Recruiting studies
- NCT03047369Recruiting
Myelin brain disorder research biobank for samples and data
This study collects brain-related medical information and biological samples to help researchers better understand leukodystrophies and other white-matter brain disorders. It may help future diagnosis and treatments by building a valuable “biobank” of patient data and samples.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT03492060Recruiting
Study of genetic variants in neurogenetic disorders over time
This study looks at how people’s genetic test results relate to health changes over time in conditions caused by gene differences. If you already have genetic confirmation of a disease-causing variant, you may be able to join.
New York, New YorkAges Any age - NCT06019182Recruiting
MEHMO syndrome: Understanding the condition over time
This study follows people with or at risk for MEHMO syndrome over time to better understand the condition and identify biological markers. It may include both affected individuals and their family members to see how the condition runs in families.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1 week–100 years - NCT05432349Recruiting
Rett syndrome genetic registry for MECP2 changes
This trial is a registry that collects health and genetic information from people with Rett syndrome. It may help researchers better understand how MECP2 loss-of-function changes lead to symptoms and how to support patients.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges birth–99 years - NCT04395495Recruiting
RASopathy disorder study biobank for kids and families
This study collects and stores health samples and information from people with RASopathy conditions (like Noonan or Costello syndromes) and from family members who may not have the condition. It helps researchers understand these disorders and supports future studies that could lead to better care.
Cincinnati, OhioAges Any age - NCT01087320Recruiting
Gene discovery through genome sequencing for rare disorders
This study uses advanced gene sequencing to look for the genetic cause of rare diseases that haven't been explained yet. You or a family member might join to help find a diagnosis and contribute to medical research.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 4 weeks–99 years - NCT06857539Recruiting
Assessing thinking and movement in high-risk infants
This study looks at how high-risk infants (especially those born early or with brain concerns) develop their thinking and movement skills over time, comparing them to healthy babies. The goal is to better understand and support their development.
CorkAges birth–4 months - NCT07625579Recruiting
Collaboration for Down Syndrome Progress Research Study
This research study aims to better understand Down syndrome by collecting health information, family history, and sometimes brain imaging or sleep data from children and adults with Down syndrome and their families. The goal is to advance knowledge that could improve health and development for people with Down syndrome.
Orange, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT06986863Recruiting
Digital snapshot to reduce restraint use in ER
This study tests using a special digital picture or video (a 'snapshot') to help Emergency Department staff understand and care for people with intellectual or developmental disabilities. The goal is to reduce the use of restraints and make the visit a better experience for you or your loved one.
New Hyde Park, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05520983Enrolling by invitation
Behavior program study for teens with learning or thinking differences
This study is testing a “behavioral health” treatment plan designed for teens who have intellectual and/or developmental disabilities. It may help identify which treatment approach works best for different youth needs.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 13–20

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for intellectual disability?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 58 recruiting intellectual disability 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 intellectual disability 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 intellectual disability 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.
