Tablet for helping children with rare genetic conditions communicate
This study tests whether a speech-generating tablet (like an iPad with a communication app) can help children with rare genetic conditions who are minimally verbal (using fewer than 50 words) to communicate better. If your child fits the criteria, they could get a device and training to see if it helps them express themselves more easily.

Study genes behind rare, genetic-looking illnesses
This study is trying to find the gene or body-process cause of rare diseases (or rare forms of common diseases) when the reason is not yet understood. If you qualify, you may be asked to give genetic and health information that could help doctors diagnose and understand the condition better.
DijonAges Any age - NCT07787975Enrolling by invitation
Understanding genetic test results with RNA sequencing
This study uses a special test called RNA sequencing to find genetic causes of diseases when standard genetic tests didn't give answers. It might help you get a clearer diagnosis or find out if a genetic change actually causes your condition.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 2 years+ - NCT07387263Recruiting
Digital tool for genetic testing in cancer care
This study tests a digital tool that helps cancer doctors offer genetic testing to more patients. If you've already had genetic testing started by your oncologist, you may be able to join.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07377006Recruiting
Genetic testing decision support for prostate cancer
This study tests a tool to help prostate cancer patients understand and decide about genetic testing. It is designed for patients at LBJ Hospital who have been recommended for testing by their doctor.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04738708Recruiting
Phone vs in-person genetic counseling for cancer risk
This study compares two ways of getting genetic counseling—by phone/video or in person—for people who may have hereditary cancer syndromes like HBOC or Lynch syndrome. It may help find which counseling approach works best for understanding results and next steps.
SingaporeAges 21 years+ - NCT04824053Recruiting
Dairy products study for people at high risk of colon cancer
This trial studies whether specific dairy products (UNICLA-A2) can help lower the risk of future colon problems in people considered high risk for colorectal cancer. You may be asked to keep using dairy consistently and undergo colon checks as part of usual follow-up.
Zaragoza, ZaragozaAges 18–80 - NCT06898307Recruiting
Genetic test study for inherited heart rhythm conditions
This study uses genetic testing to better diagnose, predict, and manage inherited heart rhythm diseases. It is designed for patients at the University of Ferrara's Cardiogenetic Center who have a confirmed genetic heart condition.
FerraraAges Any age - NCT06455384Recruiting
Studying a digital tool for genetic testing services
This trial tests a new online tool called the Genetics Navigator, which helps people access genetic testing services more easily. If you or your child have been referred for genetic testing at Mount Sinai Hospital or SickKids in Toronto, this study may help you manage the process online.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06340646Recruiting
Washington University cancer gene study
This study collects genetic information from people with certain cancers to learn more about cancer risks and outcomes. It may help researchers understand how genes affect cancer in different groups.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT05656261Recruiting
Genetic testing study for African Americans
This study looks at genetic markers (genes) related to kidney risk in Black/African American adults. It may help researchers better understand who is at higher risk and how genetics could guide future care.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18–90 - NCT05236595Enrolling by invitation
Personalized study for rare genetic diseases using genetic “target” drugs
This study looks for rare genetic conditions where a personalized genetic medicine (an antisense drug) could potentially work. If the team finds a “targetable” DNA or RNA change in your family, you may be followed to see how the best therapy could be planned.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges Any age - NCT04254133Enrolling by invitation
Study uses genetics to guide prostate cancer care and screening
This study collects saliva and health/family history information to learn how inherited (genetic) factors relate to prostate cancer. The goal is to improve how treatment and future screening are planned for people and families.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 35–89 - NCT02543905Recruiting
Profile study for men at higher prostate cancer risk
This trial looks at how inherited risk (family history or gene findings) relates to screening and treatment for prostate cancer. If you qualify, you may be offered prostate screening tests and follow-up to see how well risk information predicts next steps.
Sutton, SurreyAges 40–69 - NCT02266615Recruiting
Biobank for genetic testing in new clinic patients
This trial collects body samples from new patients so doctors can run genetic tests and better understand inherited conditions. You might join if you are visiting the clinical genetics clinic for the first time and your sample is needed for genetic diagnostics.
Maastricht, LimburgAges Any age - NCT07650149Recruiting
Study of genes, gut bacteria, and lifestyle in obesity
This study looks at how genes, gut bacteria, and lifestyle behaviors relate to weight. Researchers will test a weight-loss medication (tirzepatide) as part of the study to see if it helps people with overweight or obesity.
KrakowAges 18–65 - NCT05487846Recruiting
Peer support during genetic testing for metastatic prostate cancer
This trial offers support from a trained peer to help African American men understand and go through genetic testing for prostate cancer. It may help you feel less overwhelmed and better prepared during the testing and decision-making process.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for genetics?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 693 recruiting genetics 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 genetics 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 genetics 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.
