Recruiting studies
- NCT05545384RecruitingPhase 3
Immediate vs delayed azathioprine or rituximab for children with anti-MOG attacks
This Phase 3 trial tests whether starting anti-inflammatory treatment right away is better than waiting, using either azathioprine or rituximab, for children with anti-MOG antibody–related acute demyelinating episodes. It may help reduce future attacks and disability.
BesançonAges 6–17 - NCT04654988RecruitingPhase 4
Immunosuppression study for active myocarditis or inflammatory cardiomyopathy
This Phase 4 study tests whether weakening the immune system (immunosuppression) works better for people with active myocarditis or inflammatory cardiomyopathy. It includes extra heart tests—two heart muscle biopsies and two heart MRI scans—to confirm the diagnosis and guide treatment.
WarsawAges 18–65 - NCT05040464RecruitingPhase 3
Azathioprine or methotrexate added to adalimumab for Crohn’s
This trial compares two medicine options (azathioprine vs methotrexate) when added to adalimumab to treat active Crohn’s disease. It may help determine which add-on works better for people whose Crohn’s is still active despite standard treatments or who can’t take them.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT05349006RecruitingPhase 3
Azathioprine for first attack in MOG antibody disease
This Phase 3 trial studies whether azathioprine can help prevent problems after a first attack of MOG antibody–related inflammation of the brain/spinal cord. It’s for adults with a recent first episode and confirmed MOG antibodies.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT07235904RecruitingPhase 4
Mirikizumab vs standard treatment for newly diagnosed ulcerative colitis
This trial tests if starting with the stronger drug mirikizumab (top-down therapy) works better than the usual treatment with azathioprine for people newly diagnosed with moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis. It aims to see which approach controls inflammation and improves symptoms faster.
KielAges 18–75 - NCT04469842RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Long-acting tacrolimus after lung transplant
This early-stage study tests a long-acting form of tacrolimus (a common anti-rejection medicine) soon after lung transplant. It aims to see if it can be used safely and effectively for people receiving lung transplants at Vanderbilt (VUMC).
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07168161RecruitingPhase 3
BDB-001 for ANCA vasculitis (GPA/MPA) trial
This trial tests a new drug called BDB-001 for people with a type of blood vessel inflammation (ANCA vasculitis, specifically GPA or MPA). It aims to see if adding BDB-001 to standard treatment can help control the disease better.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07616154RecruitingPhase 2
Gene-Matched Family Stem Cell Transplant for Severe Sickle Cell
This trial tests whether a stem cell transplant from a partially gene-matched family member can cure severe sickle cell disease in children and young adults. The transplant uses a new approach that may work even when a perfectly matched sibling isn't available, and it might help patients whose sickle cell is causing serious complications like strokes, organ damage, or frequent pain crises.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Up to 22 years - NCT03414502RecruitingPhase 3
Predictors of Response to DMARDs in Rheumatoid Arthritis
This trial studies rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients starting or adjusting DMARD medicines and looks for signs that predict who responds best. It may help doctors choose more effective treatment sooner.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 19 years+ - NCT03681652Recruiting
Study of recovery outcomes after Crohn’s surgery in children
This study looks at outcomes after children with Crohn’s disease have part of the bowel removed (ileo-cecal resection). It may help doctors improve post-surgery care, especially for preventing flare-ups in the months after surgery.
Petah Tikva, IsraelAges 6–18 - NCT04182984Recruiting
Compare immunosuppressant medicines for eye-only myasthenia gravis
This real-world study looks at how different immunosuppressant medicines work for people with non-thymoma ocular myasthenia gravis (eye symptoms due to MG). It may help doctors understand which treatments control symptoms best in everyday care.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–75 - NCT05965284RecruitingPhase 4
Telitacicept to help keep ANCA vasculitis in remission
This trial studies telitacicept to see if it can help keep ANCA-associated vasculitis in remission after initial treatment with steroids and rituximab. It may help prevent future flare-ups, while closely watching for side effects.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT06213857RecruitingPhase 2
Silymarin for ulcerative colitis
This study tests whether silymarin (an extract from milk thistle) can help treat ulcerative colitis when added to your usual treatment. It may reduce inflammation and oxidative stress in the colon.
AsyutAges 18–65 - NCT07138898RecruitingPhase 2
Managing immune medications for shoulder replacement in rheumatology patients
This trial tests two ways of managing your immunosuppressant medication around the time of shoulder replacement surgery. The goal is to see if one approach leads to fewer infections while still controlling your rheumatic disease.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06941376RecruitingPhase 2
Medication study for relapsing polychondritis
This trial tests if a type of medication that adjusts the immune system can help control symptoms of relapsing polychondritis. It is for people with mild to moderate active disease that needs more treatment.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07271069Recruiting
Ozanimod vs azathioprine for steroid-dependent ulcerative colitis
This study tests whether ozanimod works better than azathioprine in people with ulcerative colitis who need high-dose steroids. Both groups also stay on steroids. The goal is to see if either drug helps you reduce or stop steroids while keeping symptoms under control.
Chiba, ChibaAges 18 years+ - NCT02939573RecruitingPhase 2
Study of medicines for skin-only vasculitis flares
This Phase 2 trial tests different medicines to calm active skin vasculitis and prevent flare-ups. It’s for people whose vasculitis mainly affects the skin, not major organs like kidneys or the brain.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials studying Azathioprine?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 17 recruiting studies that include Azathioprine, drawn from the U.S. registry and rewritten for real people so you can see what each is testing and who it's for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a Azathioprine 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 Azathioprine 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 Azathioprine or a specific trial is right for you.
