Registry for children getting robotic spine surgery
This trial registry collects information about kids and teens with spine deformities who are scheduled for robotic or navigation-assisted surgery (sometimes using custom rods). It may help doctors improve these advanced techniques over time.
Bethlehem, PennsylvaniaAges birth–21 years - NCT06626503RecruitingPhase 3
Pain medicine study for children having spine surgery
This study tests a pain medicine (methadone) for children and teens having spine fusion surgery for scoliosis. It aims to see if it helps control pain safely.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 10–18 - NCT04914507Recruiting
Tracking long-term results of spine tethering in growing teens
This study follows kids who have a surgery called anterior vertebral body tethering (AVBT) for growing-related, idiopathic scoliosis. It looks at how well the curve stays corrected over time and how the spine grows, which may help improve future care decisions.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges Up to 18 years - NCT04505579Recruiting
Study of a spinal tether to treat worsening scoliosis
This trial studies a surgically placed “tether” system to help stop or slow worsening in certain types of scoliosis in growing teens. It’s for people whose curve is moderate-to-severe and who could not tolerate or didn’t respond to bracing.

What taking part in a idiopathic scoliosis study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Pennsylvania to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Pennsylvania, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a idiopathic scoliosis trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
