Recruiting studies in Ohio
- NCT07165028RecruitingPhase 3
Study of new drugs for fatty liver with scarring
This trial tests new medicines for adults with fatty liver disease (MASLD) that has already caused some liver scarring. It aims to see if these drugs can help prevent the liver disease from getting worse.
Akron, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07288138RecruitingPhase 2
Study of a New Drug for MASH (Fatty Liver Disease)
This study is testing a new drug that targets thyroid hormone receptors in the liver, alone or combined with another drug, to reduce inflammation and scarring in people with MASH (a type of fatty liver disease). If you have MASH with moderate liver scarring and are otherwise healthy, this trial may help find a new treatment option.
Akron, OhioAges 18–75 - NCT06986447Enrolling by invitation
Non-invasive tests for serious liver disease
This study is testing whether advanced imaging and other non-invasive methods can properly identify people with significant liver scarring due to metabolic liver disease or alcohol-related liver disease. It may help find better ways to track liver health without repeated needle biopsies.
Westlake, OhioAges 18–80 - NCT06318169RecruitingPhase 3
Testing pegozafermin for MASH and liver fibrosis
This trial tests an experimental drug called pegozafermin to see if it can help people with MASH (a fatty liver disease) and liver scarring (fibrosis). It's for people who have moderate-to-advanced scarring but not cirrhosis, and who have not had other serious liver conditions or poorly controlled diabetes.
Akron, OhioAges 18–80 - NCT06374875RecruitingPhase 4
Does metabolic surgery reduce liver scarring?
This study tests if weight loss surgery can improve liver fibrosis (scarring) in people with obesity and advanced liver disease. It may help those considering surgery to know if their liver health can get better.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–75 - NCT07192159Recruiting
Ultrasound vs MRI for measuring liver fat in MASLD
This study compares ultrasound (DeepUSFF) and MRI (MRI-PDFF) for measuring liver fat in people with MASLD (a type of fatty liver disease not caused by alcohol). It aims to see if ultrasound can be used as a cheaper, more accessible alternative to MRI.

What taking part in a metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver 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 dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease clinical trials in Ohio?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 6 recruiting metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease studies with a site in Ohio, 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 dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease study in Ohio?
- 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 Ohio to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Ohio, 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 dysfunction-associated steatotic liver 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.
