Breast surgery anesthesia and its effects on immunity and survival
This study compares two ways of giving anesthesia during breast cancer surgery to see how they affect the immune system and outcomes after surgery. It may help identify which anesthesia approach is better for people like you having early-stage, operable breast cancer surgery.
MoscowAges 45–74 - NCT04802135Recruiting
Register for babies with early-onset epileptic brain disorders
This trial builds a long-term list (register) of babies whose seizures start within the first month of life and who need anti-seizure medicine. The goal is to better understand these conditions and support future research that could lead to better care.
AngersAges Any age - NCT04803773Recruiting
MRI-guided ultrasound to treat painful bone tumors
This feasibility study tests an MRI-guided focused ultrasound treatment for certain painful bone tumors, including bone metastases and osteoid osteoma. The goal is to see if the treatment can be safely delivered to the right spot and help with pain.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT04804384Recruiting
Testing a brain-controlled hand device after a stroke
This study tests whether a “closed-loop” neuroprosthesis (a hand-control device that responds to your movement) can improve hand grasping after a stroke. It may help people who cannot open or grab objects on their own, and who can safely participate during a short hospital stay.
ToulouseAges 18 years+ - NCT04804956Recruiting
Testing gut microbes and metabolites to predict rectal cancer outcomes
This study looks at patterns in the gut microbiome (gut bacteria) and gut chemicals (metabolites) to predict how rectal cancer may do after planned surgery. By understanding these markers, researchers hope to better forecast prognosis and tailor follow-up.
Girona, GironaAges 18–18 - NCT04805255Recruiting
Study brain-targeted radiation for limited brain metastases
This study looks at people with a small number of brain metastases who are treated with a focused, staged form of radiation after surgery or to treat the cancer. It may help doctors better understand how well this approach works and who benefits most.
TaoyuanAges 18–84 - NCT04806568Recruiting
Cognitive training to help brain flexibility in multiple sclerosis
This study tests whether structured cognitive exercises can improve “neuroplasticity,” meaning how flexible and changeable the brain is. It includes people with multiple sclerosis and healthy volunteers, and uses tasks plus brain scans to see what changes over time.
Thessaloniki, Central MacedoniaAges 18–65 - NCT04808401Recruiting
Testing how different oxygen levels affect surgery outcomes
This trial studies whether giving higher or lower oxygen during general anesthesia changes heart and lung outcomes after planned (non-emergency) non-heart surgery. It may help doctors choose safer oxygen settings during surgery for people at higher risk for heart problems.
BernAges 18 years+ - NCT04811209Recruiting
Testing better pain control and recovery after orthopedic surgery
This trial looks at how well a pain-control plan works after certain orthopedic surgeries and how it affects recovery and patient-reported outcomes. It may help determine what level of pain relief is meaningful to patients after surgery.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–80 - NCT04813159Recruiting
Remote heart preconditioning for people with blocked-heart-attack
This study tests whether a remote, arm-based treatment done around the time of a heart attack can improve outcomes in people with STEMI (a serious heart-attack type). Some participants receive the real treatment and some receive a sham version, while others may be followed observationally depending on how long ago symptoms started.
Mombasa, Mombasa CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT04815356RecruitingPhase 1
T cells designed to attack a blood cancer called hairy cell leukemia
This early-stage (Phase 1) study tests a new type of treatment made from your T cells (immune cells) that are programmed to find and kill cancer cells with a specific marker (CD22). It’s designed for people with hairy cell leukemia that has come back or didn’t respond to prior treatments, and it aims to see safety and how well the approach works.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04814212Recruiting
Testing a drug-coated balloon for people with bleeding risk
This trial looks at whether a “drug-coated balloon” used during a heart procedure (PCI) is safer or better for people who are at higher risk of bleeding while on blood thinners. It may help reduce complications around the time of the procedure in people like you.
Jyväskylä, Central FinlandAges 18 years+ - NCT04814420Recruiting
Study heart scarring in sleep apnea, with or without atrial fibrillation
This pilot study looks at whether obstructive sleep apnea leads to heart scarring (called atrial fibrosis), especially in people with and without an irregular heart rhythm (atrial fibrillation). It may help researchers understand who is at higher risk and why, using sleep testing and heart imaging.
New Orleans, LouisianaAges 18–75 - NCT04815928Recruiting
Registry for people after heart artery procedures
This study is a patient registry that collects information from adults who have had (or will have) two types of heart procedures done to check and treat blocked coronary arteries. It helps doctors understand outcomes and care patterns after these procedures.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT04816227Recruiting
Study of immune cells in ALS and related movement problems
This study looks at immune cells (called macrophages) from people with ALS and certain related movement or nerve conditions. It aims to better understand how the disease works and may help researchers design future treatments.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT04817618RecruitingPhase 3
Iptacopan for kidney inflammation in C3 glomerulopathy
This trial studies whether iptacopan can improve outcomes and safety for people with C3 glomerulopathy, a kidney disease caused by overactive parts of the immune system. Participants must already be on standard kidney-protecting medicines and meet specific kidney function and urine protein criteria.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 12–60 - NCT04819737Recruiting
MRI scan study to better detect spinal cord changes in MS
This study tests new MRI scan methods to more clearly find spinal cord lesions in people with multiple sclerosis (MS). It may help improve how MS spinal cord changes are seen on scans.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT04823923Recruiting
How kidney failure affects drug levels in metastatic kidney cancer

MarseilleAges 18 years+ - NCT04824482Recruiting
Robot training to improve walking after a recent stroke
This study tests a robot-assisted walking program for people recovering after an acute ischemic stroke. It aims to improve how safely and independently you can walk during recovery.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for patient?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 14,850 recruiting patient 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 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 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.
