Numbing injection for pain after scoliosis fusion surgery
This trial is testing a new type of numbing injection near the spine to see how well it controls pain after scoliosis surgery. If you are having a posterior spinal fusion for idiopathic scoliosis, you may be able to join and receive the injection plus patient-controlled pain medicine.

Pristina, KosovoAges 10–18 - NCT07702812Recruiting
Schroth and Pilates for teens with scoliosis
This study compares Schroth and Pilates exercises for teenagers with mild to moderate idiopathic scoliosis (curved spine). It aims to see which therapy works best for improving posture and reducing curve progression.
AnkaraAges 10–18 - NCT06643104Recruiting
Testing a 3D scan method for scoliosis in teens
This study tests a new 3D imaging method to assess scoliosis by comparing back height difference and trunk rotation angle. It aims to find a simpler way to measure spinal curves in teenagers with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
HangzhouAges 10–18 - NCT07166328Recruiting
Body Image and Spine Curvature in Scoliosis
This study looks at how teenagers with scoliosis see their own body shape and posture. It may help doctors understand how scoliosis affects self-image and movement.
New Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges 11–18 - NCT07092917Recruiting
Spinal fusion surgery for teen scoliosis
This trial studies the outcomes and complications of posterior spinal fusion surgery in teens with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. It aims to help those with moderate to severe curves that are getting worse quickly or causing functional problems.
Asyut, EgyptAges 8–21 - NCT03107533Recruiting
Shared decision support for moderate scoliosis
This study tests a shared decision-making approach to help people with scoliosis make treatment choices together with their care team. It may help ensure you understand options and feel more confident about your plan.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 13 years+ - NCT03582917RecruitingPhase 2
Vitamin D during rehabilitation for teen scoliosis
This study looks at whether vitamin D affects recovery during rehab for teens with idiopathic scoliosis (a sideways spine curve without a known cause). It may help the rehab process by improving vitamin D–related factors in growing teens.
AsvestochóriAges 10–18 - NCT03862417Recruiting
Exercise program for adults with degenerative scoliosis pain
This pilot study tests an exercise program to help reduce pain and improve function in adults over 50 with degenerative scoliosis. It may be helpful if your spine curve is in a moderate range and you’re not recently had certain injections or surgery.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 50 years+ - NCT04116723Recruiting
Flexible brace treatment for teens with scoliosis
This trial tests whether a flexible brace can help improve or control adolescent idiopathic scoliosis in teenagers whose curve is in a specific range. You may be eligible if you already tried a rigid brace and meet other physical and safety requirements.
Hong KongAges 10–15 - NCT04441411Recruiting
Non-fusion surgery for teens with idiopathic scoliosis
This trial studies a “non-fusion” surgery approach for teenagers with a spinal curve that has worsened despite non-surgical treatments. It aims to see if this surgery can better treat adolescent idiopathic scoliosis while avoiding spinal fusion in eligible patients.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 10–17 - NCT05145725Recruiting
Surgery study for teens with scoliosis needing spinal fusion
This trial looks at a specific surgical technique for teens whose scoliosis is severe enough that doctors have recommended surgery. It may help doctors compare approaches and improve outcomes after spinal fusion.
BrugesAges 12–20 - NCT05538871Recruiting
Testing body movement and physical capacity in scoliosis adults
This study checks how well people can move and perform physical tasks if they have scoliosis (an uneven spine), or if they’re a healthy comparison group. It may help researchers better understand how body structure and function are affected by different types of scoliosis.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT05790031Recruiting
Night brace with smart padding for teenage scoliosis
This trial tests an intelligent nighttime brace with sensors and smart padding to help teens with early scoliosis straighten or stop it from worsening. You may be asked to wear the brace at night and complete tests to track curve changes and comfort.
Hong KongAges 10–13 - NCT05924347Recruiting
Imaging study to spot early spine changes in at-risk children
This study uses MRI and physical measurements to look for early signs of scoliosis (a side-bending of the spine) in children who are at higher risk. It may help doctors understand when scoliosis starts and improve early monitoring.
UtrechtAges 8–11 - NCT06258161Recruiting
How spinal surgery affects balance and reach
This study looks at how adult spinal deformity surgery affects your ability to reach forward and balance. It compares the results of surgery with healthy adults to see if the surgery helps improve everyday movements.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06314594Recruiting
Personalized care for teens with scoliosis
This study tests a personalized health management plan for teens with mild to moderate scoliosis (spine curve less than 45 degrees). It aims to help prevent the curve from getting worse and improve treatment through a special online platform.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 3–18 - NCT06451562Recruiting
Pain relief methods after scoliosis surgery
This trial compares two ways to manage pain after scoliosis surgery: numbing the area near the spine (regional anesthesia) or giving lidocaine through an IV. The goal is to see which method reduces the need for morphine after surgery.
Be’er Ya‘aqovAges 12–25 - NCT06502613Recruiting
Scoliosis and Sleep Cycle in Children
This study looks at how sleep timing (melatonin levels) might be linked to new cases of scoliosis in children. If you have scoliosis and are between 6 and 15, you may help researchers understand this connection.

Tether surgery to treat pediatric spine curvature
This study looks at a surgical method (an “anterior vertebral body tether”) to help straighten the spine in growing children with certain types of scoliosis. It aims to see how well the tether system works over the next 2 years, compared with expected progress without the surgery.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for scoliosis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 122 recruiting scoliosis 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 scoliosis 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 scoliosis 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.
