Recruiting studies
- NCT05297734Recruiting
Study compares two cancer support care plans
This study tests two different ways of providing supportive care for adults with cancer to see which one works better. It may help improve comfort, support, and care coordination during treatment.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05298748Recruiting

Falun, Dalarna CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT05303415Recruiting
Low-intensity ultrasound study during brain MRI
This study tests how low-power focused ultrasound changes brain signals measured during MRI. You may help researchers understand how ultrasound can affect brain activity, even if you don’t have a known brain condition.
Roanoke, VirginiaAges 18–65 - NCT05303649Recruiting
Theta burst brain stimulation for language problems after stroke
This study tests whether a type of brain stimulation guided by a brain scan (MRI) can improve speech and language (“aphasia”) after a stroke. It may help people who have trouble producing speech but can still understand others’ words.
Warsaw, Masovian VoivodeshipAges 18–75 - NCT05313620RecruitingPhase 4
Tofacitinib effect on clotting tests in ulcerative colitis
This study looks at how tofacitinib (and related medicines) may affect clotting and blood-platelet function, and whether this could relate to blood clot risk. It includes detailed blood and stool/colonoscopy-related testing in adults with ulcerative colitis and in some people without it.
Madrid, MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT05315726Recruiting
Vibration therapy to reduce stiffness after stroke

Chalon-sur-SaôneAges 18 years+ - NCT05319158Recruiting
Movement imitation therapy for very premature baby movement quality
This study tests whether “movement imitation therapy” can improve how a preterm baby moves. It looks at specific movement patterns in babies born very early, aiming to help motor (movement) development.
Barcelona, BarcelonaAges 5 months–7 months - NCT05318417Recruiting
Cochlear implant study for one-sided deafness
This study checks whether cochlear implantation is safe and effective for people who have very poor hearing in one ear (single-sided deafness) while the other ear hears normally or nearly normally. You may be enrolled if you meet specific hearing test and health/surgery readiness requirements.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 5 years+ - NCT05319483Recruiting
Study of new head and neck cancer patients
This study enrolls adults with a first-time head and neck cancer diagnosis and collects health and treatment information to better understand the disease. It may help clinicians improve care by learning which treatments and patient features matter most.
Pécs, BaranyaAges Any age - NCT05320796RecruitingPhase 4
Esomeprazole study after gastric bypass and pouch acid levels
This trial tests how well esomeprazole (a acid-reducing medicine) works after a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, and how it changes the acidity in the stomach pouch. It may help confirm the best way to control stomach acid after bypass surgery.
Schlieren, SchlierenAges 18 years+ - NCT05322213RecruitingPhase 1
THC study for blood sugar control in type 2 diabetes
This early-phase study tests how THC (the main cannabis ingredient) affects blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes. It may help researchers understand whether THC changes glucose control and what risks come with it.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 21–70 - NCT05323383Recruiting
Brief mindfulness and hypnosis for ongoing pain relief
This trial studies whether brief mindfulness meditation or hypnosis can help people who live with long-lasting or recurring pain. It also looks at how these approaches might reduce pain over time.
Brisbane, QueenslandAges 18 years+ - NCT05323916Recruiting
Intensive rehab program after a first stroke
This trial tests whether an intensive, day-long rehabilitation program can improve recovery after a first ischemic stroke. It focuses on people with mild to moderate disability who can safely handle several hours of therapy each day.
PragueAges 18–85 - NCT05325424Recruiting
Laparoscopic spleen surgery for people with cirrhosis
This study looks at whether removing the spleen using keyhole surgery can improve “liver reserve function” in people with cirrhosis. It may be considered for patients who have an enlarged spleen and very low platelets, but it also has several safety exclusions.
Yangzhou, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT05325437Recruiting
Laparoscopic spleen surgery to protect liver function in cirrhosis
This trial looks at whether a minimally invasive spleen surgery (with a specific vein-disconnection procedure) can better protect liver function in people with cirrhosis who have had variceal bleeding. It may help reduce stress on the liver after treatment, but you must meet several safety criteria.
Yangzhou, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT05326295Recruiting
Breast cancer study using tumor cells in blood
This trial checks whether a blood test that looks at tumor cells can help guide treatment for people with breast cancer. If you join, your care team will follow your responses over time to see if this “phenotype surveillance” approach is useful.
Changsha, HunanAges 18–75 - NCT05327543Recruiting
Online yoga program for better quality of life
This study tests whether doing online yoga can improve quality of life in people with non-metastatic breast cancer. It’s meant to help with day-to-day well-being after cancer treatment.
Berlin, State of BerlinAges 18–75 - NCT05331534Recruiting
Attentional therapy for PTSD symptoms after trauma
This trial studies whether a therapy focused on attention can reduce post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms. You may qualify if you have PTSD diagnosed by standard questionnaires and interviews, and if you can safely take part in the therapy sessions.
LilleAges 18–60 - NCT05332457Recruiting
Beta-blocker effects on heart rate and exercise capacity in atrial fibrillation
This study looks at how taking a beta-blocker affects your resting heart rate during activity and how fit your heart and lungs are during an exercise test. It may help clarify whether the way the medication controls heart rate is linked to better exercise tolerance in people with persistent atrial fibrillation.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT05336084Recruiting
Study how sleep timing affects mood and thinking in teens
This study looks at how your body clock and sleep “pressure” affect reward feelings and thinking control. It may help researchers understand teen sleep patterns and how they connect to brain and behavior.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 13–18 - NCT05338294Recruiting
Tested surgery to help immune function in cirrhosis
This study looks at whether a type of keyhole spleen surgery plus cutting a large vein can improve immune function in people with cirrhosis. It may help reduce immune problems that can happen after complications like bleeding from varices (enlarged veins in the esophagus/stomach).
Yangzhou, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT05339529Recruiting
Thymosin A1 to help protect organs after emergency aortic surgery
This study looks at whether thymosin A1 can reduce immune-related problems and organ injury after emergency surgery for an acute aortic condition. If you qualify, you may receive thymosin A1 as part of the treatment plan to see if it improves recovery.
Bengbu, AnhuiAges 18–90 - NCT05341141Recruiting
Cold therapy plus compression to prevent nerve damage from chemo
This trial tests whether using cold therapy (cryotherapy) together with compression can lower the chance of numbness, tingling, or pain in the hands and feet caused by chemotherapy. It may help people planning chemotherapy for breast cancer stay more comfortable and function better.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for effectiveness?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 6,871 recruiting effectiveness 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 effectiveness 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 effectiveness 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.
