Foot Arch Study in Women With Lipedema
This study looks at the arch of the foot and how the foot works in women with lipedema, a condition where fat builds up unevenly, usually in the legs. Participants will have their existing foot X-rays reviewed to compare foot structure between those with and without lipedema.

Study of C1-inhibitor test for hereditary angioedema diagnosis
This study checks if a blood test measuring C1-inhibitor function can help diagnose hereditary angioedema (HAE), a rare condition that causes painful swelling episodes. If you or a close family member have had swelling without rash or itching that lasts 1-5 days and doesn't get better with allergy meds, this trial may be for you.

Common questions
- How many genetic & congenital clinical trials are recruiting?
- Clin2 is tracking 3,762 recruiting medical genetics studies from the U.S. registry right now, out of 5,482 we cover in this area in total.
- What does “Genetic & congenital” cover here?
- Inherited and congenital conditions present from birth or written into the genes. We group each study into genetic & congenital based on the conditions it studies, so you can scan the whole therapeutic area at once and drill into a specific condition.
- How do I find a genetic & congenital trial near me?
- Use the search to filter genetic & congenital studies by location and eligibility. Every Clin2 trial page explains the criteria in plain English and offers a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read — the study team makes the final decision.
