Recruiting studies
- NCT04524091Recruiting
Predict breathing effort response to higher ventilator pressure
This trial looks at how much breathing effort changes when the ventilator uses a higher pressure in people who are recovering from ARDS. The goal is to predict who will respond better so care can be adjusted more safely and effectively.
San Martín, Buenos AiresAges 18 years+ - NCT04561206RecruitingPhase 2
Brentuximab plus nivolumab for relapsed Hodgkin lymphoma
This Phase 2 trial studies brentuximab vedotin plus nivolumab in people whose classical Hodgkin lymphoma has come back or did not respond to treatment. It aims to shrink tumors and improve control of the disease, especially when standard options like transplant are not possible.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04579588Recruiting
Study flu vaccine immunity in people after COVID-19
This study looks at how well your immune system (your body’s infection-fighting system) responds to a flu vaccine after you’ve had COVID-19. It may help doctors understand why some people have different protection after vaccines.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 9–64 - NCT04528511Recruiting
Studying new atrial fibrillation after heart attack
This study looks at how often atrial fibrillation happens soon after an acute heart attack, and who is most at risk. It may help doctors identify patients who need closer heart-rhythm monitoring after a hospital heart attack.
Kaifeng, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT04533152Recruiting
Study risk factors for healing in diabetic foot ulcers
This study looks at what factors affect outcomes in adults with diabetic foot ulcers. It may help doctors better predict healing and complications by better understanding what influences progress.
CaenAges 18 years+ - NCT04499053RecruitingPhase 2
Durvalumab and tremelimumab with chemotherapy for advanced lung cancer in HIV
This trial tests a combination of immune therapy drugs (durvalumab and tremelimumab) given with chemotherapy in people with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer who also have HIV. It may help shrink or control cancer by boosting the immune response while keeping HIV well controlled.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04511039RecruitingPhase 1
New targeted pill combo for advanced colon or stomach cancers
This Phase 1 trial tests a combination of oral (swallowed) drugs—trifluridine/tipiracil plus talazoparib—in people with advanced (locally advanced or metastatic) colorectal or gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma. It’s designed to see how well the treatment can control cancer and to better understand side effects and dosing.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04529785Recruiting
Tested added ethanol vein treatment during repeat atrial fibrillation ablation
This trial compares two ways to help stop atrial fibrillation during a repeat procedure: standard vein isolation only versus standard isolation plus an added medicine (ethanol) into the vein of Marshall. It aims to see whether the added step improves results when atrial fibrillation returns after a previous successful treatment.
Bruges, Please SelectAges 18 years+ - NCT04512716RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Radioimmunotherapy then CD19 CAR T for hard-to-treat blood cancers
This early-phase study tests a two-step treatment: first a targeted radioactive antibody (131-I apamistamab) and then CD19 CAR T-cell therapy. It is for adults with relapsed or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) or diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that is not responding or has come back, aiming to shrink cancer using engineered immune cells.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT04589624RecruitingPhase 1
MRI scan to monitor response in head and neck cancers
This Phase 1 study tests an investigational MRI scan (hpMRI) to help doctors see how thyroid cancer and other head-and-neck cancers respond to treatment like radiation or other medicines. If you’re eligible, the scan may help track treatment effects more closely, though it’s still being studied for this purpose.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04523415Recruiting
CT-based study of displaced upper arm bone fractures
This trial is studying people age 17+ with a recently fractured upper arm bone near the shoulder, using CT scans and 3D planning. It may help doctors improve how these fractures are evaluated and treated after injury.
Shijiazhuang, HebeiAges 17 years+ - NCT04567706Recruiting
Melanoma tissue samples storage for future research
This study is about collecting and storing tissue samples from people affected by melanoma so researchers can use them for future studies. It may help speed up research, but it is mainly about sample storage rather than testing a new treatment.
Columbus, OhioAges Any age - NCT04491370RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cell transplant then polatuzumab for certain lymphomas
This trial tests whether doing your own stem cell transplant, followed by polatuzumab, can improve outcomes in people with specific B-cell non-Hodgkin or Hodgkin lymphomas that did not fully respond or has come back. It aims to add a targeted medicine after transplant to help control the lymphoma.
Valhalla, New YorkAges 12–70 - NCT04504721Enrolling by invitation
Light therapy for fibromyalgia using blue-enriched white light
This study tests whether a specific type of light (blue-enriched white light) can reduce symptoms of fibromyalgia. It may help people feel better by changing how the body responds to light.
TaipeiAges 20–64 - NCT04493996Recruiting
Cognitive training before heart surgery to protect memory
This trial tests whether brain-focused cognitive training before elective heart surgery can help reduce memory and thinking problems afterward. If you qualify, you may do language-based thinking exercises and complete short brain tests around the time of surgery.
Bad NauheimAges 18 years+ - NCT04494074Recruiting
Cooling fever in ventilated people with septic shock
This study tests whether external cooling can safely lower very high fever in people who are on a breathing machine for septic shock. It may help improve outcomes by controlling fever while they are treated for the infection causing their illness.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT04507412RecruitingPhase 4
IV steroid before shoulder surgery to reduce inflammation
This trial studies whether giving dexamethasone through a vein (an anti-inflammatory steroid) around the time of total shoulder replacement surgery improves outcomes. It may help lower inflammation and related discomfort, but you must meet specific health and medication safety criteria to join.
LuganoAges 58–85 - NCT04517838Recruiting
Testing immune responses to anti-HER2 breast cancer treatments
This study looks at how your immune system reacts to anti-HER2 treatments in people with HER2-positive breast cancer. It may help doctors understand who responds best by studying immune signals in blood (and sometimes tissue) during or after treatment.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04566341Enrolling by invitation
Study gut problems in Parkinson’s and changes in gut nerves
This study looks at how digestive (gut) problems happen in people with Parkinson’s and whether there are related changes in the nerve tissue in the digestive tract. It may help researchers better understand the cause of these symptoms and find new ways to monitor or treat them.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 40–85 - NCT04521764RecruitingPhase 1

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.
