Recruiting studies
- NCT04399941Recruiting
Ultrasound inside the blood vessel for dialysis access issues
This trial tests a special type of ultrasound placed inside a blood vessel to better understand problems with dialysis access. It may help doctors find the cause of access malfunction during your diagnostic fistulogram.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–85 - NCT04451044Enrolling by invitation
Guided heart stent planning using an inside pressure sensor
This study tests whether using a tiny pressure sensor in heart arteries during a procedure can better guide where to place a stent. It may help doctors choose the safest and most effective stent plan by more accurately measuring artery narrowing.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT02714764Recruiting
Testing how best to measure outcomes in Alexander disease
This study is looking at which measurements best capture changes over time in people with Alexander disease. It may help researchers and doctors track the disease more accurately in future care and studies.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges Any age - NCT04299945Recruiting
Beetroot juice to boost exercise in fibrotic lung disease
This trial tests whether drinking beetroot juice can improve exercise performance in people with fibrotic interstitial lung disease (scarring in the lungs). It may help your body use oxygen better during activity if you meet the study’s safety and lung-function requirements.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 19 years+ - NCT04343417Enrolling by invitation
Kidney biopsy study that stores samples for research
This study collects and stores kidney biopsy samples (and related information) to help researchers understand kidney diseases. You may be able to join if you are already scheduled for a kidney biopsy and can consent.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18–99 - NCT04335994Recruiting
Home sleep testing for people with memory trouble
This study looks at how well home sleep apnea testing works for people with cognitive impairment (memory/thinking problems) to help improve outcomes. You may be asked to do a home sleep test (and possibly an in-lab test) and will involve a caregiver if needed.
Toronto, OntarioAges Any age - NCT04302870RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Test medicines for motor neurone disease using adaptive trial design
This study tests treatments for motor neurone disease (MND) and assigns people to different treatment arms in an adaptive way. It may help doctors find out which medicine works best and for whom.
Portadown, County ArmaghAges 18 years+ - NCT04259580Recruiting
Patient registry for ERCP procedures and related studies
This trial is a registry that collects information about adults who are having an ERCP procedure at the study site. It may help researchers better understand outcomes and improve care by tracking real-world results and possibly running smaller future studies.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT04344769Recruiting
Studying how a kidney-protecting pathway works in ADPKD
This study looks at how the body’s “Nrf2 response” works in people with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). It may help researchers better understand disease biology and future treatments by comparing kidney-related signals in ADPKD patients and healthy volunteers.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–30 - NCT04334031Recruiting
Hospital follow-up study for immune-related disease
This is a study that follows people with an immune-related illness at Lille University Hospital to better understand their care needs over time. By collecting information regularly, the study may help improve how future patients are monitored and treated.
LilleAges 18 years+ - NCT04339270RecruitingPhase 4
Testing azithromycin in chronic lung disease with frequent flare-ups
This Phase 4 study tests whether a long course of azithromycin can reduce flare-ups in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who have had recent exacerbations. It also looks at mucus properties and how flare-ups happen.
BordeauxAges 40–85 - NCT04334707Recruiting
Study kidney damage in people with long-term diabetes
This study is looking at different kidney health patterns in people with diabetes, especially diabetic kidney disease and people who have not developed kidney damage despite long-term diabetes. It may help researchers understand why kidney problems happen—and what protective factors might prevent them.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04337515Recruiting
Study of a new method to prepare stem cell transplants
This feasibility study tests a technique called CLINIMACS to reduce certain immune cells (alpha/beta T-cells) before a stem cell transplant. It may help make the transplant safer and better controlled, but this is an early-stage feasibility test.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges Up to 30 years - NCT04263831RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Low-dose IL-2 to treat Crohn’s disease flare-ups
This trial tests a low dose of IL-2 to reduce inflammation and help control Crohn’s disease symptoms. It’s for people whose Crohn’s disease hasn’t responded to at least one standard treatment or who need steroids to stay under control.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 12–80 - NCT04294771Recruiting
Heart problems linked to cancer immunotherapy drugs
This study looks at reports from large health databases to find out if certain cancer drugs (checkpoint inhibitors) cause heart problems. It aims to understand which patients have a higher risk, which may help doctors watch for heart issues in the future.
ParisAges Any age - NCT04150198Recruiting
PET-MR brain scan study of resilience in Alzheimer’s
This study uses a combined PET and MRI brain scan to understand why some people with Alzheimer’s (and related “focal” types) may cope better than expected. It may help researchers find brain patterns linked to resilience and to different Alzheimer’s subtypes.
OrsayAges 40–80 - NCT04193475Recruiting
Uses computer learning to improve stress heart ultrasound
This study uses computer technology (“machine learning”) with stress echocardiogram images (a heart ultrasound done during stress) to improve how heart function is measured. If you are able to have a stress echocardiogram, you may be able to help test a better way to interpret the results.
CottinghamAges 20–89 - NCT04190758Enrolling by invitation
Early arthritis study for RA, psoriatic arthritis, and psoriasis
This study looks at people with early arthritis related to rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, or psoriasis. Researchers want to understand how these early conditions behave and may help guide better treatment decisions.
GothenburgAges 18–80 - NCT04239079Recruiting
Study of immune-related changes in Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s
This study looks for “autoimmune-like” (immune-system) features in brain-related diseases such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, using genetic testing and other assessments. Results may help researchers understand what drives these conditions and who might be more likely to have immune-related changes.
New York, New YorkAges 55–90 - NCT04224558RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cell transplant for hard-to-control Crohn’s disease
This early-phase study tests whether a stem cell transplant can improve Crohn’s disease in teens and young adults whose disease is active and not responding to standard medicines. It may help some people who are not doing well despite several prior treatments, but it also involves intensive study procedures and safety checks.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 13–28 - NCT04194372Recruiting
Health study of risk markers in people with metabolic conditions
This study looks at your health “risk profile” in a hospital group of people with metabolic conditions like diabetes, obesity, or metabolic syndrome. It mainly focuses on measuring factors to better understand who is at higher risk of health problems over time.
Boulogne-sur-MerAges 18 years+ - NCT04236726Recruiting
Quality of life study for people with chronic breathing failure

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 9,374 recruiting disease 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 disease 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 disease 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.
