Recruiting studies
- NCT06531499RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a radioactive drug for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests an extended treatment with a radioactive drug (177Lu-PSMA-617) to see how the body handles it, how safe it is, and how well it works. It is for men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have not had chemotherapy yet.

Real-world study of Pluvicto for advanced prostate cancer
This study looks at how men with advanced prostate cancer (mCRPC) do when they receive a treatment called Pluvicto (lutetium vipivotide tetraxetan) in real-world settings. It aims to collect information on treatment effectiveness and quality of life without adding any extra procedures or medications.
Konstanz, Baden-WurttembergAges 18–99 - NCT06511908RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new ketamine-like drug for hard-to-treat depression
This study tests a new experimental drug (2R,6R)-HNK, a chemical related to ketamine, given by IV infusion to see if it can help people with depression that hasn't improved with other treatments. The goal is to find a new option for people who have not found relief from standard antidepressants.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–70 - NCT06512220RecruitingPhase 2
Psilocybin for treatment-resistant depression brain imaging study
This study tests whether a psilocybin-based treatment can help people with depression that has not improved after trying several antidepressants. You will receive the study treatment and have brain scans to see how it affects brain connections.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–65 - NCT06511544Recruiting
Brain stimulation for treatment-resistant depression with rumination
This study tests whether a specific form of brain stimulation (called rTMS) can help people with treatment-resistant depression by targeting brain circuits linked to rumination (repetitive negative thinking). If you have tried at least one antidepressant without success and do not have other major mental health conditions, this trial may be worth exploring with your doctor.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18–70 - NCT06492720Recruiting
Testing focused ultrasound for drug-resistant epilepsy

TaipeiAges 18–65 - NCT06480201RecruitingPhase 1
Ketamine for treatment-resistant depression: a brain wave study
This study tests whether a single dose of ketamine can change brain wave patterns (called gamma oscillations) in people with treatment-resistant depression. Researchers want to see if these brain waves can predict who will feel better after treatment.
Houston, TexasAges 21–45 - NCT06470243RecruitingPhase 3
Adding carboplatin to cabazitaxel for advanced prostate cancer
This study tests whether adding a chemotherapy drug called carboplatin to another chemotherapy called cabazitaxel works better than cabazitaxel alone for men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread and no longer responds to hormone therapy. All participants must have already had docetaxel chemotherapy.
Fayetteville, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06441006RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3

This trial tests a personalized treatment approach for people with rifampicin-resistant TB that is still sensitive to fluoroquinolones. It aims to find the best combination of medicines based on your specific TB profile.
UlaanbaatarAges 14 years+ - NCT06439225RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo for prostate cancer with DNA repair changes
This trial tests a combination of two chemotherapy drugs (carboplatin and docetaxel) for men whose prostate cancer has spread and has specific changes in DNA repair genes. It aims to see if this treatment can help when other hormone therapies have stopped working.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT06426173Recruiting
Strength training for people waiting for a heart transplant
This study tests whether resistance training (strength exercises) can help people waiting for a heart transplant. It is for patients who have been on the transplant list for less than a month and are stable enough to exercise safely.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18–70 - NCT06425380Recruiting
Resistant potato starch for liver cirrhosis and confusion
This study is testing whether a special type of starch (resistant potato starch) can help people with cirrhosis who have had episodes of confusion from liver problems. It may help by changing the bacteria in your gut, which could reduce the risk of future confusion episodes.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–99 - NCT06434610RecruitingPhase 2
Study of B013 plus paclitaxel for ovarian cancer
This study tests a new drug (B013) combined with a standard chemotherapy (paclitaxel) for people with ovarian cancer that has come back after platinum-based treatment. The goal is to see if the combination works better than the current options.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT06401980RecruitingPhase 2
Darolutamide for advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy
This trial tests the drug darolutamide for men whose prostate cancer has spread and is no longer controlled by standard hormone therapy. It may be an option if you've already had certain hormone treatments for at least 12 months but your cancer is still progressing.
AarauAges 18 years+ - NCT06388707RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Ultrasound therapy for drug-resistant temporal lobe epilepsy
This study tests if a new, non-invasive ultrasound treatment can safely reduce seizures in people whose seizures start in the temporal lobe and have not been controlled by at least two anti-epileptic drugs. The ultrasound is delivered through the scalp to gently stimulate the brain area where the seizures begin.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06396312Recruiting
Predicting lithium response in difficult depression
This study looks at how to predict which people with hard-to-treat depression will benefit from adding lithium to their antidepressant. If you have treatment-resistant depression and are considering lithium, this trial may help find the best treatment for you.

Opevesostat combinations for advanced prostate cancer
This study tests a new drug called opevesostat, alone or combined with other treatments, for men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread and stopped responding to hormone therapy. It aims to see if it can help control the cancer.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06354088RecruitingPhase 1
Study of alpelisib for insulin resistance
This study tests a single dose of a drug called alpelisib (a PI3K inhibitor) to see how it affects insulin and blood sugar in people who are either insulin sensitive or insulin resistant. The goal is to understand why some people become resistant to insulin, which may help find new treatments for diabetes and related conditions.

BordeauxAges 9 years+ - NCT05833087Recruiting
Schema therapy for long-lasting, hard-to-treat depression
This study tests whether schema therapy can help people with chronic depression that hasn’t improved enough with standard antidepressant treatments. You’d be in a psychiatric clinic and be assessed for severity and diagnosis, then receive the therapy being studied.
Ballerup MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT06316349Recruiting

Comparing two types of ketamine for stubborn depression
This study compares two forms of ketamine to see which works better for depression that hasn't improved with at least two other antidepressants. If you've tried multiple antidepressants without success, this trial might help find a more effective treatment.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for resistance?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,198 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.
