Recruiting studies
- NCT04286308Recruiting
Testing brain-speech recordings during DBS for movement disorders

Find the best treatment plan for a lung infection
This study looks for the best way to treat Mycobacterium abscessus (MABS), a difficult lung infection. You may join a treatment group, or first join an observation group and possibly move into treatment later if you meet the criteria.
Kogarah, New South WalesAges Any age - NCT04291612Recruiting
Observational study of standard surgery for uterine cancer in women
This is a research study that looks at outcomes in women with endometrial (uterine) cancer who receive the usual standard surgery. Researchers will group patients based on the final surgical and pathology results and what additional (if any) treatment is recommended afterward.
Hartford, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT04338048Recruiting
Study for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease
This study enrolls people who have been diagnosed with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), a genetic kidney condition that can cause kidney cysts. It aims to learn about this specific form of the disease so better care is possible for the right patients.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges Up to 18 years - NCT04297085Recruiting
Study of why blood clots in veins come back
This study follows people who have had a vein blood clot (or related venous clot) to understand what factors may make the clot happen again. It may help clinicians find better ways to prevent repeat clots.
BrestAges Any age - NCT04333706RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Sarilumab plus capecitabine for certain breast cancers
This trial studies whether adding sarilumab to capecitabine can shrink or control metastatic or high-risk breast cancer that lacks HER2 and is either triple-negative or hormone-resistant. It aims to find a safe dose first, then look at how well the treatment works compared with historical results.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–99 - NCT04343365Recruiting
Using tumor evolution to guide treatment choices
This trial uses information from your tumor’s changes over time to help your care team suggest treatment options. It may help people who are unlikely to be cured with standard treatment by testing new, personalized strategy plans.
Tampa, FloridaAges Any age - NCT04270045Recruiting
Breathing test in babies with bronchopulmonary dysplasia
This trial studies a breathing measurement test (forced oscillometry) in babies who were born early and have bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), a long-term lung condition. It may help doctors better understand how babies’ lungs are working and guide future care.
Kansas City, MissouriAges Any age - NCT04278404Recruiting
Drug safety study for children already on certain medicines
This study measures how certain medicines move through the body and checks their safety in children. It may help doctors better understand dosing and side effects in kids who are already receiving these treatments, or in some kids who recently tested positive for COVID-19.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges birth–20 years - NCT04261478Recruiting
Treatment for stroke caused by blocked brain and neck arteries
This trial studies a procedure that opens blocked blood vessels in and behind the brain during a stroke, sometimes after standard clot-thinning medicine. It may help people who have brain tissue that can still be saved and a major blockage in both the neck and brain arteries.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT04258488RecruitingPhase 4
Blood thinner pill vs warfarin after mechanical aortic valve
This study compares a blood thinner pill (a factor Xa inhibitor) with warfarin (vitamin K antagonist) in people who have had a mechanical aortic valve replacement. It looks at which option works better and is safer over the long term.
Bucheon-siAges 19 years+ - NCT04281823Recruiting
MRI heart scan study for people with heart conditions
This study looks at heart problems using a special MRI scan called a cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) scan. It may help doctors learn more about how to assess and understand cardiovascular disease using detailed heart images.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT04374799RecruitingPhase 3
Heparin vs placebo during cardiac catheterization
This trial tests whether giving heparin (a blood thinner) during a specific type of heart procedure is safer and works better than not giving it. It focuses on patients where the blood supply in the hand’s artery connection is functioning properly.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT04321512Recruiting
Blood test study for people with heart or stroke problems
This study looks at a type of white blood cell (monocytes) in blood to understand differences in people with certain heart attacks, stable heart disease, or ischemic stroke. It may help researchers learn why these conditions happen and how the immune system may be involved.
Farmington, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT04365855Recruiting
Study of fatty liver risk in local adults
This study looks at how common fatty liver disease is and what factors may be linked to it in adults in Olmsted County. You may be asked about health history, alcohol use, and possibly to undergo MRI scans.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 9,353 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.
