Recruiting studies
- NCT06334003Recruiting
Heart health in moms and babies after fertility treatment
This study looks at how fertility treatments affect the heart and metabolism of mothers and their children. It compares women who became pregnant with or without fertility help to understand any differences.
CopenhagenAges 18–40 - NCT07124312Recruiting
Placenta study for identical twin pregnancies
This trial studies the placentas of identical (monochorionic) twin pregnancies to learn more about their structure and health. Participation involves donating the placenta after birth for analysis.
Birmingham, West MidlandsAges Any age - NCT05761769Recruiting
Twin pregnancy study to support patients and families
This study looks at twin pregnancies with two or more babies that are progressing (viable). You may be able to take part if you’re an adult, can understand the study, and agree to informed consent.
RomeAges 18–50 - NCT05008744Recruiting
Laser treatment for twin-to-twin transfusion using one shared placenta
This study tests a laser procedure that seals abnormal blood vessel connections in identical twins sharing one placenta (twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome). The goal is to improve outcomes by stopping unbalanced blood flow between the twins.
Seattle, WashingtonAges Any age - NCT03371641Recruiting
Study of alcohol exposure effects in unborn babies
This study looks at unborn babies exposed to alcohol during pregnancy and compares them with babies not exposed. Researchers test a pregnancy blood marker to see whether it may relate to early brain changes in the baby.
RouenAges 18 years+ - NCT03626233Recruiting
Study blood vessel changes in preeclampsia and growth restriction
This study looks at how the placenta and blood vessels work in pregnancy, especially in preeclampsia and babies with growth restriction (IUGR). It may help researchers build a blood sample collection and learn what could predict or explain these complications.
CréteilAges 18 years+ - NCT03775954Recruiting
Fetal heart testing in high-risk pregnancies after baby loss
This study checks unborn babies’ heart signals using special scans during pregnancy and then checks the baby’s heart shortly after birth. It may help researchers understand why certain high-risk pregnancies can lead to fetal demise and improve care.
Madison, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT04304625RecruitingPhase 3
Tranexamic acid to reduce blood loss after C-section
This trial studies whether tranexamic acid can prevent heavy bleeding after a planned or urgent cesarean delivery in people with placenta previa. If you qualify, you may receive the study drug to help your body keep blood loss lower during and after surgery.
BordeauxAges 18–65 - NCT04819893Recruiting
Study fatty acids and eye disease risk in newborns
This study looks at whether fatty acids from the mother are linked to the risk of retinopathy of prematurity, an eye condition that can affect very premature babies. It involves checking factors related to how the body responds to fatty acids during pregnancy and comparing mothers in different pregnancy situations.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT05586334Recruiting
Test a device to help predict preterm birth risk
This trial tests an innovative device that measures risk of preterm birth in pregnant people who come to the emergency room early in pregnancy with signs that labor might start. It may help doctors identify who needs closer monitoring or treatment sooner.
ColombesAges 18 years+ - NCT05952583Recruiting
Study of growth-restricted twin babies in shared placenta
This study looks at babies in monochorionic (shared-placenta) twin pregnancies where one or both babies are growing too slowly. It aims to better understand this condition and follow families over time to improve care, with check-ins through age 2 after birth.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–50 - NCT06017869RecruitingPhase 2
Mitochondria therapy for Pearson Syndrome in children
This trial tests a one-time infusion of your own blood cells mixed with donated mitochondria to see if it can help children with Pearson Syndrome grow better and improve their health. It is a new approach that aims to provide the energy your cells need.
Ramat Gan, IsraelAges 1–18 - NCT06056635Recruiting
Study of special telescopes for fetal surgery
This study tests two types of small cameras (fetoscopes) to see how well they work for surgery on a baby before birth. Doctors want to learn if these tools can safely perform fetal procedures.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–45 - NCT06427408Recruiting
Placenta Gene Study in Early and Full-Term Pregnancy
This study looks at gene activity in the placenta during early and full-term pregnancy. It may help researchers understand how the placenta works and how it affects both mother and baby.
Paris, IDFAges 18–50 - NCT06465160RecruitingPhase 1
Study of MNV-201 for low-risk MDS with anemia
This study tests a new therapy called MNV-201 for people with low-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) who have anemia and need regular blood transfusions. The goal is to see if this treatment can help reduce or stop the need for transfusions.
Jerusalem, IsraelAges 18–100 - NCT06493968Recruiting
Medications to reduce blood loss during C-section hysterectomy for PAS
This trial tests if giving a special medication during surgery can help reduce blood loss in women with a condition called PAS (where the placenta grows too deeply into the uterus) who are having a C-section and their uterus removed. It may make the surgery safer.
CairoAges 20–40 - NCT06620432Recruiting
Comparing incisions in first cesarean for better healing
This study compares two ways of making the cut (incision) in the uterus during a first cesarean section to see which one helps the uterus heal better. Researchers want to know if a higher or lower incision leads to fewer defects in the uterine wall afterward.
Cali, Valle del Cauca DepartmentAges 18 years+ - NCT06833606Recruiting
Placental accreta diagnosis and outcomes study
This trial looks at how to diagnose and what happens to pregnant women with a condition where the placenta grows too deeply into the uterus (placental accreta). It may help doctors better understand the condition and improve care.
Bologna, BolognaAges 18–44 - NCT06918236Recruiting
Pregnancy after fertility treatment: study of outcomes
This study looks at pregnancy results for women who had fertility treatments (like IVF). You can join if your baby is alive on ultrasound and you are between 11 and 14 weeks pregnant.
PlevenAges 18 years+ - NCT06992245Recruiting
Placental diffusion in pregnancy diabetes
This study uses MRI to measure how well the placenta works in women with diabetes during pregnancy. It aims to understand how diabetes affects the placenta and the baby.
HaderaAges 18–50 - NCT07677670Recruiting
AI Ultrasound Screening for Pregnant Women in Rural DR Congo
This study tests if an AI-powered ultrasound device, used by local health workers, can safely screen pregnant women in rural DR Congo. If you join, you will receive an ultrasound during a routine checkup to check on your baby's health.
Kenge, KwangoAges 16 years+ - NCT07470320Recruiting
Placenta study in healthy and complicated pregnancies
This study looks at how the placenta works in healthy pregnancies and in pregnancies with conditions like pre-eclampsia, gestational diabetes, or fetal growth restriction. It may help find new ways to detect or treat these problems.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for placenta?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 46 recruiting placenta 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 placenta 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 placenta 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.
