Recruiting studies
- NCT06612411RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing a probiotic for diarrhea-predominant IBS

Balancing sex hormones to improve metabolism and fertility in Klinefelter
This study tests whether adjusting sex-hormone levels can improve body metabolism and reproductive hormone balance in people with Klinefelter syndrome. Depending on the design, you may be looking at fertility preservation and/or metabolic health.
LausanneAges 16–65 - NCT07170527Recruiting
Metabolic signs, recovery, and physical function after ICU stay
This study looks at whether certain molecules in the blood (metabolic signatures) are linked to how well people recover physically after a serious illness requiring intensive care. By understanding these links, doctors might be able to better predict and support recovery.
Ede, GelderlandAges 18 years+ - NCT03016806Recruiting

Rochester, New YorkAges 2 months–75 years - NCT01143454Recruiting
Study unusual heart conditions and related genetic traits
This study looks at people with unusual or rare heart problems, or people with a family history of these issues. Doctors and researchers may collect and study your blood or tissue (and possibly store samples) to learn what causes the condition and how it may affect the heart.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 1–100 - NCT02602769Recruiting
Testing blood traits in children with ROHHAD syndrome
This trial studies children with ROHHAD syndrome to better understand their body chemistry and other blood features. The results may help researchers learn what drives the condition and how it might be tracked over time.
Boston, New YorkAges 2–20 - NCT06533007Enrolling by invitation
How PDE3B affects metabolism in healthy adults
This study looks at how a protein called PDE3B affects your body's metabolism (how it uses energy). It may help researchers understand weight and insulin resistance better, which could lead to new treatments.
CambridgeAges 21–75 - NCT06336369Recruiting
Brown fat activity in Gilbert's syndrome
This study looks at brown fat activity in people with Gilbert's syndrome, a harmless condition that causes slightly high bilirubin levels. It compares them to people without the condition to see if the extra bilirubin affects brown fat, which may help with weight and metabolism.
ViennaAges 18–65 - NCT06642363RecruitingPhase 1
Astaxanthin for PCOS symptoms and heart health
This trial tests if astaxanthin, a natural antioxidant, can improve PCOS symptoms and heart-related health in women with PCOS who are overweight but not pregnant or breastfeeding.
Isfahan, IsfahanAges 18–45 - NCT07571915Recruiting
Quality of Life and Metabolism Study for PCOS and Obesity
This study looks at how PCOS (a hormonal condition affecting the ovaries) and obesity affect your quality of life and metabolism. You'll help researchers understand these connections and potentially inform better treatments.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–49 - NCT07516496Recruiting
Understanding Body Chemistry in Vascular Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome
This study looks at how bodies with vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (vEDS) process nutrients and energy differently. By comparing people with vEDS to healthy volunteers, researchers hope to find new ways to manage the condition better.
CambridgeAges 18–85 - NCT07773272Recruiting
Combined heart, kidney, and metabolic care after a heart attack
This study tests a new approach to managing heart, kidney, and metabolic health together after a heart attack or unstable angina. It aims to improve your recovery and reduce future risks.
Heerlen, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT07106996RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Red yeast rice for PCOS inflammation
This study tests if a natural supplement called red yeast rice can help reduce long-term inflammation in women with PCOS by improving how gut bacteria work. If you have PCOS and are not pregnant or using certain medications, you might be able to join.
Lishui, ZhejiangAges 18–40 - NCT07298564Recruiting
Magnesium and levocarnitine for PCOS symptoms
This trial tests whether taking magnesium and levocarnitine (a natural substance that helps cells make energy) can improve metabolism and reduce symptoms like irregular periods or weight gain in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). If you have PCOS, you may be able to join.
Tehran, Tehran ProvinceAges 19–65 - NCT07747909Recruiting
Orlistat for metabolic and hormonal health in PCOS
This study tests whether the weight-loss drug orlistat can improve blood sugar, hormones, and other metabolic measures in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). If you have PCOS and are overweight, this treatment might help with symptoms like irregular periods and excess hair growth.
Abbottābād, Khyber PakhtunkhwaAges 18–45 - NCT06538714Recruiting
Interval training for overweight or obese girls
This study tests whether a special type of exercise (interval training) can improve heart and metabolic health in girls aged 12 to 15 who are overweight or obese. It may help you understand a new way to get and stay healthy.

Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07136844Recruiting
Walking and arm movement study for nerve and muscle conditions
This study uses motion analysis to understand walking and arm function in adults with certain neurological or metabolic diseases. The goal is to find patterns that help doctors better manage these conditions.
LiègeAges 18 years+ - NCT04802707RecruitingPhase 2
Study drug for mitochondrial depletion disorder due to gene changes
This Phase 2 trial tests a treatment made from deoxynucleosides to help people with mitochondrial depletion disorder caused by certain gene changes. If you match the genetic diagnosis, the study may see whether the treatment improves symptoms or disease markers.

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.
