Recruiting studies
- NCT02434003Recruiting
Test a new way to predict scoliosis curve progression
This study follows adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis to see how well a new predictive model estimates whether the spinal curve will get worse over time. It may help doctors plan monitoring and treatment more accurately for young people with scoliosis.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 10–15 - NCT03716843Recruiting
Testing a pressure-sensing brace for teen scoliosis care

Flexible brace treatment for teens with scoliosis
This trial tests whether a flexible brace can help improve or control adolescent idiopathic scoliosis in teenagers whose curve is in a specific range. You may be eligible if you already tried a rigid brace and meet other physical and safety requirements.
Hong KongAges 10–15 - NCT02589106Recruiting
Brace study for teens with early scoliosis
This trial tests a special type of brace made with “anisotropic textile” material for adolescents with a specific kind of side-bending spine problem called adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). It may help by improving curve measurements while you follow a structured brace plan.
Hong Kong, GuangdongAges 10–14 - NCT07166328Recruiting
Body Image and Spine Curvature in Scoliosis
This study looks at how teenagers with scoliosis see their own body shape and posture. It may help doctors understand how scoliosis affects self-image and movement.

Testing a new 3D-printed scoliosis brace for teens and children
This study tests a new 3D-printed scoliosis brace that can be adjusted to have different levels of support in different areas. It may be more comfortable than traditional braces while still correcting spine curves, and it aims to help people who already wear a brace and have a curve between 20 and 40 degrees.
Houston, TexasAges 8–18 - NCT05924347Recruiting
Imaging study to spot early spine changes in at-risk children
This study uses MRI and physical measurements to look for early signs of scoliosis (a side-bending of the spine) in children who are at higher risk. It may help doctors understand when scoliosis starts and improve early monitoring.
UtrechtAges 8–11 - NCT07403084Recruiting
Study of NEMOST V2 implant for children with scoliosis
This study looks at how well the NEMOST V2 implant works to straighten the spine in children with scoliosis that is getting worse despite other treatments. It may help kids whose spine curve is severe and needs surgery.
Nice, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur RegionAges 5–17 - NCT07246122Recruiting
MRI-guided dynamic brace for scoliosis correction
This study tests a new MRI-guided brace system for teens with mild scoliosis (curves between 10 and 25 degrees). It aims to see if this dynamic brace is more comfortable and effective than traditional braces.
Tsim Sha Tsui, KowloonAges 10–16 - NCT06789029RecruitingPhase 4
Dexamethasone and numbing medicine for children's spine surgery
This study tests whether giving a common anti-inflammatory medicine (dexamethasone) in a different way or using a different strength of numbing medicine can reduce pain and swelling during and after spine surgery in children. It's for kids aged 11–17 who are having surgery for a curved spine that started without a known cause.
PoznanAges 10–18 - NCT03582917RecruitingPhase 2
Vitamin D during rehabilitation for teen scoliosis
This study looks at whether vitamin D affects recovery during rehab for teens with idiopathic scoliosis (a sideways spine curve without a known cause). It may help the rehab process by improving vitamin D–related factors in growing teens.
AsvestochóriAges 10–18 - NCT07574229Recruiting
Support System for Teens Wearing Scoliosis Braces
This study tests a new computer-based support system designed to help teenagers stay motivated and consistent with wearing their prescribed scoliosis braces. The system uses interactive tools and feedback to make brace-wearing easier and more manageable.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 10–18 - NCT07321600Recruiting
Breathing muscle training with Schroth exercises for scoliosis in teens
This trial tests whether adding a special breathing exercise (inspiratory muscle training) to standard Schroth exercises improves breathing and posture in teenage girls with scoliosis. It may help strengthen the muscles used for breathing.
Kırşehir, MerkezAges 10–18 - NCT07854951Recruiting
Hypnosis for pain and nausea relief in scoliosis surgery
This trial tests if hypnosis can reduce pain and nausea after scoliosis surgery. Adolescents aged 12-18 who are having scoliosis surgery may be eligible to participate.
TrondheimAges 12–18 - NCT05774002Recruiting
Psychological check-in for teens getting back surgery for scoliosis
This study asks teens with idiopathic scoliosis to complete psychological assessments while planning for elective back surgery. It may help doctors better understand patients’ mental and emotional needs around surgery.
The Bronx, New YorkAges 10–19 - NCT06717568Recruiting
Using 3D camera to check scoliosis in teens
This trial tests a 3D depth camera to measure spinal curves in teens with scoliosis. It may help avoid repeated X-rays while tracking your curve.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 10–18 - NCT06643104Recruiting
Testing a 3D scan method for scoliosis in teens
This study tests a new 3D imaging method to assess scoliosis by comparing back height difference and trunk rotation angle. It aims to find a simpler way to measure spinal curves in teenagers with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
HangzhouAges 10–18 - 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.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT07779070Recruiting
Supervised or home exercises for scoliosis in teens
This study compares two ways of doing scoliosis-specific exercises (Schroth exercises) to see if doing them at home works as well as doing them with a therapist. Teens with mild to moderate scoliosis may improve their posture and spine curve.
Siliviri, IstanbulAges 10–18 - NCT07632833Recruiting
Comfort tote for teens recovering from spine surgery
This study tests whether giving teens a special comfort tote with calming items helps them feel better and recover more smoothly after surgery for scoliosis. It is for patients aged 10 to 21 who are having spinal fusion at a specific hospital.
New York, New YorkAges 12–21 - NCT07516574Enrolling by invitation
Exercise program before scoliosis surgery in teens
This trial tests whether doing special exercises before spine surgery helps teens with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (a sideways curve of the spine). The goal is to see if pre-surgery exercise improves how patients recover and feel after surgery.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 10–18 - NCT06758115Recruiting
Brain and Muscle Study for Teens with Scoliosis
This study looks at how the brain and muscles work together in teens with spinal curves (scoliosis). It uses skin sensors and brain wave tests to understand muscle control, which may help improve treatments.

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.
