- NCT05947071RecruitingPhase 2
Higher-dose flu vaccine versus standard dose in child transplant patients
This trial compares a higher-dose flu vaccine to the standard dose in children who recently received a kidney, heart, and/or liver transplant. It aims to see which dose better protects children against influenza while checking for safety.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 3–17 - NCT03346772RecruitingPhase 4
Study immune response after your flu shot
This study looks at how your immune system responds after you get a routine flu vaccine. It may help researchers understand who builds strong protection and how vaccination works in everyday adults.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05108818RecruitingPhase 4
Study immune responses after an flu shot in healthy adults
This study gives you a flu vaccine and measures how your immune system reacts, including both “blood immunity” and “cell immunity.” It’s for healthy adults and mainly aims to better understand how well flu vaccines work in people without major health issues.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06094010RecruitingPhase 3
Flu treatment and transmission study for children and families
This study tests how well a single-dose flu treatment (baloxavir marboxil) works for children with the flu and whether it stops the flu from spreading to family members. If your child has early flu symptoms and lives with others, participation could help protect your household.
Smithfield, PennsylvaniaAges 3 weeks–11 years - NCT02735707RecruitingPhase 3
Adaptive trial for severe pneumonia care in intensive care
This study tests ways to improve treatment for adults with severe pneumonia that lands them in the ICU, adjusting the plan as results come in. It may help your care team find better treatments for lung infection and breathing/heart support needs.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06672692Recruiting
Study of a new test for flu, RSV, and COVID-19 in people with symptoms
This trial evaluates a new test that can detect flu A/B, RSV, and COVID-19 from a single nose swab. It is for people who are currently sick with respiratory symptoms and are either hospitalized, in the ER, visiting a clinic, or living in a long-term care facility.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges Any age - NCT06807840Recruiting
Flu infection study at Penn Medicine
This study looks at how people's immune systems respond to the flu. If you have a positive flu test at a Penn Medicine location and are 18 or older, you may be able to join.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07431853RecruitingPhase 2
Study of an mRNA flu vaccine for adults

What taking part in a influenza study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

- Yes. We're currently tracking 8 recruiting influenza studies with a site in Pennsylvania, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a influenza study in Pennsylvania?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Pennsylvania to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Pennsylvania, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a influenza trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
