CAR T cell therapy for AL amyloidosis
This trial tests a CAR T cell therapy that targets two proteins (CD19 and BCMA) on the surface of abnormal plasma cells. It is for people with AL amyloidosis whose disease has come back or did not respond to at least one prior treatment.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07083154RecruitingPhase 3
Mazdutide for type 2 diabetes with early memory problems
This study tests a new medication, Mazdutide, to see if it can slow or improve memory and thinking problems in people with type 2 diabetes and early-stage cognitive impairment. It may help by targeting blood sugar control and possibly reducing the impact of diabetes on brain function.

Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07025122Enrolling by invitation
Fatigue in MS and its link to inflammation
This study looks at how fatigue in multiple sclerosis (MS) relates to signs of inflammation and nerve damage. It may help understand why fatigue happens and improve treatment.
Martin, SlovakiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07019259Recruiting
Light therapy for nerve pain in childhood cancer survivors
This study tests whether shining light on the feet and legs can help reduce nerve damage caused by chemotherapy in people who had cancer as children. If you have ongoing numbness, tingling, or pain in your hands or feet from past chemo, this trial may offer a gentle, drug-free treatment.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 5 years+ - NCT06992804RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Light therapy and lecanemab for mild Alzheimer's

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for light?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 270 recruiting light 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 light 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 light 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.
