Study for difficult IgA vasculitis with gut symptoms
This study looks at treatment strategies for children with IgA vasculitis (also called Henoch-Schönlein purpura) when it mainly affects the stomach and intestines and symptoms do not improve with standard steroid dosing. It may help find better ways to control the illness early and prevent serious complications.
ShanghaiAges 2–16 - NCT03667027Recruiting
Study of breathing muscle and lung changes during transplant planning
This trial studies how the diaphragm (your main breathing muscle) and lung/airway tissue behave in people who are being supported until they can get a lung transplant. The results may help doctors better understand breathing failure and improve transplant care.
TorontoAges 18 years+ - NCT03678194Recruiting
Smartphone app tool for doctors managing daily depression
This trial tests a smartphone app that helps doctors manage depression in everyday life. It may help improve how care is tracked and adjusted soon after starting antidepressant treatment.
BordeauxAges 18–65 - NCT03728166Recruiting
Computer guidance to prevent blood clots after hospital stay
This trial tests a computerized tool that helps doctors decide who needs prevention medicines to lower the risk of blood clots after a hospital stay. It may help reduce preventable clotting risk for people who are less mobile and have added risk factors.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 40 years+ - NCT03737786Recruiting
Sedation with collateral support for stroke clot removal
This trial tests a specific sedation approach, along with support during the procedure, for people having emergency clot removal (mechanical thrombectomy) for a certain type of acute ischemic stroke. It may help make the procedure safer and more effective by improving how patients are managed during endovascular treatment.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–110 - NCT03890224Recruiting
Testing breathing support needs in COPD with high CO2
This trial studies how different breathing support strategies affect people with COPD who have high carbon dioxide (CO2) in their blood. It may help care teams choose safer respiratory support after a breathing machine is stopped.
Paris, Île-de-France RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT03891160Recruiting
Using heart scans to plan a support pump in children
This trial is testing a way to help doctors assess babies and children with congenital heart disease and heart failure before placing a temporary heart support pump. It may help improve planning by using heart scans to decide who needs support and how to prepare.
Gainesville, FloridaAges Any age - NCT03892993Recruiting
Decision aid for medullary thyroid cancer treatment choices
This study tests a patient-and-caregiver decision guide to help you decide when to start or stop a new cancer drug, join a clinical trial, or continue active surveillance. It aims to make tough choices feel clearer and more supported.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03901924Recruiting
Ventilator settings to protect the breathing muscle
This study looks at a specific way to control a breathing machine (ventilator) to help prevent weakness of the diaphragm, the main breathing muscle, in newly intubated adults. You might be considered if you are newly on a ventilator for less than 36 hours and certain other conditions are not present.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06516653Recruiting
Study of VasQ implant for new dialysis fistula support
This study tests a small mesh support called VasQ that is placed around your new fistula to help it heal and stay open longer. It is for people who are getting a new fistula for dialysis access.

Test of a decision support tool for children with PARDS
This trial tests a computer “decision support” tool to help the care team manage treatment for children with PARDS who are just starting a breathing machine. It may help clinicians choose care steps and potentially support safer, more effective breathing management during the first days of ventilation.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 1 month–18 years - NCT04117230Recruiting
Registry for heart support devices after severe circulation problems
This study is a registry that collects information from adults who need a temporary heart circulation support device such as VA-ECMO or an Impella pump (or newer similar devices). It may help doctors better understand which patients benefit most and how these devices are used in real life.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT04158479Recruiting
Registry for people on ECMO life support
This registry collects information about people who are placed on ECMO, a heart-lung machine used to support breathing and/or circulation. It may help doctors better understand who benefits and how to manage ECMO in the future.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT04183660Recruiting
MOBYBOX monitoring study for temporary heart-lung support
This is a post-market “real-world” monitoring study for a heart-lung machine (extracorporeal cardiopulmonary support/ECMO) used during very serious heart and/or lung failure. It aims to track safety and performance in patients who need rescue breathing or circulation support.

- How do I know if I qualify for a support 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 support 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.
