New Brunswick, New JerseyAges 21 years+ - NCT05327699RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Ketamine study for depression with reduced pleasure
This early-phase study tests whether ketamine can help people with major depression who have trouble feeling pleasure. It also studies how the brain may change in response to stress, to better understand who might respond to treatment.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18–65 - NCT05336201RecruitingPhase 2
Brain training program for teens with sickle cell disease
This Phase 2 study tests a cognitive (thinking) training program to help teens with sickle cell disease prepare for the changes in their care as they grow older. It may help with skills like learning, attention, and planning for transition to adult care.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 10–18 - NCT05354765Recruiting
Collect immune cells by lymphapheresis to study cancer response
This trial studies how changing your immune system (with earlier treatments) affects cancer by collecting immune cells from your blood using a process called lymphapheresis. It may help researchers find better ways to monitor immune-related responses and side effects.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT05268614RecruitingPhase 2
Risk-based reduced chemo and radiation for HPV throat cancer
This trial tests whether using a lower intensity (reduced) chemo-radiation plan can work for some people with HPV-related oropharyngeal (throat) cancer without losing effectiveness. It may help reduce side effects while still controlling the cancer.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05165537Recruiting
MRI scan to measure body chemicals without needles
This study tests a new way to use MRI to measure certain body chemicals (metabolite levels) without injections. If you are healthy and can safely do a long MRI scan, you may be able to help evaluate whether the method works reliably.
Bern, PhDAges 18 years+ - NCT05137119RecruitingPhase 4
Adaptive study of treatments for staph bloodstream infection
This trial tests the best treatment approach for bloodstream infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus (“S. aureus”). It uses a flexible design to decide which treatment track you fit into, and may help improve recovery while avoiding unnecessary medications.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT05125822Recruiting
Study of how bodies change weight in youth with obesity
This study looks at what helps or drives weight changes in children and teens with obesity. You may be asked about growth and body changes to better understand why weight changes happen and how to manage them.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 11–15 - NCT05091645Recruiting
Testing a Greek version of a frailty screening for hip fracture patients
This trial checks whether a translated and culturally adapted questionnaire (called the Groningen Frailty Indicator) works well for people age 65+ who have a hip fracture and are having surgery. It may help care teams better understand frailty and plan support after surgery.
LarissaAges 65 years+ - NCT04991103RecruitingPhase 2
Testing delaying stem cell transplant after early myeloma response
This Phase 2 study tests whether people with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma can safely delay or avoid an immediate stem cell transplant if they respond well to early treatment. It aims to see if this “response-adapted” approach can still control the disease while reducing the need for upfront transplant for some patients.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05030207Recruiting
Test a new CT scan method for lung cancer radiation planning
This study tests whether a real-time, breathing-adapted CT scan (called 4DCT) can be done safely and work well for planning radiation treatment for lung cancer. It may help make radiation planning more accurate while checking if the scan process is practical for patients.
Blacktown, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT05027711RecruitingPhase 2
MRI-guided precise radiation for liver metastases
This Phase 2 trial tests an MRI-guided, highly targeted radiation treatment (SBRT) for tumors that have spread to the liver. It may help shrink 1–3 liver metastases while using imaging to better guide treatment.
HeidelbergAges 18 years+ - NCT04942717Recruiting
Talking about health values with Spanish or English-speaking patients
This study tests an approach for discussing and sharing what patients value about their health, and adapting it for Latinx communities. It involves separate interviews with patients, families/caregivers, and oncology clinicians to improve how the intervention works and is understood.
New York, New YorkAges 21 years+ - NCT03215719RecruitingPhase 2
De-escalating treatment for HPV-positive throat cancer with low-risk signals
This Phase 2 trial tests whether people with HPV-positive oropharyngeal (throat) cancer who look “lower risk” can safely receive less intensive treatment. It uses HPV blood test results and cancer staging scans to guide whether treatment can be de-escalated.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04865276Recruiting
Quit tobacco with a phone-based support program
This study tests a phone (mHealth) program designed to help people stop using tobacco. You may be assigned to either the program or a comparison group, based on your location and the study plan.
Londrina, ParanáAges 18 years+ - NCT04900623RecruitingPhase 2
Using HPV blood test to guide treatment for HPV throat cancer
This Phase 2 study tests a “risk-adapted” treatment plan for HPV-related throat cancer, using an HPV DNA blood test to help decide how treatment is done. If your baseline blood test shows detectable HPV DNA, the study may help tailor therapy to your risk and potentially improve outcomes while limiting unnecessary treatment.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 22 years+ - NCT04901234RecruitingPhase 2
Adaptive radiation for advanced throat cancer
This study tests an approach called “adaptive radiotherapy,” where the radiation plan may be adjusted based on how your tumor and anatomy look during treatment. It is for adults with biopsy-proven oropharyngeal (throat) squamous cell carcinoma who are planning curative radiation, with or without chemotherapy.
MelbourneAges 18 years+ - NCT04898790Recruiting
Testing ways to improve thinking after bone marrow transplant
This study looks at whether a physical activity program and related study measures can improve thinking and memory in older adults around the time of a stem cell transplant. If you qualify and participate, the team will compare outcomes between groups to see what approach works best.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 19 years+ - NCT03322995RecruitingPhase 2
Neoadjuvant chemo study for resectable pancreatic cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests a chemotherapy plan given before surgery (called “neoadjuvant” treatment) for people with pancreatic adenocarcinoma that looks resectable or borderline resectable on scans. The goal is to see how well this adaptive chemotherapy approach works and whether it can improve outcomes before an operation.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT04789746Enrolling by invitation

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for adaptation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 646 recruiting adaptation 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 adaptation 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 adaptation 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.
