Recruiting studies
- NCT07550543Recruiting
PEMF Therapy for Chronic Shoulder Pain
This study tests whether pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy—a treatment using magnetic pulses—can reduce chronic shoulder pain and improve how well your shoulder works. You would receive this therapy at a rehabilitation center over several weeks.
Constanța, TechirghiolAges 18–70 - NCT06095050Recruiting
Embolization for chronic shoulder pain
This trial tests a procedure called embolization to treat long-lasting shoulder pain that hasn't improved with other treatments like physical therapy or injections. The goal is to see if blocking certain blood vessels can reduce pain and improve function.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 21–80 - NCT07545785Recruiting
Electroacupuncture and cupping for shoulder tendon pain
This trial tests whether electroacupuncture (needles with gentle electrical stimulation) and cupping (suction therapy) can reduce shoulder pain from tendon inflammation. You'll receive these traditional treatments if your shoulder pain is moderate and caused by tendon injury rather than other conditions.
Ho Chi Minh CityAges 18–70 - NCT07546084Recruiting
Exercise Program for Rotator Cuff Shoulder Pain
This study tests whether a special exercise program that trains you to focus your attention in different ways can reduce shoulder pain and improve function. You'll do exercises designed to help your rotator cuff (the muscles that stabilize your shoulder) while learning to shift your mental focus during movement.
IstanbulAges 18–65 - NCT06376981RecruitingPhase 3
Hyaluronic acid injection for shoulder tendon pain
This trial tests if an injection of hyaluronic acid (a natural lubricant) can reduce pain and improve function in people with shoulder tendinopathy (irritation of a tendon). It’s for those who haven’t gotten better with other treatments like rest or physical therapy.
La Roche-sur-YonAges 18–65 - NCT06536582Recruiting
Nutrition’s role in PRGF treatment for shoulder tendon pain
This trial studies how diet affects the success of a special blood-based treatment (PRGF) for shoulder tendon pain. It may help you heal better from tendinopathy.
MilanAges 18–70 - NCT07094178Recruiting
Steroid vs PRP shots for shoulder tendon pain
This trial compares two treatments for shoulder tendinopathy: a corticosteroid shot or a platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection. It aims to find which one works better to relieve pain and improve function.
TunisAges 18 years+ - NCT07053566Enrolling by invitation
Back muscle strengthening for rotator cuff tendinopathy
This study tests whether strengthening a back muscle (latissimus dorsi) helps people with rotator cuff tendinopathy. You may be able to join if you have had shoulder pain for at least 3 months and meet certain medical criteria.
AnkaraAges 18–50 - NCT07688902Recruiting
Comparing two injection methods for partial rotator cuff tears
This study compares two ways of injecting a sugar-water solution (5% dextrose) into the shoulder to treat partial rotator cuff tears. It may help reduce pain and improve shoulder function without surgery.
AnkaraAges 18–75 - NCT06379997Recruiting
Oral supplement vs. shoulder injection for rotator cuff pain
This trial compares taking an oral supplement versus getting hyaluronic acid injections for ongoing shoulder pain due to a partial rotator cuff tear. It aims to see which treatment works better for improving movement and reducing pain without surgery.
Roma, RMAges 30–80 - NCT07502209Recruiting
Two types of nerve treatment for chronic shoulder pain
This study compares two methods of treating chronic shoulder pain by using a needle to deliver a special type of electrical pulse to a nerve in the shoulder. The goal is to find which method provides better pain relief for people with shoulder pain from a rotator cuff problem.
AnkaraAges 40–80 - NCT05292339RecruitingPhase 4
Ketorolac shot for painful hand and arm tendon/joint problems
This trial studies whether a ketorolac injection can safely reduce pain and symptoms from certain shoulder, elbow, hand, or wrist tendon or joint conditions. It may help people who haven’t had surgery for the problem yet.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07231471Recruiting
Platelet-rich plasma for muscle and joint pain
This study tests whether an injection of your own platelet-rich plasma (PRP) can help heal muscle, tendon, or joint problems that haven't gotten better with other treatments like physical therapy or medications.

- How do I know if I qualify for a shoulder tendinopathy 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 shoulder tendinopathy 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.
