Recruiting studies in Maryland
- NCT02692885Recruiting
Study body fat tissue to learn how it affects metabolism
This study looks at samples of body fat to understand what controls metabolism (how your body uses energy). You may be asked for a fat tissue sample during surgery or through a special biopsy scan, depending on your situation.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–90 - NCT06044935Recruiting
Nicotinamide riboside for fat burning and metabolism
This study tests whether a supplement called nicotinamide riboside (a form of vitamin B3) helps the body burn fat more efficiently during exercise. It may be a good option if you are overweight or have a specific type of diabetes (MODY2) and want to see if a natural supplement can boost your metabolism.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT05652478RecruitingPhase 2
Study how HIV medicines change metabolism in healthy adults
This Phase 2 study gives healthy adults specific HIV medicines to see how they affect early “metabolism” changes (how the body processes sugars, fats, and other blood markers). The goal is to understand these effects to improve safety and monitoring for people who may take these medicines in the future.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–55 - NCT01351545Recruiting
Cryopreserved cord blood access program for transplant patients
This trial studies an organized way to obtain and distribute unlicensed (not FDA-approved for general use) stored cord blood units that have been frozen and kept. It may help people who need a cord blood transplant but don’t fit the “licensed cord blood only” options.

What taking part in a metabolic disease study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there metabolic disease clinical trials in Maryland?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 28 recruiting metabolic disease studies with a site in Maryland, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a metabolic disease study in Maryland?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Maryland to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Maryland, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a metabolic disease trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New metabolic disease studies open in Maryland regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
