Recruiting studies
- NCT06432582Recruiting
Liver disease blood marker study for people with stiff livers
This study looks at whether certain micro-RNA levels in your blood can help predict how your chronic liver disease is progressing. It is for people who already have some liver stiffness (measured by a special ultrasound) and are being treated at the University Hospital St. Pölten.
Sankt Pölten, Lower AustriaAges 18 years+ - NCT06434753RecruitingPhase 3
Zinc supplements for stable advanced liver disease
This trial tests whether taking zinc supplements can improve the outlook for people with a certain type of advanced liver disease that is still stable (no major complications). If you have compensated advanced chronic liver disease and meet the criteria, you might be able to join.
BarcelonaAges 18–80 - NCT06449339RecruitingPhase 4
Beta-blocker study for early-stage liver scarring
This study tests a medicine called carvedilol (a non-selective beta-blocker) to see if it can prevent complications in people with advanced chronic liver disease who are at high risk but haven't had serious problems like bleeding yet.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT06500403Recruiting
Non-invasive tools for liver injury after chemotherapy
This study tests non-invasive methods to diagnose a liver condition called PSVD in people who have received platinum chemotherapy. It may help find liver problems early without a biopsy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT06549673Recruiting
Stopping beta blocker in controlled cirrhosis
This study is checking if it is safe for people with cirrhosis (liver scarring) to stop taking a certain blood pressure medicine (non-selective beta blockers) if their main liver problem is under control. If you've had varices or bleeding in the past and your liver is now stable, this trial will see if you can safely stop the medicine.
SydneyAges 18 years+ - NCT06576934Recruiting
Early TIPS for liver cirrhosis with ascites
This study tests whether placing a small tube (called a TIPS) early in the liver can help people with cirrhosis who have their first episode of moderate to severe belly fluid buildup. The goal is to see if this early procedure improves outcomes compared to standard care.
Freiburg im BreisgauAges 18–80 - NCT07281846Recruiting
TIPS with or without BCAA for cirrhosis and muscle wasting
This trial tests whether adding branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) to the standard TIPS procedure helps people with cirrhosis and muscle wasting. It aims to see if BCAA can improve outcomes after TIPS.
WuhanAges 18–80 - NCT07291141Recruiting
MRI vs. Ultrasound for Liver Cancer Detection in Cirrhosis
This study compares MRI and ultrasound to see which is better at finding liver cancer early in people with liver cirrhosis. It also looks at body composition and other factors that could lead to worsening liver function.
Linköping, Select A State Or ProvinceAges 18 years+ - NCT03267615Recruiting
Study in advanced liver scarring using pressure and stiffness tests
This study looks at people over 18 who have advanced, long-term liver scarring. It uses specialized measurements of liver stiffness and pressure to confirm eligibility and may help doctors better understand this condition.
ViennaAges 18–100 - NCT07462091Recruiting
Nerve-guided surgery for enlarged spleen and bleeding risk
This study tests a special surgery using a nerve-guided technique to remove the enlarged spleen and reduce bleeding risk in people with cirrhosis and portal hypertension. It may help if you have an enlarged spleen and have had bleeding related to liver disease.
Yangzhou, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07598669Recruiting
Austrian Primary Biliary Cholangitis Registry Study
This is a registry study that collects health information from people with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), a rare liver disease where the immune system damages bile ducts. By joining, you help researchers better understand PBC and improve care for patients with this condition.
Klagenfurt, CarinthiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06773260Enrolling by invitation
Using liver stiffness to predict varices in advanced liver cancer
This trial uses a simple ultrasound test (measuring liver and spleen stiffness) to predict if a patient with cirrhosis and advanced liver cancer has enlarged veins in the esophagus. The goal is to avoid unnecessary invasive procedures like endoscopy.
Bari, ItalyAges 18–80 - NCT06871462Enrolling by invitation
Home blood pressure monitoring for diverse communities
This study tests whether having people check their own blood pressure at home (with a monitor and text reminders) helps control high blood pressure better than usual care. It is designed for diverse communities and offers support in English, Spanish, or Cantonese.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07397260Enrolling by invitation
Home blood pressure monitoring and feedback for hypertension
This trial tests whether sending your home blood pressure readings to your doctor and getting automatic feedback helps manage high blood pressure. You'll use a blood pressure monitor at home and share results through a patient portal.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–84 - NCT07540143Recruiting
Blood pressure management program for young women
This study tests a program to help women aged 18–44 with high blood pressure who are taking blood pressure medication. The program uses phone and internet tools to help you manage your blood pressure better at home.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–44

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for portal hypertension?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 63 recruiting portal hypertension 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 portal hypertension 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 portal hypertension 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.
