Recruiting studies
- NCT04541082RecruitingPhase 1
Oral ONC206 for recurrent brain and spinal tumors
This early-phase study tests an oral medicine called ONC206 in adults with recurrent, rare brain or spinal cord tumors. The goal is to find a safe dose and look for signs the treatment can shrink or control the cancer.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07698899RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new treatment for childhood brain and CNS cancers
This trial tests a radioactive drug (177Lu-DTPA-Omburtamab) given directly into the fluid around the brain for children and teens with certain brain cancers or cancers that have spread to the central nervous system. It aims to see if this treatment is safe and effective for tumors that have come back or not responded to other therapies.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 3–22 - NCT05725499Recruiting
Check if skin stimulation lowers blood pressure drops after spinal injury
This study tests a skin “stimulation” treatment to see if it helps stabilize blood pressure in people with spinal cord injury who get low blood pressure when sitting up. If you often have dizziness, faintness, or low readings after changing positions, this trial may help find safer ways to manage it.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18–75 - NCT05731986Recruiting
Skin nerve stimulation to raise blood pressure after spinal injury
This study tests whether a device that delivers mild electrical stimulation through the skin can improve low blood pressure after an acute spinal cord injury. It may help reduce episodes of dizziness or faint-feeling caused by blood pressure dropping when you sit up.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18–75 - NCT06088121Recruiting
TMS with cognitive training for mild Alzheimer's dementia
This study tests a combination of brain stimulation (TMS) and cognitive training to improve memory and thinking in people with mild Alzheimer's. It may help if you are already on a stable dose of a donepezil-type medication and have a confirmed Alzheimer's diagnosis.
Incheon, Bupyeong 6(yuk)-dong, Bupyeong-guAges 60–85 - NCT06358209Recruiting

This study tests whether washing out the infected fluid spaces in the brain (ventricular irrigation) can safely treat a serious brain infection (ventriculitis). It is for adults with a confirmed infection and fever who are stable enough for the procedure.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–65 - NCT06418048Recruiting
Infectious disease registry and biobank trial
This study collects medical information and optional biological samples (like blood or saliva) from people with an active or suspected infection. The goal is to build a large database that can help researchers better understand infectious diseases and develop new ways to diagnose and treat them.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06817577RecruitingPhase 1
Study of NG004 for recent spinal cord injury
This trial tests a new medicine called NG004 for people who have recently had a spinal cord injury in the neck area (cervical spine) and still have some movement and feeling. The goal is to see if it can help improve recovery.
BayreuthAges 18–70 - NCT06871969Recruiting
Testing a brain-wave device for stroke triage in ambulances
This trial is testing a portable EEG device (a non-invasive cap that measures brain activity) to help ambulance staff quickly determine if a patient is having a stroke. It aims to speed up diagnosis and care for people with suspected stroke symptoms.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT07137494RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T-cell therapy for CNS lymphoma
This trial tests a new type of CAR T-cell therapy (MB-CART19.1) for people with central nervous system lymphoma (CNSL) that has come back or not responded to treatment. It aims to see if this therapy can help treat the lymphoma in the brain or spinal fluid.

Zorifertinib for lung cancer that has spread to the brain
This trial tracks how well zorifertinib works as a first treatment for people with a specific type of advanced lung cancer that has spread to the brain or spinal cord lining. Participants may receive zorifertinib or another standard treatment, and researchers will monitor their response over time.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT07188077Recruiting
Study of immune changes in brain lymphoma
This trial looks at the immune system and metabolism of people with primary central nervous system lymphoma (a type of brain cancer) to find differences that might help with future treatments. It does not test a new drug, but collects samples and medical information.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT07364539Recruiting
Local registry of brain and spinal cord infections
This study is a registry that collects information from people treated at the Policlinico San Matteo hospital for infections of the brain or spinal cord. By joining, you help doctors learn more about these conditions.
Pavia, ItaliaAges Any age - NCT07378683Recruiting
Predicting infection risk after brain or spinal tumor surgery
This study is building a tool to predict the risk of surgical site infection after brain or spinal tumor surgery. It may help you understand your personal infection risk before your procedure.
Beijing, PUMCAges Any age - NCT07512518Recruiting
Study of Long-Term Viral Brain Infections
This study follows patients with chronic viral infections affecting the brain and spinal cord. Researchers will collect spinal fluid samples and track your health over one year to better understand these infections and improve care.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 14 years+ - NCT07523737RecruitingPhase 2
Combination drug trial for relapsed brain lymphoma
This trial tests three drugs together—pomalidomide, an anti-PD-1 antibody, and selinexor—to treat primary central nervous system lymphoma (a blood cancer in the brain) that has returned after previous treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink the cancer and help patients live longer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07539441RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Mirdametinib for brain and nervous system tumors
This trial tests a drug called mirdametinib for people with specific types of brain tumors or neurohistiocytosis (a rare condition affecting the nervous system). The drug targets mutations that cause these conditions to grow.

T-DXd for breast cancer that has spread to the brain
This study is looking at how well the drug trastuzumab deruxtecan (Enhertu) works for women and men with HER2-positive breast cancer that has spread to the brain. Researchers want to see how much of the drug gets into the spinal fluid and if it helps shrink brain tumors.

Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT05212129Recruiting
Stimulation of the ear nerve to help gut symptoms
This study tests whether stimulating a nerve in the ear (called auricular vagal nerve stimulation) can improve upper gut symptoms in teens who may have hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS) or hypermobile spectrum disorder (HSD). It also checks whether this treatment helps nerves that control the body (autonomic nervous system) and how well the gut moves.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for central nervous system infections?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 86 recruiting central nervous system infections 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 central nervous system infections 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 central nervous system infections 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.
