Laryngeal Dystonia clinical trials in Massachusetts
We’re tracking 6 recruiting laryngeal dystonia studies with a site in Massachusetts — including Early Phase 1 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Massachusetts
- NCT03042975Recruiting
Study brain and voice genetics in people with voice movement disorders
This study looks at how genetics and brain patterns are connected to laryngeal dystonia and voice tremor, including people with certain types of voice disorders. You may be asked to do imaging and voice-related assessments to help researchers understand what’s causing these symptoms.

Brain–computer interface study for voice spasms from laryngeal dystonia
This study tests how a brain–computer interface reads brain signals to understand and possibly support people with a specific voice condition called adductor laryngeal dystonia. It also compares results with healthy people to help researchers see how brain activity differs during voice tasks.

Testing brain stimulation for laryngeal dystonia symptoms
This study tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment (referred to as neuromodulation, such as rTMS) can improve symptoms of laryngeal dystonia. It’s meant to see if stimulating certain brain areas can reduce how severely your voice/throat problem affects you.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 21–85 - NCT05150093Recruiting
Deep brain stimulation for voice tremor or dystonia
This trial studies deep brain stimulation (a surgically placed device that sends electrical signals) to reduce voice tremor or laryngeal dystonia. You may be considered if your symptoms are persistent despite medication and you can complete the study tasks and pre-surgery testing.

Brain-scan study of voice dystonia and tremor
This early study uses brain and voice-related testing to better understand what is happening in the brain in people with laryngeal dystonia or voice tremor. The results may help scientists learn more about these conditions and how they differ from healthy voices.

Study brain and voice patterns in laryngeal dystonia
This study looks at how the brain and voice system work in people with laryngeal dystonia or voice tremor, and compares them with healthy volunteers. The goal is to better describe different “types” (phenotypes) so future care can be more targeted.

What taking part in a laryngeal dystonia study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
Common questions
- Are there laryngeal dystonia clinical trials in Massachusetts?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 6 recruiting laryngeal dystonia studies with a site in Massachusetts, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a laryngeal dystonia study in Massachusetts?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Massachusetts to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Massachusetts, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a laryngeal dystonia trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New laryngeal dystonia studies open in Massachusetts regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
