Strongsville, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07071350RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Optimizing heart rate for persistent concussion symptoms in military veterans
This trial tests a treatment designed to improve heart rate variability, which may help reduce long-term concussion symptoms like headaches, dizziness, and trouble sleeping. It is for military veterans who have had a mild concussion more than a year ago and still have ongoing symptoms.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06733025Recruiting
Comparing surgery and Botox for arm spasticity
This trial compares two treatments—Botox injections or surgery—for arm and hand spasticity after a stroke, brain injury, or spinal cord injury. It may help you decide which option works best for you.
MölndalAges 18 years+ - NCT05725993Recruiting
Study of tiny blood-vessel brain injury after head trauma
This study follows people with a moderate, non-penetrating traumatic brain injury (TBI) to see how small blood-vessel damage changes over time. It uses brain scans to learn what happens after a serious accident, which may help improve future care.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18–65 - NCT03325946Recruiting
Neuromotor research clinic for people with movement problems
This study is looking at people who have difficulties with movement or muscle control (neuromotor impairment). It may help researchers better understand these problems and improve future care.
Roanoke, VirginiaAges 3 months–18 years - NCT07873151Enrolling by invitation
Voice-activated call light for limited arm mobility
This study tests a voice-activated call light system that lets people with limited arm movement call for help by speaking. It aims to make it easier and safer for clients to get assistance.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 19 years+ - NCT07655310Recruiting
Parent factors and CT use in kids with minor head injury
This study looks at how a parent's background and understanding of health information might affect whether a child with a minor head injury gets a CT scan. It aims to better understand these factors to improve care.
BursaAges Up to 17 years - NCT05906056Recruiting
CPM therapy vs bone overgrowth in hip or knee
This study compares continuous passive motion (a machine that gently moves a joint without you moving it) versus the body’s tendency to form extra bone called heterotopic ossification. It aims to see whether CPM can affect how and how much bone overgrowth develops after neurologic injuries like stroke, brain injury, or spinal cord injury.
Ioannina, EpirusAges 15–70 - NCT07105358Recruiting
Vision recovery study after brain damage
This study tests whether the brain can improve vision after damage caused by stroke, tumor, or injury. It may help people with vision loss from a brain lesion find new ways to see better.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07090057Recruiting
Targeting the plantaris muscle in ankle surgery for children
This study tests if removing the plantaris muscle during surgery improves ankle movement in children with tight heel cords. It aims to see if this extra step leads to better outcomes.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 4–17 - NCT06782464Recruiting
Freezing nerves for shoulder pain after stroke or brain injury
This trial tests if freezing certain nerves in the upper arm (cryoneurolysis) works as well as standard care for reducing shoulder pain and muscle tightness after a stroke or brain injury. It aims to improve function and ease caregiving tasks.
LuxembourgAges 18 years+ - NCT05825027Recruiting
Sorting out risk in children with a recent concussion

Durham, North CarolinaAges 11–17 - NCT05343130Recruiting
Brain-controlled electrical therapy for arm mobility after spinal injury
This trial studies a brain-computer system that helps control electrical stimulation to improve arm movement after a spinal cord injury. It may help with functional use of the upper limbs during rehabilitation if you meet the specific injury, spasticity, and safety requirements.
Tlalpan, Mexico CityAges 18 years+ - NCT04708613Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for brain injuries?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 459 recruiting brain injuries 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 injuries 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 injuries 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.
