Villeneuve-d'AscqAges 13–17 - NCT07177430Recruiting
Breathing muscle training for teens with scoliosis
This trial tests if special breathing exercises can help teens with scoliosis who are also doing Schroth therapy. It aims to strengthen the muscles that help you breathe.
Wroclaw, Lower Silesian VoivodeshipAges 11–16 - NCT05281757Recruiting
Follow-up safety check for Ennovate complex in adults
This study collects safety and imaging (radiology) follow-up information from people who used the Ennovate® Complex for a specific medical reason. It helps confirm the device works well and is safe in real-world use.
BrnoAges Any age - NCT07500883Recruiting
Adding body awareness therapy to scoliosis exercises for teens
This trial tests whether adding Basic Body Awareness Therapy (a gentle movement practice that helps you notice how your body feels and moves) to standard scoliosis exercises can improve posture and reduce discomfort in teenagers with scoliosis.
Ankara, AnkaraAges 10–17 - NCT07634627Recruiting
Understanding why teens get scoliosis – a protein study
This study looks at how proteins in the blood may help us understand why teenagers develop scoliosis (a sideways curve in the spine). If you have mild to moderate scoliosis and are getting care at Children's Hospital Colorado, you may be able to join this study to help researchers learn more about the condition.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 10–17 - NCT06042699Recruiting
Iron deficiency and scoliosis study for teens and young adults
This study tests whether giving iron supplements before spinal fusion surgery can help kids with low iron levels. It aims to understand iron deficiency in young people with scoliosis and improve their surgical outcomes.
New York, New YorkAges 10–26 - NCT06934278RecruitingPhase 3
Plasma vs salt water for scoliosis surgery in kids
This study compares two types of fluids—one made from donated human blood plasma and one a standard salt-solution—given during scoliosis surgery in children and teenagers. The goal is to see which fluid helps patients recover safely and with fewer complications.
HelsinkiAges 10–21 - NCT05819034Recruiting
Non-surgical care for mild adolescent scoliosis
This trial looks at a non-surgical (conservative) approach to managing mild scoliosis in teens. It may help by improving comfort, posture control, and how the curve changes over time without surgery.
Mecca, Mecca RegionAges 10–17 - NCT06314594Recruiting
Personalized care for teens with scoliosis
This study tests a personalized health management plan for teens with mild to moderate scoliosis (spine curve less than 45 degrees). It aims to help prevent the curve from getting worse and improve treatment through a special online platform.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 3–18 - NCT06298812Recruiting
A study of the REFLECT Scoliosis System for teens with scoliosis
This study tests a device called the REFLECT Scoliosis System, meant to treat growing teens with progressive idiopathic scoliosis that hasn't improved with bracing. It may help correct the curve and allow you to follow a normal recovery plan after surgery.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges Any age - NCT06502613Recruiting
Scoliosis and Sleep Cycle in Children
This study looks at how sleep timing (melatonin levels) might be linked to new cases of scoliosis in children. If you have scoliosis and are between 6 and 15, you may help researchers understand this connection.
Wenzhou, ZhejiangAges 6–15 - NCT06680297Recruiting
Drinking carbs before scoliosis surgery
This trial tests if giving teenagers a carbohydrate drink before scoliosis surgery helps them recover faster and more safely. It looks at how the drink affects things like nausea, pain, and how quickly they can get back to normal.
Kuala Lumpur, Kuala LumpurAges 10–19 - NCT06820190Recruiting
Numbing injection for pain after scoliosis fusion surgery
This trial is testing a new type of numbing injection near the spine to see how well it controls pain after scoliosis surgery. If you are having a posterior spinal fusion for idiopathic scoliosis, you may be able to join and receive the injection plus patient-controlled pain medicine.
Tanta, El-GharbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07092917Recruiting
Spinal fusion surgery for teen scoliosis
This trial studies the outcomes and complications of posterior spinal fusion surgery in teens with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. It aims to help those with moderate to severe curves that are getting worse quickly or causing functional problems.
Asyut, EgyptAges 8–21 - NCT07217873RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
IV iron for teens with scoliosis and low iron
This trial tests whether giving intravenous (IV) iron before spine surgery helps teens with scoliosis who have low iron stores. The goal is to see if it can reduce the need for blood transfusions during surgery.

Surgery study for teens with scoliosis needing spinal fusion
This trial looks at a specific surgical technique for teens whose scoliosis is severe enough that doctors have recommended surgery. It may help doctors compare approaches and improve outcomes after spinal fusion.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for idiopathic scoliosis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 82 recruiting idiopathic scoliosis 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 idiopathic scoliosis 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 idiopathic scoliosis 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.
