Recruiting studies
- NCT07274397Recruiting
Early brain scan study after glioblastoma surgery
This study tests whether it is safe and possible to do a special brain scan (nuclear imaging) within the first 3 days after surgery for glioblastoma. It may help doctors understand how well the tumor was removed and guide future treatments.
CréteilAges 18 years+ - NCT07292766Recruiting

Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07357298RecruitingPhase 3
Brain MRI surveillance for stage IV breast cancer
This trial tests whether regular brain MRI scans can help detect brain metastases early in patients with stage IV breast cancer who do not yet have any known brain metastases. The goal is to see if early detection improves outcomes.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT02098252Recruiting
Study for treating brain blood vessel malformations (AVMs)
This study is looking at treatment options for people who have an abnormal cluster of blood vessels in the brain (an AVM). It may help participants by offering a structured treatment approach, depending on the AVM type and recent symptoms.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 5 years+ - NCT02504788Recruiting
Protect the brain’s memory area during whole-brain radiation
This study tests whether avoiding the hippocampus (a part of the brain important for memory) during whole-brain radiotherapy can slow down thinking and memory decline. It may help some people preserve neurocognitive function while still treating brain metastases.
TaoyuanAges 18–84 - NCT03160131Recruiting
Rehab program to improve vision after brain injury
This study looks at rehabilitation to improve vision after a brain injury. It may help people with significant vision problems regain everyday visual function.
Copenhagen, HellerupAges 14 years+ - NCT03321370Recruiting
Study of brain swelling after severe head injury surgery
This trial looks at changes in brain activity after severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) when patients need emergency skull surgery. The goal is to better understand what happens in the brain after surgery and whether earlier recognition could help care after injury.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT07398157Recruiting
24-hour adaptive deep brain stimulation for Parkinson's
This trial tests a new deep brain stimulation system that adapts in real time to improve symptom control over 24 hours, especially for people with daytime fluctuations or sleep problems despite standard DBS.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07417085Recruiting
Study of gut bacteria in children with brain tumors
This study looks at how gut bacteria (the microbiome) may differ in children with brain tumors. Researchers will collect samples before and after surgery to understand the connection between gut health and brain tumors.
Florence, FirenzeAges 3–18 - NCT07426848Recruiting
Occupational therapy group for brain tumor patients
This study tests a group-based occupational therapy program to help people with primary brain tumors who are undergoing chemotherapy or other anti-cancer treatments. The goal is to improve daily activities and quality of life.
Dublin, BeaumontAges 18 years+ - NCT07481786RecruitingPhase 3
Bevacizumab with focused radiation vs standard brain radiation for lung cancer with brain spread
This trial tests combining a drug called bevacizumab with a focused radiation treatment for people with lung cancer that has spread to the brain. It compares this to the standard radiation approach, and aims to see which better preserves memory and controls tumors.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07485361Recruiting
Brain scanning in disorders of consciousness
This trial uses a portable brain scanner (fNIRS) to study brain activity in people with disorders of consciousness, like coma or minimally conscious states. It may help doctors better understand and track recovery in these patients. Healthy volunteers are also needed as a comparison group.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07490418Recruiting
Brain injury screening for mild head trauma or neurological symptoms
This trial tests a device (TES HT100) to screen for brain injuries in people with mild head trauma or certain neurological symptoms. It aims to quickly identify who might need imaging or follow-up care.
Castel Volturno, CEAges 18 years+ - NCT07552233Recruiting
NK Cell Therapy for Recurrent Brain Tumors
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy (NK cells) for patients with malignant brain tumors that have come back or worsened despite previous treatment. The goal is to see if these specially prepared immune cells can help fight the cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT07560631Recruiting
Facial Tracking to Monitor Brain Injury Recovery
This study uses camera technology to track subtle facial movements as a way to detect awareness and recovery in people with severe brain injuries. It may help doctors better understand and monitor patients who have suffered traumatic brain injury.
Stony Brook, New YorkAges 22–85 - NCT07560904Recruiting
Brain Stimulation to Improve Memory in Cognitive Decline
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique to help improve working memory (the ability to hold and use information briefly) in people with mild cognitive impairment related to Parkinson's disease or Lewy body disease. The stimulation targets deep brain structures without surgery.
BrnoAges 60–80 - NCT07635329Recruiting
Home Vision Therapy Guided by Brain Scans
This study tests whether vision rehabilitation exercises done at home, guided by brain imaging, can help people regain vision after a stroke, brain injury, or tumor. Participants will use brain scans to personalize their therapy.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06992570Enrolling by invitation
Brain injury risk in military training
This trial studies the risk of mild traumatic brain injury during military training. It may help improve safety for service members by understanding when and how these injuries happen.
Prague, Czech RepublicAges 18–50 - NCT06901310Enrolling by invitation
Hyperbaric oxygen for mild head injuries in combat athletes
This study tests whether hyperbaric oxygen therapy (breathing pure oxygen in a special chamber) helps men recover from mild head injuries better than the current standard care (rest). It is for male unarmed combat athletes who have been suspended for a head injury.
Marshfield, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT06727032Enrolling by invitation
Ai detection of brain metastases on MRI
This trial tests an artificial intelligence tool that automatically spots cancer spread to the brain on MRI scans. It may help doctors find brain metastases faster and more accurately for people with cancer outside the brain.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT06541275Enrolling by invitation
Shrinking large brain aneurysms after treatment
This trial looks at how well large or giant brain aneurysms shrink over time after a minimally invasive procedure called endovascular intervention. It may help doctors understand which treatments lead to better long-term results.
AstanaAges 18 years+ - NCT05942638Enrolling by invitation
Tracking how concussion affects college driving over time
This study follows young adults who drive to see how a concussion may affect driving abilities over time. You may be asked to complete driving- and health-related assessments, and the results could help improve safety and guidance after concussion.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for brain?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,063 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.
