This study tests a new surgical screw designed to fix hip fractures more securely, helping you regain strength and move better after surgery. It is for people who broke only a specific part of the hip and were walking well before their injury.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 55 years+ - NCT05943782Enrolling by invitation
Digital onlay fillings made two ways for back teeth

CairoAges 18–50 - NCT05361980Recruiting
Study of safety and results of a pediatric bone implant
This study looks at whether a specific pediatric bone implant is safe and works well for children who need it. By joining, you help researchers track outcomes over time and understand possible implant-related side effects.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges birth–25 years - 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.
Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Santa Cruz de TenerifeAges 18 years+ - NCT05866029Recruiting
Prevention and treatment study for new brittle bone fractures
This study looks at ways to prevent and treat “brittle bone” refractures after a recent fracture in people with osteoporosis. If you’ve had a new hip, spine, or other bone fracture, the trial may test strategies to lower the chance of another fracture.
BeijingAges 45–90 - NCT05732870Recruiting
Study looks for blood and gene signals that affect bone health
This study collects information and samples around the time of certain bone or joint surgeries (like joint replacement or fracture repair) to learn what factors help or harm bone healing. The results may help find better targets to improve long-term bone health and recovery.
London, Greater LondonAges 18–110 - NCT05729542Recruiting
Suture button vs Fibulink for acute ankle ligament injury
This study compares two different surgical devices used to fix a torn ankle ligament (called the syndesmosis) after an ankle fracture. If you may need surgery for this specific injury, the results could help show which device leads to better recovery.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05657899Recruiting
Olecranon fracture surgery with or without K-wires
This trial studies whether using small metal K-wires during surgery for certain elbow (olecranon) fractures improves outcomes compared with not using them. You may be eligible if your injury matches the trial’s fracture type and surgery timing, and you can attend follow-up visits and answer questionnaires.
Lund, Skåne CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT05650996RecruitingPhase 1
Early hand therapy participation after broken wrist
This Phase 1 study looks at whether starting hand activity soon after a distal radius fracture helps improve recovery outcomes. You may be able to join if your broken wrist is treated with a cast and you can report your symptoms and function reliably in English.
Washington, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05603728Recruiting
Follow-up study for Exactech shoulder implants after surgery

Antibiotic beads versus negative pressure dressing for severe leg fractures
This Phase 3 study compares two ways to help heal a severe open tibia (shin bone) fracture and prevent complications like infection. If you qualify, you may receive antibiotic beads or a negative pressure wound therapy dressing after urgent wound cleaning.
Chandler, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT03024008RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of bone-healing paste from your own cells for broken bones
This trial tests a bone-healing product made from your own tissue (“autologous BonoFill-II”) to help heal difficult fractures or bone gaps that aren’t healing on their own. It’s designed for people who have a serious bone injury in an arm or leg that needs stronger support to regenerate.

- How do I know if I qualify for a 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 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.
