Recruiting studies in Pennsylvania
- NCT07455136Recruiting
Blood test for traumatic brain injury diagnosis and monitoring
This study is testing a new blood-based test to help doctors diagnose traumatic brain injury (TBI) and track recovery or complications. If you have had a head injury and a CT scan as part of your care, you may be able to join.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05049057RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a nerve-blocking shot for recent mild TBI
This Phase 2 study tests a medication that blocks a pain signal (a CGRP receptor antibody) in people who recently had a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and are also dealing with post-traumatic headache (PTH). The goal is to see if it can reduce symptoms and improve recovery after the injury.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18–50 - NCT05741411Recruiting
Text-and-phone support after concussion for teens
This study tests whether a phone-based (mHealth) handoff and follow-up can help teens after a concussion, especially those at higher risk of long-lasting symptoms. It uses smartphone check-ins and coordination between emergency and specialty care.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 13–18 - NCT06370520Recruiting
Teen emotions screening after mild brain injury
This study screens teens aged 11 to 17 for emotional and mental health problems after a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI, also called concussion or minor head injury). The goal is to find out if the hospital screening helps identify teens who may need extra support.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 11–17 - NCT07282691Recruiting
Validating eye tests for mild brain injury
This study looks at eye tests for people who had a mild brain injury (mTBI) in the last 1 to 6 months. It aims to better understand and measure eye movement problems that can happen after such an injury.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18–35 - NCT06819904Recruiting
Combined talk therapy and balance rehab for mild TBI
This trial tests a new type of therapy that combines acceptance and commitment therapy (a counseling approach) with vestibular rehabilitation (exercises for balance and dizziness). It's designed for people with mild traumatic brain injury who still have symptoms like dizziness, anxiety, or memory problems.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18–49 - NCT06028334Recruiting
GetUp&Go: Helping you get active after a brain injury
This study tests a program to help people with traumatic brain injury become more physically active. You would use a smartphone app and get coaching to increase your daily movement, which may improve your recovery and quality of life.
Elkins Park, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06828107Recruiting
Testing a device to detect traumatic brain injury
This study tests a new device called SENSE to see if it can detect traumatic brain injury (TBI) quickly. You may qualify if you have a TBI with bleeding seen on a CT scan, or if you are a healthy volunteer without brain problems.

What taking part in a mild traumatic brain injury 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.
