- NCT07770035Enrolling by invitation
School-age outcomes after newborn brain injury
This study looks at how children who had a brain injury around birth (called hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy, or HIE) are doing in school and daily life, compared to children without that history. It aims to understand the long-term effects and support needs.

Predicting brain outcomes in newborns with mild oxygen loss
This study uses brain monitoring and oxygen measurements in newborns who had a mild lack of oxygen at birth to see if these tests can predict how the baby will develop. The goal is to find early signs that might help guide care.
BursaAges birth–6 hours - NCT07527104Recruiting
Bone marrow cells and rehabilitation for cerebral palsy in young children
This trial tests whether transplanting cells from a child's own bone marrow, combined with rehabilitation therapy, can improve movement and function in young children with cerebral palsy caused by birth-related brain injury or bleeding. The goal is to see if this approach helps children move better and become more independent.
Hanoi, HanoiAges 6 months–18 years - NCT07732244Recruiting
Testing a wireless brain oxygen monitor in the NICU
This study is testing a new wireless device that monitors oxygen levels in the brain. It is for babies already using a similar wired monitor, to see if the wireless version works just as well.
Montreal, QuebecAges Any age - NCT07628829Recruiting

Testing cooling treatment after lack of oxygen at birth
This trial studies outcomes in newborns who had breathing problems from low oxygen before or during birth and were treated with a cooling therapy (therapeutic hypothermia). It may help doctors understand which babies benefit most and what recovery looks like over time.
RomeAges 10 minutes–6 hours - NCT05778188RecruitingPhase 2
RLS-0071 for newborns with moderate or severe HIE
This trial studies whether RLS-0071 is safe and can help some newborns with moderate or severe hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), a brain injury caused by low oxygen around birth. Babies in the study also receive standard whole-body cooling (therapeutic hypothermia), and the researchers will watch for side effects and early signs of benefit.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges Up to 10 hours - NCT05836610RecruitingPhase 4
Testing hydrocortisone dosing during newborn cooling
This Phase 4 trial studies the best way to give hydrocortisone (a steroid medicine) to newborns who are being cooled for a specific kind of birth-related lack of oxygen. It’s for babies who have low blood pressure during cooling, aiming to improve their stability while they receive standard treatment.
Budapest, Pest CountyAges Up to 3 days - NCT05971446Recruiting
Healthy Little Eyes study for newborn vision and brain health
This study looks at eye and vision outcomes in babies who have had lack of oxygen around birth (HIE) and also compares them with healthy “well babies.” It may help doctors better understand how HIE affects the eyes and what to watch for over time.
Madison, WisconsinAges Up to 3 years - NCT06195345Recruiting
Brain oxygen study for children having an MRI
This study looks at oxygen levels in the brains of children and young adults (birth to 18 years) during a standard MRI. The goal is to learn more about how the brain works, and it only adds a few minutes to your child's regular MRI scan.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 1 minute–18 years - NCT02260271Enrolling by invitation
Study for newborns with severe oxygen-related brain injury
This trial is for newborn babies who had an oxygen shortage around birth and now have severe brain injury. It aims to test approaches that may help improve outcomes after this kind of early-life brain damage.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 1 day–3 weeks - NCT07413900Recruiting
Brain injury study for babies and toddlers
This study looks at biomarkers (biological signs) in infants who had a brain injury around birth or were born very early, and compares them with healthy babies. The goal is to learn more about brain injuries and recovery.
Madison, WisconsinAges 3 months–2 years - NCT07464938Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 24 recruiting hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy 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 hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy 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 hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy 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.
