Test for early type 1 diabetes in children
This study looks at children who have just started insulin for new-onset type 1 diabetes. It aims to test an intervention early in the course of the disease, which may help change how the immune system and diabetes progress.
Milan, MilanAges 7–17 - NCT05770622RecruitingPhase 4
Vancocin dosing check in young infants with infections
This trial studies a better way to monitor and adjust vancomycin (an antibiotic) dosing in very young infants. It may help your baby get the right dose while reducing the risk of under- or over-dosing.

Study of AML genes and drug response in young patients
This trial looks at how childhood, teen, and young adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) changes at the genetic level and how cells respond to multiple drugs. It may help doctors understand which treatments work best and how leukemia interacts with supportive cells in the bone marrow.
AmiensAges Up to 25 years - NCT05775367Recruiting
Cochlear implants for young children with one-sided deafness
This study checks whether cochlear implants help young children (ages about 7 months to under 3 years) who have very severe hearing loss in one ear. It also compares them with similar children who do not get implants, to understand what outcomes to expect.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 7 months–5.9 years - NCT05780853Recruiting
Game-based testing for young children’s learning and communication
This trial uses a simple, game-like assessment to better understand how young children develop and learn. It may help by creating or improving tools that track development and identify needs earlier.
LondonAges 3–8 - NCT05781295Recruiting
Taurolidine vs saline lock for kids’ central line
This trial studies whether a medicine lock called taurolidine is safer or works better than a standard saline (salt water) lock for pediatric cancer patients with central venous lines. It’s meant to help prevent central-line infections.
ParisAges Up to 21 years - NCT05783323RecruitingPhase 2
Larotrectinib plus radiation for thyroid cancer with NTRK fusion
This Phase 2 trial tests larotrectinib (a targeted medicine) to help radioactive iodine (RAI) work better in people with differentiated thyroid cancer that has an NTRK gene fusion. It may improve how much thyroid cancer the RAI can reach and shrink.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 2–99 - NCT05783375Recruiting
Rheumatic heart prevention program for Ugandan communities
This study helps deliver prevention care for rheumatic heart disease in specific districts of northern Uganda. If you live there (or provide care in the selected clinics), the program may offer extra support to help stop heart damage before it starts.

Testing home vs clinic introduction of milk for babies
This study compares introducing cow’s milk at home versus in a clinic for babies who may have a non-allergy type reaction to cow’s milk. It may help families learn the safest way to reintroduce milk when classic milk allergy tests are negative.
GroningenAges 1 month–1.5 years - NCT05785533Recruiting
Mobile app for recovery after recent ankle sprains
This trial tests whether a smartphone “recovery guidance” app can help children and young adults heal after a recent ankle inversion injury. It may help with home recovery steps and decision-making during the first days after injury.
London, OntarioAges 12–30 - NCT05790785Recruiting
Tests blood vessel changes in kids soon after type 1 diabetes
This study looks at how blood vessels and blood pressure change in children soon after being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. It may help doctors better understand early vascular risk and how to monitor it.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 8–18 - NCT05792007Recruiting
Study of bone marrow environment in childhood leukemia
This study looks at what the bone marrow “microenvironment” is like in children newly diagnosed with acute leukemia, to better understand the disease. It also compares leukemia samples to samples from children having certain orthopedic surgery.
ToursAges 1–15 - NCT05810181Recruiting
Interviews to improve choices about gene therapy for rare diseases
This study uses one-on-one interviews to learn what families and clinicians need to make decisions about gene therapy for rare diseases. The goal is to create or improve decision tools that make gene therapy information easier to understand and act on.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 8 years+ - NCT05814250Recruiting
Ultrasound in children after a first bladder infection
This trial studies whether doing an ultrasound scan after a child’s first febrile urinary tract infection (UTI) is useful. The goal is to see which children might need further attention based on the scan.
FlorenceAges 2 months–3 years - NCT05816174Recruiting
Study of long-term pain after bone surgery in children

BaselAges 8–18 - NCT05825027Recruiting
Sorting out risk in children with a recent concussion

Durham, North CarolinaAges 11–17 - NCT05826158Recruiting
Scans compared for children with neuroblastoma
This trial compares two different nuclear medicine scans to see which one best shows where neuroblastoma is in a child’s body. The results may help doctors choose the most helpful scan for planning care.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 3,111 recruiting children, only 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 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.
