Recruiting studies
- NCT05350813Recruiting
Using procalcitonin to stop antibiotics earlier safely
This study tests whether a blood test called procalcitonin can help doctors stop intravenous antibiotics earlier in young hospitalized children when an infection seems likely. The goal is to reduce unnecessary antibiotic exposure without missing serious infections.
AmiensAges 3 days–17 years - NCT05202964Recruiting
Study comfort and safety with oral antibiotics for bone joint infection
This trial studies how tolerable (comfortable) and safe oral antibiotic treatment is for infections in bones or joints. It may help confirm whether taking antibiotics by mouth for at least 6 weeks is well tolerated during treatment.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT05248620Recruiting
Antibiotics to prevent infections in hemodialysis catheters
This trial tests whether taking preventive antibiotics (or a placebo sugar pill) can lower the risk of infections in people who receive hemodialysis through a catheter. It may help protect you from serious catheter-related infections, but you must be able to follow the study’s medicine and consent rules.
Copenhagen, Capital RegionAges 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 - NCT04961580Recruiting
Study of ceftazidime dosing in sick children
This trial measures how ceftazidime (an antibiotic) moves through the body and how it works in children with severe infections in the pediatric intensive care unit. It may help doctors choose safer, more effective dosing for kids.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 3 months–18 years - NCT04791579RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing UTIs after Botox for neurogenic bladder
This study tests whether taking an antibiotic (ciprofloxacin) around the time of bladder Botox can prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs) in people whose bladder problems are caused by nerve conditions. It may help lower the chance of infection after treatment.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18–100 - NCT04759001RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Fecal treatment to clear gut bacteria resistant to antibiotics
This study tests a stool-based treatment (fecal microbiota treatment) to help remove “carbapenem-resistant” bacteria living in the gut. If you carry these bacteria without being sick, the goal is to reduce or stop that colonization.
RomeAges 18–90 - NCT04664569Recruiting
Study of treatments for bacterial meningitis in children
This study enrolls children and newborns with suspected or confirmed bacterial meningitis. The goal is to understand and improve care for serious infections that affect the lining around the brain.
CréteilAges 1 day–18 years - NCT04678154RecruitingPhase 3
Antibiotic trial for severe open fractures of the leg or foot
This trial tests a new way of giving antibiotics to people with severe open fractures in the leg, ankle, or foot. The goal is to see if it helps prevent infections after surgery.
Redwood City, CaliforniaAges 18–64 - NCT04664556Recruiting
Study of severe pneumococcal infections in children
This study tracks cases of invasive pneumococcal disease (a serious infection) in children and newborns. It may help clinicians better understand how these infections happen and guide future prevention and treatment.
CréteilAges 1 day–18 years - NCT04460313Recruiting
Testing bacteria in children’s noses and ears
This study looks at bacteria (especially pneumococcus) in the nose and throat of children. It includes children with ear infections or healthy children, to understand which germs are carried and how they relate to illness.
CréteilAges 6 months–15 years - NCT04444440RecruitingPhase 4
Antibiotic prevention after bladder Botox for overactive bladder
This trial studies whether taking an antibiotic around the time of bladder Botox can lower the risk of urinary infections. It’s for women with overactive bladder who tried standard medicines but didn’t get enough relief.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT04297592Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Antibiotics to prevent infection after hip or knee replacement
This trial studies whether giving antibiotics before and/or after surgery can lower the chance of a serious joint infection after elective hip or knee replacement. It’s aimed at people at higher risk for infection.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18–99 - NCT04194216Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Antibiotic prevention during rhinoplasty surgery
This trial studies whether giving antibiotics before and around rhinoplasty (nose reshaping) can lower the risk of infection. If you qualify, you may be randomized to receive antibiotic prevention or another approach to prevention.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03765567RecruitingPhase 4
Antibiotic powder placed in certain emergency open fractures
This study tests whether putting antibiotic powder directly into an open fracture wound in the emergency room can improve care outcomes. It focuses on adults treated shortly after injury.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18–89 - NCT03713528Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Antibiotic placed in bone to help save an infected knee implant
This trial tests whether putting antibiotics directly inside the bone during surgery can improve outcomes for an infected knee prosthesis when the implant is being kept. It may help more people avoid needing full implant removal and replacement.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03462329Recruiting
Study of expectations after Lyme disease symptoms
This study enrolls people diagnosed with early Lyme disease (erythema migrans) to learn how people’s expectations about symptoms may affect what happens after treatment. Your experience and beliefs will be compared to see if they relate to post-Lyme symptoms.
LjubljanaAges 18 years+ - NCT03234296Enrolling by invitation
Antibiotics versus placebo for uncomplicated appendicitis
This trial tests whether taking antibiotics alone can treat acute uncomplicated appendicitis, compared with a placebo. If antibiotics work, it may help some people avoid surgery or reduce treatment intensity.
TurkuAges 18–60 - NCT02456974Recruiting
Testing how antibiotics are dosed in children’s intensive care
This study looks at whether giving common antibiotics in certain dose schedules (either through a drip over time or continuously) is done in a way that fits pediatric intensive care needs. It may help improve antibiotic treatment for children who are very sick and need antibiotics.
GhentAges 1 day–16 years

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for antibiotics?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 283 recruiting antibiotics 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 antibiotics 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 antibiotics 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.
