Smart diets for kids with fatty liver disease
This study compares different diet plans to see which works best to reduce fat in the liver of children and teens with MASLD (a type of fatty liver disease). If your child drinks sugary beverages often and has certain health risks like being overweight or having high cholesterol, this trial may help find a healthy eating plan that works.
Grand Rapids, MichiganAges 11–17 - NCT06968234Recruiting
Liver disease breath test study
This study uses a special breath test to learn about chronic liver disease. If you have liver disease or cirrhosis, you may be able to help by providing a breath sample.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06293235Recruiting
Studying fertility, fathering, and fatherhood
This study looks at factors that affect fertility in couples trying to conceive, as well as in couples who are already expecting. It will help researchers understand what helps or hinders becoming a father.

Ljubljana, SloveniaAges 18–65 - NCT07317921Recruiting
Validating body measurements to predict muscle health in young adults
This study tests whether simple body measurements can accurately predict muscle health in healthy young adults. It may help develop easier ways to assess muscle function without complex equipment.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–35 - NCT07672691Recruiting
How diet affects gut health and inflammation

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for metabolism?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,077 recruiting metabolism 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 metabolism 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 metabolism 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.
