Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06360302Recruiting
Exercise and insulin resistance in dialysis patients
This study looks at how exercise affects muscle metabolism and insulin resistance in people on dialysis, compared to those with metabolic syndrome and healthy individuals. It aims to find blood markers that could help assess insulin resistance in dialysis patients.
MontpellierAges 40–75 - NCT07615829Recruiting
Dance Exercise and Health Benefits in Women
This study examines how regular dance exercise affects overall health and wellbeing in women. Researchers want to understand if dancing can improve physical fitness, mood, and other health markers.
Trikala, KariesAges 35–70 - NCT05307367Recruiting
Study exercise and body muscle changes in advanced lung cancer
This study looks at why cancer can cause loss of muscle in people with advanced non–small cell lung cancer, and whether exercise can improve or explain those muscle changes. You may be asked to do physical testing and answer questionnaires while receiving standard palliative cancer treatment.
Copenhagen, DKAges 18–100 - NCT06961773Enrolling by invitation

Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 19–55 - NCT06997315Recruiting
Bath Myorhythms: muscle rhythms and metabolism study
This study looks at how your body's internal clock affects muscle rhythms and metabolism. You will stay in a lab for a day while we take small muscle samples and measure your sleep, activity, and responses to a local anesthetic.
BathAges 18–50 - NCT07426172Recruiting
Lactate levels and metabolism in active adults
This trial looks at how high lactate levels (a natural chemical in your body) affect the way your body uses fat and sugar. It is for people with metabolic syndrome who are already physically active.
San Javier, MurciaAges 18–65 - NCT07644000Recruiting
Hydrogen inhalation and exercise response in healthy women
This study tests whether breathing in molecular hydrogen before exercise affects how your body uses energy during physical activity. Researchers want to see if this simple intervention might improve exercise performance or recovery in healthy women.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for exercise metabolism?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 76 recruiting exercise metabolism 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 exercise metabolism 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 exercise metabolism 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.
