Early pregnancy study for placental health at Oxford
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how the body supports pregnancy in the early weeks and whether problems with that support can lead to complications. By tracking pregnancies from the start, researchers hope to find ways to predict and prevent issues like poor placental function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at how the placenta works in healthy pregnancies and in pregnancies with conditions like pre-eclampsia, gestational diabetes, or fetal growth restriction. It may help find new ways to detect or treat these problems.
This study looks at how cells in the placenta handle stress in pregnancies with complications like preeclampsia or poor fetal growth. It aims to understand why some placentas don't work well, which could lead to better treatments.
This trial studies ways to lower the risk of pre-eclampsia (dangerous high blood pressure in pregnancy) in women who are having a first pregnancy through IVF/ICSI or who have PCOS. It’s aimed at people considered higher risk for pre-eclampsia.
This trial follows women who have had preeclampsia to learn more about their health after pregnancy. It collects blood and tissue samples to find markers that could improve future care.
This study looks at factors related to pre-eclampsia (a pregnancy blood-pressure condition) in people who are more than 10 weeks pregnant. It may help improve early understanding and care for future pregnancies.
This study collects placenta tissue (or tissue from an abortion) from women at the Grenoble University Hospital to better understand pregnancy problems linked to the placenta. By participating, you help researchers learn more about conditions that affect pregnant women and their babies.
