How this directory works
The data comes from ClinicalTrials.gov, the US federal registry for clinical research. We pull active and pre-active GLP-1 clinical trials (semaglutide, tirzepatide, liraglutide, retatrutide, survodutide, orforglipron, cagrisema and related molecules) plus studies of GLP-1 effects on conditions like obesity, type 2 diabetes, MASH, sleep apnea, CKD, and cardiovascular disease.
Every Monday we check these listings against ClinicalTrials.gov. Before you contact a site, click through to its registry record and confirm the clinical trial is still recruiting. For the wider picture on getting a GLP-1 at no cost, see how to get a GLP-1 for free.
How to enroll in a clinical trial
- Find a clinical trial below or take the matching quiz. Read the eligibility criteria. The key inclusion and exclusion items are the ones the trial coordinator will check first.
- Find a site location near you. We list every US site with city, state, and contact information when the sponsor publishes it.
- Contact the site directly using the phone or email on the trial page. Tell them you read about the trial on GLP Chart and you want to be screened.
- Screening typically involves a phone call, a clinic visit, and sometimes blood work. Most clinical trials cover the cost of screening and trial-related medical care. Some sites compensate participants for their time; the trial coordinator explains what each site offers.
- If you do not qualify for the trial you contacted, ask the site coordinator about other clinical trials they run. Many sites run multiple GLP-1 studies at once and can route you to a better fit.
If a trial is not a fit and you need treatment now, the GLP-1 cost guide lays out what every legitimate cash-pay path costs at maintenance dose, starting at $149 a month for compounded semaglutide.
A few legal notes
GLP Chart is not affiliated with any of the sponsors or sites listed. We do not enroll patients in clinical trials, and we are not paid for clinical-trial referrals. If that changes, this page will say so on the day it does.
Participating in a clinical trial is a serious medical decision. Talk to your existing healthcare provider before enrolling. Trial coordinators are required by federal regulation to walk you through informed consent before you join.
