Registry study for first-time SIR-Spheres in liver tumors
This is an observational (real-world) study that follows people with certain unresectable liver tumors who are getting SIR-Spheres for the first time. It helps doctors understand how this treatment is used in routine care and what outcomes patients experience.
Clichy, CedexAges 18 years+ - NCT06215404Recruiting
Fluid management during liver transplant for less blood loss
This trial tests different ways of managing fluids during liver transplant surgery to see if it can reduce blood loss. It may be helpful for patients with end-stage liver disease who are waiting for a transplant.
TaipeiAges 18–75 - NCT06344442RecruitingPhase 3
Low-dose vasopressin for kidney protection after liver transplant
This trial tests whether giving a low dose of a hormone called vasopressin after a liver transplant can help prevent kidney injury. It's for adults scheduled for a planned liver transplant.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT06183892Recruiting
Extended-release tacrolimus in stable child liver transplant recipients
This study tests an extended-release version of the anti-rejection drug tacrolimus in children who have already had a stable liver transplant. The goal is to see if the longer-acting capsule works as well as the immediate-release form, potentially simplifying daily medication routines.
ShanghaiAges 6 months–18 years - NCT06130046Recruiting
Study of MR-proADM as a biomarker for kidney and liver transplant
This trial is testing a simple blood biomarker called MR-proADM to see if it can help doctors detect early signs of transplant rejection or poor kidney function after a kidney or liver transplant.
RomeAges 18–70 - NCT07021534RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-NK and CAR-T cells for cancer with liver spread
This trial tests a new treatment that uses special immune cells (CAR-NK and CAR-T cells) given directly into the liver artery, then through a vein, to fight advanced solid tumors that have spread to the liver. It is for people who have already tried standard treatments and need new options.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT07399236Recruiting
AI prediction of liver spread in colorectal cancer
This study looks at whether an AI tool can predict if colorectal cancer will spread to the liver. The researchers will review past medical records of patients who had surgery to remove their cancer and had no signs of spread at that time.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT07437755Recruiting
Guiding blood transfusions during procedures for cirrhosis
This study compares a special blood test (thrombelastometry) to standard tests to decide when to give blood products before invasive procedures in people with advanced liver cirrhosis. The goal is to see which method leads to better use of blood products and fewer complications.
Iași, IaşiAges 18 years+ - NCT07400289Recruiting
Testing a single-probe liver exam for chronic disease
This study is testing a new way to use a FibroScan (a non-invasive liver scanner) with a single probe to measure liver health in people with chronic liver disease. If you have a long-term liver condition, this trial may help improve how liver exams are done.

This trial tests a drug called foscenvivint for people with hemophilia and liver cirrhosis caused by both HIV and hepatitis C (already treated). The study aims to see if it can help improve liver health.
Sapporo, HokkaidoAges 18–79 - NCT05477277Recruiting
MRI testing during liver transplant evaluation
This study looks at whether having an MRI scan during liver transplant planning helps predict who may have worse outcomes or higher risk of death. It focuses on adults with severe liver disease who are already being considered for a transplant.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06519331Recruiting

Pump chemotherapy plus standard chemo for liver-only colorectal spread
This study tests adding a chemotherapy “pump” directly into the liver along with standard chemotherapy, compared with standard chemotherapy alone. It’s for adults with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver but cannot be surgically removed, and who are responding to first chemotherapy.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07670611RecruitingPhase 4
Vitamin D2 alone or with calcitriol for children with liver disease

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.
