This trial tests a targeted pill called repotrectinib for people with a specific type of lung cancer (ROS1-positive non-small cell lung cancer) that has spread to the brain. The drug aims to shrink brain tumors and control the cancer, especially when brain-focused treatments like surgery or radiation are not needed right away.
GrazAges 18 years+ - NCT06205121RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new drug for active lung sarcoidosis
This study tests a new medication, OATD-01, for people with active sarcoidosis in their lungs. It aims to see how safe and effective the drug is and if it can improve symptoms.

Using mindfulness coaching to help people move more
This trial studies a program that uses mindfulness coaching to help people with chronic lung disease (COPD) and/or heart failure (HF) be more physically active. You may benefit if you can safely start exercising and track your steps using a Fitbit.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 40 years+ - NCT04882904Recruiting
Tracking movement in people with ALS and healthy volunteers
This study continuously measures activity and movement in people with ALS and in control participants. It aims to better understand how muscle disease changes day-to-day function, which may help improve future monitoring or care.
Liège, LiègeAges 18 years+ - NCT05704647RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab plus relatlimab for melanoma in the brain
This Phase 2 study tests whether nivolumab plus relatlimab can shrink or control melanoma that has spread to the brain. It may help by boosting the immune system to attack the cancer, including melanoma in brain areas that can’t be treated with prior focused radiation.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04299828Recruiting
Study of inflammation activity during complex heart surgery
This study measures how active white blood cells and inflammation are during complex heart surgery using a heart-lung machine. It may help doctors better understand what triggers inflammation during surgery and how to improve care.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT04800276Recruiting
Exercise program for leg artery disease
This trial tests a supervised exercise program for people with leg pain when walking caused by narrowed leg arteries. The goal is to see if exercise can improve walking ability and quality of life.
Le MansAges 18 years+ - NCT04692675Recruiting
MRI study to track prostate cancer in active surveillance patients
This study uses special prostate MRI scans to see how prostate cancer changes over time while you stay on active surveillance. It also looks at prostate tissue to understand your cancer’s genetics, which may help guide future decisions.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04700579Recruiting
Study lung changes before and after treatment for active TB
This study looks at changes in the lungs and immune system before TB treatment and again after treatment. By sampling lung fluid and comparing it over time, researchers hope to learn signatures that reflect how TB responds to care.
Cape Town, Western CapeAges 18–60 - NCT07808177RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Study of a targeted radiation drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial is testing an investigational drug called 177Lu-FAP-VG1 for people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard therapy. The drug is a type of radiation therapy that targets a protein called FAP, which is found on many cancer cells, to try to shrink the tumor and slow the cancer's growth.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT07560397Recruiting
Home-Based Exercise Program for Head and Neck Cancer Patients
This study tests whether patients recovering from head and neck cancer surgery can safely do supervised exercise exercises at home. The program aims to help you regain strength and function during your recovery.
RouenAges 18 years+ - NCT03371407Recruiting
Study brain movement training in people with Parkinson’s
This study looks at how people with Parkinson’s adapt their movements and how their brain sensorimotor system works. It may help researchers improve understanding of Parkinson’s and refine movement-focused therapies.
MarseilleAges 18 years+ - NCT05588700Recruiting
Exercise program to reduce long-term cancer fatigue
This trial studies whether a structured physical activity program can reduce ongoing (long-term) fatigue in men with metastatic testicular cancer. It likely helps by improving fitness and energy during and after first-line chemotherapy.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT06999616Recruiting

Testing whether heart nerve signals predict COPD symptoms
This study looks at “sympathetic nerve activity” (signals from the nervous system that affect the heart) in adults with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The goal is to see whether these measurements can help predict what happens to people with COPD.
AachenAges 18 years+ - NCT03892993Recruiting
Decision aid for medullary thyroid cancer treatment choices
This study tests a patient-and-caregiver decision guide to help you decide when to start or stop a new cancer drug, join a clinical trial, or continue active surveillance. It aims to make tough choices feel clearer and more supported.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06777134Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for patient activation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 425 recruiting patient activation 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 patient activation 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 patient activation 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.
