Recruiting studies
- NCT05374590Enrolling by invitationPhase 2/Phase 3
Long-term safety study of efgartigimod for young myasthenia gravis patients
This trial checks the long-term safety of efgartigimod given through an IV and as a quick under-the-skin injection in children with generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG). It may help your care team understand how safely this treatment can be used over time for kids who already took related study treatments.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 2–18 - NCT05308927Enrolling by invitation
Registry for children with Noonan syndrome on growth hormone
This trial is a real-world registry that collects information about children with Noonan syndrome who are treated with Norditropin (a growth hormone). It helps researchers understand how these children do over time in routine care.
AngersAges Any age - NCT05238909Enrolling by invitation
Tracking tumor burden in people with NF1
This study looks for better ways to measure how much tumor activity people with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) have over time. The goal is to develop “biomarkers,” which are test results that may help doctors track disease more easily.
Chicago, IllinoisAges Any age - NCT05204446Enrolling by invitation
Behavior program for teens with celiac disease
This study tests a behavioral (coaching-style) program to help teens manage celiac disease. It may help by supporting teens and their parent/guardian with habits and coping skills.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 12–16 - NCT05161078Enrolling by invitation
Studies CARPEDIEM care for newborns and babies in participating hospitals
This trial looks at how to improve outcomes for newborns and infants who receive CARPEDIEM as part of routine hospital care. It aims to see whether an interdisciplinary team approach can make treatment safer and more effective.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT05145010Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Infigratinib follow-up for children with achondroplasia
This trial studies how well infigratinib works and remains safe for children with achondroplasia. It includes children who already took infigratinib in a prior QED study, and some who are starting treatment for the first time.
Oakland, CaliforniaAges 3–18 - NCT05084937Enrolling by invitation
Study on celiac disease from teens into adulthood
This trial looks at how people with celiac disease transition from childhood into adulthood, using questionnaires. It also includes people without celiac disease for comparison, to help researchers understand similarities and differences during these teen years.
KuopioAges 13–19 - NCT05011071Enrolling by invitation
Alberta BLOOM study for very premature newborns
This study follows babies born very early and their parents to learn about early health and development. It may help doctors better understand what babies need after a premature birth.
Calgary, AlbertaAges birth+ - NCT04987840Enrolling by invitation
Hospital program to reduce unnecessary lung culture tests in kids
This trial studies a hospital quality-improvement program that aims to use fewer “respiratory culture” tests in pediatric intensive care units (PICUs). It may help reduce unnecessary testing while maintaining good care for critically ill children.
Baltimore, MarylandAges Any age - NCT04840017Enrolling by invitation
Rehab program for balance and walking in flexible flatfeet
This trial tests whether a rehabilitation exercise program can improve balance and walking in children who have flexible flatfeet. The goal is to see if targeted rehab improves posture, stability, and gait (how your child walks).
GdanskAges 7–12 - NCT04836390Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Donor immune cell treatment after transplant for high-risk AML
This trial tests an additional immune therapy made from donor natural killer (NK) cells given around the time of a special stem cell transplant for children and young adults with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML). It aims to help prevent the leukemia from coming back or not responding after transplant.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges birth–25 years - NCT04833907Enrolling by invitationPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy study for typical Canavan disease in children
This early-phase trial tests a gene therapy medicine (delivered by a one-time infusion) for children with typical Canavan disease. It aims to improve safety and help evaluate whether the treatment may benefit children over time.
Dayton, OhioAges 3 months–5 years - NCT04734626Enrolling by invitation
Leg MRI study for mitochondrial muscle weakness
This study uses an MRI scan of the lower leg to look for signs of muscle problems in people with suspected or confirmed mitochondrial disease, and compares them with healthy volunteers. Participants will lie still in the MRI and do a short, mild exercise during the scan to help the researchers see how muscles work.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 7–75 - NCT03862274Enrolling by invitation
Study of development in children with CLN2 due to TPP1 changes
This study looks at how children’s development progresses in CLN2 disease caused by a specific enzyme problem (TPP1). It may help doctors better understand outcomes and guide future care for children with this diagnosis.
Columbus, OhioAges Any age - NCT03541785Enrolling by invitation
Using NGAL to guide fluids and start kidney-filtering in children
This study tests whether measuring a urine protein called NGAL can help doctors choose the right fluid amount and decide when to start a kidney-filtering treatment called CRRT in critically ill children with kidney injury. If it works, it may help treat kidney problems sooner and more safely.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 3 months–25 years - NCT03465657Enrolling by invitation
Study of salt intake in Spanish schoolchildren
This study measures how much salt (sodium) children in Spain typically eat and how their bodies respond. It looks for a representative group of children, so results reflect what many kids are like.
MadridAges 7–11 - NCT03413566Enrolling by invitation
Studying health issues in children with cerebral palsy
This study is looking at how common different health problems are in children with cerebral palsy, and which problems often happen together. It may help clinicians plan better care by understanding the most frequent additional needs.
Ages 5–18 - NCT03369353Enrolling by invitation
Personalized immune testing study for bowel and transplant patients
This study looks at whether a precise lab test can help understand inflammatory bowel disease, functional gut disorders, and immune changes after stem cell transplant or cell therapy. It may help doctors choose better monitoring and treatments based on your immune and gut test results.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT03176836Enrolling by invitation
TP53 mutation imaging study for Li-Fraumeni syndrome
This study takes special body images (MRI) in people from families with Li-Fraumeni syndrome, especially those who carry a TP53 gene mutation. The goal is to see whether MRI can help spot problems earlier in a higher-risk group.
Toronto, OntarioAges Up to 18 years - NCT03054792Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
MRI test to map low-oxygen areas in childhood sarcomas
This Phase 1 study uses special MRI scans to look at “low-oxygen” parts of a childhood sarcoma. It aims to help doctors better understand the tumor before standard treatment that may include chemotherapy and sometimes radiation.
Toronto, OntarioAges 6–18

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for children?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 3,092 recruiting children 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 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 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.
