Breathing muscle training before lung surgery to prevent complications
This trial tests whether training your breathing muscles before lung surgery can reduce lung problems after surgery in people with stage I to IIIb lung cancer. It may help improve breathing and lower the chance of post-surgery lung complications.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04164225Recruiting
Testing how qigong affects brain activity in chronic low back pain
This study looks at how doing qigong may change brain activity and physical symptoms in adults with long-lasting low back pain. It’s mainly to see whether the brain and symptom measures can be identified and tracked after qigong practice.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18–70 - NCT04321408Recruiting
Study of ziconotide pain treatment in routine care
This study follows adults with severe, long-lasting pain that has not responded to other treatments, to see how the pain medicine ziconotide works in everyday clinical practice. You may be considered if you’re being evaluated for an implanted pain-delivery system that gives ziconotide into the spinal fluid.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT04443530Recruiting
Testing Ultimaster stents in everyday patient care
This trial looks at how safe and effective two specific stents are when doctors use them as part of routine care. You may be a candidate if you’re an adult receiving one of these Ultimaster stents and can follow the study check-in schedule.

This study looks at how people with autism (and some without autism) react during a routine blood test. Researchers will watch and measure behavior and body responses to better understand distress and comfort during needle procedures.
BordeauxAges 6–65 - NCT04733430Recruiting
Study lung cancer care in real life
This study follows adults with confirmed lung cancer as they are diagnosed and treated in routine clinical practice. It aims to better understand how lung cancer is diagnosed and managed day-to-day, which may help improve future care.
ViennaAges 18–125 - NCT04751396Recruiting
Melanoma education for people with autoimmune conditions

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for practice?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 511 recruiting practice 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 practice 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 practice 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.
