Brain stimulation to help older adults with mild memory problems stand and walk better
This study tests if a gentle electrical current applied to the scalp (called transcranial alternating current stimulation, or tACS) can improve your ability to stand and walk while doing another task. It aims to help older adults with mild memory problems become more stable and reduce fall risk.
High Point, North CarolinaAges 65–85 - NCT07099859RecruitingPhase 4
Losartan after aortic valve surgery for severe leakage
This trial tests if the drug losartan can help the heart recover better after surgery to replace a leaky aortic valve. It may reduce strain on the heart and improve long-term outcomes.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18–85 - NCT07099950Recruiting
How brain ultrasound affects mood and anxiety
This study uses low-intensity focused ultrasound on the brain to see if it can help with mood and anxiety. It looks at different doses to find the most effective and safe level.
Tulsa, OklahomaAges 18–65 - NCT07106060Recruiting
Brain imaging of motor imagery effects in spinal cord injury
This study uses a special camera to see how imagining movement (motor imagery) affects brain activity in people with spinal cord injury. It aims to help understand how the brain recovers after injury.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–75 - NCT07115017Recruiting
Testing a new PET scan tracer for brain inflammation in MS
This study uses a new radioactive tracer called [18F]-FZTA during a PET scan to see inflammation in the brain. Researchers want to test this tracer in both healthy adults and people with multiple sclerosis (MS) to see if it can help detect MS activity.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT07115108Recruiting
High-energy feeding for growth and brain development in infants with heart disease
This study tests a special high-energy formula for babies with congenital heart disease who are at nutritional risk. It aims to see if this feeding helps them grow and develop better before and after heart surgery.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges birth–6 months - NCT07116187Recruiting
Helping stroke survivors return to work through cognitive training
This study is testing a program designed to help stroke survivors improve thinking skills needed for returning to work or switching jobs. It involves both the survivor and a caregiver who knows them well.
SingaporeAges 21–65 - NCT07120373Recruiting
Sleep after traumatic brain injury: a wearable tracker study
This study looks at how sleep is affected after a traumatic brain injury (TBI). It uses a small wearable tracker to measure sleep patterns at home, either soon after the injury or a year or more later.
Nottingham, NottinghamshireAges 18–60 - NCT07125534Recruiting
Alcohol and social interaction brain study
This study looks at how drinking alcohol affects brain activity during social interactions. You will be asked to visit the lab, consume a measured amount of alcohol, and have your brain activity recorded while talking or interacting with others. It aims to help understand social brain function.
Champaign, IllinoisAges 21–30 - NCT07127510Recruiting
Brain NAD in Alzheimer's disease study
This study tests whether a natural substance called NAD can improve brain health in people with early Alzheimer's. You may be eligible if you have a firm Alzheimer's diagnosis, are between 65 and 80, and can walk and talk without help.
Boca Raton, FloridaAges 65–80 - NCT07127913Recruiting
Closed-loop brain stimulation for hard-to-treat bipolar depression
This trial tests a closed-loop deep brain stimulation system for people with bipolar II disorder whose depression has not responded to standard treatments. The device sends targeted electrical pulses to the brain based on real-time activity, aiming to reduce depression symptoms.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 22–70 - NCT07129317Recruiting
Pediatric radiation therapy registry
This study collects information from children and young adults who are getting radiation therapy to help improve future treatments. It looks at how radiation affects the body over time.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges birth–26 years - NCT07130929Recruiting
Electrical stimulation for muscle weakness after severe stroke
This trial tests if a gentle electrical stimulation technique, called functional electrical stimulation, can help patients recover muscle strength after a severe stroke that left them weak in the arms and legs. It may offer a new way to aid rehabilitation in the early months after stroke.
Florence, FIAges 18–80 - NCT07131475RecruitingPhase 2
Brain injury detection in Navy SEALs with blast exposure
This study looks for early signs of brain injury in Navy SEALs who are repeatedly exposed to blasts. It uses advanced scans and biomarkers to find changes that might lead to problems later on.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for brain?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,062 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.
