We’re tracking 10 recruiting rheumatoid arthritis studies with a site in Ohio — including Phase 1, Phase 2 and Phase 3 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Ohio
- NCT06972446RecruitingPhase 2
Study of targeted therapies for rheumatoid arthritis
This trial tests different targeted treatments for people with rheumatoid arthritis who have tried one or two biologic or targeted synthetic drugs but still have symptoms. You need to be taking a stable dose of methotrexate.
Middleburg Heights, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07137598RecruitingPhase 2
A study of RO7790121 for moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis
This study tests a new drug, RO7790121, for people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have not gotten better with or could not tolerate common treatments like TNF inhibitors or JAK inhibitors. It aims to see if the drug is safe and can help reduce joint pain and swelling.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT03816345RecruitingPhase 1
Nivolumab for advanced cancer with autoimmune conditions
This Phase 1 study tests nivolumab, an immunotherapy “anti-cancer accelerator,” in people with advanced cancer who also have an autoimmune disorder. It aims to see if nivolumab can be given safely and whether it may help shrink or control cancer.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05883371Recruiting
IMPACT autoimmune study registry for people on biologic medicines
This study is a registry that collects health information from adults with certain autoimmune conditions who are currently using (or have been recommended) biologic or DMARD medicines. It may help researchers better understand these diseases and how treatments affect people over time.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–70 - NCT05603728Recruiting
Follow-up study for Exactech shoulder implants after surgery
This study follows people who get (or already had) a shoulder replacement to see how the implant is doing over time. It may help improve future care by tracking long-term performance and safety.
Akron, OhioAges 21 years+ - NCT06570798RecruitingPhase 2
Testing Two Drugs for Lupus and Rheumatoid Arthritis
This trial tests two study drugs, inebilizumab and blinatumomab, for people with lupus (SLE) or rheumatoid arthritis (RA) that hasn't gotten better with standard treatments. It focuses on those with active disease, especially lupus-related kidney problems.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–75 - NCT03404778Enrolling by invitation
Collecting data on reverse shoulder implants for weak rotator cuff
This study collects real-world information about a reverse shoulder implant used when the rotator cuff is badly damaged. It may help improve how these implants are chosen and how well they work for pain relief and improving arm function.
New Albany, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04692493RecruitingPhase 3
Testing two treatment paths for active rheumatoid arthritis
This Phase 3 study compares two ways to treat active rheumatoid arthritis: a TNF-blocking biologic versus a targeted pill treatment. It may help people who are not doing well on (or cannot tolerate) certain biologic therapies to find a better, more practical option.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05587244Enrolling by invitation
Hip liner study for people getting a hip replacement
This study looks at a specific type of hip replacement liner (the part inside the hip joint) and how well it works after surgery. You might be eligible if you’re planning a one-sided hip replacement and don’t have certain infection, bone, or health problems that could affect healing.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–80 - NCT05548972Enrolling by invitation
Follow-up study of a hip replacement to improve implant wear
This study checks how well a specific hip replacement bearing surface (called dual mobility with Vivacit-E or Longevity) performs over time in real-world patients. It may help people by tracking long-term safety and performance to guide better hip replacement choices.

What taking part in a rheumatoid arthritis study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there rheumatoid arthritis clinical trials in Ohio?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 10 recruiting rheumatoid arthritis studies with a site in Ohio, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a rheumatoid arthritis study in Ohio?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Ohio to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Ohio, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a rheumatoid arthritis trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
