Liver imaging study for children with obesity
This study uses MRI scans to look at the livers of children with obesity, to find early signs of liver problems. It may help doctors understand how to protect the liver in children.
Gothenburg, Västra Götaland CountyAges 9–14 - NCT07740291Recruiting
Tirzepatide and lifestyle study for weight loss
This trial compares two ways to manage weight: taking a GLP-1 medication (like tirzepatide or semaglutide) versus making lifestyle changes without medication. It will help researchers learn which approach works best for people with overweight or obesity.
Lubbock, TexasAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT07075952Recruiting
Training app for food impulse control
This study tests a mobile app that helps you learn to control your impulses around food. It's for people with obesity, binge eating disorder, or bulimia nervosa.
Padova, PadovaAges 16 years+ - NCT02037867Recruiting
Study your liver blood markers if you’re at risk
This study looks at how certain blood tests (liver biomarkers) change in people with higher risk for liver disease. It may help doctors understand who is developing liver problems earlier and what patterns in blood tests matter most.
Nottingham, NottsAges 18 years+ - NCT07305168Recruiting
Breathing after tonsil surgery in children with sleep apnea
This study looks at breathing problems that can happen after tonsil or adenoid surgery in children who have sleep apnea. Researchers want to learn more so they can make surgery safer for kids.

Using entropy to measure sleep breathing in chronic lung disease
This study uses a special mathematical method called entropy to better understand sleep-disordered breathing in people with chronic respiratory disease. If you have a long-term lung condition, this research could help improve how sleep breathing problems are detected and managed.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT04752293Recruiting
Study of a kidney blood-pressure system in kids

- How do I know if I qualify for a obesity (disorder) 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.
