ShanghaiAges 40 years+ - NCT03457493RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
TSPO brain scan study in Parkinson’s disease
This trial looks at brain inflammation in people with Parkinson’s using a special PET scan. The goal is to understand how brain immune activity may relate to Parkinson’s, and how the scan results change over time.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 30 years+ - NCT03458195Recruiting
Crohn’s surgery follow-up for ileocecal resection patients
This study follows adults with Crohn’s disease who need surgery to remove the ileocecal area. It aims to better understand post-operative outcomes and what to expect after the operation.
LiègeAges 18–100 - NCT03478826Recruiting
Donate blood samples for a lung disease research biobank
This study builds a “biobank,” a storage of blood and related samples, from people with lung interstitial lung diseases or other lung scarring diseases. Your samples help researchers study these conditions and improve future care.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT03479580Recruiting
Registry for coronary and small-vessel heart disease in cardiomyopathy
This study enrolls people with certain types of heart muscle diseases to learn how blocked heart arteries and tiny blood vessels affect symptoms and outcomes. It may help researchers better understand these conditions and improve future care.
La TroncheAges 18–100 - NCT03488732Recruiting
Heart valve disease registry for people needing valve treatment
This study is a registry that collects information about people with severe heart valve problems who are planning to have a valve procedure. It may help doctors better understand your condition and treatment over time.
MünchenAges 18 years+ - NCT03503331RecruitingPhase 2
Alzheimer’s imaging add-on for research center patients
This study adds special brain scans (MRI and a PET scan) for people already enrolled in the UAB Alzheimer’s Disease Center research program. The scans are used to learn more about brain changes in Alzheimer’s, which may help researchers find better ways to measure and understand the disease.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 50 years+ - NCT03535142Recruiting
Fatty liver in people considering bariatric surgery
This study looks at how fatty liver disease may predict future liver health in people with severe weight gain. It compares people who are planning bariatric (weight-loss) surgery with similar people who are not, to better understand who may be at higher risk.
EsbjergAges 18 years+ - NCT03546309Recruiting
Testing RIC to help children with moyamoya after surgery
This trial studies whether a treatment called RIC (remote ischemic conditioning) is safe and helpful for children with moyamoya disease who undergo revascularization surgery. It aims to improve outcomes after surgery and reduce risk, while carefully tracking safety.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges Up to 18 years - NCT03561818Recruiting
Home or hospital physiotherapy for bronchiectasis efficiency
This study compares how well breathing/airway physiotherapy works when done at home versus in a hospital for people with bronchiectasis. It may help determine which approach is easier and works best while you’re stable.
Istanbul, ZeytinburnuAges 18–75 - NCT03564561Recruiting
Pompe disease study of walking and symptoms over time
This study follows people with Pompe disease to better understand how the disease progresses and how walking function changes. You may help researchers learn what symptoms and test results matter most, without necessarily receiving a new treatment.

Blood tests to study early pancreatic cancer risk
This study looks at blood “markers” to find early signs or higher risk for pancreatic cancer. You may join if you have certain risk factors (like new diabetes, pancreatic cysts/pancreatitis, or a strong family history) and can come to Omaha for blood draws twice a year.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 19 years+ - NCT03569735Recruiting

Sibling bone marrow transplant to reduce treatment side effects
This study tests a way to do a bone marrow (stem cell) transplant from an HLA-matched sibling in children with sickle cell disease, aiming to lower the risk of serious side effects. You may be considered if you have certain past sickle complications and your body can safely handle the transplant plan.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 9,578 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.
