Recruiting studies
- NCT07585305Recruiting
Blood Flow Restriction Training for Knee Pain in Athletes
This study compares two types of exercise—resistance training and cycling—both using a special technique that temporarily reduces blood flow to your leg muscles. The goal is to see which approach works better for reducing knee pain and improving strength in athletes with patellofemoral pain (pain around or behind the kneecap).
IslamabadAges 18–40 - NCT07605676RecruitingPhase 4
Acupuncture stimulation versus strength training for anemia from heavy periods
This study tests whether acupuncture-based electrical stimulation or resistance (strength) training can help women with moderate iron-deficiency anemia caused by heavy menstrual bleeding. Both treatments aim to improve energy levels and blood counts alongside standard medical care.
CairoAges 20–30 - NCT07609277Recruiting
Blood test to track giant cell bone tumors
This study uses a simple blood test (TRACP-5b) to help diagnose and monitor giant cell tumors of the bone. Researchers want to see if this test can better track how the tumor responds to treatment or comes back over time.

Creatine Supplements During GLP-1 Weight-Loss Therapy
This trial tests whether adding creatine (a natural muscle-building supplement) helps preserve muscle and strength while taking GLP-1 medications like Ozempic or Wegovy. These medications help with weight loss but can sometimes cause muscle loss, so researchers want to see if creatine prevents that.
Saskatoon, SK - SaskatchewanAges 18 years+ - NCT07627919Recruiting
Strength training and high-protein diet for frail older women
This study tests whether combining resistance exercises with a protein-rich diet can improve muscle strength and overall function in older women with weak muscles. You would attend supervised workouts and follow a specific eating plan for several weeks.

Energy Transfer Therapy for Tennis Elbow Pain
This study tests whether a special energy-based therapy (called capacitive and resistive energy transfer) can reduce pain and improve function in people with tennis elbow—a common overuse injury of the outer elbow. You'll receive this non-invasive treatment and have your progress tracked over time.

Fish oil and weight training for cancer patients' muscle health
This study tests whether taking fish oil supplements combined with progressive weight training exercises can help preserve or build muscle strength in cancer patients undergoing treatment. The goal is to help you maintain physical function and quality of life during cancer care.
Erlangen, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT07643948Recruiting
How HIV Treatment Changes Affect Drug Resistance
This study follows people with HIV whose virus is well-controlled on current medications to understand how switching to a different HIV drug regimen affects the virus's ability to resist those drugs. The goal is to help doctors choose the safest treatment switches.

YS247 Vaccine for Advanced Prostate Cancer
This trial tests a personalized cancer vaccine (YS247) designed to train your immune system to recognize and fight your prostate cancer. It may help slow or stop cancer growth in men whose cancer has spread and stopped responding to standard hormone treatments.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07551947Enrolling by invitation
Insulin Resistance and Heart Rhythm Ablation Success
This study examines whether how your body handles insulin (a hormone that controls blood sugar) affects the success of a new ablation procedure called pulsed field ablation, which treats irregular heart rhythms. Researchers want to understand which patients benefit most from this treatment.
TřinecAges 18 years+ - NCT07545538Enrolling by invitation
Carbohydrate Drink Before Surgery to Help Kids Recover
This study tests whether drinking a special carbohydrate solution before surgery helps children's bodies handle the stress of the operation better and recover more smoothly. The drink may reduce complications related to blood sugar control after surgery.
Yogyakarta, Special Region of YogyakartaAges 2–16 - NCT07176247Enrolling by invitation
Study of aztreonam-avibactam for drug-resistant infections
This trial studies a combination antibiotic called aztreonam-avibactam for treating infections caused by hard-to-treat bacteria, especially those that produce certain enzymes (MBLs). It aims to see how well this medicine works in hospital patients.
ParisAges Any age - NCT07102667Enrolling by invitation
Protein intake for muscle health in older kidney patients
This study tests how much protein older adults with kidney disease and muscle loss should eat to build or maintain muscle. You will follow a protein plan and do simple resistance exercises to see if it helps your strength.
BangkokAges 65 years+ - NCT07058922Enrolling by invitationEarly Phase 1
Beetroot powder for resistant hypertension
This study tests if a powdered beetroot supplement can improve blood flow in the small blood vessels of people with resistant hypertension. If you have hard-to-treat high blood pressure, this might be an option for you.
Rio de Janeiro, Rio de JaneiroAges 18 years+ - NCT07046130Enrolling by invitation
Reducing exercise volume for older adults
This trial tests how reducing the number of exercises in a strength-training program affects muscle strength and size in people aged 60-70. It may help find a simpler way for older adults to stay strong and healthy.
Ribeirão Preto, São PauloAges 60–70 - NCT06459245Enrolling by invitation
Resistance training to prevent arm swelling after breast cancer surgery
This study tests whether doing resistance exercises (like light lifting) can help prevent arm swelling (lymphedema) after breast cancer surgery. If you had lymph nodes removed, you may benefit from learning safe ways to move and strengthen your arm.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06444932Enrolling by invitation
Strength training plus joint mobilization for knee osteoarthritis
This study looks at whether adding resistance (strength) exercises to joint mobilization helps people with knee osteoarthritis move better, feel less pain, and get stronger. You'll do standard joint mobilization plus a program of exercises like leg presses and squats.
IslamabadAges 40–70 - NCT06211387Enrolling by invitation
Stretching plus resistance exercise for knee osteoarthritis
This study tests whether adding a gentle stretching technique to resistance exercises helps reduce knee pain and improve movement in people with knee osteoarthritis. It may be a good option if you have mild-to-moderate knee arthritis and want to strengthen your knees without surgery.
Islamabad, FederalAges 40–65 - NCT06044324Enrolling by invitation
Imaging brain activity in TMS for depression
This trial uses PET scans to see how transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) affects the brain in people whose depression hasn't improved with at least two different antidepressants. It aims to find markers that could predict who might benefit from TMS.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–45 - NCT05795504Enrolling by invitation
Exercise program to improve calcium and vitamin D levels
This trial compares two exercise routines—resistance training versus high-intensity interval training (HIIT)—to see which better improves calcium intake and vitamin D levels in women. You may be able to join if you are 40–45, have low vitamin D, and are not using hormone therapy.
GizaAges 40–45 - NCT05116137Enrolling by invitation
Exercise therapy to build muscle after glioblastoma
This trial studies whether a resistance (strength-building) exercise program can help survivors of glioblastoma keep or increase their muscle mass. If you are able to safely exercise, it may support recovery and overall strength after treatment.

Study how fat changes affect insulin resistance after bariatric surgery
This study looks at how your body’s fat under the skin and inside the abdomen may affect “insulin resistance,” a common problem linked with blood sugar control. It’s for people who are scheduled for bariatric (weight-loss) surgery, to learn more before and after surgery.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for resistance?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,200 recruiting resistance 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 resistance 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 resistance 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.
