Breathing low-oxygen training to support brain blood flow in seniors
This study tests whether brief “low-oxygen” conditioning can improve blood flow to the brain and overall cerebrovascular (brain blood vessel) health in older adults. It may help people who are generally less active, as long as they have no major medical or safety barriers for the training.
La Tronche, Auvergne-Rhône-AlpesAges 60–80 - NCT05366881Recruiting
Blood test study to spot early cancer signal and cancer leftovers
This observational study checks whether a blood test (a “cfDNA” test) can detect early signs of cancer or small amounts of cancer left after treatment. It may help doctors use a simple blood sample to improve cancer detection and follow-up.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 40 years+ - NCT05378035Recruiting
DOAC interruption study for Chinese people with atrial fibrillation
This trial studies how safely and effectively to pause a blood thinner (a DOAC) for about 48 hours before an elective procedure in people with atrial fibrillation. It may help confirm the best way to reduce bleeding risk without raising stroke risk.
Hong KongAges 18–80 - NCT05578300Recruiting
Translating thrombectomy care into real-world practice in Asia-Pacific
This study aims to help endovascular thrombectomy for certain severe strokes work well in everyday hospital care across Asia-Pacific. You may be considered if you’re an adult with a specific type of stroke blocked in a major brain blood vessel.
Linyi, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT05733520Recruiting
Telehealth coaching for Alzheimer’s caregivers using a phone
This trial tests a mobile telehealth program designed to help unpaid caregivers reduce Alzheimer’s-related symptoms in the people they care for. If you’re a primary caregiver, you may get study sessions using a smartphone or similar device.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT06189950Recruiting
Testing a new stent for wide-necked brain aneurysms
This trial is testing a new stent (a small mesh tube) designed to treat wide-necked brain aneurysms. If you have this type of aneurysm, the stent helps hold coils in place to block blood flow and prevent rupture.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18–80 - NCT06301776Recruiting
Shorter vs. longer blood thinners after bridge stent for neck artery
This trial compares two different lengths of blood-thinner therapy after getting a Bridge stent for a narrowed artery in the back of the neck. It aims to find the best way to prevent future strokes with fewer side effects.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–80 - NCT06344871Recruiting
Testing a new head-only PET scanner
This study tests a new, more comfortable head-only PET scanner that may be easier for patients to use. You can join if you are already getting a routine brain PET scan.
LeipzigAges 18–80 - NCT06712004RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new stroke drug: different doses for people who cannot get standard care
This trial tests a new medication (bevifibatide) to see which dose works best for people having an ischemic stroke who cannot get standard treatments like clot-busting drugs or a procedure to remove the clot. It aims to improve recovery by stopping clots from getting worse.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT06728592Recruiting
Emergency stroke unit for ischemic stroke within 6 hours
This trial tests a dedicated emergency stroke unit for people with ischemic stroke who can get treatment within 6 hours of symptoms starting. It aims to see if this special care area improves outcomes.
Hong KongAges 18–100 - NCT06848959Recruiting

Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT01403402Recruiting
Study of congenital muscle disease patients and their families

Lakewood, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT02071134Recruiting
Registry study for Vercise deep brain stimulation patients
This study keeps a record of people who receive the Vercise deep brain stimulation system. It helps doctors learn how the treatment is used in real-world care and how patients do over time.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for brain diseases?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 334 recruiting brain diseases 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 brain diseases 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 brain diseases 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.
