Recruiting studies
- NCT07054229Recruiting
Microwave ablation for low-risk thyroid microcancer
This study looks at whether microwave ablation, a minimally invasive treatment, works as well as surgery for small, low-risk thyroid cancers. It uses special ultrasound and genetic tests to help decide the best treatment.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT05931081Enrolling by invitation
Thermal camera test for chronic wound diagnosis and healing
This study uses a thermal imaging camera (a heat-sensing picture) to help doctors assess chronic ulcers and track how they heal over time. It may help identify differences in blood flow and healing patterns, supporting better wound care.
TampereAges Any age - NCT07366099Recruiting
Special PET scan for tumor-induced osteomalacia
This trial tests a new PET/CT scan (using a tracer called Al18F-NOTA-LM3) to better find tumors causing TIO, a condition that leads to bone softening and weakness. It may help doctors diagnose and treat TIO more accurately.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07732114Recruiting
Liver vein vs. heart echo to check right heart function on a ventilator
This study compares a liver vein ultrasound method with a standard heart ultrasound for checking how well the right side of the heart is pumping in patients who are on a breathing machine (ventilator). If you are on a ventilator and can get a clear ultrasound of your heart and liver veins, you may be able to join.
Alexandria, Shebin El-KomAges 18 years+ - NCT06335667Recruiting
MRI vs. TURBT for muscle-invasive bladder cancer
This study compares two ways to check if bladder cancer has grown into the muscle layer: an MRI scan (mpMRI) versus a standard surgery called TURBT (where a small tool removes a sample of the tumor). The goal is to see if the MRI can be as accurate as the surgery, so future patients might avoid an extra procedure.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03676647Recruiting
Test DNA methylation from thyroid FNA samples to diagnose cancer
This study looks at a molecular test (DNA methylation pattern) using samples taken during fine-needle aspiration (FNA) of thyroid nodules. It aims to help identify which thyroid nodules that looked “unclear” after the first test may be cancer.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 19 years+ - NCT04111588Recruiting
PET/MRI scan to assess brain tumors and metastases
This trial tests how well a special PET/MRI scan can help doctors evaluate gliomas and brain metastases. It may help improve diagnosis and treatment planning by comparing scan results with tissue samples or surgery findings.
BergenAges 18 years+ - NCT04666402Recruiting
Testing better ways to diagnose early liver disease
This study looks at integrated diagnostic tests to find early liver problems sooner. It may help you (if referred to the community liver clinic) get more timely information about what’s going on.
Manchester, Greater ManchesterAges 18 years+ - NCT04845867Recruiting
Test accuracy of a thyroid surgery diagnostic product
This study looks at how well a diagnostic medical product works during routine thyroid surgery. It may help surgeons and care teams choose better next steps based on what the test shows.
HaushamAges 18 years+ - NCT05419895Recruiting
Early autism screening follow-up after a high-risk test score
This study looks at an “early diagnostic response” approach for toddlers who screen high-risk for autism. It aims to help families get timely follow-up and evaluation based on screening results.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 1.3 years–3 years - NCT05457140Recruiting
Testing genes and other samples in youth with first psychosis
This study looks at many types of tests (including genetic testing and other lab data) to help understand what may be causing first-time psychosis symptoms in youth. It may help doctors learn more about the condition for future care, and it can involve analyzing family genetic information.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 7–17 - NCT05610098Recruiting
Study of gene activity in spinal tuberculosis
This trial looks at patterns of gene activity (from blood/tissue samples) in adults with spinal tuberculosis. The goal is to better understand the disease and how to tell different conditions apart, which may help future care.
Cape Town, Western CapeAges 18 years+ - NCT05640752Recruiting
Testing whether better heart imaging planning reduces scans
This trial studies the best way to decide when people need heart imaging tests, with the goal of doing fewer unnecessary scans. It may help patients by avoiding extra radiation and tests while still keeping care safe and appropriate.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 30–90 - NCT05699928Recruiting
Testing how well pediatricians spot autism in young children
This study compares an early autism opinion made by a community general pediatrician with a more detailed team assessment. It may help improve how families get autism evaluations sooner and more accurately.
Toronto, OntarioAges birth–5.3 years - NCT05735314Recruiting
Interventions to make primary care diagnoses faster and safer
This trial tests a set of practice changes in primary care to improve diagnostic safety (making sure the right diagnosis is found) and efficiency (reducing time and delays). It may help patients who have certain lab results suggesting kidney function concerns and low hemoglobin (low blood level).
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05774561Recruiting
Using blood tests to monitor HPV-related cancer treatment
This study checks whether “liquid biopsies” (blood tests that look for cancer-related signals) can help monitor how HPV-related cancers respond to treatment. It may help doctors spot changes earlier during care.
OlomoucAges 18–99 - NCT05866783Recruiting
Blood test to predict cancer coming back after liver transplant
This study uses a blood test (looking at sugars in the blood) to help predict whether liver cancer will come back after a liver transplant. It may help doctors monitor you more accurately and earlier if cancer returns.
GhentAges 18 years+ - NCT05979545RecruitingPhase 4
Early treatment with ceftazidime-avibactam for serious infections
This study tests an antibiotic called ceftazidime-avibactam for people with serious infections like bloodstream infections or pneumonia that started in the hospital or from a breathing machine. It aims to start treatment quickly after identifying the bacteria.
Kuala LumpurAges Any age - NCT06313801RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy with or without PIPAC for stomach cancer
This trial tests whether adding a special type of chemotherapy sprayed directly into the abdomen (PIPAC) to standard chemotherapy is safer and works better for stomach cancer that has spread only to the lining of the abdomen.
Nizhny NovgorodAges 18–75 - NCT06337084RecruitingPhase 1
Imaging test for solid tumors using MNPR-101-DFO*-89Zr
This study tests whether a new imaging agent, MNPR-101-DFO*-89Zr, can find solid tumors and measure their uPAR levels. It might help doctors better understand your cancer and guide future treatment decisions.
North Melbourne, VictoriaAges 18 years+ - NCT06395129Recruiting
Better syringes for people who inject drugs
This study provides safer, low-dead-space syringes to people who inject drugs to help reduce the spread of infections like HIV and hepatitis C. It is designed for people in low- and middle-income countries who use needle exchange programs.
YerevanAges 18 years+ - NCT06446882Recruiting
HER2DX test to guide treatment for early HER2+ breast cancer
This trial tests whether a new test (HER2DX) can help doctors choose the best treatment combination for HER2-positive breast cancer before surgery. It's for people whose cancer hasn't spread and who haven't started therapy yet.
GrazAges 18 years+ - NCT06497218Recruiting
Using a smartphone app to help diagnose autism
This study tests whether a smartphone app can help doctors diagnose autism in children by watching short videos and listening to sounds. The app might offer a faster, more accessible way to assess autism.
SaléAges 3–12 - NCT06501521Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for diagnostic?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 673 recruiting diagnostic 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 diagnostic 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 diagnostic 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.
