Recruiting studies
- NCT07332780Recruiting
Tonsil and adenoid surgery for kids with mild breathing troubles during sleep
This study looks at whether removing tonsils and adenoids can help improve spine curves in children who have mild sleep-disordered breathing. It may help prevent scoliosis from getting worse.
Wenzhou, ZhejiangAges 6–15 - NCT07331298Recruiting
Water movement in spine discs of children
This study uses routine MRI scans to measure water movement in the spine discs of children aged 8–16. It aims to understand normal disc health and how it changes in children with scoliosis (a curve in the spine).
LimogesAges 8–16 - NCT06992622Recruiting
Youth spine and vision health study
This study is following a group of young people with scoliosis to better understand how their spine and vision change over time. It may help you learn more about your condition and contribute to future care.
Wenzhou, ZhejiangAges 6–17 - NCT06935331Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Opioid-free spinal fusion for teens with scoliosis
This trial tests a way to manage pain after scoliosis surgery without using opioid medications. It aims to see if patients can recover comfortably using only non-opioid pain relievers, which may help avoid opioid side effects and addiction risks.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 10–20 - 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.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 10–18 - NCT06498232Enrolling by invitation
Video game exercises after scoliosis surgery
This trial compares active video game-based exercises with standard stability training in teens who had surgery for severe scoliosis. It aims to see if fun, interactive games can improve recovery just as well as traditional stability training.
IstanbulAges 10–18 - NCT06067893Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Low dose sedation medicine for pain after scoliosis surgery
This trial tests a low dose of a sedative medicine, dexmedetomidine, given during and after spine surgery to see if it helps with pain. It is for teens and adults with scoliosis having back fusion surgery.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 10–21 - NCT05830825Recruiting
Follow-up study for The Tether to treat scoliosis
This study tracks how well The Tether™ (a growth-friendly spine treatment) works and how people do after surgery in the UK. It is for teens with progressive scoliosis who couldn’t stick with bracing and where their doctor has already decided The Tether is appropriate.
LondonAges birth–30 years - 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.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges Up to 18 years - NCT07602595Recruiting
Understanding pain after childhood rheumatic disease or surgery
This study helps researchers learn how young adults (ages 14–26) who had rheumatic disease or orthopedic surgery as children experience pain over time. By understanding your story, the study may help doctors better support others facing similar challenges.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 14–26

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.
