Testing a Health Risk Prevention Platform for Adults
This study tests a digital platform called STELA that helps adults reduce their risk of heart disease and stroke by identifying and managing modifiable health factors like diet, exercise, and stress. You'll complete health assessments online to see if this preventive approach works.
Třinec, Moravian-Silesian RegionAges 18–80 - NCT07209527Enrolling by invitationEarly Phase 1
Truway diagnostic tools in primary care
This trial tests new diagnostic tools that doctors can use in primary care. Researchers want to see if these tools help find the right diagnosis faster and more accurately.
New York, New YorkAges Any age - NCT06826807Enrolling by invitation
Lifestyle change study for fatty liver disease
This study tests whether adding a liver stiffness measurement to a lifestyle program helps people with MASLD (a type of fatty liver disease) improve their liver health. It is designed for people who have fatty liver and at least one sign of metabolic syndrome, like high blood pressure or diabetes.
Bangkoknoi, BangkokAges 18–80 - NCT06722443Enrolling by invitation
Probiotics and Prebiotics for Obesity
This trial tests whether adding probiotics and prebiotics to your diet can help with obesity and related health problems like prediabetes, diabetes, high cholesterol, or high blood pressure.
Granada, SpainAges 18–75 - NCT06710314Enrolling by invitation
Metabolic syndrome and recovery after colorectal cancer surgery
This trial studies how metabolic syndrome (a mix of high blood pressure, diabetes, and other factors) changes after colorectal cancer surgery. It aims to understand why some people's metabolic syndrome gets better after their tumor is removed, which could lead to better treatments.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06334666Enrolling by invitation
Step counting for fatty liver disease management
This trial tests if using a pedometer to track daily steps can help people with a type of fatty liver disease (called MASLD) become more active and improve their health. It may be a good fit if you are not already very active and want to try a simple way to manage your condition.
Bangkoknoi, BangkokAges 18 years+ - NCT05799768Enrolling by invitation
Ketogenic diet for rheumatoid arthritis symptoms and inflammation
This study tests whether a very low-carbohydrate, ketogenic diet can improve rheumatoid arthritis (RA). It’s designed for people whose RA treatment is already stable and who are not currently using a keto diet or certain medicines.
Oklahoma City, OklahomaAges 18–65 - NCT04841057Enrolling by invitation
Study of blood and stool changes after weight-loss surgery
This study looks at how your body’s metabolism changes after a specific weight-loss surgery (gastric bypass). It may help researchers better understand what to expect and how to tailor care, while requiring blood draws and stool samples before and after surgery.

Study angiotensin medicine to improve metabolism in obesity
This Phase 1 study tests how a medication that affects the body’s angiotensin system (angiotensin-(1-7)) changes metabolism in adults with obesity, insulin resistance, and high blood pressure. It may help researchers understand whether this approach can improve blood sugar/insulin function and related body changes.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for metabolic syndrome?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 227 recruiting metabolic syndrome 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 metabolic syndrome 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 metabolic syndrome 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.
