Using DDAVP with PET scans to find pituitary tumor source
This study tests whether giving DDAVP before a PET scan can help doctors better locate the pituitary problem in people with Cushing disease. It may help confirm where the ACTH-producing tumor is so surgery can be planned more accurately.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 8–99 - NCT04312126Recruiting
How naps may improve motor learning after stroke or in healthy adults
This study tests whether taking a nap can improve how well people learn a movement task. It may help you understand how sleep affects “motor learning,” both in healthy volunteers and after stroke.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–80 - NCT04095026Enrolling by invitation
Brain recording and stimulation to improve memory
This study tests a brain-recording and brain-stimulation approach to help improve memory. It is offered to adults who are already enrolled in a specific epilepsy surgery program and can safely complete memory-related tasks.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT03678389Recruiting
Check feasibility of a coil for pituitary surgery imaging
This trial tests whether a special coil can be placed during pituitary tumor surgery to improve imaging while the surgeon is operating. It may help surgeons see the pituitary area in real time during a transsphenoidal (through the nose) operation.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–85 - NCT03478852Recruiting
Epilepsy screening and evaluation for people 8 and older
This study checks how people with known or suspected epilepsy are evaluated and followed. It may help by improving screening and understanding care for epilepsy in children and adults.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 8–110 - NCT03288220Recruiting
Brain stimulation trial to improve arm movement
This trial studies whether a specific kind of non-painful brain stimulation (TMS) can improve arm and hand movement. It tests this in healthy volunteers and in people recovering from stroke.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT02784210RecruitingPhase 2
Steroid treatment to reduce inflammation in active MS lesions
This Phase 2 study tests whether corticosteroid medicine can reduce inflammation at the edge of active multiple sclerosis (MS) plaques seen on MRI. It may help calm “hot” areas in the brain where MS activity is happening.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT02629107Recruiting

What taking part in a neurologic disorder study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
