This study looks at how well doctors can detect small, early liver cancer and then follow how it changes over time. It may help your care team choose the best next steps based on earlier, clearer detection.
Oxford, OxfordshireAges 18–100 - NCT05541601Recruiting
Study to detect liver cancer early in people with cirrhosis
This study follows people with cirrhosis to see how best to detect liver cancer early. If you qualify, you may receive regular monitoring that could help find liver cancer sooner, when treatment is more likely to work.
Oxford, OxfordshireAges 18–100 - NCT05546086Recruiting
Beijing health study for adults who live in Beijing
This study collects health information from adults (18+) who are permanent residents of Beijing. It aims to learn patterns about health in the local population and how different factors may affect outcomes over time.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT05556642Recruiting
Liver tumor registry for children with relapsed cancer
This study collects information and may collect fresh tumor tissue to better understand and model relapsed or hard-to-treat liver tumors. Joining could help researchers develop future treatments and more personalized research for affected patients.
Cincinnati, OhioAges Any age - NCT05597709Recruiting
Study diabetes patients to measure MAFLD in Jiangsu
This study checks how common a condition called MAFLD is among people with type 2 diabetes in Jiangsu, China. It may help doctors understand how often this liver-related problem occurs and guide future care for people with type 2 diabetes.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT05618626Recruiting
Lifestyle program to prevent fatty liver and heart disease
This trial tests whether a structured lifestyle program—focused on healthy living and resistance exercise—can help prevent fatty liver disease and heart-related problems. It may be helpful if you have early or mild fatty liver changes or risk factors, even if you also have gallstones.
Molina, Maule RegionAges 45–60 - NCT05625750Recruiting
Study of people diagnosed with fatty liver from not-too-much alcohol
This is an observational study for people diagnosed with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (fatty buildup in the liver not mainly caused by heavy drinking). It may help researchers better understand this condition, especially how it shows up on tests and how people report relevant health information.
Changsha, HunanAges 18–75 - NCT05638269Recruiting
Study of gut bacteria in people with serious long-term illness
This study looks at the types of gut bacteria in people living in certain parts of China who have serious long-term (chronic) illnesses. The goal is to better understand how gut bacteria differ and may help doctors in the future tailor care.
Chaoyang, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05661461RecruitingPhase 1
Test drug dosing and safety for advanced cancers with liver issues
This Phase 1 study tests different doses of nab-sirolimus to see if it is safe and how the body processes it. It is for people with advanced or metastatic solid tumors who also have moderate liver impairment.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05667805RecruitingPhase 4
Testing blood clotting in people with liver cirrhosis
This Phase 4 study looks at how clotting measurements relate to bleeding risk in people with liver cirrhosis who need a planned liver procedure. The study may help doctors understand what coagulation results mean when doing these procedures safely.
ViennaAges 18 years+ - NCT05677971RecruitingPhase 3
Tested medicine to treat liver scarring in PiZZ alpha-1 disease
This Phase 3 study tests fazirsiran for safety and whether it can help people with a specific genetic form of alpha-1 antitrypsin–related liver disease that causes liver scarring. You may be eligible if you have the PiZZ genetic type and moderate-to-severe fibrosis, with certain lung and liver conditions ruled out.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–75 - NCT05690048RecruitingPhase 2
Fecal transplant to help liver cancer respond to standard drugs
This trial studies whether a fecal microbiota transfer (a “gut bacteria transfer” from a donor) can help liver cancer patients overcome resistance to atezolizumab and bevacizumab. It aims to improve how well the standard medicines control the cancer.
Heidelberg, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT05692024RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Coffee and gut bacteria study after colon or rectal cancer
This early-phase study tests whether a coffee-related approach can change gut bacteria and blood “metabolites” after treatment for stage I–III colon or rectal cancer. The goal is to learn if these changes could help improve health after standard cancer treatment.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05705219Recruiting
3D ultrasound scan to guide treatment decisions in liver cancer
This study tests whether a special 3D ultrasound scan (using contrast) can help support decisions for people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. If you have planned new cancer treatment, the scan may add information to help doctors guide care.

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.
