Tested heart-risk drug for people with recent heart-attack genetics
This trial studies whether dalcetrapib can lower future heart and blood-vessel risk in people who recently had an ACS (acute coronary syndrome, often a heart attack or unstable chest pain) and have a specific genetic marker. It may help people like you by targeting a risk pathway related to that genetic background.
Alexander City, AlabamaAges 45 years+ - NCT05912517RecruitingPhase 3
Nipocalimab for high-risk pregnancy blood disease
This Phase 3 trial tests nipocalimab (an antibody medicine) to help prevent severe blood breakdown in a baby when a parent has certain blood antibodies.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for placebo - control?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 3,902 recruiting placebo - control 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 placebo - control 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 placebo - control 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.
