Using blood stem cells to study heart disease traits
This study uses your blood to create special lab cells (induced pluripotent stem cells) to better understand heart-related differences between people with coronary artery disease and generally healthy older adults. It may help researchers learn what biological traits are linked to heart risk and how those traits work.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT01734122Recruiting
Focused radiation for essential or Parkinson tremor
This trial tests whether precisely targeted radiation to the brain can reduce tremors in people whose symptoms are not controlled enough by medication. It may help those who prefer radiation over deep brain surgery options.

Kidney stone DNA and tissue sample biobank study
This study collects and stores donated samples (like blood, urine, and tissue) from people with certain rare inherited kidney stone conditions. The goal is to build a resource for future research that could help improve diagnosis and treatment.

FFR-guided heart procedure study for coronary artery narrowing
This study follows people who have narrowed heart arteries and have a pressure test (FFR) to guide treatment. It may help doctors understand the course of disease when using FFR and choosing a minimally invasive approach.
AnyangAges 35 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.

This study follows people who are getting a liver transplant (including repeat transplants) to monitor changes in their body using test results. It may help doctors understand how patients are doing after transplant and improve care over time.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT01451502Recruiting
Study uses donor cord blood to restore blood cell production
This study tests giving you donated umbilical cord blood through an IV to help your body rebuild blood-forming cells after chemotherapy. It may help people who need a stem-cell “reset” using a specific type of cord blood unit that meets strict matching and safety rules.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges Any age - NCT02098863Recruiting
Research program for people with sickle cell disease on hydroxyurea
This trial program studies sickle cell disease and how treatment works, especially for people who are already taking hydroxyurea at a stable, maximum tolerated dose. It may help researchers better understand treatment effects and side effects in real patients.
Peoria, IllinoisAges Any age - NCT01453127Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
DaTscan scan for aging and movement brain conditions
This trial uses a special brain scan called DaTscan to study how certain brain conditions change with aging and over time. It may help researchers better understand movement and other neurodegenerative conditions and who may benefit from future treatments.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 40–90 - 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 - NCT02153307Recruiting
Check heart rhythm at home after new left bundle block
This study uses a portable heart monitor to watch for a serious heart rhythm problem called high-degree atrioventricular block in people who develop a new, persistent left bundle branch block after a TAVI valve procedure. It may help catch dangerous rhythm changes earlier and guide treatment sooner.
Québec, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT01186133Recruiting
Testing drug-coated stents in routine heart artery treatment
This trial looks at how different types of drug-coated stents work in everyday care for people with blocked heart arteries. It may help doctors choose the best stent type to keep the artery open after treatment.
Multiple LocationsAges 19 years+ - NCT00588562Recruiting
Registry for inherited rare kidney stone disorders
This registry collects information from people with certain inherited rare kidney stone conditions. It helps researchers learn about the conditions and supports future studies that may improve care.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges birth–100 years - NCT00575081Recruiting
Brain mapping during stereotactic procedures
This study builds a “brain atlas” by collecting information during stereotactic brain procedures. It may help doctors better plan and understand these brain procedures in the future.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 6–90 - NCT00833599Enrolling by invitation
Scan lymph drainage and collect samples for related conditions
This study uses a special light scan after a dye is given to look at how your lymph system drains. It may also include genetic testing for people with a family history of lymph-related disorders to better understand causes.
Houston, TexasAges 3 months+ - NCT00258583Recruiting
ILD patient registry at UPMC Simmons Center
This study is a registry that collects information from adults with interstitial lung disease (ILD) who are seeking care at the UPMC Simmons Center. It helps the center learn about ILD and improve future treatment planning.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT00373841Recruiting
Study of genetic and protein changes in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
This study looks at genetic (DNA) and protein changes over time in people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, to better understand how the disease progresses. Your participation may help researchers learn patterns that could guide future care.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT00762333Recruiting
Blood tests after a heart attack to study heart strain markers
This study looks at blood test “markers” soon after an acute heart attack, to better understand heart damage and whether heart failure is present. It may help doctors improve how they monitor recovery and risk in people after a heart attack.
Farmington, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT00345930Recruiting
Study of liver injury after medicines or supplements
This study looks at people (including children over age 2) who develop liver injury that may be caused by a drug or a complementary/alternative medicine (CAM) product. It helps doctors better understand what causes the injury and how to evaluate it.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 2 years+ - NCT00704626Enrolling by invitation
Blood antibody tests in autoimmune brain and nerve diseases
This study looks at blood “auto-antibodies,” which are immune proteins that may attack the body, in people with certain brain and nerve conditions. It may help researchers better understand these diseases and how the immune system is involved.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT00131014Recruiting
Building a family tumor and genetics bank for blood cancers
This study collects and stores tumor/tissue information and family medical history from people with certain blood cancers. It aims to help researchers understand why these illnesses may run in families and use genetic clues for future research.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT00593203Enrolling by invitation
Share a brain tissue sample during surgery
This study collects a small piece of brain tissue during people’s planned brain surgery. It may help researchers learn more about brain conditions and improve future care.

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.
