169518Recruiting
Testing blood fat markers in diabetes and heart health
This study measures how certain blood “fat” markers relate to blood sugar control and inflammation. It may help researchers understand risk factors for heart disease in people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes, pre-diabetes, and people preparing for weight-loss surgery.
Manchester, LancashireAges 20–75 - NCT02861781Recruiting
Collecting body tissue samples during bariatric surgery
This study collects small tissue samples during planned weight-loss surgery to better understand metabolism and how insulin works in people with and without type 2 diabetes. You may help researchers by allowing their team to take these samples while you are already having surgery.
MontpellierAges 18–65 - 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 - NCT02830308Recruiting
Adult study evaluating endocrine and metabolic health
This trial enrolls adults with known or suspected hormone (endocrine) or metabolism-related conditions for clinical evaluation. The goal is to help doctors assess and better understand what’s causing these health problems.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for diabetic?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,200 recruiting diabetic 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 diabetic 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 diabetic 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.
