Recruiting studies
- NCT01694940Recruiting
Mitochondrial disease registry and sample collection study
This trial builds a large database and collection of lab results, and possibly tissue samples, from people with suspected or diagnosed mitochondrial conditions. It helps researchers learn more about these disorders and mitochondrial DNA changes, which may improve future diagnosis and treatments.

Pancreas disease registry for people at risk or with pancreatic cancer
This study collects health information and stored samples (biospecimens) to learn more about pancreatic diseases, including cancer and early warning changes. It may help researchers understand who is at higher risk and improve future testing and care.
New York, New YorkAges 18–85 - NCT00628199Enrolling by invitation
Skin sample study to create future cell therapies
This study collects skin cells from people with certain long-term conditions (or specific genetic disorders). Researchers use the cells to try to build new treatments for human disease and disability in the future.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 1–75 - NCT00260585Recruiting
Esophageal risk and tissue registry study
This study collects information and, if you already need blood tests or procedures, may take extra small tissue samples (biopsies) to better understand esophageal-related conditions. It may help researchers learn about risk and future management for people with certain esophagus or reflux-related diagnoses.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT00327860Recruiting
Kidney disease in children study that follows patients over time
This is a long-term study that watches children and young adults with chronic kidney disease to understand how the illness changes and to improve care. You may be asked to complete regular visits and questionnaires, and your kidney function will be tracked over time.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 6 months–22 years - NCT00272883Recruiting
Study genes in congenital muscle weakness
This research study looks at genes and molecules to better understand congenital myopathies (birth-related muscle weakness). It may help explain the cause of symptoms and improve future diagnoses for you and your family.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT00904878Recruiting
Study of pregnancy outcomes for people with inflammatory bowel disease
This study looks at how pregnancy and newborn outcomes turn out for people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) who are pregnant and taking immune-suppressing medicines or biologic therapies. It may help doctors better understand risks and care for mothers and babies in similar situations.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–45 - NCT01171872Enrolling by invitation
Study blood and tissue gene signals in bowel inflammation
This study looks at gene activity (what your body’s genes are “doing”) in people with bowel inflammation during endoscopy or bowel surgery. It may help researchers understand inflammatory bowel disease and improve future diagnosis or treatments.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 7 years+ - NCT00092235Recruiting
Understanding chronic graft-versus-host disease outcomes
This study follows patients who have had a stem cell transplant and developed chronic graft-versus-host disease (a condition where transplanted cells attack the body). Researchers will track your symptoms and collect blood samples to understand what affects how well patients do over time.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1–120 - NCT00091871Recruiting
Understanding familial high eosinophil disease in families
This study follows families with a genetic condition that causes high levels of white blood cells called eosinophils. Researchers want to understand how the disease develops and changes over time to help predict who may get worse and how to treat it better.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1–100 - NCT01200953Recruiting
Study care after contact with serious infectious germs
This study helps doctors manage people who may have been exposed to, infected with, or are recovering from dangerous infectious germs (including emerging outbreaks). It may help by setting safe evaluation and care steps after these high-risk exposures.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–99 - NCT00557726Recruiting
Evaluation and care for inflammatory or infectious illnesses
This trial helps doctors evaluate possible infection or inflammation and decide on the best management plan. You may be able to receive specialized care at the NIH if the study team thinks your situation fits.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–100 - NCT00077909Recruiting
Study of Lung Proteins in Patients With Pneumonia
This research study examines proteins in fluid collected from your lungs during a breathing tube procedure (bronchoscopy) to better understand pneumonia. By studying these proteins, researchers hope to improve how doctors diagnose and treat lung infections.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–99 - NCT00047996Enrolling by invitation
Blood Donation Study for Blood Vessel Research
This study collects blood and urine samples from adults to help researchers understand diseases affecting blood vessels. Your donation helps scientists develop better treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT00001159Recruiting
Thyroid disorder natural history study
This study observes people with various thyroid conditions, including overactive or underactive thyroid, to learn more about how these disorders develop and progress over time. It may help improve future diagnosis and treatment.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 6 months–98 years - NCT00001281Recruiting
Understanding how HIV affects blood cells and body fluids
This research study examines how HIV works in the blood and body fluids of people with and without HIV. By studying blood samples, researchers hope to better understand HIV infection and develop better treatments.

Understanding and Diagnosing Pheochromocytoma and Paraganglioma
This study helps doctors better understand and diagnose pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma—rare tumors that release stress hormones and cause high blood pressure and other symptoms. Researchers will study your medical history, blood and urine tests, imaging scans, and genetic information to improve how these conditions are found and understood.

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.
