Charleston, West VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05698459RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a virus treatment delivered into liver arteries
This Phase 1 study tests an oncolytic (tumor-attacking) virus given directly into liver arteries using a catheter. It’s for people with advanced liver cancer who have already tried standard treatments or can’t have them, aiming to assess safety and early anti-cancer activity.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT06639828RecruitingPhase 4
Safety study of Sonazoid for liver ultrasound in children
This trial tests a contrast agent called Sonazoid, which is used during an ultrasound to get clearer pictures of the liver. It is for children and teens who have one or more spots in the liver that need to be checked. The goal is to see if Sonazoid is safe and works well for children.
MünchenAges Up to 18 years - NCT07027605Recruiting
Testing a computer tool for colorectal liver metastasis prognosis
This trial is testing a computer program that helps doctors predict outcomes for people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. It is for patients who have had surgery to remove both the colon and liver tumors.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - 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.
Chandigarh, ChandigarhAges 18–60 - NCT05680246Recruiting
Study of long-term outcomes after special donor-liver preservation
This study looks at how well people do in the long run after liver transplant using donor livers that were preserved in a specific machine called DHOPE for more than 4 hours. It may help doctors understand whether this preservation method leads to better transplant outcomes over time.
GroningenAges 18 years+ - NCT06787183RecruitingPhase 2
Short-course radiation with chemoimmunotherapy for rectal cancer that has spread to the liver
This trial tests whether combining short-course radiation with a chemotherapy regimen (CAPOX) and an immunotherapy drug (QL1706) can help treat rectal cancer that has spread to the liver. It is designed for patients who have not had any prior cancer treatment.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT07330830Recruiting
Genetics and fatty liver disease in Caribbean and Indian Ocean populations
This study looks at how a specific gene (PNPLA3) might affect non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (MASLD) in people from Guadeloupe, French Guiana, and Réunion Island. It aims to understand genetic differences that could explain why some people get the disease.
CayenneAges 18 years+ - NCT07392567Recruiting
AI predicts liver spread in colorectal cancer
This study tests whether an artificial intelligence (AI) model can predict if colon or rectal cancer will spread to the liver. You will have a CT scan before surgery, and the AI will analyze the scan to see if it can forecast future liver metastasis.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT06798948RecruitingPhase 2
Can a mix of herbs improve mild fatty liver?
This study is testing if a combination of four herbs (artichoke, milk thistle, turmeric, and licorice root) can help people with non-alcoholic mild to moderate fatty liver disease (also called metabolic-associated fatty liver disease). It's a randomized trial, meaning participants are assigned to either the herbal mix or a comparison group. This may offer a natural option to support liver health.
Hangzhou, Select...Ages 18–65 - NCT02886104Recruiting
Surgery versus local ablation for certain liver metastases
This trial compares two ways to treat colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver: removing liver tumors with surgery versus destroying them in place with local ablation. It may help doctors learn which approach works best for people whose disease can be fully treated and who have enough healthy liver left.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT04491929Recruiting
Radiation treatment for colon cancer in the liver using tiny beads
This trial studies a targeted liver radiation procedure that uses tiny radioactive beads to treat colon cancer spread mostly in the liver. It may help people whose liver tumors cannot be removed or treated with other common local treatments, but it has several safety and “screening” checks.
Aarhus N, DanmarkAges 18 years+ - NCT07272928Recruiting
Comparing surgery order for liver spread from colon cancer
This trial looks at whether removing the colon tumor or the liver tumors first affects recovery in patients having both removed at the same time. It helps doctors decide the best surgical approach.
Alessandria, PiedmontAges 18 years+ - NCT04357600Enrolling by invitationPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cell treatment for hepatitis B–related cirrhosis
This early-stage trial tests umbilical cord “mesenchymal” stem cells in people with liver scarring (cirrhosis) that is caused by hepatitis B. It may help improve liver function and related complications, but it is mainly designed to check safety and how well the treatment works.
Jakarta, DKI JakartaAges 18–65 - NCT06953830Enrolling by invitation

Columbia, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05761483Recruiting
Endoscopic treatment for bile duct narrowing after liver transplant
This trial tests an endoscopic (camera-based) approach to treat bile duct narrowing that happens after a liver transplant. It may help improve bile flow and liver blood test results when the narrowing is in the bile duct area near where the liver’s bile ducts split.
Roma, RMAges 18 years+ - NCT05763446Recruiting
Predicting heavy blood transfusion during liver transplant
This study looks for factors that can predict when a person might need a very large blood transfusion during a liver transplant. The results may help the transplant team prepare sooner and better manage transfusions during surgery.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for liver?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,253 recruiting liver 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 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 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.
