Testing brain-signal biomarkers in treatment-resistant depression
This trial studies signs in the brain (biomarkers) during an accelerated form of nerve stimulation to treat depression that hasn’t improved with usual antidepressants. It may help researchers learn who benefits and how to better personalize treatment.

Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05840497Recruiting
Exercise program to help lower gestational diabetes risk
This trial tests whether a strength and resistance exercise program during pregnancy can help reduce gestational diabetes in people who are overweight or obese. It may help by improving how your body handles sugar during pregnancy.
Pamplona, NavarreAges 18 years+ - NCT05947656Recruiting
NaviFUS treatment for drug-resistant temporal lobe seizures
This trial tests the NaviFUS system to treat seizures that keep happening despite seizure medicines, specifically in people with temporal lobe epilepsy. If you qualify, you would be carefully checked before and during the study, including seizure tracking and brain scans, to see whether treatment helps reduce seizures.
Melbourne, VictoriaAges 18 years+ - NCT05952674Recruiting
Vagus nerve stimulation for long-term depression symptoms
This trial studies whether a device that stimulates the vagus nerve (VNS) can help people with treatment-resistant depression or related mood disorders that have not improved despite multiple therapies. It may help by targeting mood symptoms when other treatments haven’t worked well.
Angers, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT06034327Recruiting
Testing a new spectacle lens for slowing myopia in kids 6–8
This study tests a special spectacle lens designed to slow the progression of nearsightedness (myopia) in children aged 6 to 8. It may be a good option for kids who are mildly to moderately nearsighted and haven't used other myopia control treatments.
Oakland, CaliforniaAges 6–8 - NCT06051513Recruiting
Testing colistimethate for CRE infection in hospitalized patients
This trial tests a medicine called colistimethate sodium for people in the hospital with a serious infection (pneumonia or bloodstream infection) caused by a resistant bacteria called CRE. The goal is to see if this antibiotic can effectively treat the infection.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–85 - NCT06075485Recruiting
Ketogenic diet for drug-resistant epilepsy in children
This study looks at how well the ketogenic diet (a high-fat, low-carb diet) works for children with epilepsy that doesn't improve with standard medicines. It uses a special product called KetoCal to help maintain the diet and tracks results in real life.
LilleAges 5 months–18 years - NCT06081387Recruiting
Exercise and vitamin D for type 2 diabetes
This study tests whether adding aerobic and resistance exercise to your routine helps manage type 2 diabetes better when you already take metformin, an SGLT2 inhibitor, and possibly vitamin D. You would be assigned either to an exercise program or to continue your usual care.
BarcelonaAges 40 years+ - NCT06085950Recruiting
Ultrasound brain stimulation for hard-to-treat depression
This trial tests whether a gentle ultrasound treatment aimed at the brain can help people with severe depression that hasn't improved with at least two prior medications. It's a first small study to see if the approach is safe and promising.
ParisAges 18–75 - NCT06099093RecruitingPhase 4
PSMA PET scan before standard therapy for advanced prostate cancer
This trial will test if a special PET scan (18F-DCFPyL) can help doctors plan your treatment with a radioactive medicine called 177Lu-vipivotide tetraxetan. You are eligible if you already qualify for that standard therapy and have had a prior PSMA PET scan showing at least one active cancer site.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06132178RecruitingPhase 2
Psilocybin and rTMS for hard-to-treat depression
This study tests whether a combination of psilocybin (a psychedelic substance) and transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS, a noninvasive brain stimulation) can help people with treatment-resistant depression. It involves daily visits to the research center for about 2 weeks.
Austin, TexasAges 22–65 - NCT06141993Recruiting
Study of blood markers in hormone therapy resistance for prostate cancer
This study is for men with advanced prostate cancer that stopped responding to one hormone therapy and will be starting another. Researchers will collect blood samples to look for markers that might explain why the resistance happens.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06145633RecruitingPhase 2
Vorinostat and 177Lu-PSMA-617 for PSMA-Low prostate cancer
This trial tests two drugs: vorinostat (a pill that may make cancer cells easier to target) and 177Lu-PSMA-617 (a radioactive drug that seeks out prostate cancer cells). It is for men with a specific type of advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy and shows low levels of PSMA on a PET scan.
Seattle, WashingtonAges Any age - NCT06152497Recruiting
Histamine and muscle growth after strength training
This study looks at how histamine affects muscle building after resistance exercise. It may help us understand why some people build muscle better than others after strength training.

Elastic band exercise for muscle loss in heart failure patients
This trial tests whether a simple at-home exercise program using elastic bands can help older adults with heart failure who also have muscle weakness or low muscle mass (sarcopenia). The goal is to improve strength and daily function.

This study looks at how the brain's frontal lobe (DLPFC) works during memory tasks in people with treatment-resistant depression. It compares brain activity between depressed patients and healthy controls using MRI and possibly a brain stimulation technique (rTMS). It aims to understand why some people don't respond to standard treatments.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for resistance?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,213 recruiting resistance 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 resistance 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 resistance 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.
