Recruiting studies near New York
- NCT03233399Recruiting
Brain stimulation study for movement intention and symptoms
This trial tests how a form of brain stimulation affects how people plan or carry out movement, and how symptoms show up on tasks. It may help researchers understand why symptoms happen and whether brain stimulation can change movement intention or related brain signals.
New York, New YorkAges 18–65 - NCT05718817Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Long-term study of XEN1101 for people with epilepsy
This study gives XEN1101 in an open-label way (everyone knows they’re getting the drug) to people who finished earlier epilepsy studies. It aims to see how the treatment continues to work and whether it’s safe over the long term.
New York, New YorkAges 12 years+ - NCT06859424RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new GVHD prevention method after donor stem cell transplant
This trial tests a new way to prevent graft-versus-host disease (a common side effect of stem cell transplant) using a drug called cyclophosphamide after transplant. It is for adults with certain blood cancers who need a transplant from a partially matched unrelated donor.
New York, New YorkAges 18–66 - NCT05076617Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Testing a long-acting rescue seizure medicine for prolonged seizures
This Phase 3 study tests the safety and side effects of Staccato alprazolam for teens and adults (12+) who have certain types of long-lasting seizures. It may help people by offering a specific medicine option aimed at stopping prolonged seizure episodes under close medical study.
New York, New YorkAges 12 years+ - NCT07219407RecruitingPhase 2
Long-term safety study of RAP-219 for focal seizures
This study tests the long-term safety and effectiveness of RAP-219, an investigative medication for focal epilepsy. It is for people who already completed an earlier study of RAP-219, have a type of epilepsy that doesn't respond to standard medicines, and use a surgically implanted brain device (RNS system) to help manage seizures.
New York, New YorkAges 18–70 - NCT07287163Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Long-term study of vormatrigine for epilepsy
This trial is for adults with epilepsy who have already taken vormatrigine in a previous study or through a special access program. It aims to collect ongoing safety and effectiveness information.
New York, New YorkAges 18–85 - NCT03492060Recruiting
Study of genetic variants in neurogenetic disorders over time
This study looks at how people’s genetic test results relate to health changes over time in conditions caused by gene differences. If you already have genetic confirmation of a disease-causing variant, you may be able to join.
New York, New YorkAges Any age - NCT05077904RecruitingPhase 3
Staccato alprazolam study for prolonged seizures in teens and adults
This Phase 3 trial tests whether staccato alprazolam can reduce and manage “prolonged seizures” that happen repeatedly in people with epilepsy. It also checks safety—especially breathing and heart-related side effects—while participants continue their usual seizure medicines.
New York, New YorkAges 12 years+ - NCT05219617RecruitingPhase 3
Carisbamate for frequent drop seizures in Lennox-Gastaut
This Phase 3 study tests whether carisbamate can reduce drop seizures in people with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS). It also checks whether the treatment is safe when added to existing seizure medicines.
The Bronx, New YorkAges 4–55 - NCT07563881RecruitingPhase 3
Testing RAP-219 for Focal Seizure Control in Adults
This study tests whether a new medication called RAP-219 can help adults with focal seizures (seizures that start in one area of the brain) control their seizures better. You would take this medication alongside your current seizure drugs for about 12 weeks.
Hackensack, New JerseyAges 18–75 - NCT05716100RecruitingPhase 3
Study drug for focal epilepsy that isn’t controlled on current meds
This trial tests XEN1101 compared with a placebo (inactive pill) in people with focal-onset seizures that haven’t been fully controlled despite trying at least two anti-seizure medicines. If you qualify, you may help researchers see whether the study drug reduces seizure frequency and improves control.
Hackensack, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06908356RecruitingPhase 2
Testing PRAX-628 for focal or tonic-clonic seizures
This study tests an experimental pill called PRAX-628 for adults whose seizures are not fully controlled by current medications. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective at reducing seizures.
Hackensack, New JerseyAges 18–75 - NCT05667142RecruitingPhase 3
Testing an add-on drug for hard-to-control generalized convulsive seizures
This Phase 3 trial tests XEN1101 added to your current seizure medicines for people with primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures. It’s for seizures that have not fully stopped even after trying at least two appropriate medicines.
Hackensack, New JerseyAges 12 years+ - NCT07233239RecruitingPhase 1
CBD liquid for focal epilepsy seizures
This trial tests a new cannabidiol (CBD) liquid medicine for people with focal epilepsy (seizures that start in one part of the brain). It looks at whether the medication can help reduce seizures when added to your current seizure medications.
Edison, New JerseyAges 12–75 - NCT04715646RecruitingPhase 3
Brivaracetam study for children with hard-to-control seizures
This trial looks at how safe brivaracetam is and how well it can be used in children and teens with certain types of epilepsy that are not well controlled. It may help families who are dealing with frequent focal seizures despite taking seizure medicines.

What taking part in a seizures study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
