- NCT06952764Enrolling by invitation
ECLIPSE: Tracking epilepsy cycles to predict seizures
This trial tests if tracking your brain activity with an implanted device can help predict when seizures might happen. It is for adults who have seizures despite medication and already have the RNS System implanted.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04545762RecruitingPhase 1
Anti-CD19 CAR-T for certain relapsed lymphoma
This Phase 1 study tests an anti-CD19 CAR-T cell treatment in adults with specific types of relapsed or treatment-resistant non-Hodgkin lymphoma. It may help by finding and attacking lymphoma cells that carry the CD19 marker, but it’s early-stage and eligibility is strict.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05327387Recruiting
Brain stimulation study using implanted electrodes
This study tests a model-based way of using electrical brain stimulation in people who are having surgery for drug-resistant epilepsy or brain tumors. It uses implanted electrodes to measure brain activity and may help improve how stimulation is planned during surgical care.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07680842Recruiting
Non-invasive ultrasound for drug-resistant epilepsy
This study tests a non-invasive focused ultrasound treatment for people with epilepsy that doesn't respond to medications. The goal is to see if this gentle ultrasound can reduce seizures without surgery.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 21–65 - NCT07110337Recruiting
Diagnosing epilepsy to help guide treatment
This trial tests a new device to help diagnose epilepsy in people whose previous EEG brain monitoring did not give clear answers. If you have drug-resistant epilepsy with at least one seizure a month on average, this study may help find better treatment options.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT07110454Recruiting
Long-term follow-up study for epilepsy monitoring implant
This study follows people who previously enrolled in the DETECT study and had a Minder device implanted to monitor brain activity. The goal is to see how the device performs over a longer period of time.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT06132893RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing BHV-7000 for hard-to-control focal seizures in adults
This study tests a new medicine called BHV-7000 for adults whose focal seizures (starting in one part of the brain) are not controlled by current treatments. The goal is to see if it can reduce seizures safely.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT06063850RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy for adults with hard-to-control epilepsy
This trial tests a one-time gene therapy (AMT-260) for adults whose seizures start in one area of the brain (the temporal lobe) and aren't controlled by medication. The goal is to see if it's safe and reduces seizure frequency.

What taking part in a epilepsy (treatment refractory) study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
