Recruiting studies
- NCT04347655Recruiting
Studies blood flow and heart pumping in adults with heart failure
This study looks at how well blood moves through the body and how strongly the left side of the heart pumps in adults. It compares people who have heart failure to people who do not, to better understand differences and possible causes.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT04297605RecruitingPhase 1
Pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This Phase 1 study tests pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) given together with a chemotherapy drug to treat non-small cell lung cancer that is locally advanced or has spread. It’s aimed at people who can handle treatment with an ECOG performance status of 2, including some with certain types of brain metastases.
Rochester, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04299945Recruiting
Beetroot juice to boost exercise in fibrotic lung disease
This trial tests whether drinking beetroot juice can improve exercise performance in people with fibrotic interstitial lung disease (scarring in the lungs). It may help your body use oxygen better during activity if you meet the study’s safety and lung-function requirements.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 19 years+ - NCT04339374Recruiting
Ultrasound and light imaging during rectal cancer surgery
This study tests a newer kind of imaging (ultrasound plus light-based measurements) to help doctors tell rectal cancer apart from other tissue during surgery. You may be able to take part if you’re having surgery for rectal cancer and the tumor is close enough to the anus.
St Louis, MissouriAges 19 years+ - NCT03948100Recruiting
Yoga coaching for lung or esophageal cancer during radiation
This study tests whether a guided yoga program helps people with lung or esophageal cancer improve strength, daily functioning, and quality of life while they receive radiation therapy. It also involves a family caregiver, to support the patient during treatment.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04011566Recruiting
Testing a shunt sensor in people with symptom-free hydrocephalus shunts
This study checks how well a device called ShuntCheck works for monitoring a ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt in people who feel okay (no symptoms) with normal pressure hydrocephalus. It may help improve future shunt checks during routine care.
Tampa, FloridaAges 40 years+ - NCT03755245Enrolling by invitation
Imaging study using a tracer to measure inflammation in joints and lungs
This trial tests how a radioactive imaging medicine (a tracer called 68Ga-DOTA-Siglec-9) spreads in the body and how well it shows inflammation. It includes both healthy volunteers and people with active rheumatoid arthritis, vasculitis, or pulmonary sarcoidosis to see if the scan matches disease activity.
TurkuAges 18–70 - NCT03689595Enrolling by invitation
PROMISE study: Predicting myeloma risk in high-risk groups
This study uses a blood test to find early signs of myeloma in people at higher risk, such as those with a family history or African ancestry. It aims to predict who might develop myeloma before symptoms appear.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 30 years+ - NCT03258580Recruiting
Studying how culture and mind affect how we feel pain
This study looks at how beliefs, mood, and social factors affect how people express and judge pain. It mainly uses pain/heat testing and—if chosen—brain scans to understand why pain reports can differ between people.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–60 - NCT03274050Recruiting
Testing robotic surgery for children and adults needing operations
This trial studies how well and how efficiently robotic surgery works in both children and adults who need a procedure where robotic surgery is appropriate. It may help surgeons plan safer, smoother operations and improve operating-room efficiency.
Paris, ParisAges Any age - NCT02604563Recruiting
Aging, blood changes, and health in older adults
This study examines why some older adults develop changes in their blood cells that may affect their health. Researchers will look for links between these blood changes, aging, and common health problems in older people.
St Louis, MissouriAges 50 years+ - NCT01365169Recruiting
How activity level and daily function relate to cancer survival
This study looks at how physical activity (movement during the day) and a clinician-rated “day-to-day function” score relate to overall survival in people with certain cancers. It may help doctors understand who benefits most from activity-focused care and better monitoring.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT01617382Recruiting
Registering people getting heated chemotherapy into the abdomen
This trial is a registry study that follows people with certain abdominal (peritoneal) cancers who are planned for surgery plus heated chemotherapy placed inside the abdomen. It mainly helps doctors learn about outcomes and care patterns for these treatments.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for performance?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 829 recruiting performance 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 performance 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 performance 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.
