Recruiting studies
- NCT04671771Recruiting
Testing a new graft for hemodialysis access in kidney failure
This study tests whether an “AV graft” implant works safely and well for people with end-stage kidney disease who need hemodialysis. It may help your dialysis access last and work better, compared with current expectations for AV grafts.

This study compares different ways of giving radiation (SABR or brachytherapy) along with long-term hormone therapy for men whose prostate cancer has spread to a limited number of spots in the body. It aims to see which radiation approach controls the cancer as well as possible while keeping quality of life in mind.
Kelowna, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04408430Recruiting
Valve replacement for severe mitral valve disease in high-risk adults
This trial tests a less-invasive way to treat severe mitral valve problems using a transcatheter valve. It may help people who are too high-risk for standard open-heart mitral surgery by improving symptoms and heart function.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04533295Recruiting
Acupuncture to support pregnancy in women with failed IVF
This trial studies whether adding acupuncture during embryo transfer and hormone treatment can improve pregnancy outcomes for women who have had repeat IVF implantation failures with no known cause. It may help your chance of clinical pregnancy when you transfer good-quality frozen embryos.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 25–40 - NCT04577690RecruitingPhase 4
PECS pain study for children getting a chest device implanted
This trial tests a pain-control method (PECS) during surgery for children who are having a small chest device implanted. It may help reduce discomfort during and after the operation.
Toronto, OntarioAges 3–18 - NCT04495660Recruiting
Brain and hearing testing after cochlear implants in children
This study uses a non-painful brain-light monitor to check how hearing and thinking skills change after a cochlear implant in deaf children. It also compares results with children who have normal hearing.
ToulouseAges 10 months–7 years - NCT04544839Enrolling by invitation
Test two ways to attach dentures or implants
This trial compares two different attachment systems for people who have major problems with their upper and/or lower dentures, or who want implant-supported replacement teeth. It may help your smile and chewing by improving how the replacement teeth stay firmly in place.
PuneAges 18 years+ - NCT04440254Recruiting
Long ECG monitoring for Fabry disease heart rhythm
This study checks how your heart’s electrical rhythm looks over a longer period using an ECG (a heart rhythm recording) in people with Fabry disease. It may help doctors understand heart rhythm changes better so future care can be more tailored and safer.
Paris, ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT04432012RecruitingPhase 4
Compare steroid shots versus other delivery after knee replacement
This study compares different ways of giving steroid medicine after a total knee replacement to see which approach works best and is well-tolerated. You may qualify if you’re getting a first (not repeat) knee implant and can follow the study steps.
LuganoAges 50–85 - NCT04390230Recruiting
Who can use the scrotal pump on their inflatable penile implant?
This trial looks at whether men with an inflatable penile prosthesis can properly use the scrotal pump. It aims to understand which patients are able to operate the device successfully.
NiceAges 18 years+ - NCT04419480Recruiting
Monitoring to help prevent complications after cardiogenic shock
This study tests a special monitoring approach (likely using an implanted device) to help prevent serious complications after you survive cardiogenic shock in the hospital. It may help the care team detect problems earlier so treatments can start sooner.
Falls Church, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04396899RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cell heart patch for advanced heart failure
This early-phase study tests a lab-made heart tissue (“engineered myocardium”) placed surgically to help the heart work better in people with advanced heart failure. It mainly checks safety first, and also looks for signs the patch can improve heart function in selected patients.
Göttingen, Lower SaxonyAges 18–80 - NCT04399876Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Testing an implantable device to study drug response in prostate cancer
This early-phase study uses a tiny implant placed during prostate cancer surgery planning to help researchers measure how tumors respond to treatment while still in the body. The results may help improve future treatment choices for men with intermediate- or high-risk prostate cancer.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 22 years+ - NCT04418830Enrolling by invitation
Study of a spine cage implant for degenerative back problems
This trial studies how well specific lumbar (lower back) implant “cages” help fuse vertebrae in people with degenerative disc disease, spinal slippage, narrowing, curvature, or forward-bending deformity. It may help by testing an approach to improve stability and reduce symptoms after surgery.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04328532Recruiting
MRI check for abnormal placenta attachment risk
This study uses an MRI scan during late pregnancy to look for signs that the placenta may be abnormally attached. The goal is to help doctors plan safer care before birth, especially for people with higher-risk pregnancy features.
Vandœuvre-lès-NancyAges 18 years+ - NCT04199026Recruiting
Tiny implanted device delivers drugs to sarcoma tumors
This trial tests an implantable device placed during planned surgery to deliver cancer medicines directly to sarcoma tumors and study how they affect the tumors. It may be an option if your sarcoma has come back or spread and surgery is part of standard care.
Houston, TexasAges 10 years+ - NCT04145401Enrolling by invitation
Long-term follow-up for a specific knee revision implant
This study tracks how well a particular knee revision implant performs over many years. It may help you by closely monitoring your knee after revision surgery and adding to long-term safety and performance data.
Englewood, ColoradoAges 21 years+ - NCT04147559Enrolling by invitation
Long-term follow-up for a specific hip replacement stem
This study checks how well a particular hip replacement stem (the PROFEMUR Preserve Classic Femoral Stem) and matching parts keep working over many years. You may be invited if you had that exact hip replacement combination and can return for long-term checkups.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 21 years+ - NCT04139616Recruiting
Testing a planned heart rhythm plan after aortic valve replacement
This study tests an algorithm—a step-by-step plan—for how doctors manage abnormal heart rhythms after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). It may help guide safer, more consistent care in the weeks after the procedure.
Québec, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT03882229Recruiting
MED-EL hearing implant registry study
This study collects real-world information from people who have, or will have, a MED-EL cochlear implant. The goal is to build a registry so researchers and the company can better understand outcomes over time.
CairoAges Any age - NCT03952962Recruiting
Brain stimulation trial for depression that hasn’t improved
This trial tests a targeted deep brain stimulation procedure to reduce symptoms in people with long-lasting, treatment-resistant depression. It may help by improving mood symptoms using stimulation guided by detailed brain imaging.
Dallas, TexasAges 21–70 - NCT03815656Enrolling by invitation
Closed-loop deep brain stimulation for Parkinson’s medication side effects
This study tests a “smart,” closed-loop deep brain stimulation (DBS) system that adjusts stimulation based on your brain signals. It’s designed for people with Parkinson’s who get troubling medication side effects, with the hope of improving symptoms more smoothly.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for implant?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,044 recruiting implant 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 implant 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 implant 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.
