Decision tool for mastectomy choices in new breast cancer
This study tests a decision-making tool to help people with newly diagnosed breast cancer make choices about removing the other (opposite) breast as a preventive step. It may help you think through risks and options in a clearer, more structured way.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT02828592RecruitingPhase 2
Transplant trial for severe aplastic anemia with related donor
This Phase 2 study tests a bone marrow transplant from a closely matched related donor, plus medicine after the transplant to help prevent immune complications. It may be an option if you have severe aplastic anemia and meet specific health and lab requirements.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 1–75 - NCT03011814RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Durvalumab plus lenalidomide for relapsed T-cell lymphoma
This study tests a combination of two drugs—durvalumab (an immunotherapy) and lenalidomide (a targeted therapy)—to see if they are safe and effective for people with T-cell lymphoma that has come back or not responded to treatment. It aims to harness your immune system to fight the cancer while also attacking the cancer cells directly.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03017573Recruiting
Cancer biobank study linking tumor, immune system, and environment
This study collects tumor and related samples from people with certain newly diagnosed cancers. Researchers use these samples to better understand how cancer cells, the surrounding tissue, and the immune system interact, which may guide better future treatments.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT02675959RecruitingPhase 2
Transplant with defibrotide for sickle cell disease
This trial tests a stem cell transplant from a half-matched donor using a strong conditioning regimen and a drug called defibrotide to protect organs. It aims to cure sickle cell disease in patients who have had serious complications like stroke, chest syndrome, or frequent pain episodes.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 6 months–21 years - NCT02699736Enrolling by invitation
HIV and hepatitis C study in European adults
This study follows people living with HIV who also have hepatitis C antibodies, to better understand how HIV and hepatitis C affect health over time. You may be able to join if you meet the age and enrollment requirements, even if your hepatitis C virus level is currently undetectable.
Buenos AiresAges 16 years+ - NCT02995538Recruiting
Registry for people with suspected genetic nerve disorders
This registry collects health and family history from people who may have an inherited (genetic) neurological condition. It helps researchers understand what genetic causes are involved and may lead to better future care.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges Any age - NCT02808260Recruiting
Tracking what predicts abnormal heart rhythms after pacemaker
This study looks for patterns that can predict an abnormal heart rhythm called SCAF in people who have a pacemaker or defibrillator. The goal is to help doctors recognize risk earlier and respond sooner if it happens.
Ottawa, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT02772367Recruiting
Make heart muscle cells from blood or skin in breast cancer
This study grows heart muscle cells from your blood or skin to better understand why some people develop heart problems from HER2 cancer treatments. You may be helping researchers learn how to predict and prevent treatment-related heart damage.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT02925819Recruiting
Study for severe mitral valve disease when surgery isn’t an option
This trial focuses on people with severe mitral valve narrowing or leaking who still have symptoms even after the best usual medications. It may help find better care and measure health outcomes when surgery is judged too risky or not suitable.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT02838836Recruiting
Checking for cancer DNA and tumor cells in bodily samples
This study looks for cancer-related material in blood, urine, and sometimes bone marrow. It may help researchers understand how to detect cancer activity and track it over time using less invasive tests.
Columbia, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT02978521Recruiting
Pulmonary rehab program for advanced lung cancer
This trial studies whether a structured breathing and activity program (pulmonary rehabilitation) can help people with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer. It may help improve breathing and daily function alongside standard cancer treatment.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for patient?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 14,158 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.
