Kansas City, MissouriAges 14–21 - NCT06630000Recruiting
Short therapy for parents of kids with feeding disorders
This study tests a short, talk-based therapy for parents of young children with feeding disorders. It aims to help parents manage their own stress, anxiety, or depression so they can better support their child.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06641687Recruiting
Sweet comfort for babies during nose scope
This study tests if giving a sweet solution (sucrose) to babies can make a flexible nose scope exam more comfortable. It may help reduce pain and stress during the procedure.

Personalized treatment for NRSTS in children and young adults
This trial tests a personalized treatment plan for children and young adults with a type of soft tissue sarcoma (NRSTS). It uses a combination of surgery, targeted radiation, and two drugs (pazopanib and selinexor) to fight cancer while reducing side effects. The study is looking for people who have not been treated before for this sarcoma.

Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07191119Recruiting
Nerve stimulation for insomnia in childhood leukemia survivors
This study tests a small, wearable device that gently stimulates a nerve in your ear (called the vagus nerve) to help with insomnia. It's designed for adult survivors of childhood leukemia who still have trouble sleeping.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 20–50 - NCT07616154RecruitingPhase 2
Gene-Matched Family Stem Cell Transplant for Severe Sickle Cell
This trial tests whether a stem cell transplant from a partially gene-matched family member can cure severe sickle cell disease in children and young adults. The transplant uses a new approach that may work even when a perfectly matched sibling isn't available, and it might help patients whose sickle cell is causing serious complications like strokes, organ damage, or frequent pain crises.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Up to 22 years - NCT02530658Recruiting
Sequencing children’s tumor and normal tissue samples
This study collects children’s normal and tumor tissue (or blood-related normal samples) and reads their DNA/RNA to look at genetic information. It may help researchers understand cancer-related changes and improve future testing, even when the goal isn’t to treat you directly.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Any age - NCT07257419RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T cells and stem cell transplant for leukemia and lymphoma
This trial tests giving special immune cells (CAR T cells) after a half-matched stem cell transplant. It's for children and young adults with high-risk leukemia or lymphoma that has come back or not responded to treatment.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Up to 21 years - NCT07663539Recruiting
Learning from parents who lost a child to cancer
This study interviews parents who lost a child to cancer at St. Jude. It aims to learn from your experience to improve care for other families.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06533748RecruitingPhase 2
New treatment for kids with B-cell leukemia or lymphoma
This trial tests a new therapy plan for children and teens newly diagnosed with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoma. It aims to improve outcomes for those with higher-risk features.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 1–18 - NCT06390319RecruitingPhase 2
Adding dasatinib or venetoclax for children with T-cell leukemia or lymphoma
This trial tests whether adding either dasatinib or venetoclax to standard chemotherapy can improve outcomes for children aged 1 to 18 with newly diagnosed T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, lymphoblastic lymphoma, or mixed phenotype acute leukemia. It compares the effects of these added drugs to help doctors find better treatment options.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 1–18 - NCT06747910Recruiting
Remote test for nerve problems after childhood cancer
This study tests if a remote, at-home approach can identify problems with the autonomic nervous system (the part that controls heart rate, blood pressure, and digestion) in adult survivors of childhood leukemia or lymphoma. If you join, you will complete a set of simple tasks (the Ewing battery) from home to see how your body responds.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT03050268Recruiting
Study of childhood cancer risk in families
This study looks at inherited (family) risk for childhood cancers, including families with early cancers or known cancer risk conditions. It may help researchers understand why some children get cancer and improve future risk detection and care.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Any age - NCT03353584Recruiting
Virtual reality for pain relief during sickle cell pain crises
This trial tests whether a virtual reality (VR) experience can help reduce pain during a sickle cell “vaso-occlusive crisis,” which is an episode of sudden, severe pain. It’s offered alongside the care team’s usual pain management to see if VR makes pain feel better.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 6–25 - NCT06289673RecruitingPhase 4
Collecting info to start treatment for new leukemia or lymphoma
This study gathers key health information at the start of treatment for children and teens newly diagnosed with certain types of leukemia or lymphoma. The goal is to find the best way to begin therapy right away, without waiting for extra tests.

Rochester, MinnesotaAges 6–21 - NCT04084067RecruitingPhase 1
ICG dye helps surgeons remove tumors
This early-phase study tests whether a special dye can help doctors see a tumor more clearly during surgery in children and young people. If you have a solid tumor or certain lymphomas that need removal, the dye may help guide the surgeon to the right tissue.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Any age - NCT04176094Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for hospitalized children?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,225 recruiting hospitalized children 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 hospitalized children 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 hospitalized children 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.
