Testing patient tumor samples to create research models in breast cancer
This study collects tumor-related samples from people with invasive breast cancer who are having surgery after treatment before surgery. Researchers use your samples to create lab models (called PDX and organoids) to help study breast cancer and find better future treatments.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT04748770Recruiting
Kidney Transplant Access for Obese Dialysis Patients
This study looks at whether obese patients who are starting dialysis can safely receive kidney transplants. Researchers want to understand how weight affects transplant success and access to this life-changing treatment.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT04764357Recruiting
Scalp cooling to help prevent chemotherapy-related hair loss in kids
This study looks at whether “cold cap” scalp cooling can help prevent or reduce hair loss in children getting chemotherapy. It’s aimed at kids treated with certain chemotherapy medicines and who may be at risk for losing their hair.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 7 years+ - NCT04720365Recruiting
Home video game rehab to help Parkinson’s walking and balance
This trial tests whether a serious (therapeutic) home video-game program can improve walking and balance problems for people with Parkinson’s disease who still have trouble even with levodopa. It also looks at whether the approach is worth it in real-world care (cost and benefits).
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT04751409RecruitingPhase 2
Less versus more follow-up after sarcoma surgery
This trial compares two schedules of post-treatment check-ups to see which one better supports patient quality of life. You’d fill out surveys for up to two years to measure how you feel over time.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03258320RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing chemo plus surgery for certain prostate cancers
This trial compares different chemotherapy drugs given around the time of surgery to see which approach works best for men with certain locally advanced prostate cancer. It may help find a better way to control the cancer after surgery.
Qingdao, ShandongAges 40–75 - NCT04619524Recruiting
Blood and lining tests during IVF cycles to guide endometrial timing
This study looks at “biomarkers” (test signals in your blood or cycle data) to better judge how ready the womb lining is during IVF. It compares two types of IVF hormone setups to see which approach best matches endometrial receptivity and supports successful embryo transfer.
Brno, South MoravianAges Up to 36 years - NCT04466124Enrolling by invitation
Study of liver cancer patients getting proton beam therapy
This study follows people with liver cancer who are scheduled to receive proton beam therapy. It looks at how patients do after treatment and what to expect going forward.
Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 19 years+ - NCT04457895Recruiting
Yoga and physical therapy program for hormone therapy breast cancer pain
This trial studies whether a combined physical therapy, yoga, and patient education program can reduce pain in people with non-metastatic breast cancer who are taking hormone therapy. It may help with pain and day-to-day comfort while you continue hormone treatment.
Libourne, AquitaineAges 18–99 - NCT04308707Enrolling by invitation

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for patient?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 14,164 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.
