Test of brain testing during stimulant treatment for ADHD
This trial checks whether a “NIH Toolbox” set of child-friendly tests can detect changes when stimulant medicine is used for ADHD. It may help doctors better measure how well stimulant treatment is working in people with intellectual disability.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 6–24 - NCT05219955Recruiting
Study of caregiver stress and sleep in older adults

Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 55 years+ - NCT05236010Recruiting
Brain stimulation plus cognitive training for mild TBI memory and thinking
This trial studies whether brain stimulation through the scalp can improve cognitive (thinking and memory) training in people with chronic mild traumatic brain injury (TBI). Participants train on thinking tasks while receiving a targeted “control network neuromodulation” approach to see if it enhances training results.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18–59 - NCT05236062Recruiting

This Phase 2 study tests whether reboxetine or methylphenidate can improve attention and emotional or sensory problems in adults with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). You may be eligible if you have a confirmed PTSD diagnosis and are able to meet medication and safety requirements.
AfulaAges 20–60 - NCT04997096Recruiting
Exercise during chemo to prevent weakness from low movement
This study tests whether a structured exercise program during chemotherapy can help prevent physical decline (“immobility,” like getting weaker or moving less) in people with certain ovarian or endometrial cancers. If you’re eligible, you may be guided to exercise while receiving standard chemo, and you’ll have blood tests to track changes.

- How do I know if I qualify for a attention 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 attention 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.
