Recruiting studies
- NCT05642013Recruiting
Short interval exchange surgery for infected hip or knee implants
This study compares how to replace an infected hip or knee implant using a two-step surgery with a shorter waiting time. It aims to reduce the time between surgeries while still safely treating the infection.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT04297592Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Antibiotics to prevent infection after hip or knee replacement
This trial studies whether giving antibiotics before and/or after surgery can lower the chance of a serious joint infection after elective hip or knee replacement. It’s aimed at people at higher risk for infection.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18–99 - NCT07345325RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing antibiotic treatments for heart valve infections
This trial tests whether a treatment without rifampin works as well as one with rifampin for a type of heart valve infection caused by staph bacteria. It aims to find a simpler and safer option for patients with an infected artificial heart valve.
Aix-les-BainsAges 18 years+ - NCT03713528Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Antibiotic placed in bone to help save an infected knee implant
This trial tests whether putting antibiotics directly inside the bone during surgery can improve outcomes for an infected knee prosthesis when the implant is being kept. It may help more people avoid needing full implant removal and replacement.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05989152Recruiting
PET scan to check heart valve infection after antibiotics
This trial uses FDG-PET scans to see if a heart valve infection (endocarditis) is cured after antibiotics. It is for people with a prosthetic valve who had an active infection and a specific PET scan early in treatment.
Paris, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT07653295Recruiting
Study of Tıpmed revision hip replacement safety
This study follows patients who already had a revision hip replacement using the Tıpmed system. Researchers want to confirm the implant is safe and works well over time.
BalıkesirAges 18 years+ - NCT06782295RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing two implant types in knee revision surgery
This study compares two types of knee implants (CCK vs PS) used during revision total knee replacement. The goal is to see which one works better in patients who need a second knee surgery.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT04028401RecruitingPhase 3
Skin prep study to reduce bacteria in shoulder replacement surgery
This study tests whether a specific skin-cleaning method before shoulder replacement surgery can reduce a common bacteria (Cutibacterium acnes) found on skin and deeper samples. It may help lower the risk of infection or contamination during prosthetic shoulder surgery.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for prosthetic infection?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 32 recruiting prosthetic infection studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a prosthetic infection 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 prosthetic infection 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.
