Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT01218776Recruiting
Survey study for people with acute heart symptoms
This study is an international survey about acute coronary syndromes, which are sudden signs of heart-related problems. Your answers can help researchers better understand symptoms and care needs after these events.
Bologna, Emilia-RomagnaAges 18 years+ - NCT01499394Recruiting
Biorepository study for adults who can consent
This study collects and stores samples (such as tissue or other biological materials) for future research. It mainly seeks adults who can agree to participate after understanding what it involves.
Mobile, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT01354002Recruiting
Tissue banking for research at St. Jude
This study collects, stores, and shares human tissue samples for future research at St. Jude. You or your family may be eligible if your institution has approved this process through their ethics board (IRB) and you (or a study leader) gave consent for tissue banking.
Huntsville, AlabamaAges Any age - NCT01280994RecruitingPhase 2
Lung MRI test using special gas to measure breathing
This Phase 2 study uses a special type of MRI with inhaled gas to measure how well your lungs work. It may help researchers better understand lung function in healthy people and in people with lung disease.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT01668186Recruiting
Study of how peroxisome disorders change over time
This study follows people with peroxisome biogenesis disorders (PBD) or closely related enzyme/protein defects to learn how symptoms and health changes over time. It may help researchers better understand the condition and plan future treatments.
Montreal, QuebecAges Any age - NCT02022943Recruiting
Join an Alzheimer's prevention registry website
This trial builds a registry so researchers can contact you about future Alzheimer’s studies. It mainly requires agreeing to the registry’s website terms and conditions.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18–110 - NCT02317328Recruiting
Adaptive eye imaging to take very detailed retinal pictures
This study uses special “adaptive optics” equipment to capture very detailed images of the retina (the nerve layer at the back of the eye). It may help improve eye tests for people with eye disease and also includes some healthy volunteers.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 12–120 - NCT02897297Recruiting
Brest study for blood disorders tracking
This is an observational study that follows people with certain blood disorders. It aims to learn more about how these conditions behave in real life, which can help improve future care.
BrestAges Any age - NCT02852031Recruiting
Care program for newborns needing the Norwood procedure
This trial focuses on improving care for babies born with certain complex heart conditions where only one pumping chamber works. It is meant for babies (including unborn babies) who are planned to have the Norwood procedure, which is a common early surgery.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 9,506 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.
