Recruiting studies
- NCT02923440Recruiting
Donate DNA and help build a congenital heart study database
This study creates a DNA bank and a French database for babies and children with certain types of congenital heart defects, to better understand genetic causes. You’ll be asked to have a blood test and share consent, even though care can continue as usual at the study hospital.

Study comparing fatty liver types and healthy livers
This study compares liver samples and blood tests from people with alcohol-related fatty liver disease, alcohol-related hepatitis, and cirrhosis (including some with liver cancer) against healthy controls. It aims to better tell these liver conditions apart and understand what is different between them.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–75 - NCT03204357Recruiting
Using your own blood after heart-lung machine surgery
This trial studies giving a “fresh” blood transfusion from your own blood after heart surgery that uses a heart-lung machine. It may help patients avoid needing donated blood, but it only works for people who meet specific safety and timing requirements.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–90 - NCT03209791Recruiting
Study alcohol-related effects on muscle recycling in the liver

This study looks at how pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) deficiency affects people over time and what genes are involved. It mainly helps by building genetic and health data, which may improve future care and understanding of the condition.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges Any age - NCT02947750RecruitingPhase 2
Exercise study in people with kidney disease
This Phase 2 study tests how engaging in supervised exercise affects the body’s blood-vessel responses in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) who don’t exercise regularly. It may help researchers understand whether exercise could be beneficial for CKD-related health changes.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18–75 - NCT03109288RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Biomarker-guided combination treatment for residual multiple sclerosis activity
This early-phase study tests combination treatments for multiple sclerosis (MS) based on lab “biomarkers” found in the spinal fluid. It aims to reduce ongoing MS activity and help determine which treatment combinations may work best for different people.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT02936791Recruiting
Study of early inherited kidney cysts and healthy volunteers
This observational study follows people early in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and also some healthy volunteers to learn how the kidneys work over time. It may help researchers understand early changes, which could guide future treatments.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 4–35 - NCT03222375Recruiting
Home treatment for autism using special sound and imaging devices
This trial studies a home-based treatment for autism (or related conditions) using specially designed sound, image, and electromagnetic devices. It aims to see whether this personalized “treatment code” and device approach can improve autism-related skills and behaviors.
Louisville, KentuckyAges 1 month–21 years - NCT02961413Recruiting
Study of drug-related liver injury in China
This study follows people who developed liver injury from a medicine (not from other causes). It aims to better describe different types and severities of drug-related liver injury and may help improve how clinicians recognize and manage it.
ShanghaiAges Any age - NCT06675864RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
YTB323 for non-active progressive MS
This trial tests a new treatment called YTB323, which is a type of personalized cell therapy (CAR-T) designed to target your immune system and slow down MS progression. It is for people with non-active progressive MS who have seen their disability worsen recently.
Darlinghurst, New South WalesAges 18–60 - NCT06813339RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing a new drug in healthy people and those with heart condition
This trial tests a new medicine called UDP-003 in two groups: healthy volunteers and people who had a heart event (acute coronary syndrome) at least a year ago. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and how the body handles it, which could lead to better treatments for heart disease.
Adelaide, South AustraliaAges 18–79 - NCT06488638Recruiting
Beetroot juice supplement for lung fibrosis
This trial tests whether a beetroot juice drink (rich in nitrates) can help people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis breathe better and exercise more. It's a small pilot study to see if it's safe and worth studying further.

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.
