Recruiting studies
- NCT04300998Recruiting
CAR-T therapy study for older adults
This study looks at how well CAR-T cell therapy works and how safely it can be given to older adults. It is for people whose cancer or related blood condition has come back or did not respond, and who are receiving a standard (commercial) CAR-T product.

Memory and attention training for adults after brain injury
This trial tests a therapy that helps improve verbal working memory and attention in adults who had a traumatic brain injury (TBI). It may help by training thinking skills that are often affected after an injury, but it’s only for people who meet timing and mental health substance-use requirements.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04373629Recruiting
Testing how flexible appearance worries may change in BDD
This study looks at whether training can change how people with body appearance worries (including body dysmorphic disorder) perceive faces or the head. It may help researchers understand new ways to reduce distress related to these concerns.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–40 - NCT04443179Recruiting
Baby brain scans in England to study early development
This study does brain imaging (brain scans) in babies to better understand early brain development and how factors like family history and COVID-19 might relate to development. It may help researchers learn which babies could need extra support later.
LondonAges 16–75 - NCT04526600Recruiting
Study of fidgeting and attention in ADHD
This study looks at how fidgeting relates to attention and emotional control in people with ADHD. It may help researchers understand ADHD better and improve how symptoms are measured or supported.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–30 - NCT04529031Recruiting
Study of reminder-based positive thinking for teens with PTSD
This study looks at whether a “reminder-focused positive thinking” approach can help teens with PTSD. It may benefit you by testing how certain cues and supportive thoughts affect PTSD symptoms and related wellbeing.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 11–15 - NCT04631042Recruiting
Study how the brain relates to impulsivity and compulsivity
This study looks at how brain function and structure relate to impulsive and compulsive behaviors. It may help researchers understand what drives these behaviors and who may benefit from future mental health treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 6–80 - NCT04724499Recruiting
High-intensity interval exercise during chemo to improve brain function
This trial tests whether high-intensity interval training (short bursts of harder exercise with recovery) during chemotherapy can improve thinking and memory in women with early-stage breast cancer. Participants may join an exercise program supervised at a hospital or at home, with many health and brain-related check-ins.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04781140RecruitingPhase 4
Viloxazine trial for preschool kids with ADHD
This study tests whether viloxazine extended-release can reduce ADHD symptoms in children ages 4–5. It also checks safety in preschool-age kids, including heart and nervous-system side effects.
Saraland, AlabamaAges 4 years–5.8 years - NCT04885322Recruiting
Brain stimulation trial for attention and thinking control
This study tests whether a non-painful brain stimulation method (tDCS) can improve attention and “thinking control,” and how brain activity changes during tasks. It also uses brain imaging (MRI), so safety and comfort conditions must be met.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–50 - NCT04886245Recruiting
Eye-tracking study of face attention in facial paralysis
This pilot study uses an eye-tracking camera to measure where people look when viewing faces. It compares attention patterns in adults with facial paralysis to healthy adults, which may help improve understanding and support for people affected.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT00018057RecruitingPhase 2
Brain study of pediatric anxiety disorders
This study looks at how the brain works in children and adults with anxiety disorders. It uses brain scans (fMRI) and other safe tests to understand anxiety better.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 8–65 - NCT04946253Recruiting
Help in teams to improve care for kids with behavior problems
This study tests a program to help pediatric practice teams work together better, led by clinic leadership and managers, to support children’s behavioral health. Caregivers of children ages 5–12 with behavior problems may also be involved to connect care at home and in the clinic.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - 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.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05236062Recruiting
Exercise during steroid treatment for GVHD
This study looks at whether doing moderate-to-vigorous exercise can reduce complications from corticosteroids in people with newly diagnosed GVHD. It may help your body tolerate steroids better, while checking exercise safety during treatment.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05323383Recruiting
Brief mindfulness and hypnosis for ongoing pain relief
This trial studies whether brief mindfulness meditation or hypnosis can help people who live with long-lasting or recurring pain. It also looks at how these approaches might reduce pain over time.
Brisbane, QueenslandAges 18 years+ - NCT05356117Recruiting
Exercise plus protein shakes for people with pancreatic cancer
This trial studies whether a supervised resistance exercise program combined with protein supplementation can help people with non-metastatic pancreatic cancer during chemotherapy. It may improve strength and how well you tolerate treatment, with safety monitoring throughout.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05380050Recruiting
Telehealth vs in-person skills training for brain injury and PTSD
This study compares a combined skills program delivered by video/phone (telehealth) versus meeting in person. It aims to improve attention and coping skills for veterans who have both mild brain injury and PTSD.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 30–55 - NCT05414357Recruiting
Sleep problems study in breast cancer and effects on thinking
This study looks at how sleep problems affect thinking and daily quality of life in people treated for early breast cancer. It may help researchers understand which sleep issues to target to improve well-being during or after treatment.
CaenAges 45–65 - NCT05442957Recruiting
BRIGHT program after head and neck cancer treatment
This trial tests a “renewed image” program (BRIGHT) compared with another option (AC) after you’ve finished treatment for certain head and neck cancers. It may help you with emotional well-being and adjustment after cancer.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT05531734Recruiting
Study of attention changes during shift work fatigue
This study uses special brain recording to see how fatigue from demanding hospital shifts affects attention in healthy adults. You might help researchers understand fatigue risk and how attention changes during emergency or intensive care work.
GarchesAges 18 years+ - NCT05548413Recruiting
Helping heart failure patients take meds with family support
This study tests whether family-focused coaching and easy-to-read materials can improve heart failure medication adherence. It also uses an electronic pillbox to track how consistently you take your meds, with your care partner involved.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for attention?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 298 recruiting attention 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 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.
