CairoAges 20–40 - NCT07212361Recruiting
Restoring infant gut bacteria with mother's microbes
This study tests whether giving healthy newborns a special mix of their own mother's friendly bacteria can help build a healthy gut. It is for mothers who had a healthy pregnancy, plan to breastfeed, and live near Helsinki.
HelsinkiAges Up to 50 years - NCT07216365RecruitingPhase 2
Caffeine dosing study for very premature babies
This study is testing different doses of caffeine to improve oxygen levels in extremely low birth weight babies born before 28 weeks. We want to see which dose works best to help their breathing.
Rochester, New YorkAges birth–6 months - 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 - NCT07715682Recruiting
Gentle touch and calm for premature babies' blood tests
This study tests whether gentle human touch and fewer distractions can help reduce pain and improve comfort for premature babies during a standard heel-prick blood test.
AnkaraAges 7 months–9 months - 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.
New Orleans, LouisianaAges 6 months+ - NCT07672210Recruiting
Pregnancy-related aortic dissection in China
This study is looking at cases of aortic dissection that happen during pregnancy or shortly after childbirth in China. It aims to understand how these events occur and how they can best be managed.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 16–55 - NCT07322133RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing two blood pressure medicines for newborns with lung hypertension
This trial compares two medicines (dopamine and norepinephrine) to see which works better for raising blood pressure in newborns who have both low blood pressure and high blood pressure in the lungs. Both medicines are given through a vein to help stabilize your baby's blood pressure.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges Up to 4 weeks - NCT03217578Recruiting
Newborn screening for spinal muscular atrophy in Taiwan
This trial offers testing for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) to newborns. It aims to identify SMA early so families and doctors can act sooner if results suggest the condition.
Kaohsiung CityAges birth–2 weeks - 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 - NCT03735563RecruitingPhase 4
Less invasive surfactant timing with different pre-medications
This study tests whether giving a pre-medication before a less invasive lung treatment (surfactant) improves breathing in premature babies. It may help some babies avoid more invasive ventilation while still getting the lung medication they need.
OuluAges Any age - 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.
Madison, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT03822741Recruiting
Seizure causes and treatments in newborns and infants
This study looks at what causes certain serious seizures that start early in life, and how to treat them. It may help doctors better match treatments to the seizure cause in newborns and young infants.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges Up to 1 year - NCT03923374Recruiting
Study of buprenorphine for opioid use during pregnancy
This study looks at pregnancy and baby outcomes for people who are pregnant and taking buprenorphine for opioid use disorder. It may help doctors understand what to expect long-term for both parent and child when opioid treatment continues during pregnancy.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03928431Recruiting
Restore gut bacteria in newborns using special microbiome samples
This study looks at whether restoring a newborn’s gut bacteria (microbiome) can improve early health. Babies are treated based on the birth conditions, especially whether delivery was vaginal or by C-section.
Stockholm, Stockholm CountyAges 5 minutes–15 minutes - NCT03931707Recruiting
Genetic study of newborns in China
This study collects genetic information from very young newborns to better understand early-life health. Your child’s information may help researchers learn about genetics and future research.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges Up to 4 weeks - NCT03988764Recruiting
Checking monogenic diabetes wrongly labeled as type 1
This trial looks at people who were diagnosed with diabetes before age 25 as either type 1 or “not sure which type.” It may help confirm whether the cause is genetic (monogenic) rather than type 1, which can change treatment choices.
Montreal, QuebecAges 1 day–25 years - NCT07417111Recruiting
CPAP breathing support for very premature babies
This study looks at whether a careful CPAP breathing support plan helps very premature babies breathe better. It may be an option for babies who are stable on low oxygen settings and have few breathing pauses.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Up to 7 months - NCT04114578Recruiting
Study of babies and children with diaphragm hernia
This is an observational study that follows babies and children with congenital diaphragm hernia (CDH) to learn more about their health and care over time. It may help doctors better understand which factors affect outcomes.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for neonate?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 334 recruiting neonate 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 neonate 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 neonate 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.
