Finding noninvasive markers of graft injury after heart transplant
This study looks for noninvasive markers (like blood or urine tests) that can show if a heart transplant is being injured. It aims to make monitoring safer and easier for children and adults with congenital heart disease who have had a transplant.
BolognaAges Up to 44 years - NCT06798909RecruitingPhase 3
CMV prevention in kidney transplant patients
This trial tests two ways to prevent CMV in kidney transplant patients who are at high risk. It compares giving antiviral medicine preemptively (based on regular blood tests) versus giving it as prophylaxis (starting right after transplant). The goal is to see which approach prevents CMV infection better.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06801262Recruiting
New Blood Test to Detect Kidney Transplant Rejection
This trial is testing a new blood test (called TreaT-Assay) to help diagnose acute rejection after a kidney transplant. The goal is to catch rejection earlier and more accurately, so you can get the right treatment faster.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT06802315RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation therapy before stem cell transplant for high-risk blood cancers
This trial tests a precise type of radiation called intensity modulated total marrow irradiation before a stem cell transplant. It aims to destroy cancer cells while reducing side effects for patients with high-risk leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–65 - NCT06805994RecruitingPhase 1
Restoring infant nose bacteria after staph treatment
This study tests whether giving a nasal spray of healthy bacteria to infants can restore good germs in the nose after they receive mupirocin ointment to treat Staph aureus. It aims to bring back a healthy nasal microbiome.
Baltimore, MarylandAges birth–60 years - NCT06807606RecruitingPhase 2
Cord blood transplant after relapse from first transplant
This trial tests a second transplant using two donated umbilical cord blood units for people whose blood cancer returned after a first stem cell transplant. It aims to offer a potential cure for high-risk blood cancers.
Houston, TexasAges Up to 60 years - NCT06810258Recruiting
Biomarkers before and after kidney transplant
This study will collect blood samples from people having a kidney biopsy or a kidney transplant to look for biomarkers (biological signs) that can give doctors more information about kidney health. Participating may help doctors better understand and treat kidney disease in the future.
CréteilAges 18 years+ - NCT06813443Recruiting
Studying cardiomyopathy to find who needs a heart transplant
This study is looking at people with cardiomyopathy to understand which patients are most in need of a heart transplant. By joining, you will help doctors learn more about critical cases and improve care for heart muscle disease.
Bologna, Emilia-Romagna/BolognaAges 12 years+ - NCT06813508Recruiting
Liver cancer and transplant study for MASLD patients
This study looks at factors that predict liver cancer and the need for a liver transplant in people with a liver condition called MASLD (metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease). The goal is to better understand the disease and improve care.
Bologna, BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT06816303Recruiting
Diabetes Treatment in Liver Transplant Patients and Candidates
This study looks at people with type 2 diabetes who are either waiting for a liver transplant or have already had one. Researchers want to understand how diabetes treatment affects outcomes before and after transplant.
Bologna, BOAges 18 years+ - NCT06829719Recruiting
Using TTV virus to manage immune drugs in kidney transplant
This trial uses a virus called TTV to see if it can help doctors safely adjust immunosuppression drugs in kidney transplant patients. It aims to find a way to lower the risk of rejection while reducing side effects.
Bordeaux (France)Ages 18 years+ - NCT06830473Recruiting
Study on predicting kidney transplant rejection in Scotland
This study looks at whether certain tests can help predict or diagnose kidney transplant rejection. If you have had a kidney transplant and are being followed at a main transplant centre in Scotland, you may be able to take part by giving urine samples during your regular check-ups.
EdinburghAges 18–99 - NCT06832410RecruitingPhase 3
Testing VX-880 for type 1 diabetes with a kidney transplant
This trial tests a new treatment called VX-880 for people who have had type 1 diabetes for at least 5 years and have already received a kidney transplant. The goal is to see if VX-880 can improve blood sugar control while you continue your current transplant medications.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18–65 - NCT06838702Recruiting
Liver transplant bone health study
This study collects information from people getting a liver transplant. It looks at bone health and mineral levels in the body to better understand how they change after transplant.
Bologna, BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT06868823Recruiting

Prague, Czech RepublicAges 18 years+ - NCT06874296Recruiting
Testing machine perfusion for declined livers to shorten transplant wait time
This trial tests whether using a machine to keep donated livers healthy (normothermic machine perfusion) can allow more people to receive a transplant sooner. It is for patients who are already on the waiting list for a liver and have a moderately severe MELD score (25 or less).
Hamburg, Free and Hanseatic City of HamburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06877169Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for transplant?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,500 recruiting transplant 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 transplant 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 transplant 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.
