T-cells made to fight a specific virus
This Phase 2 study gives you special “virus-targeting” immune cells (T-cells) to help your body control a current viral infection or virus that has come back (reactivated). It may help reduce the virus activity while you are immunocompromised, meaning your immune system is weaker than usual.
Akron, OhioAges 2 days+ - NCT02552511Recruiting
Study of seizures in newborns and how often they occur
This study looks at newborns (up to 28 days old) who have seizures to understand them better, using EEG brain-wave testing. If you agree to participate and can follow the study plan, your child’s information may help researchers learn more about neonatal seizures.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges Up to 4 weeks - NCT02708134Recruiting
Study of CPR quality in children and young adults
This trial looks at how well CPR (chest compressions) is done during an emergency resuscitation in children and young adults. The goal is to understand what helps improve care during life-saving resuscitation.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges birth–18 years - NCT02523118Recruiting

Near-infrared monitoring to guide cooling in newborns
This study tests a special, non-invasive sensor (near-infrared light) to help doctors choose the best cooling treatment for some newborns after brain injury. It may improve how well cooling works and how safely it’s managed in the first week of life.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Up to 2 years - NCT02986087Recruiting
FETO balloon procedure for severe congenital diaphragmatic hernia
This trial studies a fetal procedure called FETO (placing a small balloon in the baby’s windpipe) to help severe congenital diaphragmatic hernia babies develop better lungs before birth. It may help some babies whose scans suggest very limited lung growth, but it requires specific timing and pregnancy conditions.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18–50 - NCT03178630Recruiting
MRI scans to track outcomes in children with autoimmune liver disease
This study uses MRI scans to find “biomarkers,” or imaging clues, that may help predict how autoimmune liver conditions will progress in children and young adults. If you qualify, you may get MRI imaging to see whether it relates to future health outcomes.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 6–23 - NCT02964494Recruiting
Congenital anemia registry for congenital dyserythropoietic anemia
This study is a registry that collects medical and lab information from people with congenital dyserythropoietic anemia (CDA), a lifelong type of anemia that can cause jaundice. It helps doctors better understand the condition and its causes, including in families where it runs.
Cincinnati, OhioAges Any age - NCT06534359Recruiting
Gastric vs transpyloric feeding for BPD
This study compares two ways of feeding premature babies with lung disease (BPD) who still need breathing support: feeding through a tube into the stomach (gastric) versus past the stomach into the small intestine (transpyloric). The goal is to see which feeding method helps these babies grow better and avoid problems.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 1 month–1 year - NCT02579044Enrolling by invitationPhase 1/Phase 2
Everolimus plus lonafarnib for children with progeria
This trial tests whether adding everolimus to ongoing lonafarnib improves health and slows complications in people with genetically confirmed progeria. It mainly checks safety and early signs of benefit in Phase I/II.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 1.5 years–25 years - NCT01832324Enrolling by invitation
Study the causes of food allergy using blood samples
This study looks for the biological reasons behind food allergies by collecting a small amount of blood. It may help scientists better understand different types of food allergy and eventually improve diagnosis or treatments.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 1 month–65 years - NCT02040714Enrolling by invitation
Study of current treatments for Perthes hip disease
This study follows children (and teens) with Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease to learn about how today’s treatments work in real life. It may help doctors choose the best next steps for your child’s hip health.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1–18 - NCT07400783Recruiting
Study of short bowel syndrome in children
This study looks at short bowel syndrome in children who have had intestinal surgery. It may help doctors understand how to better treat this condition.

Calgary, AlbertaAges Up to 18 years - NCT07412782Recruiting
REMS bone scan study for children with bone conditions
This study uses a new ultrasound technology called REMS to check bone health in children aged 5 to 18 who have conditions that weaken bones. It may help find low bone density without radiation.
Florence, TuscanyAges 5–18 - NCT07417085Recruiting
Study of gut bacteria in children with brain tumors
