Recruiting studies
- NCT07778459Recruiting
Liver transplant study for people with HIV
This study tests whether it's safe and effective for people with HIV to receive a liver transplant from a donor who also has HIV. It aims to expand access to transplants for people with HIV.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07611721Recruiting
Testing a glucose monitor in critically ill surgery patients

PragueAges 18 years+ - NCT06088758Recruiting
Preserving fatty livers with a machine for transplant
This study tests a new way to preserve donated livers that have extra fat (steatotic livers) using a special machine that keeps the liver healthy outside the body. If successful, it could allow more livers to be used for transplantation, helping people on the waiting list get a transplant sooner.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–80 - NCT06342557Recruiting
App-Based Health Diary for Young Liver Transplant Patients
This study uses an app (ePRO Diary) to track your health after a liver transplant or while waiting for one. It’s designed for young people between 14 and 20 years old who are moving from pediatric to adult care.
Bergamo, MILANOAges 14–20 - NCT06327308RecruitingPhase 1
MRI study for heart health in liver transplant candidates
This study uses a special heart MRI to check for a heart condition called cirrhotic cardiomyopathy in people waiting for a liver transplant. The results may help doctors better understand and treat heart problems in patients with cirrhosis.
BesançonAges 18–70 - NCT07480057Recruiting
Bone health changes after liver transplant
This study tracks how liver transplantation affects your bone density and mineral metabolism. It aims to find changes early, which can help prevent fractures later.
New Delhi, National Capital Territory of DelhiAges 18 years+ - NCT05717842Recruiting
Kidney and liver transplant candidates get a scan at surgery
This trial studies whether a specific scan taken around the time of a combined liver-and-kidney transplant can help doctors assess the kidney(s) that will be used. You might be eligible if you are already listed for both transplants and can safely complete the scan.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT06353126RecruitingPhase 4
Chemoembolization before liver transplant for liver cancer
This trial tests whether using chemotherapy beads delivered directly to the liver (DEB-TACE) before a living donor liver transplant improves outcomes for people with liver cancer. If you have a tumor in the right side of the liver that fits certain size and number limits, and you are already scheduled for a transplant, this study may be an option.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT07268196Recruiting
How a liver transplant affects sexual function
This study looks at how a liver transplant affects a person's sex life and sexual function. It includes married men who either are waiting for a transplant or have already had one with a healthy working liver.
New Delhi, National Capital Territory of DelhiAges 18–60 - NCT07549503RecruitingPhase 2
Liver Transplant Immune Changes Study
This research study tracks early signs of immune system changes in children who received a liver transplant 3–7 years ago and are doing well. By studying blood and liver samples, researchers hope to better understand how to prevent rejection and improve long-term transplant survival.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 3–13 - NCT05727722RecruitingPhase 1
Micro-packaged liver cell transplant for adult liver failure
This Phase 1 study tests a new way to place liver cells (in small protective “micro-packages”) inside the belly to treat liver failure. It aims to see whether the treatment is safe and potentially helps liver function in adults with worsening chronic or acute-on-chronic liver failure.
ShanghaiAges 18–65 - NCT03627013RecruitingPhase 3
Compare two transplant fluid solutions for kidney, liver, pancreas
This Phase 3 study compares two types of transplant fluid (Custodiol-N vs Custodiol) to protect organs while they are stored before surgery. It may help by reducing damage to the kidney, liver, or pancreas during transplant preparation.
GrazAges 18 years+ - NCT07028112Recruiting
Iron and liver health after stem cell transplant
This study looks at how too much iron in the body (from past transfusions) affects the liver in people who had a stem cell transplant at least 10 years ago. It will help doctors understand who needs special monitoring for liver problems.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT06911619Recruiting
Nutrition support for liver transplant patients
This study tests whether nutritional support can help reduce frailty in patients waiting for a liver transplant. It aims to improve strength and overall health before surgery.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT07086989Recruiting
Heart health study for kids with chronic conditions
This study looks at heart disease risk in children and young adults (ages 6-25) with long-term health conditions like certain heart, kidney, or diabetes disorders. The goal is to better understand and manage heart risks early.
BudapestAges 6–25 - NCT07111221Recruiting
Reducing bleeding risk before liver transplant
This trial tests a procedure to lower blood loss during liver transplant for patients with high blood pressure in the liver. It may help those who have had a previous transplant, abdominal surgery, or certain complications of liver disease.
WarsawAges 18 years+ - NCT06367244Recruiting
Wellness Program for Transplant Wait-List Patients

Liver transplant from donors with HIV for people with HIV
This study tests whether giving people with HIV a liver from an HIV-positive donor is safe and works well. It looks at infections, cancer risks, and long-term health after transplant.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06922669Recruiting
Steroids for drug-induced liver injury with high bilirubin
This trial tests whether steroids (glucocorticoids) can help people with acute liver injury caused by a drug, especially when bilirubin levels are high. It aims to see if steroids can reduce liver damage and improve recovery.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–80 - NCT05146336Recruiting
CytoSorb registry for critically ill patients needing blood treatment
This registry collects information about critically ill patients who receive the CytoSorb 300 mL blood treatment. It may help doctors better understand when the treatment works best and when it should not be used.
KlagenfurtAges Any age - NCT02863250Recruiting

- How do I know if I qualify for a liver transplant 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 transplant 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.
