Recruiting studies
- NCT07247877Enrolling by invitation
Study of small liver grafts for portal hypertension treatment
This trial explores using smaller liver grafts in a partial transplant to treat portal hypertension, which may help patients avoid full transplant risks. It compares this approach to standard liver transplant.
Ages 14 years+ - NCT06173947Recruiting
SSM Score for Liver Injury in Chronic Liver Disease
This study looks at how well a simple score (called SSM) can predict recovery in people with chronic liver disease who suddenly get a liver injury with jaundice. It may help your doctors understand how serious your condition is.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT05325437Recruiting
Laparoscopic spleen surgery to protect liver function in cirrhosis
This trial looks at whether a minimally invasive spleen surgery (with a specific vein-disconnection procedure) can better protect liver function in people with cirrhosis who have had variceal bleeding. It may help reduce stress on the liver after treatment, but you must meet several safety criteria.
Yangzhou, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT06861075Recruiting
Carvedilol for high blood pressure in liver veins
This trial tests whether a medicine called carvedilol can lower high blood pressure in the liver veins of people with cirrhosis. It uses a special ultrasound probe to measure the pressure before and after taking the medicine.
Clermont-FerrandAges 18 years+ - NCT06280313Recruiting
Splenectomy with targeted therapy and immunotherapy for liver cancer
This trial tests whether removing the spleen (splenectomy) can improve the effectiveness of targeted therapy and immunotherapy for people with advanced liver cancer (HCC) who also have enlarged spleens due to portal hypertension. It aims to see if this combination can help control the cancer better.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - 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 - 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+ - 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 - NCT06265272Recruiting
PSMA-11 PET/MRI for Liver Cirrhosis
This study uses a special PET/MRI scan with a tracer called PSMA-11 to look at how liver cirrhosis affects the liver. It may help doctors better understand and monitor the disease.
Charlestown, MassachusettsAges 18–99 - NCT06099015Recruiting
Cera vascular plug study for blocking blood vessels
This study tests a device called the Cera Vascular Plug System to block blood flow in certain arteries or veins. It may help patients who need this type of treatment for conditions like abnormal blood vessels or bleeding.
Bad HersfeldAges 18–85 - NCT06871462Enrolling by invitation
Texting program to help monitor blood pressure at home
This study tests a program that uses text messages to help people with high blood pressure check and manage their blood pressure at home. It may help you better control your blood pressure and reduce health risks.
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.
