Recruiting studies
- NCT02594202Recruiting
Collecting prostate cancer care details and prostate tissue samples
This trial enrolls adults who are being evaluated or treated for possible or confirmed prostate cancer and allows researchers to collect prostate tissue. It may help improve understanding of prostate cancer over the course of diagnosis and standard care.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT02379429Recruiting
Collecting bladder/urothelial cancer tissue for future research
This study looks at urothelial cancer (often bladder cancer) samples taken during diagnosis or standard treatment. It may help researchers better understand the disease by using tissue that doctors already need to collect for care.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT02610426Recruiting
Genetic testing to study who develops heart failure during breast cancer therapy
This study uses DNA genetic testing to find DNA changes that might explain why some people develop heart failure (CHF) after breast cancer treatment with certain medicines. It may help researchers understand risk and improve care for future patients.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT02193542Recruiting
Study of breathing tube and epidural difficulty in childbirth
This study observes how often pregnant people have a difficult airway (trouble placing a breathing tube) or difficult neuraxial placement (like an epidural) during childbirth. It helps doctors improve safe delivery care.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT02596490Recruiting
Couple meditation program for metastatic lung cancer and partners
This study tests whether a couple-based meditation program can help people with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer and their romantic partners cope better during treatment. It looks at the experience of both the patient and their partner, not just the patient alone.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT02523014RecruitingPhase 2
Drug combo for meningioma that keeps growing despite treatment
This Phase 2 trial tests several targeted medicines (given together or by specific assignment) for meningiomas inside the brain that are progressing or not fully removed after surgery. It may help slow the tumor’s growth and improve symptoms by blocking tumor growth pathways.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT02530658Recruiting
Sequencing children’s tumor and normal tissue samples
This study collects children’s normal and tumor tissue (or blood-related normal samples) and reads their DNA/RNA to look at genetic information. It may help researchers understand cancer-related changes and improve future testing, even when the goal isn’t to treat you directly.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Any age - NCT02237625Recruiting
Study tracking patients with hypophosphatasia over time
This study follows people who already have hypophosphatasia (HPP) to better understand how the condition changes over time. It may help doctors recognize patterns and improve care, even if you are not receiving a new treatment.
Durham, North CarolinaAges Any age - NCT02610855Enrolling by invitation
Study of activity and muscle function in children with scoliosis
This study looks at how children’s activity levels and muscle performance change in different scoliosis treatments (surgery, bracing, or healthy peers). It uses motion sensors and an ultrasound-based test to better understand what treatments may do to the body’s muscles.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 9–16 - NCT02333604Recruiting
Cancer experience registry for patients and caregivers
This registry collects information about the experiences of people with cancer and the people who care for them. Joining could help researchers better understand needs and improve support, without requiring cancer treatment changes.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT02457962Recruiting
Registry study of outcomes from Mayo radiation treatments
This study collects information about how patients do after radiation treatment and stores some biological samples for future research. It includes people treated at Mayo Clinic Rochester for a cancer-focused (curative) course of radiation.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges Any age - NCT02368041Recruiting
Near-infrared scan test in children with heart failure
This study tests whether a near-infrared “light scan” on the hand can help doctors in children with heart failure who are stable on their usual medications. It may give additional information about blood flow and circulation in the body without using invasive procedures.
Gainesville, FloridaAges Up to 25 years - NCT02478892Recruiting
Screening study for pancreatic cancer in inherited gene risk
This trial tests ways to screen people who have a family-passed (inherited) gene mutation linked to higher pancreatic cancer risk. The goal is to find pancreatic cancer earlier and improve how screening is done for people at increased risk.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02301182Enrolling by invitation
Compare two hip implant types for younger hip arthritis
This trial compares two different hip implant designs in people ages 40–65 with primary hip osteoarthritis. It looks at how well the hip works afterward—especially function and everyday results.
AarhusAges 40–65 - NCT02232191RecruitingPhase 2
Pneumonia vaccine immune response study after spleen injury
This trial studies how your immune system responds to a pneumonia (pneumococcal) vaccine after a spleen injury. It may help doctors better predict and improve protection in people recovering from splenic trauma.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–65 - NCT02422641RecruitingPhase 2
High-dose methotrexate for breast cancer in the brain lining
This Phase 2 trial tests whether giving high-dose methotrexate into the bloodstream can help treat breast cancer that has spread to the thin lining covering the brain and spinal cord. It may help reduce cancer in the leptomeningeal (brain-lining) area and control symptoms.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT02491099RecruitingPhase 2
Afatinib for recurring HER2-positive uterine cancer
This trial tests afatinib, a targeted pill, in people whose uterine serous cancer has a specific HER2 (HER2/neu) tumor marker. It aims to shrink tumors or control the cancer when it keeps coming back.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18–100 - NCT02310178Recruiting
Long-term follow-up after bariatric surgery at Montpellier
This study follows people who have had weight-loss surgery at Montpellier University Hospital to see how they do over time. It helps doctors understand the long-term benefits and challenges after surgery.
MontpellierAges 15 years+ - NCT02361320Recruiting
CT scan study for pancreatic or liver bile cancer
This study looks at how CT scans (detailed X-ray pictures) help diagnose pancreatic cancer or hepatobiliary (liver/bile duct) cancers. It may help your care team better decide what’s going on and plan next treatments.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT02479698RecruitingPhase 2
Immune cells for BK or JC virus infections
This trial tests a treatment using special immune cells (called cytotoxic T lymphocytes) to fight BK or JC virus infections in people with weakened immune systems, such as cancer patients or organ transplant recipients. It may help control the virus and reduce related complications.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT02670447Recruiting
Checking new support for a first psychosis, no prior medication
This trial looks at people having a first psychotic episode who have not yet taken anti-psychotic medicine. It aims to see whether an early support approach can help, before other treatments become necessary.
BronAges 18–35 - NCT02304913Recruiting
Acupuncture to reduce bad taste during chemotherapy
This trial studies whether hypoglossal acupuncture can reduce dysgeusia, or a persistently bad/altered taste, in people who are receiving chemotherapy. If you qualify, it may help improve taste-related eating and quality of life during treatment.
Essen, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT02622581Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for patient?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 14,161 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.
