Recruiting studies
- NCT04417387Recruiting
Check genetics to improve heart disease risk prediction
This study looks at whether adding genetic information to a standard NHS Health Check can better predict a person’s risk of coronary artery disease (CAD). If you qualify, you may be asked to provide genetic information to help refine future risk estimates.
LeicesterAges 40–74 - NCT04419480Recruiting
Monitoring to help prevent complications after cardiogenic shock

Study to understand eye disease risk in premature babies
This study looks at newborn eye exams and genetic information to better understand why some premature infants develop a serious vision problem called ROP. You may be invited because your baby needs routine eye screening or is being moved for specialized eye care.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges Up to 1 year - NCT04421768Recruiting
Training for cervical exams in labor and delivery care
This trial studies whether a structured training program helps healthcare staff perform cervical exams more effectively during labor. It may improve how labor and delivery care is delivered at the hospital.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges Any age - NCT04427462Recruiting
Study of energy balance and heart health in children
This study looks at how children’s “energy use” relates to heart and metabolism health. It may help doctors understand what healthy and unhealthy patterns look like in kids.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 8–10 - NCT04428528Recruiting
Ultrasound-like pictures that track breast tumors during chemotherapy
This study uses a special light-based imaging scan to learn more about breast masses and how tumors may respond to chemotherapy before surgery. The scan is meant to help doctors better characterize tumors and potentially track treatment response.
Toronto, OntarioAges Any age - NCT04428515Recruiting
Photoacoustic scans for untreated head and neck cancer
This study tests a special imaging scan (photoacoustic imaging) to help doctors look at head and neck cancer before treatment. It’s for people who have not had first-line therapy yet and will be starting radiotherapy.
Toronto, OntarioAges Any age - NCT04430257Recruiting
PrEP for people at higher risk of HIV
This study checks whether taking HIV prevention medicine called PrEP can help protect people who are not living with HIV but have recent risk of HIV exposure. You may qualify if you have ongoing risk and are not already taking PrEP.
Cambridge, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04447742Recruiting
Study of how healthy babies’ gut microbes develop from birth
This study follows pregnant people from about 20 weeks until delivery, to understand how gut microbes (tiny organisms in the intestines) develop in healthy babies. It may help researchers learn how early-life gut development affects health later on.
BernAges 18–45 - NCT04455867Recruiting
Study of type 2 diabetes risk and early treatment
This study looks at people who may be on the way to developing type 2 diabetes or who have it, to see how to help and better understand the condition. Depending on the part of the study you join, it may include brain scans and sleep testing.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT04460859Recruiting
Testing an electrical monitor in moderately severe lung failure
This trial tests a bedside breathing and lung-monitoring method that uses small electrodes on the chest. It is meant for people with moderate to severe ARDS (a serious lung inflammation problem) who are on a breathing machine, to help guide care.
São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT04460872RecruitingPhase 2
Testosterone plus walking training to support bones and muscles
This Phase 2 study tests whether testosterone therapy combined with walking training can improve bone and muscle health after a spinal cord injury. It aims to help men with low testosterone and walking problems by improving strength, body composition, and related health markers.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04468932Recruiting
TMS brain stimulation for progressive supranuclear palsy
This trial tests whether repeated non-invasive magnetic brain stimulation (TMS) can improve symptoms in people with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). It may help by targeting brain circuits involved in movement and balance.
Portland, OregonAges 40–85 - NCT04473196Recruiting
See if weight-bearing changes recovery after first toe joint fusion
This study looks at whether doing more or less weight-bearing affects recovery after a first toe (1st MTP) joint fusion. It may help improve walking comfort and healing after surgery for people whose non-surgical treatments did not work.
Halifax, Nova ScotiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04474301Recruiting
Quality of life check for people with melanoma during COVID-19
This study looks at how people with melanoma are feeling during the COVID-19 pandemic, including quality of life. You may be asked to share information through surveys or study contact so the researchers can understand needs and concerns.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT04477928Recruiting
Checking type 1 diabetes risk using routine child care
This study estimates the chance of developing type 1 diabetes in children by using information gathered during regular well-child visits. It may help identify children who could benefit from earlier monitoring.
Bemidji, MinnesotaAges birth–17 years - NCT04478838RecruitingPhase 4
Alternate-day antipsychotic dosing for schizophrenia
This trial looks at whether taking an antipsychotic every other day can keep symptoms controlled in adults with schizophrenia or another psychotic disorder. It may help some people avoid daily dosing, but it requires specific medication stability and screening checks.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT04482374Recruiting
Puberty blockers and heart/metabolic health in teens
This study looks at how puberty suppression (puberty blockers) may affect heart health and metabolism in children who are early in puberty. It may help researchers understand who benefits most and what changes happen during treatment.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 9–14 - NCT04489342Recruiting
Tests sensor-based movement assessment in axial spondyloarthritis patients
This trial studies an advanced “sensor-based” way to assess how your spine and hips move in people with axial spondyloarthritis. It may help researchers better measure function and choose/monitor treatment, especially for those considered for biologic therapy.
Londonderry, N.IrelandAges 18–80 - NCT04499066Recruiting
Mental health study during early pregnancy in Guangzhou
This study follows pregnant people in early pregnancy to better understand mental health during the perinatal (pregnancy and around delivery) period. It may help the clinic improve support for mental well-being before and after birth.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges Any age - NCT04508088Recruiting
Study of bones and bone marrow in new Crohn’s
This study looks at how Crohn’s disease affects bones and bone marrow soon after diagnosis. It may help researchers understand disease effects and improve future care, either by comparing you to healthy controls or by tracking changes over time.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 13–20 - NCT04510636RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab and bendamustine for Hodgkin lymphoma
This study tests whether combining the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab (Keytruda) with the chemotherapy bendamustine can help people with Hodgkin lymphoma whose cancer returned or did not respond to earlier treatment. The goal is to see if this two-drug combination works better than either drug alone.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT04512755Recruiting
AIMS medical outcomes study for new or established patients
This is an observational study where the AIMS team collects information from patients during a first visit or ongoing care. It helps the clinic understand patients’ experiences and outcomes, but it does not test a new medicine.

Tested medicine nabilone for agitation in Alzheimer’s dementia
This Phase 3 trial studies whether nabilone can reduce agitation (restlessness, anger, or difficult behavior) in people with Alzheimer’s dementia. It’s designed for older adults who already have agitation despite standard dementia care.

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.
