Testing better footwear options for women with below-knee amputations

Compare two antibiotic routes for infected broken bones after surgery
This Phase 3 trial tests whether giving antibiotics by mouth (PO) works as well as giving antibiotics through a vein (IV) for an infected fracture that has not healed after prior surgery. It may help you understand which approach is safer and more effective for getting the bone to heal.

What taking part in a amputation study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there amputation clinical trials in Minnesota?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 6 recruiting amputation studies with a site in Minnesota, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a amputation study in Minnesota?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Minnesota to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Minnesota, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a amputation trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
