Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges Up to 100 years - NCT02763683Recruiting
Study brain changes in Parkinson-related dementia
This study looks at brain features linked to dementia in people who have Parkinson disease. It may help researchers understand why dementia happens in Parkinson and how it could be detected or treated in the future.
St Louis, MissouriAges 50 years+ - NCT02753777Recruiting
Study for blistering autoimmune skin diseases
This study is for adults with certain autoimmune blistering skin conditions. Researchers want to better understand and test treatments that could improve symptoms and healing for people with these specific diseases.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02743845Recruiting
Find genetic answers for rare, possibly inherited conditions
This trial looks for gene changes that may explain rare conditions, even when the diagnosis is not fully understood. It may help families who have a rare condition or who are related to someone with one.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - 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 - NCT02851043Recruiting
Non-invasive monitor to measure breathing
This study tests a device that checks breathing without needles or painful procedures. It may help doctors learn how well breathing can be measured in people with mild breathing problems, or in healthy volunteers.
Wilmington, DelawareAges 11–17 - NCT02872987Recruiting
Adult blood cancer registry study with stored samples
This study enrolls adults with certain blood cancers to better understand diagnosis, treatment choices, and outcomes. You may also be asked to provide or have tissue/blood samples saved so researchers can study what’s going on in the disease.
GrazAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT02674230Recruiting
Obesity and body clock registry for healthy aging
This study is a registry that collects health information to better understand how weight and your body’s daily rhythm may affect healthy aging. It may help researchers identify patterns linked to aging and future health risks.
TaoyuanAges 20 years+ - NCT02780297Recruiting
Study of rare stone-causing kidney conditions
This study is for people with certain rare kidney conditions that can cause kidney stones. It aims to learn how these conditions behave over time and may help improve future care.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Any age - NCT02954419Recruiting
Biomarker study in kidney disease caused by IgA
This study looks at lab markers (“biomarkers”) in people with IgA nephropathy, using kidney biopsy tissue. It may help researchers find better ways to understand the disease and tailor future care.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 14 years+ - NCT02740868RecruitingPhase 2
Breathing MRI using xenon gas to study lungs
This trial uses a special breathing MRI (you breathe a gas mixture) to measure how well your lungs work. It studies healthy kids and people with lung conditions like cystic fibrosis or asthma, and it may help researchers better understand lung function and flare-ups.
Toronto, OntarioAges 8 years+ - NCT02997293Recruiting
Enhanced recovery after colorectal surgery care program
This study looks at whether a structured “enhanced recovery” plan around the time of colorectal surgery improves outcomes. Because it focuses on a specific group of surgeries done at a specific hospital during certain dates, it may be mainly for people whose surgeries match those records.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT02579967RecruitingPhase 2
Stem cell transplant for primary immune system disorders
This study tests whether an allogeneic stem cell (bone marrow) transplant can correct an inherited immune problem in people with severe primary immunodeficiencies. It may help reduce life-threatening infections and improve quality of life, depending on your overall health and donor match.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 4–75 - NCT02511002Enrolling by invitation
Long-term follow-up after an influenza challenge study
This study keeps track of how your body’s immune responses change over time after an influenza exposure. Researchers may use stored blood samples to study specific antibody levels, which could help improve future flu vaccines or treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT02257866Recruiting
Study of blood vessel inflammation over time
This study looks at different types of blood vessel inflammation (vasculitis) to learn more about why they happen and how they progress. By joining, you may help doctors better understand these conditions and improve future treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3 years+ - NCT02471378Recruiting
Testing a malaria vaccine in pregnant people with malaria
This study looks at lab tests for malaria vaccine candidates in pregnant women who currently have malaria. It may help researchers understand which vaccine approaches are safest and most promising for pregnancy.
BamakoAges 15–25 - NCT02417740Recruiting
Study of the natural course of noncirrhotic portal hypertension
This study follows people with noncirrhotic portal hypertension (NCPH) or people at risk for it to better understand how the condition progresses over time. It does not sound like a medication trial—more like careful monitoring to learn what happens in different people.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 12–100 - NCT02639299Recruiting
Screening healthy adults for malaria vaccines and drug studies
This study screens healthy adults to see who can join future malaria vaccine or investigational malaria drug studies, including a controlled malaria exposure. It may help researchers test safer vaccines/drugs, but participation requires good health and strict medical eligibility.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–50 - 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 - NCT02257892Recruiting
Study of rare immune system genetic disorders
This study looks for genetic causes of immune problems, such as unusually frequent infections, abnormal allergies, or autoimmune or inflammation conditions. It may help by improving how doctors understand these disorders and by matching families with possible genetic diagnoses.

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.
