Recruiting studies
- NCT06434272Recruiting
Blood flow restriction exercise after Achilles tendon rupture
This study tests whether adding blood flow restriction (using a special cuff) to standard rehabilitation exercises can help people with a torn Achilles tendon recover better. It might be an option if you recently ruptured your Achilles and started treatment within 72 hours.
Aarhus NAges 18 years+ - NCT05614908Enrolling by invitation
Testing outcomes after non-surgical Achilles tendon rupture care
This trial looks at how well people do after an Achilles tendon rupture when they are treated without surgery. It may help improve recovery guidance for others by comparing outcomes based on how care is followed.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT07130357Recruiting
Collagen scaffold for Achilles tendon repair
This study tests whether adding a special collagen scaffold during surgery helps heal a torn Achilles tendon better than standard repair alone. The scaffold is made from cow collagen and is placed over the repair to support healing.
Shatin, New TerritoriesAges 18 years+ - NCT06009978Recruiting
Added muscle stimulation after Achilles tendon rupture
This trial tests whether adding neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) to standard care helps people recover better after an Achilles tendon rupture. It might improve strength and function in the leg.
Mölndal, VGregionAges 18–65 - NCT07131787Recruiting
Blood flow restriction training after Achilles tendon repair
This study tests whether adding blood flow restriction training to standard rehab helps your Achilles tendon and calf muscle heal better after surgery. You would do exercises with a special cuff that gently limits blood flow to your leg.
Ghent, East-FlandersAges 18 years+ - NCT06723639Recruiting
Restoring the torn Achilles tendon
This trial is testing a new way to repair a completely torn Achilles tendon. It uses MRI scans to make sure the repair is as good as possible, aiming for better healing and recovery.
Copenhagen, CapitalAges 18–67 - NCT06886815Recruiting
Nerve block for Achilles tendon repair surgery
This trial tests if a nerve block in the back of the knee improves pain control after surgery to repair a torn Achilles tendon. It may help you recover more comfortably as a day surgery patient.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–65 - NCT06912269Recruiting
Strength training for the calf after Achilles tendon rupture
This trial tests if strength training can improve calf muscle function in men who tore their Achilles tendon (up to 5 years ago) and had surgery. You cannot have done regular calf exercises recently or have certain health conditions.
Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do SulAges 18–64 - NCT06254794Recruiting
Blood flow restriction rehab after Achilles tendon repair
This study tests whether adding blood flow restriction (BFR) to standard physical therapy helps people recover better after Achilles tendon repair surgery. You may be a good fit if you had a PARS or open repair and plan to rehab at a Methodist Hospital.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05241197Recruiting
Low-load leg training with blood flow restriction for Achilles pain
This study tests whether gentle resistance exercises plus a blood-flow restriction wrap can reduce long-lasting Achilles tendon pain. You may be asked to train in the clinic several times a week for 12 weeks.
Rosario, Santa Fe ProvinceAges 18–50 - NCT07453485Recruiting
Electrical stimulation for Achilles tendon pain and function
This study tests if a brief session of neuromuscular electrical stimulation can reduce pain and improve function in people with Achilles tendon problems, such as midportion or insertional pain, or a healed rupture that happened at least 3 months ago.
Brasília, Federal DistrictAges 18–60 - NCT06641401Enrolling by invitation
Endoscopic tendon transfer for acute Achilles rupture
This study looks at patients who had a specific type of surgery (endoscopic FHL transfer) for a recent Achilles tendon tear. It aims to check how well they recovered after at least two years.
Náousa, Central MacedoniaAges 18–18 - NCT06114368Enrolling by invitation
Comparing two surgeries for torn Achilles tendon
This trial compares two types of surgery for a fresh Achilles tendon tear: a keyhole procedure using a nearby tendon, versus a minimally invasive repair. It aims to find which approach leads to better recovery.
Náousa, Central MacedoniaAges 18–75 - NCT06736795Recruiting
Online support for Achilles tendon loading exercises
This study tests whether extra support from a clinician during a progressive exercise program helps people with Achilles tendon pain improve faster. You'll do exercises that gradually increase the load on your tendon, with guidance from a physical therapist via video visits.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18–60 - NCT03248284Recruiting
Study of inflammation in Achilles tendons in psoriatic arthritis
This trial studies people with psoriatic arthritis who have painful Achilles tendon insertion with signs of inflammation on ultrasound. It may help researchers better understand what drives tendon inflammation and how it can be treated.
OdenseAges 18–70 - NCT05798962Recruiting
Study of muscle repair changes after calf or hamstring injury
This study looks at what is happening inside muscle tissue after calf or hamstring injuries (new, long-term, or after an Achilles tendon rupture). It may help researchers understand why injuries come back and how muscle healing could be improved.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for achilles tendon rupture?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 16 recruiting achilles tendon rupture studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a achilles tendon rupture trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a achilles tendon rupture trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
