Eptinezumab trial for kids with episodic migraine
This Phase 3 study tests eptinezumab to reduce migraine attacks in children who have episodic migraine (not daily chronic migraine). It may help by lowering the number of headache days and migraine days over time. You must complete a headache diary during screening to be considered.
Stamford, ConnecticutAges 6–17 - NCT05850689RecruitingPhase 3
Lumateperone add-on for major depression that didn’t improve
This study tests whether adding lumateperone to an antidepressant helps adults with major depressive disorder (MDD) who haven’t improved enough after trying at least two different antidepressants. It may help reduce depressive symptoms more than antidepressants alone.
Huntsville, AlabamaAges 18–65 - NCT05876312RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug ADX-038 in healthy people and PNH patients
This early-stage study tests how safe and tolerable ADX-038 is, and how the body processes it, in healthy volunteers and in people with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH). It may help researchers understand whether the drug works safely for PNH patients and identify the right dosing.

- How do I know if I qualify for a placebo - control 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 placebo - control 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.
