Home glove helps stroke survivors use their arm
This study tests a home-use glove (SaeboGlove®) that may help people who had a stroke grip and hold objects with their hand. It looks at how using the glove affects arm function and what factors help people stick with the program.
ToulouseAges 18–90 - NCT06320132Recruiting
Study on brain bleed recovery in the ICU
This study looks at how patients recover after a sudden, non-traumatic brain bleed. It aims to learn more about their brain function and daily living skills over time.

Type 2 diabetes and brain blood barrier study
This study tests if a treatment can improve the blood-brain barrier in adults with type 2 diabetes. It uses MRI scans to see changes and may help protect brain function.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 40–65 - NCT07091500Recruiting
Exercise and a weight-loss drug for people with obesity
This trial tests whether combining a GLP-1 medication (a type of diabetes drug that also helps with weight loss) with an exercise program can improve physical function in people with obesity. If you are obese and have trouble with daily activities, this study may help you become more mobile and healthier.
St Louis, MissouriAges 50–75 - NCT06327334Recruiting
Brain-heart interaction study after cardiac arrest
This study looks at how the brain and heart interact after a cardiac arrest that leaves someone unconscious. It aims to understand these connections better, which could help improve care for future patients.
Brest, Brittany RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT06329245Recruiting
Tracking social skills and brain growth in infants at risk for autism
This study looks at how social behaviors and brain connections develop in infants who have a higher or lower chance of developing autism. It helps doctors understand early signs and may lead to better support for children and families.
ShanghaiAges birth–1.5 years - NCT06329570RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Bevacizumab with focused ultrasound for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial tests whether adding a focused ultrasound system (NaviFUS) to the drug bevacizumab can help people whose glioblastoma has come back. The treatment aims to deliver the drug more precisely to the brain tumor and potentially improve outcomes.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06329726Recruiting
Thinking and memory after brain stimulation for Parkinson's
This study looks at how deep brain stimulation (DBS) affects thinking and memory in people with Parkinson's disease over time. It compares results from people who have DBS and those who receive only medication.
Milan, LombardyAges 18–70 - NCT06332963Recruiting
Trial on body image and internal body signals in anorexia
This study explores how the brain senses internal body signals linked to body image in anorexia. It may help develop better treatments by understanding these connections.
Tulsa, OklahomaAges 13–50 - NCT06335836Recruiting
Social connections and brain health in memory decline
This study looks at how being socially isolated or socially active affects memory and brain health in people who feel their thinking is getting worse. You may join if you notice a slow decline in memory or thinking, but otherwise have normal test results.
Nanjing, China, JiangsuAges 45–85 - NCT06339398Recruiting
Exercise dose and brain health in Parkinson's
This study looks at how different amounts of physical exercise affect brain chemicals, movement symptoms, and brain connections in people with Parkinson's disease. You would walk and do exercises while researchers track changes over time.
Cassino, FrosinoneAges 30–80 - NCT06341517Recruiting
Brain circuit therapy for schizophrenia
This trial tests a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment (TMS) to improve symptoms of schizophrenia. It aims to target brain circuits that may be out of balance.
GenevaAges 18–65 - NCT06344559Recruiting
Brain activity, eye control, and mental effort study
This study looks at how your brain works when you focus your eyes and think hard. It uses an MRI and gentle brain stimulation (like a small magnetic pulse) to see how your brain cells act together.
Piscataway, New JerseyAges 18–45 - 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 - NCT06345963Recruiting
Brain stimulation to improve connectivity in schizophrenia
This study tests if brain stimulation can improve how different brain regions communicate in people with schizophrenia. It may help improve thinking and daily function.
Houston, TexasAges 18–60 - NCT06352710Recruiting
Tracking recovery after brain or spine surgery
This study uses a smartphone app to track how you recover after brain or spine surgery. It helps doctors understand how side effects affect your daily life, so they can improve care.
Sankt Gallen, St.GallenAges 18 years+ - NCT06358625Recruiting
Study of brain recurrence risk in HER2-positive breast cancer
This study looks at women with HER2-positive breast cancer who will get chemotherapy before surgery. The goal is to find out what factors might increase the chance of the cancer spreading to the brain later on.
RennesAges 18 years+ - NCT06362304Recruiting
New SPECT imaging for brain tumors
This trial tests a new imaging agent (99mTc-CNDG) to see if it can help doctors see brain tumors better on a SPECT/CT scan. It might provide more information than standard scans and could help guide treatment decisions.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06365099RecruitingPhase 1
Brain state test for arm recovery after stroke
This study tests whether we can use brain scans to predict when your brain is ready to move your weak arm after a stroke. It uses a safe, non-invasive technique called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to measure brain signals.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06367920Recruiting
Study of brain MRI data in children with developmental delay
This study looks back at medical records of children and young adults (up to age 20) who had brain MRIs to understand developmental delays. It aims to gather information that could help improve care for kids with similar conditions.
Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-doAges Up to 20 years - NCT06368648Recruiting
Study of a new forehead sensor for brain pressure monitoring
This study tests a new sensor that measures brain pressure from outside the head. It is for people who are already in the hospital getting their brain pressure and blood pressure monitored continuously.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for brain?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,059 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.
