Physical activity program for kids during cancer treatment
This trial tests whether a structured physical activity program can help children and teens feel better and stay active during cancer treatment or shortly after. It involves the child and a parent/caregiver for safety during sessions.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 5–18 - NCT04959097Recruiting
CHLA retinoblastoma database and tissue study
This study collects medical information and, when available, tissue samples from children with retinoblastoma treated at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. It may help doctors learn more about the disease and improve future care.

New Wilms tumor treated with proton beam abdominal radiation
This trial studies a specific type of radiation (proton beam) given to the abdomen after surgery and/or chemotherapy in children and young people with newly diagnosed Wilms tumor. The goal is to improve cancer control while carefully targeting radiation to the right stage of disease.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Any age - NCT04971850Recruiting
Sleep study for children with possible breathing sleep problems
This trial looks at sleep-related breathing problems (“sleep-disordered breathing”) in children and young adults and how they may affect thinking and memory using sleep study testing plus neurocognitive (thinking) assessments. It may help doctors better understand symptoms and identify who could benefit from treatment.
ParisAges 1–20 - NCT04978571Recruiting
Electrical nerve stimulation for long-lasting concussion symptoms
This study tests whether a device that delivers gentle electrical signals to nerves through the skin can help children and teens with concussion symptoms that have lasted at least 3 months. You may be asked to attend clinic visits for the nerve stimulation setup if you meet the safety and scheduling requirements.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 11–18 - NCT04989790Recruiting
Early mobility program for critically ill children in the PICU
This trial tests whether a structured “early mobility” activity plan (“PICU Up!”) helps children who are on a breathing machine recover or feel better while in the pediatric ICU. It aims to see if starting safe movement earlier makes a difference for critically ill kids.
Madera, CaliforniaAges Up to 18 years - NCT04991389RecruitingPhase 4
Test a breathing study plan for kids with sleep apnea after surgery
This trial studies how to improve outcomes for children who still have obstructive sleep apnea after having their tonsils and adenoids removed. It uses computer modeling (based on breathing/airflow) and may include a special breathing gas during testing in some parts of the study.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 3–18 - NCT04995562RecruitingPhase 4
MRI breathing scan in NICU babies using a special gas
This trial uses a special MRI breathing scan (with a safe, trace gas) to look at how babies’ lungs are developing. It may help doctors understand lung function and recovery in NICU infants.

Study tracking health and immunity from pregnancy to your child
This study follows healthy pregnant people during pregnancy and then checks children’s health and immune system development. You may be able to join if you’re an adult with a single, healthy pregnancy and you can consent.

- How do I know if I qualify for a children, only 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 children, only 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.
