Recruiting studies
- NCT06676904Recruiting
Platelet transfusion study for very preterm babies
This study looks at the best way to decide when to give platelet transfusions to very premature babies. It aims to help prevent bleeding while avoiding unnecessary transfusions.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1 hour–2 days - NCT06256406Recruiting
Comfort, kangaroo care, and music therapy for NICU newborns
This trial tests whether a comfortable environment, kangaroo care (skin-to-skin contact), and music therapy can help newborns in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). It aims to see if these gentle approaches improve their well-being.
Catania, SicilyAges birth–3 years - NCT04217421RecruitingPhase 3
Allopurinol for newborns needing heart surgery with bypass
This trial tests whether the medicine allopurinol can protect the brain and heart in newborns with serious congenital heart disease who need heart surgery soon after birth. It may help reduce injury during and around surgery that uses a heart-lung machine (cardiopulmonary bypass).
GroningenAges Up to 1 month - NCT02551081Recruiting
Genetic testing to guide care for newborn birth defects
This trial uses genetic testing to better understand the cause of a newborn’s birth defect and to help doctors choose more personalized treatment. It may help families get clearer answers and more targeted care.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges Up to 4 weeks - NCT00904878Recruiting
Study of pregnancy outcomes for people with inflammatory bowel disease
This study looks at how pregnancy and newborn outcomes turn out for people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) who are pregnant and taking immune-suppressing medicines or biologic therapies. It may help doctors better understand risks and care for mothers and babies in similar situations.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–45 - NCT04905537Recruiting
Genetic screening for newborns after a serious pregnancy loss
This trial looks at doing early genetic testing in newborns/early life cases after a serious pregnancy loss, to learn whether genetics can help understand why it happened. If you have the right timing and sample availability, the results may help future “more precise” care planning and research.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges Up to 3 months - NCT05564598RecruitingPhase 2
Trial of immune therapy for newborns with congenital CMV
This Phase 2 trial tests an immune treatment made from donor T-cells to help the body fight congenital CMV infection in newborns. It may be an option if your baby is very young, has evidence of CMV infection, and meets specific blood, kidney, and liver safety limits.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges birth–3 weeks - NCT07033663Recruiting
Monoclonal antibody exposure during pregnancy and baby's immune system
This study looks at how monoclonal antibody treatments given during pregnancy affect a baby's immune system development. It compares babies whose mothers received these treatments throughout pregnancy, only in early pregnancy, or not at all.
Esplugues de Llobregat, BarcelonaAges Any age - NCT07424846RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Xylitol gum to prevent gum disease and early birth
This trial tests if chewing xylitol gum during pregnancy can reduce gum disease and preterm birth. You would chew gum after meals and attend dental visits and follow-ups.
LilongweAges Any age - NCT06255782RecruitingPhase 3
Gene therapy study for baby boys with severe OTC deficiency
This trial tests a gene therapy called ECUR-506 for baby boys under 9 months old with a severe form of OTC deficiency. The goal is to see if it can help their bodies process ammonia better, reducing the need for a strict protein-restricted diet and medications.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 1 day–7 months - NCT04216927RecruitingPhase 3
Neonates on heart-lung bypass get NO to prevent kidney injury
This Phase 3 study tests whether not giving nitric oxide during heart-lung bypass in newborns helps reduce the risk of acute kidney injury. It focuses on newborns having heart surgery for congenital heart disease.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 1 day–1 month - NCT07732244Recruiting
Testing a wireless brain oxygen monitor in the NICU
This study is testing a new wireless device that monitors oxygen levels in the brain. It is for babies already using a similar wired monitor, to see if the wireless version works just as well.
Montreal, QuebecAges Any age - NCT06000761Recruiting
Mouth care with human milk for premature babies
This trial is testing whether giving gentle mouth care with human milk to very premature babies in the NICU can help their health. It focuses on babies born early and with low birth weight whose mothers can provide milk.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 1 hour–3 days - NCT06072976Recruiting
How feeding affects gut health in babies with bowel conditions
This study looks at whether breast milk or formula helps babies with certain bowel problems heal faster and reach full feeds sooner. It compares how different milk affects the bacteria in a baby's gut.
Seattle, WashingtonAges birth–55 years - NCT05161078Enrolling by invitation
Studies CARPEDIEM care for newborns and babies in participating hospitals
This trial looks at how to improve outcomes for newborns and infants who receive CARPEDIEM as part of routine hospital care. It aims to see whether an interdisciplinary team approach can make treatment safer and more effective.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT06823115Enrolling by invitation
Worldwide study of kidney injury in newborns
This study looks at how common acute kidney injury is in newborns in the intensive care unit. It helps doctors understand which babies are at risk and how to prevent kidney problems.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges birth–2 weeks - NCT06984445Recruiting
Cord Blood Protein in Anemia Transfusion Study
This study measures a protein (S100B) in cord blood from babies who had or did not need a blood transfusion in the womb for hemolytic disease. It looks for possible markers of brain health.
WarsawAges 18 years+ - NCT03298334RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing vaginal bacteria transfer to newborns after C-section
This study looks at whether they can safely place “healthy vaginal bacteria” from the mother into the newborn after a scheduled C-section, and whether it improves the baby’s health. It only enrolls certain mothers and babies based on infection testing and other health factors.
Falls Church, VirginiaAges birth–50 years - NCT06267508Recruiting
HIV testing and treatment for newborns
This study looks at ways to test and treat newborns for HIV early to improve their long-term health. It is for mothers with HIV whose babies are less than 3 days old and who are willing to have their babies tested and followed at home.
BeiraAges 18 years+ - NCT06693817Recruiting
Wireless sensors for newborns in the delivery room
This trial tests advanced wireless sensors to monitor babies born at 35 weeks or later who are stable at delivery. The goal is to see if these sensors can improve care right after birth.
Londrina, ParanáAges 8 months–10 months - NCT03775954Recruiting
Fetal heart testing in high-risk pregnancies after baby loss
This study checks unborn babies’ heart signals using special scans during pregnancy and then checks the baby’s heart shortly after birth. It may help researchers understand why certain high-risk pregnancies can lead to fetal demise and improve care.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for neonatal disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 45 recruiting neonatal disease 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 neonatal disease 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 neonatal disease 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.
