You can search for clinical trials by type and location, eg, breast implants and New York. Do a focused search by disease, location, sponsor or treatment or browse by condition, sponsor or status. If you click on “condition” you can find out what studies are recruiting participants ' with information listed either alphabetically or by disease heading. Disease headings include bacterial, digestive, immune and connective tissue. A search by funding organizations, ie, sponsors, turns up federal agencies such as the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Department of Veterans Affairs, as well as 272 private corporations. The lists include trials no longer recruiting patients.
