Recruiting studies
- NCT07857798Recruiting
How your body traits relate to growth and development
This study looks at how different physical traits, like height and body shape, relate to growth and development. By participating, you'll help researchers understand normal human variation, which may improve future health care.

Understanding growth hormone problems after brain injury
This study looks at how a traumatic brain injury might affect your body's growth hormone, which is important for energy, strength, and overall health. If you've had a brain injury and still have symptoms a year later, you may be able to help researchers learn more and possibly find better treatments.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18–70 - NCT06091371Recruiting

BolognaAges 8–14 - NCT07779421Recruiting
Healing bone after wisdom tooth removal
This study tests whether using a patient's own blood products can help bone heal better after removing a wisdom tooth. It may help reduce the gap left behind and protect the nearby molar.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–60 - NCT07769957Recruiting
Brain scans for babies with slow growth in the womb
This study uses a special type of MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) to look at the brain development of babies who are growing slowly in the womb. The goal is to see if this scan can help doctors better understand this condition and how to care for these babies.
IstanbulAges 18–45 - NCT07574398Recruiting
Growth and Development Study After Infant Liver Transplant
This study tracks how babies grow and develop after receiving a liver transplant. Researchers want to understand how transplantation affects children's physical growth and overall development in early infancy.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges Up to 1 year - NCT07558538RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Inhaled Growth Factor Treatment for Severe Lung Failure
This early-stage trial tests whether an inhaled medication called recombinant human keratinocyte growth factor-2 (rh-KGF-2) can help patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)—a serious condition where the lungs cannot deliver enough oxygen to the blood. The drug is designed to help repair lung tissue damage.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07551804RecruitingPhase 2
Growth hormone replacement therapy safety and effectiveness study
This study tests a new injectable growth hormone treatment for adults whose bodies don't produce enough growth hormone naturally. Researchers will measure how safe it is, how your body processes it, and whether it helps you feel better and function more normally.
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT07549295Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Melatonin to help babies grow better in the womb
This study tests whether melatonin (a natural sleep hormone) can help babies who are not growing well in the womb due to placental blood-flow problems. Researchers will measure if melatonin improves the baby's growth and health before delivery.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 20–43 - NCT07534735Recruiting
Testing a New Stage 3 Infant Formula for Growth and Health
This study tests whether a new infant formula helps toddlers grow well and stay healthy. Researchers will compare infants who receive this formula with others to see if it supports normal development.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 1 year–1.5 years - NCT07483424Enrolling by invitation
Growth restriction in full-term babies: body composition study
This study looks at how body composition differs in full-term babies who had intrauterine growth restriction. It may help doctors better understand and care for these infants.
LisbonAges 9 months–9 months - NCT07473739Recruiting
AI ultrasound for predicting pregnancy outcomes in early FGR
This study uses artificial intelligence (AI) to analyze ultrasound images and predict pregnancy outcomes for babies with early-onset fetal growth restriction (FGR) caused by placenta problems. If you are carrying a single baby with this condition and your doctor is continuing to monitor the pregnancy without immediate delivery, this trial may apply to you.
ShanghaiAges 20–43 - NCT05447208RecruitingPhase 3
Testing growth hormone to improve embryo chromosome screening results
This Phase 3 study tests whether growth hormone given during IVF can improve the chance of getting embryos with the “right” number of chromosomes, which is checked by PGT-A. It may help some people who are 38 or older planning chromosome testing of embryos.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 38 years+ - NCT07401368Enrolling by invitation
Do doctors trust AI for fetal growth estimates?
This trial surveys doctors and midwives to learn how much they trust an AI tool that estimates fetal growth during pregnancy. Your answers could help improve how AI is used in prenatal care.
SlagelseAges Any age - NCT06893926Recruiting
Cord blood S100B protein in growth-restricted newborns
This study measures a protein called S100B in umbilical cord blood to learn more about brain development in newborns with fetal growth restriction (FGR), a condition where a baby is smaller than expected. Understanding this protein could help doctors identify babies who may need extra support after birth.
WarsawAges 18 years+ - NCT07264595RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of GS3-007a for children with growth hormone deficiency
This trial tests an oral medication called GS3-007a for children who have not yet reached puberty and have growth hormone deficiency. The goal is to see if it helps them grow taller.

- 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.
