Recruiting studies near Washington, D.C.
- 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 - NCT07511049RecruitingPhase 2
Brincidofovir for PML brain infection
This pilot study tests an IV medicine called brincidofovir for people with PML, a serious brain infection. The goal is to see if it can stop the virus from causing more damage.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT06707207Recruiting
Predicting errors during skilled tasks
This study uses brain scans (MRI and MEG) to see if we can predict when someone will make a mistake while performing a skill. It aims to understand brain activity related to errors in healthy young adults.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–35 - NCT05849467RecruitingPhase 1
Testing how the brain absorbs anti–CD8 therapy in nervous system disease
This Phase 1 study tests a small drug (called an anti–CD8+ T cell minibody) to see how much reaches the brain. It may help researchers understand how to deliver similar treatments for multiple sclerosis, progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), or other brain inflammation when the brain’s protective barrier is “open.”
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT05413291Recruiting
Study of movement disorders over time
This study follows people (or family members of people) who have or might have a movement disorder to better understand how symptoms change over time. You may be asked to attend study visits and complete study procedures for the duration of the study.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–100 - NCT06265103Recruiting

This is a registry study that collects information from people being treated for epilepsy at participating healthcare centers. The goal is to improve care by learning from real-world patient data.
Bowie, MarylandAges Any age - NCT05432349Recruiting
Rett syndrome genetic registry for MECP2 changes
This trial is a registry that collects health and genetic information from people with Rett syndrome. It may help researchers better understand how MECP2 loss-of-function changes lead to symptoms and how to support patients.
Baltimore, MarylandAges birth–99 years - NCT05539196Recruiting
Registry for Exablate treatment in Parkinson’s with medication problems
This trial is a real-world registry that follows people with Parkinson’s who are planning to get an Exablate 4000 procedure (a focused ultrasound treatment) for one-sided symptoms that are difficult to control with medication. It mainly checks outcomes and safety over time, helping doctors understand how well this treatment works in everyday care.

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.
