Recruiting studies
- NCT05565352Enrolling by invitation
Ketamine safety study for people in inpatient psychiatric care
This trial looks at whether ketamine is safe and well-tolerated for certain mental health conditions when given in a hospital setting. It may help teams better understand side effects and comfort for people who may be offered ketamine.
GdanskAges 18–90 - NCT05467683Recruiting
Breathing CO2 test to predict which anxiety therapies won’t work
This study uses a controlled breathing test (inhaling CO2 or breathing faster) to see if it can predict whether exposure-based therapy will help your anxiety disorder. If you are in the right group, the results may help doctors choose more effective treatment earlier.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–70 - NCT05156112Recruiting
Sleep apnea treatment for veterans with PTSD and substance use
This study tests whether treating sleep apnea with a breathing device during a residential program helps veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and substance use problems. It aims to improve their recovery and quality of life.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT01730781Recruiting
PET scan study to image cannabinoid receptors in the brain
This study uses a special brain scan (PET) to measure cannabinoid receptors—areas in the brain that interact with cannabis-like chemicals. It may help researchers better understand how these receptors relate to conditions such as schizophrenia, PTSD, opioid use disorder, or early psychosis risk.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18–55 - NCT05734547Recruiting
Support for children after trauma through parent-and-child sessions
This trial offers a structured program for children who have ongoing trauma symptoms after a scary or harmful event, with work involving both the child and a parent/caregiver. It aims to reduce post-trauma stress symptoms and help the child feel safe again.
AskerAges 7–12 - NCT07849465RecruitingPhase 2
Oxygen therapy for veterans with brain injury and lasting symptoms
This study tests whether breathing high-pressure oxygen (hyperbaric oxygen therapy) can help veterans who have had a traumatic brain injury (TBI) and are dealing with ongoing issues like memory or concentration problems. It also looks at whether this treatment affects certain markers in the blood that may relate to brain health.
