Recruiting studies
- NCT04320251Enrolling by invitation
Testing tissue changes during cochlear implant revision surgery
This study looks at how tissue heals or changes in people who are getting a revision cochlear implant surgery. It may help doctors better understand healing and improve future care for cochlear implant users.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT03388606Recruiting
Studying adolescent depression and how to treat it
This study looks closely at how depression shows up in teens and tests approaches to treatment. It may help teens and families better understand depression and get access to structured care as part of research.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 11–25 - NCT03338387Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Test effects of gut hormones in bulimia
This trial studies how growth-related and gut hormones affect ghrelin, a hunger-related hormone, in people with bulimia. It may help researchers understand the body changes behind bulimia and how hormones and appetite signals work.
Ages 18–30 - NCT02769975Recruiting
Check children and teens with hormone and metabolism problems
This study evaluates children (and sometimes relatives) who may have hormone (endocrine) or metabolism-related conditions. It helps doctors better understand these problems by doing a clinical evaluation.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3 months–100 years - NCT02390765Recruiting
Study of growth, weight, and behavior in children
This study looks at how children’s growth and weight relate to thinking, mood, and behavior. It may help researchers understand what patterns affect health and development so they can guide better support for families.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 8–100 - NCT02639312Recruiting
Study of how craniofacial differences develop over time
This study follows children and adults with craniofacial (head/face) differences to learn how their growth changes over time. It also enrolls unaffected family members and healthy volunteers to compare what is “typical,” using scans and optional genetic testing.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–100 - NCT02382601Recruiting
Study of pregnancies with slow fetal growth
This study follows pregnancies where the baby appears smaller than expected on ultrasound. It may help researchers better understand why this happens and how to monitor care over time.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–45 - NCT00903110Recruiting
Long-term safety registry for Increlex in children
This study is a registry that follows children and teens with severe IGF-1 deficiency who use Increlex (or specific GH gene deletion situations) to better track long-term safety and effectiveness. You would likely join if your child is already starting or planning Increlex and is not in other growth-related drug trials.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for growth?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 296 recruiting growth 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 growth 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 growth 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.
