Recruiting studies
- NCT06381856Enrolling by invitation
Helping autistic kids take part in their care
This study tests a way to help autistic children and teenagers, who do not have an intellectual disability, get more involved in their own habilitation (a process that helps them build skills and live more independently).
Örebro, Örebro CountyAges 7–17 - NCT06374381Enrolling by invitation
Peer Coaching for Autism Early Intervention
This study helps caregivers learn coaching strategies to support young children with or at risk for autism during early intervention visits. You'll work with your child's provider and receive weekly guidance from the research team.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 1 year+ - NCT06291233Enrolling by invitation
Interview training for autistic adults seeking jobs
This study helps autistic adults who are in job training programs find and keep jobs. You'll learn interview skills and get support to build your career.
Oceanside, CaliforniaAges 16–26 - NCT03380078Enrolling by invitation
Training programs to better support kids with autism
This study tests an organized training plan meant to help mental health programs and schools support children with autism. It involves leaders, therapists/providers, and parents who complete brief surveys and assessments to see what improves care and services.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07167732Recruiting
CTNNB1 Syndrome Natural History Study
This study follows people with CTNNB1 syndrome over time to better understand the condition. It does not test any new treatment—just collects information to help future research.
SydneyAges Any age - NCT07149974Enrolling by invitation
Neurofeedback training for autistic children
This trial tests a brain training technique called neurofeedback for children with autism. The goal is to see if it can help improve how the brain works and possibly reduce autism-related challenges.
Hong Kong, Hong KongAges 8–12 - NCT06920940Recruiting
Ketogenic diet for bipolar disorder in teens
This study tests whether a ketogenic diet (a very low-carb, high-fat diet) can help teens with bipolar disorder who are currently feeling depressed or have mixed symptoms. Participants will receive medical and dietitian support while trying the diet for up to 12 weeks.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 12–21 - NCT07054866Recruiting
Rural autistic kids & language support study
This study is for autistic children or those with language delays, as well as their siblings or cousins, living in rural areas. It aims to help them express themselves better. Typically-developing children are also welcome as a comparison group.
Bozeman, MontanaAges 2 years+ - NCT06847165Recruiting
Trigeminal nerve stimulation for kids with prenatal alcohol exposure
This study tests a gentle, non-invasive nerve stimulation device to see if it can improve attention and behavior in children aged 8-12 who were exposed to alcohol before birth and have ADHD. If it helps, it could offer a new way to manage symptoms without medication.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 8–12 - NCT07302048Recruiting
Mobile pain management support for kids with intellectual disabilities
This study tests a mobile program that helps manage pain in children and young adults with intellectual disabilities, autism, or multiple disabilities. It aims to see if the program improves pain relief and works well with their care team.
BrestAges Up to 24 years - NCT06005181Recruiting
Music training for children with FASD
This study tests whether music training can help children with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD). It aims to see if learning music improves brain function and behavior.
Albuquerque, New MexicoAges 8–16 - NCT05492032Recruiting
Brain stimulation sessions for teens with autism symptoms
This trial tests whether repeated, brain-based stimulation (done through the scalp) can improve symptoms in adolescents with autism spectrum disorder, and whether a later “booster” session adds more benefit. It may help learn which stimulation schedule works best, especially when teens also have attention symptoms—but not epilepsy or mood/anxiety disorders.
Hung Hom, KowloonAges 12–21 - NCT06272669Recruiting
Brain stimulation therapy for teens with autism
This study tests whether repeated sessions of a gentle brain stimulation technique called tDCS can help teenagers with autism feel calmer or more focused. The treatment is non-invasive and involves wearing a cap with electrodes for about 20 minutes at a time.
Hung Hom, KowloonAges 12–21 - NCT06935461Enrolling by invitation
Support program for infants and toddlers with prenatal alcohol exposure
This study tests a program called 'Families Moving Forward Bridges' for infants and toddlers (6–36 months) who were exposed to alcohol before birth and have developmental delays. It helps families support their child's growth and development.
Shoreline, WashingtonAges 6 months+ - NCT06821646Enrolling by invitation
Brain responses in depression and autism with TMS and EEG
This study uses brain stimulation (TMS) and brain wave recording (EEG) to understand how the brain works in people with autism, depression, or both. It may help find better ways to treat these conditions.
TaipeiAges 20–50 - NCT07042347Recruiting
Testing an app to improve data and supervision in behavioral health
This trial tests a measurement feedback app designed to help aides and supervisors working with children who have challenging behaviors, such as autism or ADHD. The app aims to improve data quality, supervision, and treatment outcomes.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for autism spectrum disorder?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 328 recruiting autism spectrum disorder 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 autism spectrum disorder 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 autism spectrum disorder 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.
