This study looks at how gender-affirming hormone therapy affects brain health and function in transgender adults. Researchers want to understand the effects of these hormones on the brain before and after treatment begins.
Madison, WisconsinAges 18–45 - NCT07624825Recruiting
Emotional Awareness Therapy After Brain Injury
This study tests whether a therapy focused on recognizing and understanding emotions can help people recover better after a moderate or severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). You'll participate if you're at least 6 months past your injury and struggle to identify or describe your feelings.
Edison, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07625462Recruiting

This research study looks at how hearing—whether typical or affected by hearing loss—shapes how children's brains grow and develop. Researchers will compare brain development in children with normal hearing, hearing aids, cochlear implants, and other hearing devices.
ShanghaiAges Up to 18 years - NCT07627334Recruiting
Personalized drug testing for newly diagnosed brain tumors
This trial tests whether customized drug screening on your tumor cells can help doctors choose the best treatment for you. Your tumor cells will be grown in the lab and tested against different drugs to find what works best, combined with short-course radiation therapy.
Vienna, State of ViennaAges Any age - NCT07636720Recruiting
Sleep monitoring with Parkinson's deep brain stimulation device
This study uses a special sensing device in your existing Parkinson's deep brain stimulation implant to monitor your sleep patterns. Researchers want to understand how sleep and the stimulation device interact, which could help improve treatment for Parkinson's patients.
San Antonio, TexasAges 40–80 - NCT07638852RecruitingPhase 2
Radiotherapy with chemotherapy and immunotherapy for triple-negative breast cancer with brain spread
This study tests a combination of radiation therapy, chemotherapy drugs (platinum-based), and two immunotherapy medications (adebrelimab and bevacizumab) for triple-negative breast cancer that has spread to the brain. The goal is to shrink tumors and improve survival when surgery or standard radiation alone isn't an option.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT07640711Recruiting
Brain-Computer Interface for High Spinal Cord Injury
This trial tests a surgically implanted brain-computer interface (BCI) system designed to help people with severe spinal cord injuries regain some ability to move or control devices using their thoughts. The device reads signals directly from the brain to bypass the injured spinal cord.
Utrecht, UtrechtAges 18–70 - NCT07646834Recruiting
Brain-Gut Study of IBS with Anxiety and Depression
This study explores how stress and mood changes affect irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) using brain imaging. Researchers will scan your brain and collect health information to understand the connection between your gut and mental health.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–60 - NCT07649161Recruiting
Nicotinamide Riboside and Brain Energy in Healthy Adults
This study tests whether a vitamin B3-like supplement called nicotinamide riboside can improve how your brain uses energy. Researchers will use brain imaging and blood tests to see if it helps brain function in healthy adults.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–65 - NCT07650253Recruiting
Learning to measure surgical force with a training model
This study tests a new way to measure how much force surgeons apply during a specific brain surgery technique, using a calf brain model and special sensors. It's designed to help train neurosurgeons and improve surgical safety.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT07655310Recruiting
Parent factors and CT use in kids with minor head injury
This study looks at how a parent's background and understanding of health information might affect whether a child with a minor head injury gets a CT scan. It aims to better understand these factors to improve care.
BursaAges Up to 17 years - NCT07662291Recruiting
Effects of forehead nerve stimulation on brain and heart
This study tests how gentle electrical stimulation on your forehead (like a tiny healing patch) affects brain waves and heart rate in healthy people. You will have two MRI scans on different days—one with the device turned on and one with it off—to see if the tingling sensation changes your brain or body activity.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–35 - NCT07667478Recruiting
Brain stimulation study for early Alzheimer's memory loss
This study tests whether a non-invasive magnetic brain stimulation technique can help improve memory in people with early Alzheimer's disease. It may be an option if you have mild cognitive impairment or mild dementia due to Alzheimer's and have had a positive blood test for Alzheimer's markers.
Houston, TexasAges 55–90 - NCT07671261Recruiting
Brain surgery for schizophrenia guided by electrode mapping
This trial tests whether deep brain stimulation (DBS) guided by SEEG (a way to map brain activity with electrodes) can help treat schizophrenia. It is for people with moderate to severe symptoms who have not improved after trying at least two different antipsychotic medications.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–55 - NCT07595666Enrolling by invitation
New PET scanner versus standard PET for head and neck imaging
This study compares a newer PET/CT scanner (called NeuroEXPLORER) with standard PET/CT scanners for imaging the head and neck region. The goal is to see if the new scanner provides better or clearer images to help diagnose conditions.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges 4 weeks+ - NCT07579078Enrolling by invitation

Researchers will measure brain activity using EEG (a non-invasive test that records electrical signals from the brain) before and after vitamin D treatment.
DhakaAges 20–40 - NCT07567989Enrolling by invitation
Home Exercise and Brain Stimulation for MS Fatigue
This study tests whether doing exercises at home combined with a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (gentle electrical stimulation on your scalp) can reduce the exhaustion and tiredness that comes with multiple sclerosis. The goal is to see if this combination helps you feel less fatigued and improves your ability to stay active.

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.
