Recruiting studies
- NCT05974995Recruiting
Robotic or standard surgery for early uterine cancer in obesity
This trial compares robotic-assisted surgery versus standard laparoscopic surgery for people with early-stage uterine (endometrial) cancer and a BMI of 30 or higher. The goal is to see which approach is safer and works better for this group.
RomeAges 18–75 - NCT05987631Recruiting
Predicting weight loss and health after weight loss surgery
This study looks at why some people lose more weight and improve their health more than others after bariatric surgery. It also has a subgroup that specifically studies people who are insulin resistant (a sign of prediabetes) to see how surgery affects their metabolism.
Gouda, South HollandAges 18–75 - NCT05991453Recruiting
Recovery after IV vs. inhaled anesthesia for non-cardiac surgery
This trial compares recovery after two types of general anesthesia: one given through an IV (propofol) and one inhaled as a gas. It aims to see which approach leads to a smoother recovery for people having non-cardiac surgery.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06004115RecruitingPhase 4
Brain scanning study for depression and anxiety
This study uses brain scans (fMRI) to understand how people with both depression and anxiety respond to threat. If you have either or both conditions, participating could help researchers find better treatments.
Tulsa, OklahomaAges 18–65 - NCT06015620Recruiting
Health changes after mini gastric bypass surgery
This study looks at how mini gastric bypass surgery helps with obesity-related health problems and changes in body composition. It aims to see if patients experience improvements in conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure.
Bhubaneswar, OdishaAges 18–65 - NCT06057597Recruiting
Comparing two types of gastric bypass surgery for weight loss
This trial compares a new version of gastric bypass (with a longer 150cm bypassed segment) to the standard Roux-en-Y gastric bypass to see which leads to better weight loss and health improvements. It is for people with severe obesity who are already scheduled for surgery and want to help find the best procedure.
ParisAges 18–65 - NCT06065215Recruiting
Early-life MRI to Predict Breathing Problems in Extremely Preterm Infants
This study uses an MRI scan to look at how the lungs develop in babies born very early (before 29 weeks of pregnancy). The goal is to see if early MRI images can help predict future breathing problems, so doctors can better support these infants.
Ottawa, OntarioAges 8 months–1.8 years - NCT06081075Recruiting
Newborn Genomics Program for Sick Infants
This study looks at using rapid DNA testing (genomics) in newborns and children who are very sick in the hospital (NICU or PICU). The goal is to see if finding a genetic cause early can help guide treatment and improve outcomes.
AucklandAges birth–2 years - NCT06087224Recruiting
Telemedicine for newborn emergencies
This study tests if a telemedicine system helps community hospital teams care for newborns who need advanced help right after birth. It may improve care for premature babies or those needing breathing or chest support.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges birth+ - NCT06118606Recruiting
Team program for ICU survivors at risk of problems
This study tests a team-based program to help ICU survivors who are at risk for physical or emotional problems after their stay. The goal is to see if this extra support can improve recovery.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT06132477RecruitingPhase 4
Study of GLP-1 medicines after weight loss surgery
This study looks at what happens when people taking a GLP-1 medication (like Ozempic) either stop or continue it after weight loss surgery. The goal is to learn whether staying on the medicine helps with long-term weight control.
Columbia, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06145724Recruiting
Reducing maternal sepsis complications in New York City hospitals
This study looks at hospital records to find ways to reduce serious infections (sepsis) in mothers after childbirth. It aims to improve care and save lives.
New York, New YorkAges Any age - NCT06200961Recruiting
Trans-nasal endoscopy for bariatric patients
This study tests a thinner, more comfortable endoscope that goes through the nose instead of the mouth for patients who need an upper GI exam. It may be a gentler option for weight-loss surgery patients.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–90 - NCT06226194Recruiting
Genes and weight loss after bariatric surgery
This study looks at how your genes might affect how much weight you lose after gastric sleeve or gastric bypass surgery. You may be able to help doctors better predict weight loss results for future patients.
Lleida, LeidaAges 18–65 - NCT06247449Recruiting
MRI screening for brain metastases in aggressive breast cancer
This trial uses an MRI scan to look for early signs of breast cancer spreading to the brain in people with certain aggressive breast cancer types (triple-negative or HER2-positive) that are stage IIb or III. The goal is to find and treat brain metastases earlier, before they cause symptoms.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06256406Recruiting
Comfort, kangaroo care, and music therapy for NICU newborns
This trial tests whether a comfortable environment, kangaroo care (skin-to-skin contact), and music therapy can help newborns in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). It aims to see if these gentle approaches improve their well-being.
Catania, SicilyAges birth–3 years - NCT06264427Recruiting
Study of metabolism issues in Greenland
This study looks at the genes and physical traits of people in Greenland with type 2 diabetes or severe obesity. It aims to better understand these conditions to improve care.
Nuuk, SermersooqAges 18 years+ - NCT06267508Recruiting
HIV testing and treatment for newborns
This study looks at ways to test and treat newborns for HIV early to improve their long-term health. It is for mothers with HIV whose babies are less than 3 days old and who are willing to have their babies tested and followed at home.
BeiraAges 18 years+ - NCT06273007Recruiting
Better Birth Care in Ethiopia Through PartoMa Training
This study is testing a new training program for birth attendants (midwives, nurses, and doctors) in Ethiopian hospitals. It aims to improve care during labor and delivery to save more lives of mothers and newborns.
Harar, OromiyaAges 18–50 - NCT06293703Recruiting
Leg length ratio and weight loss after gastric bypass
This study looks at how the length of different parts of your small intestine affects weight loss after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery. It may help doctors tailor the surgery for better results.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–70 - NCT06309563Recruiting
Essential amino acid diet for severe obesity
This study tests whether replacing some foods with essential amino acids (protein building blocks) can improve metabolism in people with severe obesity. It aims to find a non-surgical way to boost weight loss.
Oggebbio, VerbaniaAges 45–65 - NCT06324916Recruiting
Long-term effects after fibula bone graft
This study looks at long-term effects at the donor site (where the bone was taken) after a fibula graft. It helps doctors understand how well patients recover from this surgery.
AsyutAges 18 years+ - NCT06341699Recruiting
Hormones in severe obesity
This study looks at hormone levels in people with severe obesity to understand how they differ from others. It may help explain how obesity affects the body.
Oggebbio, VerbaniaAges 18–80 - NCT06443515Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for morbidity?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 218 recruiting morbidity 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 morbidity 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 morbidity 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.
