Reducing overdose deaths by targeting opioid use
This study aims to reduce opioid-related overdose deaths in Illinois by identifying people who are likely using opioids in a non-medical way. You may be invited to participate if you live in a specific area and meet criteria for opioid use.

Cord clamping timing for preterm babies
This study compares waiting a bit before clamping the umbilical cord versus clamping it right away for babies born between 32 and 37 weeks of pregnancy. It helps determine which approach may be better for preterm infants.
Tunis, Tunis GovernorateAges birth+ - NCT04942041Recruiting
Thrombectomy for large stroke blockages at low-volume centers
This study tests whether using a procedure called mechanical thrombectomy at smaller stroke centers can improve outcomes after a large-vessel stroke. It may help people who have a major artery blockage get timely treatment, with measured effects on complications and survival.
Kristiansand, AgderAges 18–100 - NCT05013944Recruiting
Join a patient registry to support future research
This trial is a “patient registry,” which collects health information over time to help researchers plan and run future studies. It may help by contributing your experience so new treatments can be tested more effectively.
Arlington Heights, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05041556Recruiting
Study of RTS,S malaria vaccine evidence in local areas
This study checks how well evidence about the RTS,S/AS01 malaria vaccine helps inform health policy. You may be included if you live in a specific local area and your child is the right age for the vaccine schedule, and you agree to participate.
KintampoAges 6 months–4.9 years - NCT05264051Recruiting
MRI scan to predict outcomes in liver disease
This study looks at MRI images taken as part of routine care to see if they can help predict future health problems in people with liver disease. If you already have an MRI scheduled for clinical reasons, this may help doctors better estimate risk over time.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05440331Recruiting
Study of safer handoffs during major surgery in operating rooms
This trial looks at how well information is passed (a “handoff”) between anesthesia team members during major surgery. The goal is to improve safety by reducing preventable mistakes around the time patients move from one caregiver to another.
Boulogne-BillancourtAges 18 years+ - NCT05466825Recruiting
Using health data to study cardiovascular risk
This study brings together existing health information to understand how common heart-risk factors relate to heart outcomes. It may help improve how future risk is predicted and prevented, especially in people who have not yet had heart disease.
Hamburg, Free and Hanseatic City of HamburgAges 18 years+ - NCT05486572Recruiting
Ultrasound or MRI to help prevent liver cancer deaths
This study compares ultrasound scans versus MRI scans to see which one better helps prevent deaths from liver cancer in people with cirrhosis. You may be assigned to one of the two imaging tests and follow-up visits to track whether liver cancer develops or is caught early.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–75 - NCT05580666RecruitingPhase 3
Lower death risk by adding azithromycin to HIV treatment
This Phase 3 study tests whether adding azithromycin helps people with advanced HIV disease live longer. You would start (or restart or adjust) HIV treatment within 4 weeks and may also receive azithromycin or a comparison approach to see if outcomes improve.
AbidjanAges 18 years+ - NCT05590455RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a TNF-blocking drug to reduce death in HIV and TB meningitis
This Phase 2 trial studies whether a TNF-blocking medicine can lower the risk of death in people with HIV who also have TB meningitis. You would receive standard TB meningitis treatment plus the study drug, if you meet the criteria.
Rio de JaneiroAges 18 years+ - NCT05879276RecruitingPhase 3
Early empagliflozin for shock patients after ICU start
This trial studies whether starting empagliflozin early in adults with cardiogenic shock helps people live longer and have fewer hospital returns, while also checking heart pumping and kidney function. It may help some ICU patients, but eligibility is strict and depends on kidney function and prior medication use.
Ars-LaquenexyAges 18 years+ - NCT05928767Recruiting
Using frailty scores to predict death in ICU sepsis
This trial checks whether a “frailty” rating (how physically/mentally vulnerable someone is) can predict the risk of death in ICU patients with sepsis shock. It may help doctors identify higher-risk patients earlier and tailor care.
BéthuneAges 18–65 - NCT06105580Recruiting
Pacing methods for heart failure with wide QRS
This trial compares two ways to pace the heart in people with heart failure and a wide QRS (a sign the heart's electrical signals are slowed). The goal is to see which method better reduces the risks of death, heart failure hospitalization, or needing a heart transplant.
BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07483710Recruiting
CT scan muscle test in ICU for septic shock
This study looks at whether a CT scan of the lower back muscle, taken when you first arrive in the intensive care unit for septic shock, can help predict recovery three months later. It may help doctors better understand how muscle health affects survival.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT06420479Recruiting
How weight-loss surgery affects heart disease risk
This study looks at how weight-loss surgery (bariatric surgery) affects the chances of developing heart disease or dying early. It may help you if you have obesity but have never had heart problems or cancer before.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT07202754Recruiting
Complex heart procedure study for adults 18-85
This study looks at how often complications happen and long-term survival in people having complex coronary procedures. It may help doctors understand which treatments work best for complex heart disease.
IstanbulAges 18–85 - NCT06515366Recruiting
Blood pressure and death risk in heart failure patients
This study looks at whether average blood pressure (MAP) is linked to survival in people with heart failure. If you are an adult with heart failure symptoms, participating may help doctors better understand how blood pressure affects outcomes.
Ankara, YenimahalleAges 18 years+ - NCT06515392Recruiting
Predicting stroke risk after a mini-stroke or clot stroke
This study looks at how well certain scores predict the risk of another mini-stroke, stroke, or death after a mini-stroke or certain type of stroke. If you qualify, you will help doctors better understand these risks.
Ankara, YenimahalleAges 18 years+ - NCT06525012Recruiting
Study on recovery after brain aneurysm bleeding in Martinique
This study looks at what happens to people who are hospitalized in Martinique after a brain aneurysm bursts. The goal is to understand recovery and outcomes better.
Fort-de-FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT06560983Recruiting

Kathmandu, BagmatiAges 18 years+ - NCT06563401Recruiting
Heart health in adults with type 1 diabetes
This study looks at the long-term risk of heart disease and death in people diagnosed with type 1 diabetes as adults. Researchers will compare their health to people without diabetes to understand how type 1 diabetes affects the heart over time.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for mortality?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 155 recruiting mortality 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 mortality 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 mortality 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.
