Methotrexate-loaded vesicles injected into spine fluid for lung cancer spread to brain membranes
This study tests a new way to deliver a cancer drug directly into the fluid around your brain and spinal cord to treat lung cancer that has spread to the membranes covering the brain. It may help patients whose cancer hasn't responded to standard treatments.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT07511725RecruitingPhase 2
Thiotepa spinal injection to prevent glioblastoma spread
This trial tests whether injecting a chemotherapy drug called thiotepa into the fluid around the brain and spine can prevent glioblastoma from spreading in patients whose tumor touches the fluid-filled spaces or who had a leak during surgery.

Nanning, GuangxiAges 1 year–1.9 years - NCT07409220Recruiting
Using video to help parents prepare for child's lumbar puncture
This study tests if showing parents a short video before their child's lumbar puncture helps them feel calmer and more informed. The goal is to make the experience less stressful for both parents and children.
Muscat, Muḩāfaz̧at MasqaţAges 12 hours–13 years - NCT07410624Recruiting
Kidney function in brain injury patients
This trial measures how quickly the kidneys clear drugs in patients with serious brain conditions like stroke or meningitis. It may help doctors adjust medicine doses for better treatment.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18–85 - NCT07358910Recruiting
Tracking infectious diseases in communities
This study looks at how infections spread in villages in Cambodia. If you live in a participating village, you might help us understand and prevent disease outbreaks.
Phnom Penh, Phnom PenhAges 2–75 - NCT07361549RecruitingPhase 2
Lidocaine injection for chronic migraine pain
This study tests if injecting lidocaine (a numbing medicine) into an artery in the head can reduce chronic migraine pain. It may help people who have frequent migraines and are already getting a brain imaging test.
Camden, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07332234Recruiting
Optic nerve ultrasound for brain inflammation and pressure
This study uses a quick ultrasound of the optic nerve to help doctors detect swelling or pressure in the brain. It may help people with suspected meningitis, encephalitis, stroke, or brain tumors decide on the best treatment earlier.
Bucharest, BucharestAges 18–60 - NCT07324551Recruiting
Microcatheter for subdural hematoma treatment
This trial studies a new, tiny device (microcatheter) used to block blood flow to the lining of the brain in people with a subdural hematoma (a type of blood clot on the brain). The goal is to see if this device helps stop the bleeding and reduces the need for surgery.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07294118RecruitingPhase 2
Lidocaine and steroids for pain after brain bleed
This trial tests whether giving a numbing medicine (lidocaine) and steroids into the artery that covers the brain can help reduce pain after a brain bleed. It may be an option for people with a specific type of bleeding who have not had certain brain surgeries or procedures.
Galveston, TexasAges 18–100 - NCT07264569RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new drug for lung cancer that has spread to the brain or spinal fluid
This trial tests a new drug called BioTTT001 for people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread to the fluid around the brain or the lining of the brain (leptomeninges). The goal is to see if the drug is safe and can help control the cancer.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18–70 - NCT05327933Recruiting
Preventing chronic bleeding from the brain’s covering after surgery
This trial looks at whether a procedure called middle meningeal artery embolization can help stop chronic subdural hematoma (slow bleeding/collection under the brain covering) from coming back after your first surgery. It studies an added endovascular treatment right after your operation to reduce recurrence.
Berlin, State of BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT07258069Recruiting
Glue injection for chronic subdural hematoma
This trial tests whether injecting a medical glue into a specific artery in the brain can safely treat a chronic subdural hematoma (a collection of blood on the brain's surface) or a recurrent subdural hematoma. This approach may offer a less invasive alternative to traditional surgery.
Fukuoka, Kitakyushu-cityAges 18 years+ - NCT06292585Recruiting
Blocking the artery to treat epidural hematoma
This trial tests a new way to treat a blood clot outside the brain (epidural hematoma) after a head injury. Instead of surgery, doctors use a thin tube to block the artery feeding the clot, which may help the body absorb the clot more safely.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07203755RecruitingPhase 1
Combination vaccine for whooping cough, Hib, and meningitis
This trial tests a new combination vaccine that protects against whooping cough, Haemophilus influenzae type b (a cause of meningitis and pneumonia), and several types of meningococcal disease (a cause of meningitis and bloodstream infections). It may help reduce the number of shots needed for children.

Lung cancer with brain lining spread: real-world treatment study
This study looks at how people with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the lining of the brain or spinal cord are treated in real-world clinics in China. If you have received treatment for this spread since 2018, you may be able to help doctors learn what works best.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for meningitis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 62 recruiting meningitis 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 meningitis 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 meningitis 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.
