Recruiting studies
- NCT03825835Recruiting
Different oxygen levels at birth for very preterm babies
This trial studies whether giving 30% versus 60% oxygen during early resuscitation (breathing support) affects brain and nerve development in very low birthweight, very preterm infants. If you/your baby fits the birth and care timing requirements, the goal is to find an oxygen approach that supports better long-term outcomes.
Calgary, AlbertaAges birth–10 minutes - NCT05996211Recruiting
Swiss Study on Brain Development in Children with Heart Defects
This study follows children with severe heart problems born recently to see how their brain development progresses. It helps doctors understand what support these children might need as they grow.
BernAges 1 week–1 month - NCT05751525Recruiting
Oral sulfonylurea study for children with KCNJ11-related delay and epilepsy
This study looks at whether switching to an oral sulfonylurea medicine can improve thinking, development, and seizure-related outcomes in children with a specific KCNJ11 gene change. You may be able to join if your child already has this mutation and has been able to take the medicine by mouth.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 2–50 - NCT04398901Enrolling by invitation
Study of brain and development outcomes after Zika exposure
This study follows children to compare development in kids exposed to Zika before birth versus similar children not exposed. The goal is to understand what effects Zika exposure may have on early brain development and long-term outcomes.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 3–7 - NCT06026969Recruiting
Study on Lyme disease and baby development after pregnancy exposure
This study looks at how Lyme disease during pregnancy might affect a baby's development. It involves questionnaires and possibly an MRI of the baby's brain, done at a visit or remotely.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05754567Recruiting
Study brain and development outcomes in CONCEPTT kids
This study looks at children’s neurodevelopment (how the brain, learning, and development are going) whose mothers took part in the earlier CONCEPTT trial. It may help researchers understand how having type 1 diabetes in pregnancy can relate to a child’s development.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 6 years+ - NCT05767476Recruiting
Testing cooling treatment after lack of oxygen at birth
This trial studies outcomes in newborns who had breathing problems from low oxygen before or during birth and were treated with a cooling therapy (therapeutic hypothermia). It may help doctors understand which babies benefit most and what recovery looks like over time.
RomeAges 10 minutes–6 hours - NCT05809115Recruiting
Caregiver-Child Story Visits for Hospitalized Infants
This trial looks at whether a program that strengthens the caregiver-child “story” (how caregivers and young children connect and communicate) can improve early development outcomes. It is offered to caregivers of young hospitalized children at Texas Children’s Hospital.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05849077Recruiting
Testing oxygen saturation targets during newborn resuscitation
This study looks at the best oxygen saturation targets and resuscitation approach for very premature babies right after birth. It may help clinicians guide breathing support more safely in the first minutes of life.
Dallas, TexasAges birth–10 minutes - NCT06423664Recruiting
Study on child development after cannabis use in pregnancy
This study looks at how cannabis (marijuana) use during pregnancy might affect a child's development. If you used cannabis while pregnant and gave birth to a healthy baby at full term, you and your child may be able to join.
Albuquerque, New MexicoAges Up to 1 week - NCT06545760Recruiting
Kangaroo mother care study and postpartum depression
This study looks at whether keeping mothers and their preterm babies together through kangaroo mother care (skin-to-skin contact) can help reduce postpartum depression. It is for mothers and fathers of newborns who are in the NICU and meet certain weight and age requirements.
LusakaAges 1 day–89 years - NCT07203469Recruiting
Nature and activity groups for neurodivergent children
This trial explores whether group activities in nature can help neurodivergent children and youth feel better. It is part of a PhD project, with different phases for different groups.
Kristiansand, AgderAges 5–18 - NCT07212010Enrolling by invitation
Brain-related vision problems in children
This study looks at how brain injuries or abnormalities affect vision in children. It aims to better understand and diagnose cerebral visual impairment (CVI), a vision problem caused by brain issues rather than eye problems.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 6 months–6 years - NCT06926166Recruiting
Genes and germs in early life study
This study looks at how genes and tiny organisms in your body (microbiota) affect early childhood development. It involves storing blood and stool samples from you and your child to help researchers learn more.
GuangzhouAges Any age - NCT04021485Recruiting
Smaller steroid dose test for early-born children’s brain outcomes
This study checks whether giving a lower dose of a steroid medicine (betamethasone) to mothers before birth produces similar brain and thinking outcomes in children born very early (before 32 weeks). It may help reduce medicine exposure while keeping developmental results the same.
Paris, PaAges 5–6 - NCT07296003Recruiting
Motor development study in preterm and full-term babies
This study looks at how babies born early or on time develop their motor skills. Researchers will watch videos of your baby's early movements and then ask you to fill out a questionnaire about their development when they are 18 to 36 months old.
Pardubice, CzechiaAges Up to 3 years - NCT07059286Enrolling by invitation
Pregnancy, Baby Brain Scans, and Child Development Study
This study looks at how a mother's health and experiences during pregnancy may affect her baby's brain growth and early development. You and your baby would have special MRI brain scans, fill out some questionnaires, and then your child's development would be followed until they are 6 years old.
Milan, MIAges 18 years+ - NCT07275021Recruiting
Brain Injury & Vision Screening in Newborns
This study looks for early signs of vision problems in babies who had brain injuries around the time of birth. It aims to help doctors better identify and predict these issues.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 7 months–10 months

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for neurodevelopmental outcome?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 18 recruiting neurodevelopmental outcome 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 neurodevelopmental outcome 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 neurodevelopmental outcome 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.
