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+ - NCT06747260RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Breast milk through the nose for HIE
This trial tests whether giving fresh breast milk through the nose is safe and possible for newborns with HIE (a brain injury from oxygen loss at birth) who are already receiving cooling therapy. It may help protect the brain and reduce injury.
BudapestAges Up to 2 days - NCT06889480Recruiting
Deep brain stimulation for severe Tourette syndrome
This trial tests a surgical procedure using deep brain stimulation to treat severe Tourette syndrome that hasn't improved with other treatments. It may help reduce tics by targeting specific areas in the brain.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–60 - NCT06984445Recruiting
Cord Blood Protein in Anemia Transfusion Study
This study measures a protein (S100B) in cord blood from babies who had or did not need a blood transfusion in the womb for hemolytic disease. It looks for possible markers of brain health.
WarsawAges 18 years+ - NCT06088732RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Exercise and ibuprofen for bipolar depression
This study tests whether acute exercise and ibuprofen can improve symptoms of bipolar depression by studying their effects on the immune system and brain circuits. It may help if you are currently in a depressive episode and can do moderate physical activity.
Tulsa, OklahomaAges 18–55 - NCT06048614Recruiting
Saline enema for meconium blockage in premature babies
This trial tests if giving a saline enema helps premature babies with meconium blockage pass stool, start feeding, and improve gut and brain health. It may reduce complications and help babies grow better.
SingaporeAges 1 day–8 months - NCT07055633Recruiting
Improving cognitive rehab for veterans with concussion and PTSD
This trial tests a program to help veterans with memory, attention, or thinking problems after a mild concussion (mTBI) and with PTSD. It also looks at depression and sleep issues. The goal is to improve thinking and daily life.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07060651Recruiting
How the brain processes smells
This study looks at how different parts of the brain handle smells. It may help researchers better understand the sense of smell in people.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07057297Recruiting

This study follows patients who have had carotid artery surgery to see if the artery narrows again. It helps doctors understand how well the surgery works over time.
PragueAges 18–90 - NCT07063446Recruiting
Brain stimulation with movement therapy for babies with one-sided weakness
This study tests if combining a gentle magnetic head device (sTMS), constraint therapy (CIMT), and a mild nerve stimulator (taVNS) can help babies with one-sided weakness move better. Families join for 2 weeks of treatment and a 3-month follow-up.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 8 months–2 years - NCT07063732Recruiting
Ketone drink, high altitude, and brain blood flow during exercise
This trial tests whether a ketone monoester supplement affects brain blood flow and exercise performance at high altitude. It may help us understand how to support brain function during altitude exposure.
Bishop, CaliforniaAges 18–35 - NCT06242704Recruiting
Brain training to improve memory and decisions in teens

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for brain?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,015 recruiting brain 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 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 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.
