Recruiting studies
- NCT06345547Recruiting
Muscle mass ultrasound study in cirrhosis patients
This study uses ultrasound to measure muscle mass in people with cirrhosis. It aims to understand muscle changes and their link to health outcomes.
Edegem, AntwerpenAges 18 years+ - NCT06320782Enrolling by invitation
Diet and belly fat study for overweight adults
This study tests how different diets affect belly fat, thigh muscle, and heart health in people who are overweight. It might help you find a way to eat that improves your health.
Recife, PernambucoAges 20 years+ - NCT06296875Recruiting
Krill oil for muscle health in older adults
This study tests whether taking a daily krill oil supplement can help improve muscle health in people aged 65 and older. It aims to find out if the natural omega-3s in krill oil can slow age-related muscle changes.
GlasgowAges 65–90 - NCT06156774Recruiting
Sarcopenia and frailty in lymphoma patients getting CAR-T therapy
This trial looks at how muscle loss (sarcopenia) and overall health affect outcomes in people with B-cell lymphoma who are receiving CAR-T cell therapy. It may help doctors better support patients before and after treatment.
AlessandriaAges 18 years+ - NCT06079021Recruiting
Study of a blood filter for sudden liver failure
This trial tests a device called CytoSorb that filters the blood to reduce inflammation in patients with sudden worsening of chronic liver disease. It may help support organ function and recovery.
Edegem, AntwerpAges 18 years+ - NCT06040125Recruiting
Exercise for frailty and muscle loss in men with prostate cancer
This trial tests a supervised exercise program to see if it can reduce frailty and muscle loss in men with metastatic prostate cancer who are on hormone therapy. It may help you become stronger and feel better during treatment.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05884138Recruiting
Amino acid supplement and exercise for people on dialysis
This trial studies whether taking essential amino acids along with exercise can improve muscle function in people receiving hemodialysis. It may help you build or maintain strength and mobility.
Daejeon, South KoreaAges 20–80 - NCT05726747Recruiting
Quality-of-life study for fluid buildup and muscle loss
This trial studies people with recurring fluid buildup in the belly (ascites) and looks at how treatments or supportive care affect quality of life and muscle strength. It may help researchers better understand which approaches improve day-to-day well-being when ascites keeps coming back.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05700058Recruiting
Testing how different Super-whey doses affect muscle growth
This study checks how different doses of “Super-whey” influence muscle protein building in adults. It may help figure out the best whey dose for building muscle, especially in older adults.
DerbyAges 65–85 - NCT05477277Recruiting
MRI testing during liver transplant evaluation
This study looks at whether having an MRI scan during liver transplant planning helps predict who may have worse outcomes or higher risk of death. It focuses on adults with severe liver disease who are already being considered for a transplant.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT02734069Recruiting
Testing whether muscle mass affects carboplatin side effects
This study looks at how your body’s “fat-free mass” (mostly muscle and organs) may change the dose of carboplatin and the risk of chemotherapy side effects. It’s for people with advanced lung cancer who are starting treatment with carboplatin plus paclitaxel for the first time.
Mexico CityAges 18 years+ - NCT04717869Recruiting
Studying frailty support for ICU patients
This trial looks at ways to help “frailty” (low strength and resilience) in people staying in intensive care units. It mainly enrolls adults who expect to be in the ICU for more than 24 hours, and it tries to avoid people whose mobility problems have other causes.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03998202Recruiting
Study of chemotherapy side effects in older colorectal cancer patients
This study looks at how chemotherapy and immunotherapy affect the body in older adults with colorectal cancer, especially early side effects. It may help researchers understand why some people lose strength and how to better predict and manage treatment toxicity.
Millville, DelawareAges 60 years+ - NCT02978521Recruiting
Pulmonary rehab program for advanced lung cancer
This trial studies whether a structured breathing and activity program (pulmonary rehabilitation) can help people with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer. It may help improve breathing and daily function alongside standard cancer treatment.
Mexico City, Mexico CityAges 18–70

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for sarcopenia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 182 recruiting sarcopenia 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 sarcopenia 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 sarcopenia 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.
