- NCT06633406Enrolling by invitation
How anesthesia during pregnancy affects child development
This study looks at how being exposed to general anesthesia before birth might affect a child's thinking skills and brain development. It compares children who were exposed to anesthesia during a mother's surgery (like for appendicitis) with children who were not exposed, and also with children whose mothers had inflammatory bowel disease. The goal is to see if anesthesia plays a role in learning or emotional challenges later in childhood.

Study rare obesity linked to eating and brain conditions
This study aims to improve diagnosis and treatment planning for people with severe obesity—especially when it may be related to a genetic cause or a brain condition affecting appetite. You may be invited if your case includes clues from your history or symptoms, and you can consent to genetic testing discussions as part of usual care.

Study predicts risk of RBD turning into Parkinson’s
This study looks at people diagnosed with idiopathic REM sleep behavior disorder (a sleep problem where you act out dreams) and tries to predict who may later develop another condition related to Parkinson’s. If you qualify and consent, you may be followed to understand risk factors and improve early identification.
Oggebbio, VerbaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07790744Recruiting
Brain imaging study for early Parkinson's signs in people with REM sleep disorder
This study uses MRI scans to look at the brain in people with REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD), a condition that can be an early sign of Parkinson's disease. By comparing them with healthy volunteers, researchers hope to find early markers of Parkinson's that could lead to earlier diagnosis and treatment.
HvidovreAges 18 years+ - NCT05510401Recruiting
Safe use study of an at-bed safety mattress system
This study checks whether a special bed-safety device (SÉCURIDRAP® SELFIA®) can be used safely for adults who get confused, move at night, or are at risk of falling out of bed. You may be able to join if you already have a prescription for the device and meet other safety and consent requirements.

Swedish BioFINDER Sleep Study: Brain imaging in RBD and Parkinson's
This study examines brain changes in people with REM sleep behavior disorder (acting out dreams during sleep) and early Parkinson's disease using brain imaging scans. Researchers want to understand how sleep problems relate to Parkinson's development and find early warning signs.
MalmöAges 50–100 - NCT07465081Recruiting
Ultra-processed food and behavior/cognition in children with ADHD or learning difficulties
This study looks at how eating a lot of ultra-processed foods (like sugary snacks, chips, and fast food) relates to behavior and thinking in children aged 10 to 15 who have ADHD or learning difficulties. It aims to understand if high consumption of these foods is linked to more behavioral issues or problems with attention and memory.
TaichungAges 10–15 - NCT07336537Recruiting
Testing talk-based data collection software for chronic pain
This study tests easy-to-use talk-based software to collect health information from people with chronic pain. It may help researchers learn if tools like these are helpful for managing pain at home or in a lab.
Cambridge, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07286305Recruiting
Media and Mental Health Study for Adults
This study looks at how media affects mental health. If you're an adult English speaker who has been treated at WHC for at least 6 months and are not currently in crisis or dependent on substances, you may be able to join.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07282158Recruiting
Coping help for ovarian cancer care providers
This trial tests a program to help doctors, nurses, and other clinicians who care for ovarian cancer patients manage burnout and stress. It aims to see if the adapted coping intervention improves well-being.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT07203014Enrolling by invitation
Parent-teacher partnership for kids with behavior challenges
This trial tests a program that helps parents and teachers work together to support preschool children who have behavioral challenges or need help with social-emotional skills.
Chicago, IllinoisAges Any age - NCT05840198Recruiting
Dog-assisted therapy for youth in residential care
This study tests whether a structured therapy program with a canine (dog) can improve outcomes for youth receiving residential inpatient services. If you qualify, you would be asked to complete baseline tasks and, if assigned, attend at least one of the dog-therapy sessions over about 6 weeks.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 8–18 - NCT05788783Recruiting
6-week dog training program for youth in outpatient mental health care
This study tests whether a structured dog training program is practical and helpful for youth who are already getting outpatient mental health services. You may be able to participate in a 6-week program if you can attend every week and have no safety concerns with dogs.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 8–17 - NCT06329453Recruiting
Gut immunity and brain health study
This study looks at how your gut's immune system relates to brain and nerve diseases. Researchers will collect samples during a colonoscopy to better understand connections between gut health and neurologic conditions like multiple sclerosis or Parkinson's disease.
North Haven, ConnecticutAges 18–99 - NCT06270290Recruiting
Concussions and contact sports in RBD patients versus controls
This trial looks at whether people with REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) have more concussions or contact sports history than people without RBD, to see if head injuries might be linked to the condition.

Study for early RBD as a possible Parkinson’s risk
This study looks at people with REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD), confirmed by a sleep test, who may be in the early “prodromal” stage before Parkinson’s or related diseases. It also enrolls healthy controls to compare results from brain and body testing to better understand who is at risk.

Brain training study in people with REM sleep behavior disorder
This study looks at how the brain changes (“neuroplasticity”) in people diagnosed with isolated REM sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) using brain stimulation and other testing. Results may help researchers understand brain differences in iRBD and guide future treatments.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for behavior disorders?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 369 recruiting behavior disorders 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 behavior disorders 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 behavior disorders 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.
