Testing how long cooling lasts after pediatric cardiac arrest
This study tests whether using body cooling for different lengths of time helps children recover better after an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. It focuses on children who remain very unresponsive after resuscitation and need a breathing tube and steady temperature control.
Hershey, PennsylvaniaAges 2 days–17 years - NCT07192952RecruitingPhase 3
Long-term safety of finerenone for children with heart failure
This trial tests a medicine called finerenone to see if it is safe for children and young adults with heart failure when taken for a long time. It may help improve heart function and manage symptoms.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges Up to 18 years - NCT07188805RecruitingPhase 3
Finerenone for children with heart failure
This study tests a medicine called finerenone in children with heart failure. It looks at whether finerenone helps the heart work better and is safe compared to a placebo (a dummy pill), when taken with the usual heart-failure medicines.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 6 months–17 years - NCT03827694Recruiting
Testing a noninvasive scan for serious lung mold infections in kids
This study uses noninvasive breathing/relates imaging (MRI or CT) to help diagnose mold infections in the lungs in children and young adults. It may help doctors find these infections sooner, especially in people with weakened immune systems.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 4 months–21 years - NCT07680439RecruitingPhase 2
CAR T cell therapy study for children with DIPG brain tumor
This trial tests a new CAR T cell therapy (BCB-276) for children and young adults with a type of brain tumor called DIPG. The therapy uses your own immune cells that are specially trained to attack the cancer.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 1–26 - NCT06690801Recruiting
Nitric oxide breathing gas for children with lung failure
This trial tests whether adding a breathing gas called nitric oxide to standard care helps children with severe lung failure (ARDS) recover faster. It is for children on a breathing machine who still have low oxygen levels.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges birth–21 years - NCT07630974RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New Cancer Drug for Children With Hard-to-Treat Solid Tumors
This trial tests a new drug called ifinatamab deruxtecan in children whose solid tumors (cancers that form lumps, excluding brain tumors) have come back or stopped responding to previous treatments. The drug is designed to target and kill cancer cells while potentially causing fewer side effects than standard chemotherapy.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 1 month–17 years - NCT07627971RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy for GJB2-related hearing loss in young children
This study tests an experimental gene therapy (SKY-GJB2) designed to treat hearing loss caused by mutations in the GJB2 gene. The therapy is given directly to children ages 9 months to 7 years who have significant bilateral hearing loss, and researchers will monitor safety and whether hearing improves.
Allentown, PennsylvaniaAges 9 months–7 years - NCT05476770RecruitingPhase 1
Tagraxofusp for children with CD123-positive leukemia
This study tests tagraxofusp, a medicine that targets a marker called CD123 on cancer cells, in children and young adults whose leukemia or lymphoma has come back or is resistant to treatment. It may help by shrinking the cancer and improving disease control after standard therapies have not worked.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 1–21 - NCT07582211Recruiting
BPAP breathing support for severe asthma attacks in children
This study tests whether a special breathing mask (BPAP) can help children ages 5–17 who come to the emergency room with severe asthma attacks. The mask gently pushes air into the lungs to help them breathe more easily.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 5–17 - NCT07517133RecruitingPhase 3

What taking part in a pediatric all 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.

Common questions
- Are there pediatric all clinical trials in Pennsylvania?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 135 recruiting pediatric all studies with a site in Pennsylvania, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a pediatric all study in Pennsylvania?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Pennsylvania to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Pennsylvania, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a pediatric all trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
