Immunotherapy guided by urine DNA for high risk bladder cancer
This trial tests a new immunotherapy approach for people with a very high risk type of bladder cancer that hasn't spread into the muscle layer. The treatment is guided by a special urine test that looks for tumor DNA, and it may help if surgery cannot remove all the cancer or you choose not to have your bladder removed.
TianjinAges 18 years+ - NCT07480785Recruiting
Nerve stimulation plus 3 anti-nausea drugs for surgery nausea
This trial tests whether combining a gentle electrical nerve stimulation technique (called TEAS) with three standard anti-nausea medicines can better prevent nausea and vomiting after laparoscopic surgery in women at high risk. If you qualify, you would receive the stimulation plus the medicines, or the medicines alone, to see which works best.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–65 - NCT07485244Recruiting
EEG brain monitoring in ICU patients at risk for delirium
This study uses a simple headband (EEG) to monitor brain activity in ICU patients who are at high risk for delirium. The goal is to see if the EEG can help detect delirium earlier, so doctors can provide better care.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05777512Recruiting
Comparing feeding tube placement to improve breathing in preterm infants
This study tests whether placing a feeding tube past the stomach (postpyloric) can help very premature babies with ongoing lung problems breathe better. Infants born before 32 weeks who still need breathing support may join.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for high risk?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 923 recruiting high risk 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 high risk 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 high risk 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.
