Recruiting studies
- NCT03895359RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo plus targeted radiation versus chemo alone for liver cancer
This trial compares two treatments for liver cancer that can’t be removed with surgery: chemo through the liver (TACE) alone versus TACE plus a precise radiation treatment (SBRT). It may help people whose cancer stays in the liver but can’t be operated on, by testing whether adding focused radiation improves outcomes.

Ultrasound tests to predict early response to prostate and head/neck radiation
This study uses special ultrasound imaging to look for early signs of how well radiation treatment is working in prostate, rectum, and head/neck cancers. It may help doctors spot response sooner and adjust care earlier if needed.
Toronto, OntarioAges Any age - NCT03910010Recruiting
Brain scan study to study pain-related body signals in fibromyalgia
This study uses MRI brain scans to look for body “signals” (biomarkers) that may relate to chronic pain, including fibromyalgia. It may help researchers better understand what’s going on in the brain for people with long-term pain.
Halifax, Nova ScotiaAges 18–75 - NCT03909412RecruitingPhase 1
Carfilzomib chemo to help you collect stem cells for transplant
This Phase 1 study tests a carfilzomib-based treatment plan to help people with multiple myeloma collect enough stem cells for an autologous (using your own) stem cell transplant. It’s mainly about whether this mobilization approach works and is safe for you.

Clermont-FerrandAges 6–18 - NCT03915015Recruiting
MRI and heart device check with older pacemakers/ICDs
This study helps people who need an MRI scan, especially those with implanted heart devices like pacemakers or defibrillators. It checks whether an MRI can be done safely using specific device models and added screening rules.
Portland, OregonAges 9–99 - NCT03920774Recruiting
Study of Familial Dysautonomia in People With IKBKAP Changes
This study looks at how familial dysautonomia (FD) progresses over time in people who have a confirmed IKBKAP genetic change. It may help doctors better understand the condition and plan future treatments.
New York, New YorkAges 4 years+ - NCT03932786Recruiting
Study of health and wellbeing after retinoblastoma treatment
This study looks at long-term health outcomes—how patients are doing physically and in daily life—after treatment for retinoblastoma. It may help doctors understand what support or follow-up care could be most helpful after treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges Any age - NCT03928509Recruiting
Study of people in Quebec who had COVID-19 in early 2021
This is a study for adults in Quebec who were diagnosed with COVID-19 between November 2020 and May 2021. It aims to learn more about people’s experiences and outcomes after COVID-19, which could help improve future care.
Sherbrooke, QuebecAges Any age - NCT03937453Recruiting
Pancreatic cancer screening for people with new or worsening diabetes
This study checks whether regular imaging can find pancreatic cancer earlier in people who recently developed diabetes or whose diabetes is getting worse. It may help detect pancreatic problems sooner when treatment options are likely better.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 50 years+ - NCT03949400Recruiting
Exercise therapy and a soft knee brace for knee arthritis
This study tests whether an exercise program plus education, along with a soft brace, helps improve symptoms and function in adults with knee osteoarthritis. It may help people who have knee pain by combining movement training with daily support.
Aalborg, NothernAges 18 years+ - NCT03954899Recruiting
Melatonin test for brain health in older adults
This study tests whether taking 5 mg of melatonin can improve thinking and brain health over time in older adults with early, mild symptoms. You may help researchers learn which brain changes and measures improve with melatonin.
Iowa City, IowaAges 56–85 - NCT03957343Recruiting
Parkwood Pacing and Planning app for concussion recovery
This study tests a smartphone or tablet app (the Parkwood Pacing and Planning app) that may help people after a mild concussion manage recovery. You may be able to join if you’re an adult, can use the app device, and have a confirmed mild concussion.
London, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT03968393RecruitingPhase 4
Blood thinner to prevent stroke after stress-related irregular heartbeats
This trial tests whether taking a blood thinner can lower the risk of stroke in people who had atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) that happened temporarily around a stressful illness or surgery. It looks especially at people at higher risk for stroke after that episode.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 55 years+ - NCT03963622Recruiting
Test of careful breathing support for severe lung distress
This study compares a more careful ventilation approach for people with severe lung breathing failure (ARDS). It aims to improve outcomes by using a specific strategy for how the ventilator controls breathing.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT03973268RecruitingPhase 1
Ketamine study to understand treatment response in hard-to-treat depression
This early-stage study tests ketamine and looks at what brain changes may explain why it helps people with major depression that hasn’t improved with usual treatments. You may be asked to stay in the hospital and complete detailed interviews, mood rating scales, and brain imaging.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–70 - NCT03976245RecruitingPhase 4
Tested new advanced treatment options for rheumatoid arthritis
This trial studies advanced medicines for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in people whose RA is still active despite several standard treatments. It may help by testing whether a different advanced option can better control symptoms and joint inflammation.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for health?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 5,570 recruiting health 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 health 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 health 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.
