Recruiting studies
- NCT07390422Recruiting

Blood filtering for severe liver failure with organ damage
This study tests a blood-filtering system called CytoSorb in people with severe liver failure that also affects other organs. It aims to see if removing toxins from the blood can help reduce damage and improve recovery.
Ancona, AnconaAges 18 years+ - NCT06838702Recruiting
Liver transplant bone health study
This study collects information from people getting a liver transplant. It looks at bone health and mineral levels in the body to better understand how they change after transplant.
Bologna, BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT07374185Recruiting
Bone marrow cells with Wharton gel for liver cirrhosis
This trial tests whether your own bone marrow cells, combined with a special gel from donated umbilical cords (Wharton's jelly exosomes), can help repair your liver. Researchers hope to improve liver function in people with cirrhosis.

Liver Transplant and the 30-Second Sit-to-Stand Test
This study looks at how well people waiting for a liver transplant can do a simple 30-second test of standing up and sitting down. The goal is to see if this test can help doctors understand your physical strength before surgery.
MalatyaAges 18–65 - NCT07365527Recruiting
Ultrasound and Tumor Response in Colorectal Liver Metastases
This study is testing a new way to use ultrasound to help treat colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. It may help doctors see how tumors respond to treatment.
CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT04964310Recruiting
Testing genetic risk for acetaminophen-related liver injury
This study looks at whether certain genes can predict who is more likely to get liver injury after taking acetaminophen (also found in some cold/flu medicines). By comparing people who were affected with people who were not, it may help doctors identify higher-risk patients in the future.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 14 years+ - NCT05098847RecruitingPhase 2
Freezing liver tumors plus anti-cancer drugs for spread cancer
This trial tests whether freezing (cryoablation) liver metastases works better when combined with immunotherapy (sintilimab) and a targeted pill (lenvatinib). It’s for people whose cancer has spread to the liver and has not responded to earlier treatments.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05057052RecruitingPhase 2
Freezing liver tumors with immunotherapy and a pill drug
This Phase 2 trial tests whether freezing (cryoablation) plus sintilimab (an immune system medicine) and regorafenib (a pill) can shrink colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. It is for people whose cancer has come back or progressed after at least two prior chemotherapy treatments.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07356531Recruiting
Thermosensitive Embolic Agent for Liver Cancer TACE
This trial tests a new heat-sensitive embolic agent used during TACE (a procedure that blocks blood flow to tumors and delivers chemotherapy directly to the liver) for primary liver cancer. It aims to see if the agent is safe and effective for patients who need TACE treatment.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–80 - NCT06857331Recruiting
Numbing block for pain after liver transplant
This trial tests a special numbing injection (erector spinae plane block) to help control pain after liver transplant surgery. It may be a good option if you have severe liver disease and need a transplant.
KyivAges Any age - NCT06857773RecruitingPhase 3
Combined pump therapy and chemo for liver-only colorectal cancer
This trial tests a treatment approach where you receive chemotherapy directly into your liver through a surgically placed pump, combined with standard systemic chemotherapy (given through a vein). The goal is to shrink liver tumors enough so they can be removed later with surgery. It is for people whose colorectal cancer has spread only to the liver and has not been treated before.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT03535142Recruiting
Fatty liver in people considering bariatric surgery
This study looks at how fatty liver disease may predict future liver health in people with severe weight gain. It compares people who are planning bariatric (weight-loss) surgery with similar people who are not, to better understand who may be at higher risk.
EsbjergAges 18 years+ - NCT07329036Recruiting
Liver support therapy for acute liver failure
This trial tests two different blood-filtering treatments for people with severe liver failure who are waiting for or unable to receive a liver transplant. It aims to see how these treatments affect blood clotting, inflammation, and organ function.
PragueAges 18–75 - NCT07325526RecruitingPhase 2
Testing an experimental drug for liver cirrhosis caused by MASH
This study tests an investigational medicine (BI 3802876) in people with early-stage liver cirrhosis due to MASH. The goal is to see if it is well tolerated and potentially helpful.
Chandler, ArizonaAges 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+ - NCT07325565Recruiting
Emotional health and immunotherapy for liver cancer
This trial studies how emotional well-being affects how well immunotherapy works for liver cancer. It is for people newly diagnosed with liver cancer who have not yet been treated.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT06866496Recruiting

Testing a tailored radiation dose plan for liver tumors
This study compares a standard radiation dose plan versus a plan that adjusts the dose based on how the tumor responds to radiation-related measurements. It aims to improve how well stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) treats liver cancer while keeping side effects manageable.
London, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06873165Recruiting
Gut bacteria treatment for fatty liver disease
This study tests whether a specially designed gut bacteria treatment can help people with fatty liver disease and related health issues like high blood sugar, high cholesterol, or high blood pressure. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and improves liver health.

This trial tests whether adding a drug called angiotensin II (which tightens blood vessels in healthy tissue) during radioembolization can deliver more radiation directly to liver tumors. It is for people who have liver tumors (either primary or that have spread to the liver) and are scheduled for radioembolization.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for liver?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,219 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.
