Recruiting studies
- NCT05744024Enrolling by invitation
VR-based comfort care during complex wound procedures
This trial studies a non-medicine way to reduce pain during complex wound care, possibly using VR or similar distraction tools. You may be able to join if you have painful wound procedures and can safely use the VR setup.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT05688683Recruiting
Brain recording during awake surgery to study motor learning
This study uses special brain recordings during an awake surgical procedure to understand how the brain learns new movement and sensation skills. If you can comfortably take part in a simple task during surgery, you may help researchers learn how learning works in humans.

Movement-to-music exercise program for people with mobility limits
This study tests whether a movement-to-music exercise program at home can improve cardiometabolic health (health related to heart and blood sugar) for adults who use a wheelchair and are not already exercising regularly. You may benefit if you can exercise using your arms and can do moderate activity safely.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–89 - NCT05503290Recruiting
Music sessions for pregnant people with epilepsy
This trial tests whether a guided music program (called “The Lullaby Project”) can be helpful during pregnancy for people with epilepsy. It focuses on participating in online musical sessions while you’re pregnant.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05429970Recruiting
Reducing stress before ovarian cancer surgery with two medicines
This study tests whether giving two commonly used medicines before surgery—one that can lower stress on the body (a beta-blocker) and one that reduces inflammation (a COX-2 inhibitor)—can improve outcomes compared with standard care. It’s for people with advanced ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer who are having open surgery.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05223192Recruiting
Testing music to improve breathing and brain oxygen in preemies
This study looks at whether planned music sessions can help preterm babies breathe more steadily and improve oxygen reaching the brain. It may help staff learn how to use music therapy safely for newborns in the NICU.
New York, New YorkAges 6 months–9 months - NCT04626050Recruiting
PTSD and stress support study for healthcare workers
This study looks at psychological distress, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), in healthcare workers after work-related trauma. You may be eligible if you are an adult healthcare worker with PTSD (and otherwise stable) who can complete regular study check-ins.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT03533985Recruiting
Music therapy for newborns in the NICU with withdrawal symptoms
This study looks at whether music therapy can help infants who are born with neonatal abstinence syndrome (withdrawal symptoms after birth). It may support comfort, bonding, or overall newborn well-being while they’re in the NICU.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for music?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 200 recruiting music 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 music 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 music 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.
