Recruiting studies
- NCT07028580Recruiting

Fermented beetle powder for alcohol-related liver problems
This trial tests whether a fermented powder made from a specific beetle can improve or protect the liver after alcohol-related liver injury. It’s looking for people with certain liver blood test levels, and it excludes several conditions and recent herbal or liver-affecting treatments.
Pusan, Ami-dongAges 19 years+ - NCT06888570Enrolling by invitation
Liver health study for children & young adults with Down syndrome
This study looks at how eating patterns and body composition relate to fatty liver in children and young adults with Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome) or other genetic intellectual disabilities. It may help understand who is at risk and how to prevent liver problems.
Madrid, MadridAges 5–22 - NCT06825559RecruitingPhase 1
Saroglitazar safety in moderate liver impairment from cholestatic disease
This trial tests how the body processes saroglitazar in people with moderate liver impairment caused by cholestatic liver disease. The goal is to ensure the drug is safe and dosed correctly for this group.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18–80 - NCT06741904Enrolling by invitation
Predicting liver disease worsening without invasive tests
This study looks at new, non-invasive methods to predict when chronic liver disease might get worse. It could help you and your doctor catch problems early without needing a biopsy or other invasive procedures.
Guangzhou, GuangzhouAges 18–80 - NCT06588699RecruitingPhase 2
Digoxin for NASH liver disease study
This trial tests if the heart medication digoxin can help people with NASH (fatty liver disease with inflammation), who have moderate liver scarring. You will receive digoxin or a placebo for 24 weeks and have a liver biopsy before and after treatment to see if the medication reduces liver damage.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18–75 - NCT05744713Enrolling by invitation
Study of adults with long-term liver disease using health records
This observational study looks at adults with chronic liver disease (including cirrhosis) to better understand how people are managed and how they feel over time. Because it does not change your treatment, it may help researchers improve care and patient support.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04106518Recruiting
Genetics study of alcohol-related liver disease and cirrhosis
This study looks at genetic differences in people with alcohol-related liver illness, including a recent jaundice episode (alcoholic hepatitis). By following people over time, it may help doctors better predict illness and understand why some people develop worse liver problems.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT03175471Recruiting
MRI study of blood-vessel and tissue signs in child liver disease
This trial uses MRI scans to look for “biomarkers,” which are measurable signs in the liver, to better understand autoimmune liver diseases in children and teens. It may help doctors track disease and improve care by finding imaging patterns linked to illness.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 6–23 - NCT03178630Recruiting
MRI scans to track outcomes in children with autoimmune liver disease
This study uses MRI scans to find “biomarkers,” or imaging clues, that may help predict how autoimmune liver conditions will progress in children and young adults. If you qualify, you may get MRI imaging to see whether it relates to future health outcomes.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 6–23 - NCT07070362Recruiting
Digital early warning system for lung injury after liver surgery
This trial tests a digital early warning system to detect acute lung injury after liver surgery. It may help doctors catch breathing problems early so they can treat them faster.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT02422238Recruiting
Study of fatty liver in adults, using MRI and stored samples
This study follows people with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease to better understand the condition. It uses an MRI scan and collects body samples to help researchers study changes over time.
Maastricht, LimburgAges 18–65 - NCT06939569Recruiting
Studying fatty liver disease in people with inflammatory bowel disease
This study looks at how common non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is in people with inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn's or colitis). Researchers want to learn more about the link between the two conditions.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT06944353Enrolling by invitation
Fatty liver risk screening in the emergency department
This study looks at fatty liver findings on emergency department scans. If you have fatty liver and were sent home from the ED, the study may help connect you to follow-up care and avoid future liver problems.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06291571Enrolling by invitation
Gut bacteria and body response in liver disease
This study looks at the bacteria in your gut (microbiome) and how your body responds to liver disease. Researchers want to learn if these factors can help improve care for people with liver problems.
AberdeenAges 18–70 - NCT03813862Recruiting
Study tracking medicines from clinic records
This is an observational study that collects information about what medicines patients receive. It uses data already recorded in participating clinics’ computer health records to better understand medication use over time.
Durham, North CarolinaAges birth+ - NCT07739914RecruitingPhase 3
Switching anti-rejection medicine after a liver transplant
This trial tests whether switching from a standard anti-rejection medicine to a different one (everolimus) about a year after a liver transplant can help protect your new liver with fewer side effects. If you qualify, you will be monitored closely for a few years to see how well the new medicine works for you.
Heidelberg, Baden-WurttembergAges 18–80 - NCT07561138Recruiting
Nutrition and Exercise Training Before Liver Transplant
This study tests whether eating better and doing gentle exercise before your liver transplant can help you stay healthier and recover better after surgery. You'll work with a nutrition expert and exercise specialist to prepare your body for transplant.
Athens, AtticaAges 18–70 - NCT07359742Recruiting
Detecting liver scarring in chronic liver disease
This trial looks for better ways to detect liver scarring (fibrosis) in people with long-term liver disease. It may help find problems earlier.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT06519162Recruiting
Liver-gut link study for liver disease patients and their families
This study looks at how gut bacteria differ in people with specific liver diseases and their household contacts. It may help researchers understand the connection between the liver and gut.
Daejeon, Jung-guAges 19 years+ - NCT05475015Recruiting
3D MRI scan to assess liver scarring and pressure
This study tests whether a special 3D MRI scan (3D-MRE) can measure liver scarring and the high pressure in the liver called portal hypertension. It may help your team use imaging to understand how severe your liver disease is, especially when a pressure test (HVPG) is being considered.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–75 - NCT07452744Enrolling by invitation
Picroliv for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
This study tests a plant-based medicine called Picroliv for people with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). It aims to see if it is safe and can reduce fat in the liver.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for liver diseases?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 423 recruiting liver diseases 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 liver diseases 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 liver diseases 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.
