Recruiting studies
- NCT05805683Recruiting
Calcitonin for nerve pain after spinal cord injury
This study tests whether calcitonin can prevent or lessen nerve pain after a spinal cord injury. It may help reduce how often neuropathic (nerve-type) pain happens and how severe it becomes.
Tanta, Gharbia GovernorateAges 18 years+ - NCT07603752Recruiting
Brain implant to restore arm movement in spinal cord injury
This trial tests a wireless implant placed on the brain's surface to help people with cervical (neck-level) spinal cord injuries regain some arm and hand movement. The device reads brain signals and sends them to muscles, potentially bypassing the damaged spinal cord.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT06429735Recruiting
Robot-implanted brain-computer interface for severe paralysis
This trial tests a brain-computer interface (a device that lets you control a computer with your thoughts) that is implanted by a robot. It is for people with severe paralysis who may benefit from a new way to communicate or control devices.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 22–75 - NCT07784088Recruiting
Wireless brain implant for tetraplegia
This trial tests a new implantable brain-computer interface designed to help people with tetraplegia (paralysis of arms and legs) control devices using their thoughts. It may help improve independence and quality of life.
BeijingAges 18–65 - NCT06606119Recruiting
Brain, bone marrow, and gut study after major injury
This study is looking at how the brain, bone marrow, and gut interact after a severe injury. It may help doctors understand how to better treat trauma patients.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18–100 - NCT04212780Recruiting
Testing a smarter DBS system for severe essential tremor
This trial tests an upgraded deep brain stimulation (DBS) system that can “sense” tremor and adjust treatment in a loop. It’s designed for people with severe essential tremor whose tremor is still disabling despite standard DBS and medication.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 21–99 - NCT06104735Recruiting
Hand training with brain and spinal cord stimulation after spinal cord injury
This study tests whether combining hand exercises with stimulation of the brain and spinal cord can improve hand function after a spinal cord injury. You would attend about 53 study visits at the Bronx VA Medical Center.
The Bronx, New YorkAges 18–85 - NCT05765864Recruiting
Study of self-harm in at-risk teens
This study looks at self-harm and thoughts/behaviors related to safety in teenagers who are considered at higher risk. It may help researchers better understand what supports are needed for teens who self-harm without wanting to die.
LjubljanaAges 13–18 - NCT05665998Recruiting
Brain-controlled spinal stimulation for arm rehab after neck injury
This study tests a brain-controlled spinal stimulation approach to improve arm (upper limb) movement after a neck spinal cord injury. It may help people who have very limited arm function after a stable, traumatic injury, using frequent training and device-related checks.
Lausanne, Canton of VaudAges 18–75 - NCT07224256Recruiting
Brain implant trial to help with communication after injury or disease
This trial tests a brain-computer interface (BCI) that is implanted by a robot. It is designed to help people who have lost the ability to speak clearly or use their hands well, due to conditions like ALS, stroke, or spinal cord injury.
Dallas, TexasAges 22–75 - NCT06700304Recruiting
Brain implant to help control devices with thoughts
This clinical trial tests a brain-computer interface (a small device implanted in the brain) that may help people with severe paralysis control external devices like a computer or tablet using only their thoughts. The study is for adults with paralysis from a spinal cord injury or ALS, and requires a stable caregiver.
Toronto, OntarioAges 19 years+ - NCT06829212Recruiting
Wireless brain implant for device control
This trial tests a wireless brain implant that lets you control external devices like a computer or wheelchair just by thinking. It's designed for people with paralysis or double arm amputations who want to regain some independence.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for severe brain injury?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 276 recruiting severe brain injury 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 severe brain injury 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 severe brain injury 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.
