Recruiting studies
- NCT05729542Recruiting
Suture button vs Fibulink for acute ankle ligament injury
This study compares two different surgical devices used to fix a torn ankle ligament (called the syndesmosis) after an ankle fracture. If you may need surgery for this specific injury, the results could help show which device leads to better recovery.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07553221Recruiting
Treatment study for complex ankle fractures with cartilage damage
This research studies how to treat severe ankle fractures (called pilon fractures) that damage the joint surface. Researchers will use external fixation (a temporary metal frame outside the skin) to stabilize your ankle while they plan surgery to repair the cartilage damage.
Columbia, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06293469Recruiting
Speeding up flap surgery for severe leg injuries
This trial tests whether performing flap surgery sooner after a severe leg injury below the knee leads to better outcomes. If you have an open fracture or dislocation that needs a flap, you may be able to join.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06420141Recruiting
Nerve pain after ankle fracture surgery
This study looks at why some people develop nerve pain (neuropathic pain) after breaking their ankle and having surgery. If you have an ankle fracture that needs surgery, you may be able to join and help researchers understand this type of pain better.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18–85 - NCT06872034Recruiting
Can Venostan reduce swelling after ankle fracture surgery?
This trial tests an oral medication called Venostan to see if it helps reduce swelling after ankle fracture surgery. If you have a broken ankle and are planning to have surgery to fix it, this study may be a good fit.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07751068Recruiting
Ankle fracture treatment in children
This trial compares non-surgical treatments for children with a first-time ankle fracture. It aims to find which treatment works best for healing and recovery.
Frisco, TexasAges 5–12 - NCT04429217Recruiting
Immediate versus delayed weight-bearing after ankle surgery
This trial compares two rehab plans after ankle fracture surgery: putting weight on the ankle right away versus waiting. It aims to see which approach is safer and better for healing and recovery.
LuganoAges 18–70 - NCT04715139Recruiting
Testing safety of specific foot and ankle implants
This study follows people who get certain Arthrex foot and ankle implants to check how safely they heal and work over time. It may help your care team by adding long-term information about these devices.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ankle fractures?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 32 recruiting ankle fractures 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 ankle fractures 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 ankle fractures 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.
