Recruiting studies
- NCT04246970Enrolling by invitation
Training program before and after liver transplant
This trial studies a structured exercise and training program before and after liver transplantation to help people recover better. You may be able to benefit if you’re getting an elective liver transplant and can safely participate in the training plan.
Valencia, ValenciaAges 18 years+ - NCT04195503Enrolling by invitation
Liver transplant for stable advanced bile duct cancer
This trial looks at liver transplant for people with advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (a bile duct cancer inside the liver) when the cancer is not safely removable and stays controlled. It may help some patients live longer and with better quality of life by replacing the diseased liver—if strict safety and disease-stability requirements are met.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05322850RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Engineered donor stem cell transplant for childhood blood cancers
This trial tests a new way to prepare donor stem cells before a transplant for children and young adults with blood cancers. The goal is to make the transplant safer and more effective, potentially reducing complications like graft-versus-host disease.
Gainesville, FloridaAges Up to 50 years - NCT07015242RecruitingPhase 2
Liso-cel as first treatment for primary CNS lymphoma
This study tests an investigational cell therapy called liso-cel for people with primary central nervous system lymphoma who cannot have a stem cell transplant and have already responded to initial chemotherapy. The goal is to see if liso-cel can help control the disease better and possibly improve outcomes.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT05564390RecruitingPhase 2
MyeloMATCH screening to match you to AML or MDS treatment
This study screens people with newly suspected acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) to see which treatment approach fits best—either a specific study treatment or standard care. It may help by directing you to the right option and by sharing your blood/bone marrow samples for research.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07794514Recruiting
Comparing two drugs for liver graft-versus-host disease
This trial compares two medications, belumosudil and ruxolitinib, to see which one works better for a type of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) that affects the liver after a stem cell transplant. GVHD happens when donor cells attack the patient's body, and this study focuses on patients whose liver GVHD has not improved with steroids or has gotten worse. The study aims to find a more effective treatment to control this condition.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 12 years+ - NCT06875232Enrolling by invitation
Comparing CT and MRI scans for live liver donors
This study looks at how well CT scans and MRI scans (MRCP) show the blood vessels in the liver before a living donor liver donation. It aims to find out which scan is better at planning the surgery.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18–60 - NCT07791849Recruiting
Comparing two stomach protectors after stem cell transplant
This study compares two medications, GMPA and PPI, that protect the stomach during a stem cell transplant. It aims to see which one is better at preventing stomach problems and reducing the risk of a complication called graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD), where donor cells attack the patient's body.
HangzhouAges 12–70 - NCT07791576RecruitingPhase 2
Custom dosing of anti-thymocyte globulin for stem cell transplant
This trial tests whether giving anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) based on a person's own body chemistry can reduce side effects and improve outcomes in stem cell transplants. It is for people with certain blood cancers who are in their first or second remission.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 14–65 - NCT05610787Enrolling by invitation
Testing a device that helps move an EXCOR pediatric heart pump
This trial studies an “active driving” system that controls the EXCOR pediatric heart pump. It’s meant for children who need a heart pump as a bridge to heart transplantation, to help the pump work more safely and effectively.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Up to 21 years - NCT02127398RecruitingPhase 2
Fecal transplants for hard-to-treat C. difficile infection
This Phase 2 study tests whether placing stool from a healthy donor into your gut can treat repeated, hard-to-control C. difficile colitis. It may help restore healthy gut bacteria and reduce future flare-ups.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07219043RecruitingPhase 2
Felzartamab for kidney transplant patients with inflammation
This trial tests a drug called felzartamab to see if it can help people who have a type of kidney inflammation after a transplant, even without donor-specific antibodies. It might offer a new treatment option for those who are not getting better on their own.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18–74 - NCT07605416RecruitingPhase 2
Testing New Drug Combination for Plasma Cell Leukemia
This study tests a new combination of medicines to treat plasma cell leukemia, a rare blood cancer. The trial aims to help patients newly diagnosed with this condition by using drugs that work against cancer cells in different ways.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–80 - NCT06717958RecruitingPhase 2
Ivosidenib after stem cell transplant for IDH1-mutated AML or MDS
This trial tests whether taking ivosidenib after a stem cell transplant can help prevent leukemia from coming back in people with a specific gene change called IDH1. It may be an option if you have AML or MDS with that mutation and are recovering from transplant.
AachenAges 18–75 - NCT04684368RecruitingPhase 2
New treatment study for children and young adults with NGGCT brain tumors
This Phase 2 study tests a new treatment approach for certain brain tumors called NGGCT in children and young adults. It may help improve outcomes by targeting tumors in specific brain locations and using tumor marker tests to guide care.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 3–29 - NCT06532890Recruiting
Using microRNAs to personalize heart transplant medicines in children
This study is looking at heart transplant children (up to age 18) to see if measuring tiny molecules called microRNAs in the blood can help doctors personalize anti-rejection medicines. It aims to improve how we prevent rejection while reducing side effects.
Aurora, ColoradoAges Up to 18 years - NCT03126916RecruitingPhase 3
Testing added therapy for high-risk neuroblastoma in children
This Phase 3 study tests whether adding either a targeted drug (lorlatinib) or a radioactive treatment (131I-MIBG) to intensive chemotherapy improves outcomes for children with high-risk neuroblastoma. It may help by aiming at tumor cells more directly alongside standard treatment.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 12 months–30 years - NCT01889381RecruitingPhase 2
Transplanting facial and jaw bone using donor tissue
This trial studies a special surgery to replace part of the skull, face, and jaw using donor tissue. It also tests medicines to help your body accept the transplant, aiming to restore function and appearance after serious injury.

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.
