Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05261477Recruiting
Kid Brain Injury Education and Care Navigation Program
This trial tests a family support program that teaches caregivers and helps coordinate outpatient care after a traumatic brain injury. It may help families better understand recovery and connect with rehabilitation services.
Colorado Springs, ColoradoAges 3 years+ - NCT05294042Recruiting
Patient navigators for children’s mental health care
This study tests a support program that helps children and caregivers find and get community mental health services, especially in high-poverty areas. It may help by making it easier to connect with the right services and stay engaged while waiting or starting care.
Chicago, IllinoisAges Up to 14 years - NCT05221554Recruiting
Pre-surgery hip replacement modeling study
This trial tests a new way to plan hip replacement surgery using a CT scan. It may help doctors place the new hip more accurately, which could lead to better outcomes.
London, OntarioAges 40 years+ - NCT05053997Recruiting
Support program for vulnerable people with lung cancer

Knee replacement with digital help study
This study looks at knee replacement surgery done with digital tools like robots or computer guidance. It may help people with knee arthritis find better ways to have surgery and recover.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT07856017Recruiting
Smarter prostate biopsy using imaging and metabolic data
This study tests a new biopsy system that uses MRI images and metabolic information to guide doctors to the most suspicious areas of the prostate during the biopsy. This could make the biopsy more accurate and help diagnose prostate cancer better.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for navigation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 238 recruiting navigation 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 navigation 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 navigation 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.
