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.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT07010445Recruiting
Gut-brain connection in resistant epilepsy
This study looks at how the gut and brain talk to each other in people with epilepsy, especially when seizures are hard to control. It may help find new ways to treat epilepsy by focusing on the gut.
Milan, LombardyAges 3–50 - NCT07010614Recruiting
Brain stimulation for memory in schizophrenia
This trial uses brain stimulation to target memory areas in people with schizophrenia or related conditions. It aims to see if this can help improve symptoms.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18–65 - NCT07013344Recruiting
Link between NT-proBNP and heart artery disease
This study looks at a blood test called NT-proBNP to see if it can help predict how much blockage is in the heart's arteries. It may help doctors better understand heart disease risk.
Milan, ItalyAges 18 years+ - 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 - 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 - 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 - 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+ - NCT07041450Recruiting
Screening for Alzheimer's treatment using digital tests and blood tests
This study is testing whether simple digital memory tests and blood tests can help find people who might qualify for anti-amyloid treatments (medications that target Alzheimer's-related proteins). It aims to make screening easier and faster, without needing a spinal tap or PET scan.
Greenfield Park, QuebecAges 55–90 - NCT07042087Recruiting
Brain health lifestyle study: timed eating and mindfulness

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for brain?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,066 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.
