BCAA vs. Rifaximin to Prevent Recurrent Hepatic Encephalopathy
This trial compares two treatments—BCAA supplements and rifaximin—to see which is better at preventing another episode of confusion or coma in people with cirrhosis who have already had one. If you qualify, you would receive one of these treatments for several months.

Amino acid loss during kidney dialysis in the ICU
This study looks at how many amino acids (building blocks of protein) are lost during continuous kidney dialysis in patients in the intensive care unit after surgery. It may help doctors better understand how to support nutrition in these patients.
Vienna, State of ViennaAges 18 years+ - NCT06687343Recruiting
Do amino acids help maintain muscle in young men?
This study looks at how certain amino acids (building blocks of protein) help maintain muscle mass. Healthy young men eat a special diet and have their muscle protein production measured to see if non-essential amino acids matter for keeping muscles strong.
MaastrichtAges 18–35 - NCT06874400Recruiting
Dairy vs. plant-based drinks in teens and older adults
This study compares how dairy milk and plant-based alternatives affect health in teenagers and adults aged 60-75. It tests if switching to plant-based options changes metabolism or overall well-being.
Toronto, OntarioAges 14–75 - NCT06878664RecruitingPhase 3
Lu177-Dotatate vs standard care for slow-growing midgut neuroendocrine tumors
This trial tests whether a radioactive drug called Lu177-Dotatate (PRRT) works better than usual care for people with slow-growing, advanced midgut neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). It may help shrink or slow the growth of tumors when you also get somatostatin analog therapy.
Caen, CaenAges 18 years+ - NCT06965699Recruiting
Plant-based protein sauce for older adults
This study tests whether a plant-based, high-protein sauce can improve amino acid levels and help older adults feel fuller after eating. It may help with maintaining muscle health and appetite.

- How do I know if I qualify for a Amino Acid trial?
- Each study lists its own eligibility criteria — rules about condition, age, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Is Amino Acid an approved treatment?
- A drug being studied in a trial may be investigational (still being tested) or already approved and being studied for a new use. Each study page explains what phase it's in. Clin2 does not provide medical advice — talk with your doctor about whether Amino Acid or a specific trial is right for you.
