Recruiting studies
- NCT06565910RecruitingPhase 4
Pain relief after hip surgery: long-acting vs standard numbing medicine
This study tests if a long-acting numbing medicine (bupivacaine liposome) combined with a standard numbing medicine works better for pain control after hip fracture surgery. It compares two different combinations to see which provides more effective pain relief.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–60 - NCT04730622Recruiting
Studying muscle and bone changes after a hip fracture
This study looks at how bone health and muscle strength (“osteosarcopenia” — loss of both bone and muscle) change after a hip fracture in older adults. It may help doctors understand who is at higher risk and how to better support recovery after hip surgery.
BolognaAges 65 years+ - NCT04076735Recruiting
Compare fixing vs replacing certain leg bone fractures in seniors
This trial studies which operation works better for an acute distal femur (upper knee area) fracture in older adults: repairing/fixing it versus replacing the joint/bone. It may help find the safest approach and improve walking and recovery for people in this situation.
Toronto, OntarioAges 65 years+ - NCT04851509Recruiting
Testing a special screw-locking nail for hip fractures
This trial studies a specific way of fixing certain hip (upper thigh) fractures using a metal nail with locking screws. It may help improve how well fractures heal and how stable the repair is.
New Westminster, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07392515Recruiting
Digital rehab for hip fracture recovery in older adults
This trial tests whether a digital rehabilitation program can help older adults recover their thinking and movement skills after hip fracture surgery. It uses sensors and digital tools to guide therapy, making it easier to do from a rehabilitation ward.
Messina, ItalyAges 65–89 - NCT07738458Recruiting
Robot-assisted surgery for hip fracture repair
This study tests whether using a robot to help fix a broken hip (specifically a type of fracture called intertrochanteric) leads to better recovery. The robot assists the surgeon in placing a metal nail inside the bone to hold it together while it heals.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT05680987Recruiting
Surgery method study for certain thighbone fractures
This study looks at a specific surgical fixation method (how the thighbone pieces are held together) for distal femur or femoral shaft fractures. It aims to compare outcomes and see if this approach works well, especially by tracking results after surgery.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04494672Recruiting
Testing navigation-guided surgery for broken hip fractures
This study checks whether using a navigation system during surgery for certain hip (upper thigh bone) fractures can make the operation better. You may be eligible if you need a specific type of hip fracture surgery and meet the age and imaging requirements.
LuganoAges 50–85 - NCT07513740Recruiting
Pain relief methods for hip fracture surgery
This trial compares two different nerve-block techniques (pain-relief injections) to see which one works better for patients having surgery to repair a broken hip. Both methods numb the area around the hip so you feel less pain during and after surgery.
Erzincan, Merkez/TürkiyeAges 18–75 - NCT05339360Recruiting
Study of an antibiotic-coated thighbone nail after femur fracture
This study looks at a specific type of thighbone (femur) nail that helps prevent infection, placed during fracture surgery. You may be able to join if you’re having surgery for a femur fracture or needing an osteotomy and your treatment plan includes this nail.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for femur fracture?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 34 recruiting femur fracture 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 femur fracture 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 femur fracture 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.
