Recruiting studies near Baltimore
- NCT04363684Recruiting
Study of frontotemporal dementia and related syndromes over time
This study follows people with frontotemporal dementia (FTLD) and related conditions, and collects health and (for some people) body fluid information, to understand how these illnesses change over time. It may help researchers track disease signs and find better ways to measure progression.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07161999RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
COYA 302 treatment for ALS
This study tests an experimental treatment called COYA 302 for ALS. It aims to see if it can slow down the worsening of muscle weakness and improve daily function. It might be an option for people in the earlier stages of ALS.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–80 - NCT07521930Recruiting
Brain implant to restore communication and movement control
This trial tests a surgically implanted brain device designed to help people with severe paralysis or movement disorders regain the ability to communicate and control their limbs. The device reads signals from your brain and translates them into commands that could help you interact with computers or assistive technology.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–80 - NCT06578195Recruiting
Assess all ALS study
This study follows people with ALS and healthy volunteers over time to understand the disease better. You can join from home using a smartphone or computer.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07221240RecruitingPhase 1
Amisodin safety study for healthy adults with ALS
This trial tests a new drug called Amisodin in healthy adults who also have ALS. It checks if the drug is safe and how the body processes it.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–55 - NCT06581861Recruiting
Family study to prevent ALS and FTD
This study is for adults who have a strong family history of ALS or FTD (like a parent or sibling with the disease) to help researchers understand how to prevent these conditions. It involves following you for about a year to track your health.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07322003RecruitingPhase 3
Pridopidine for ALS: Phase 3 trial testing safety and effectiveness
This trial is testing if an oral medication called pridopidine can slow the progression of ALS. It is for people recently diagnosed with ALS who have mild to moderate breathing function and meet specific risk scores.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–80 - NCT03567213Recruiting
CortiCom brain signal system for communication in severe paralysis
This trial tests a system that records brain signals to help people with severe paralysis and little or no speech communicate. It involves a surgical implant and frequent study visits to see if the system can work safely and reliably for communication.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 22–70 - NCT03127267RecruitingPhase 3
Test of masitinib versus placebo for ALS
This Phase 3 study tests whether masitinib works better than an inactive pill (placebo) to slow ALS progression and keep it safe. It is meant for people recently diagnosed with ALS who meet specific breathing and function score requirements.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–81 - NCT06656702RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Psilocybin for depression in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
This trial tests whether psilocybin, a psychedelic drug, can safely help with depression in people with ALS. It also looks at how the drug affects your symptoms and quality of life over six months.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03225144Recruiting
Study of gene and disease changes in ALS and frontotemporal dementia
This study looks at complex brain and body changes in people with ALS and frontotemporal dementia (FTD), or related disorders. If you have one of these diagnoses—or a known gene mutation that can cause ALS/FTD—you may be able to help researchers learn how the conditions progress.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–110 - NCT04394871Recruiting
Study of ALS and related genetic nerve disorders using scans and fluid tests
This study looks at signs and biology (biomarkers) in people with certain inherited nerve conditions caused by RNA-processing gene changes. It may help researchers understand disease patterns and measure health changes using MRI scans and sometimes a spinal fluid test.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 5–120 - NCT06665165RecruitingPhase 1
Study of AMX0114 for people with ALS
This study tests an experimental drug called AMX0114 for people recently diagnosed with ALS. It is an early-phase trial to see if the drug is safe and how it affects the body.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05137665Recruiting
Study tracks ALS and health markers over time at home
This study follows people with ALS and healthy volunteers to measure how specific body fluids, symptoms, and at-home tracking change over time. It may help researchers find early signs of disease changes and better ways to measure treatment effects.

What taking part in a amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 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.
