- NCT03083184RecruitingPhase 3
Ethanol lock solution to prevent catheter infections
This Phase 3 study tests whether a medicine-filled “lock” put into a dialysis catheter can lower the risk of infections. It is meant for people on regular dialysis with a tunnelled catheter who already have it in place.
Clermont-FerrandAges 18 years+ - NCT03415828Recruiting
Testing ethanol gel versus steroid gel for low back disc pain
This study compares two gels put on or into the painful disc area: an ethanol gel versus a steroid gel. It is for adults with long-lasting low back disc pain that did not improve with usual non-surgical care.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT05639907Recruiting
Miniscrew study comparing two surface coatings
This study tests whether orthodontic miniscrews with one special coating cause less gum tissue inflammation and stay stable better than miniscrews treated with ethanol. It may help improve how well miniscrews work and how healthy the tissue around them stays over follow-up visits.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 12 years+ - NCT07299110Recruiting
Whey vs. egg protein for ammonia levels in liver cirrhosis
This trial compares how whey protein and egg white protein affect ammonia levels in people with cirrhosis caused by alcohol. The goal is to see which protein source is safer for your liver.
New DelhiAges 18–70 - NCT05511246RecruitingPhase 2
Alcohol injection for fast heart rhythm
This trial tests injecting ethanol (alcohol) into a vein near the heart to treat a dangerous fast heart rhythm called ventricular tachycardia. It may be an option for people who have an implanted defibrillator and have not found relief with other treatments.
Houston, TexasAges 18–85 - NCT05906511RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Study how THC levels change in older adults
This early study measures how a THC dose (by mouth or vaporized form) moves through the body and how it affects the body’s responses. It mainly looks at safety and how THC behaves in older adults, including people who have used cannabis before.
West Haven, ConnecticutAges 65 years+ - NCT04529785Recruiting
Tested added ethanol vein treatment during repeat atrial fibrillation ablation
This trial compares two ways to help stop atrial fibrillation during a repeat procedure: standard vein isolation only versus standard isolation plus an added medicine (ethanol) into the vein of Marshall. It aims to see whether the added step improves results when atrial fibrillation returns after a previous successful treatment.
Bruges, Please SelectAges 18 years+ - NCT05962775Recruiting
Ethanol treatment before IVF for endometrioma removal
This trial tests whether injecting ethanol into endometriomas (benign ovarian cysts from endometriosis) before IVF can improve fertility outcomes. It may be considered if you have endometriomas within a specific size range and no major issues that affect IVF success.
AdanaAges 18–40 - NCT06383975Recruiting
Two new treatments for AF that returned after first procedure
This trial tests two new treatments for persistent atrial fibrillation that came back after an initial procedure. One uses a targeted chemical injection, the other uses a special energy field to re-isolate the veins involved.
BrugesAges 18 years+ - NCT06747364Recruiting
Blood test for recent alcohol use
This study looks at a blood test that may tell how much alcohol a person has had recently, even after they've stopped drinking. It may help doctors better understand drinking patterns and health risks.
Denton, TexasAges 21 years+ - NCT06935045Recruiting
Drinking alcohol in hot weather study
This trial looks at how drinking alcohol affects your body when it's hot outside. It may help us understand the risks of drinking in the heat.
Thunder Bay, OntarioAges 19 years+ - NCT07004959Recruiting
Comparing two treatments for ovarian endometriomas
This trial tests if a less invasive ultrasound-guided ethanol injection works as well as laparoscopic surgery for treating ovarian endometriomas (fluid-filled cysts from endometriosis). It may offer a treatment option with fewer side effects.
Marseille, FranceAges 18–45 - NCT07095959Recruiting
Ethanol vein infusion plus pulsed field ablation for paroxysmal AF
This study compares two treatments for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF that comes and goes): using pulsed electric field ablation alone versus combining it with ethanol infusion into a specific vein. The goal is to see which approach works better for first-time ablation patients.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06559878Enrolling by invitation
Liver Mitochondria Study in Fatty Liver Disease
This study looks at how the liver's mitochondria (the energy powerhouses of cells) work in people with fatty liver disease. Participants will have an MRI scan and receive a small amount of fat solution through an IV to see how the liver processes fat.
Helsinki, UusimaaAges 18–75 - NCT03294460RecruitingPhase 1
Genetic study of smoking and alcohol response in healthy adults
This Phase 1 study tests whether certain genes linked to nicotine receptors affect how people feel and respond to alcohol. It also compares alcohol responses in smokers versus non-smokers using brain imaging (MRI) and alcohol-earning/reward tasks, aiming to better understand why some people may crave alcohol more than others.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 21–60 - NCT07625358Recruiting
How Caffeine and Alcohol Affect Your Eyes
This study measures how caffeine and alcohol change the size of your pupils (the dark circles in your eyes). Researchers want to understand how these common substances affect your eye's natural responses, which could help with vision and neurological research.
SingaporeAges 30–50 - NCT06819189RecruitingPhase 1
How a gene affects alcohol response
This study looks at how a specific gene (ZIP8) affects the way people respond to alcohol. You'll have MRI brain scans and may be given alcohol to see how your brain reacts. It's for healthy right-handed adults of European ancestry who have some drinking experience.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 21–60 - NCT03883269RecruitingPhase 4
Tests topical antibiotics’ anti-inflammatory effect in acne
This trial studies whether putting antibiotic creams on mild-to-moderate facial acne reduces inflammation. It may help answer whether topical erythromycin or clindamycin can improve acne-related redness and swelling.
LeidenAges 18–45 - NCT05427435Recruiting
Testing alcohol treatment of a heart vein during atrial fibrillation ablation
This study tests whether applying a small amount of alcohol to a specific heart vein (“vein of Marshall”) is safe and feasible during a standard atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. It may help improve AF treatment, but the goal here is mainly to see if the approach can be done safely in the right patients.
PessacAges 18 years+ - NCT06118580RecruitingPhase 2
Alcohol and aggression brain study
This study looks at how alcohol affects the brain in people with a history of aggression or alcohol use disorder. You may be able to join if you're a right-handed adult who drinks regularly and fits one of the specific groups being studied.
Columbus, OhioAges 21–55 - NCT06257771Recruiting
Alcohol and gastric sleeve surgery study
This study looks at how alcohol affects people who have had gastric sleeve surgery (a type of weight loss surgery) compared to those who haven't. It may help explain if surgery changes how your body processes alcohol.
Urbana, IllinoisAges 21–64 - NCT06363604Recruiting
Alcohol injection with ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation
This trial is testing a new approach to treat persistent atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat) by combining standard catheter ablation with a special injection of alcohol (ethanol) into certain heart veins. It may help people whose symptoms haven't improved with medication.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT06502834RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a probiotic supplement for overweight people

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials studying Ethanol?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 32 recruiting studies that include Ethanol, 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 Ethanol 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 Ethanol 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 Ethanol or a specific trial is right for you.
