This study uses a special EEG headband to monitor brain activity at home in older adults. It aims to understand cognitive decline, including Alzheimer's and mild memory problems, and compare results with healthy volunteers.
Zaragoza, ZaragozaAges 60 years+ - NCT01793168Recruiting
Rare disease registry and history study
This study keeps a registry (a structured list) of people with rare diseases and may also track how the condition changes over time. It can help researchers better understand rare illnesses and find gaps in care, which may improve future treatments.
Sioux Falls, South DakotaAges Any age - NCT07032246Enrolling by invitation

Prague, PragueAges 18 years+ - NCT06908174Recruiting
Prosocial behavior and brain differences in autism vs typical development
This study compares how children with and without autism show helpful and kind behaviors, and looks at brain scans to see related differences. It aims to understand the brain networks involved in social behavior.
ShanghaiAges 2–17 - NCT06986096Recruiting
Brain health through diet and exercise
This study tests whether a healthy lifestyle program—combining nutrition advice and exercise training—can help protect brain health in people with early memory problems. It may be a good fit if you have mild cognitive concerns and are ready to make positive changes.
Bratislava, Bratislava RegionAges 60–80 - NCT06995313Recruiting
Biofeedback training for hemianopia
This trial tests a biofeedback training program for people with hemianopia (vision loss on one side) that started more than 6 months ago. The training uses visual and sound cues to help you make better use of your remaining vision.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–90 - NCT07033923Recruiting
Brain study of mood changes in depression and bipolar disorder
This study uses a mobile app and brain scans to understand day-to-day mood changes in people with depression or bipolar disorder. It may help doctors learn how to better predict and treat these conditions.
Paris, ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT07025070Recruiting
Exercise and brain health in active vs. inactive adults
This study looks at how physical activity affects brain health in healthy adults. It compares people who exercise regularly with those who are not very active, to see if staying active helps keep the brain sharp.
Madrid, MadridAges 40–75 - NCT07030205Recruiting
Brain imaging study for women with osteoporosis
This study uses brain scans (MRI) to look at how the brain might be linked to bone health in women with osteoporosis. It compares women with osteoporosis to healthy women of the same age.
Clermont-FerrandAges 50 years+ - NCT07031687Recruiting
A new brain stimulation study for early Alzheimer's
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation method (temporal interference stimulation) to see if it can improve memory in people with early signs of Alzheimer's disease. It aims to understand how the stimulation affects brain function.
Sanya, HainanAges 60–80 - NCT05968703Recruiting
Deep brain stimulation study for mild memory trouble in Parkinson’s
This trial looks at a specific type of deep brain stimulation (DBS) to see if it can help people with Parkinson’s who have mild cognitive problems (mild memory/thinking changes). You may also be asked to temporarily stop Parkinson’s medications around research visits to measure effects more clearly.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 21–80 - NCT06511804Recruiting
Blood vessel function and brain blood flow in neurocritical patients
This study looks at how blood vessel function relates to brain blood flow in patients in intensive care with brain injuries or conditions. It aims to find better ways to monitor patients using non-invasive tools.
Louisville, KentuckyAges 18–100 - NCT07023523Recruiting
Controlling brain activity for chronic pain
This study tests if people with fibromyalgia can learn to control their own brain activity using real-time feedback from an MRI machine to reduce pain. It is designed to help those with long-term chronic pain find new ways to manage it.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–65 - NCT07020312RecruitingPhase 2
Brain training to improve muscle recovery after joint surgery
This trial tests whether brain-computer interface training can help you regain muscle control more effectively after knee or hip surgery. It focuses on four common procedures and uses neurofeedback to optimize muscle activation during recovery.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07023640Recruiting
Imaging test for tumors using a new tracer agent
This trial tests a new imaging method (68Ga-DOTA-mPNE PET/CT) to see if it can help detect cancers. It's for people who haven't had chemotherapy or radiation yet and will have a biopsy or surgery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT07022522Recruiting
Brain stimulation frequencies for impulse control in Parkinson's
This study tests whether stimulating specific parts of the brain's subthalamic nucleus at different frequencies can improve control over unwanted movements or impulses in people with Parkinson's disease. If you are planning to have DBS surgery, this trial may help find a better way to use the device.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 40–80 - NCT03851523Recruiting
Tracking memory changes in people with early Alzheimer’s symptoms
This study follows people over time to better understand how memory and thinking complaints progress in early Alzheimer’s disease (from “subjective cognitive decline” to mild cognitive problems). It may help researchers understand who is likely to decline and how symptoms change, which could support future treatments.

Taletrectinib for ROS1+ lung cancer with brain spread
This study gathers real-world experience with the targeted drug taletrectinib for people with a specific type of advanced lung cancer (ROS1-positive) that has spread to the brain. Participation may help doctors better understand how well the drug works in everyday practice.

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.
