La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 9–18 - NCT06703450Enrolling by invitation
Liver fibrosis study with MRI for MASLD patients
This study is testing whether an MRI can help doctors see liver scarring (fibrosis) in people with MASLD, a type of fatty liver disease. It is for patients who already need a liver biopsy as part of their care, to compare the MRI results with the biopsy.
New York, New YorkAges 18–89 - NCT06048445Recruiting
Preventing bile duct issues after children's liver transplant
This trial tests placing a temporary drainage stent during liver transplant surgery in children to see if it helps prevent bile duct complications. It might improve recovery for young transplant recipients.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 1–6 - NCT06671275Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Testing CUD005 Injection for Advanced Liver Cirrhosis
This study tests an injection called CUD005 for people with advanced liver cirrhosis that is causing complications. The goal is to see if it is safe and can help improve liver function.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT06660095Enrolling by invitation
Measuring p50 during liver transplant surgery
This study is testing a new way to measure something called 'p50' during liver transplant surgery to see if it can help doctors better manage your care. It is for people who are having a planned liver transplant and are in relatively stable but serious health condition.
MalatyaAges 18–65 - NCT06084299RecruitingPhase 1
Immune cell therapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a new treatment using your own immune cells (tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes) to fight advanced liver cancer. It is for people whose cancer has progressed after at least two standard treatments and who have tumors that can be biopsied to grow these cells.
WuhanAges 18–70 - 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 - NCT06634186Enrolling by invitation
Fiber-rich diet for liver cirrhosis patients
This study tests whether eating more dietary fiber can improve outcomes for people with liver cirrhosis and high blood pressure in the liver (portal hypertension). If you have cirrhosis, adding fiber to your diet might help.
Hanover, Lower SaxonyAges 18 years+ - NCT06621472Recruiting
Comparing two nerve blocks for liver surgery pain
This study compares two types of pain-relieving injections (nerve blocks) used during liver surgery. One is a retrolaminar block and the other is a subcostal transversus abdominis plane block. The goal is to see which one provides better pain control after surgery.

Bile acid PET/CT scan for genetic liver disorders
This study uses a special PET/CT scan with a tracer called 11C-Csar, which is similar to bile acid, to see how well your liver handles bile. It is for healthy people and those with genetic liver diseases that cause cholestasis (slowed bile flow). The goal is to improve diagnosis and understanding of these conditions.

- 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.
