Recruiting studies
- NCT06869096Recruiting
Flushing liquid during colorectal cancer surgery
This trial compares two different liquids used to flush the surgical area during colorectal cancer surgery to see which one better prevents infections. If you are having surgery for colorectal cancer, you may be able to join.
Nanchong, SichuanAges 18–85 - NCT06731881Recruiting
Light therapy to prevent infections after sinus or nose surgery
This study tests if a special light therapy can help prevent infections after sinus or nose surgeries. The treatment is given in addition to standard care and might lower the chance of needing more antibiotics.
London, LondonAges 16 years+ - NCT06569862Recruiting
Comparing early vs. late dressing removal after abdominal surgery
This trial compares taking off the surgical dressing one day after surgery versus waiting about 6 days after elective (planned) abdominal surgery to see which approach reduces the risk of surgical site infections.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT05966961Recruiting
Compare two stitches to close surgical wounds
This trial compares two types of dissolvable stitches to close wounds after abdominal (belly) surgery done through open surgery or small incisions. It aims to see which stitch option works better or is safer for healing and recovery.
NaplesAges 18 years+ - NCT05571722RecruitingPhase 4
Antibiotic prevention for surgical site infections
This trial tests whether using linezolid or vancomycin before surgery can better prevent infections at the surgical wound in people at higher risk. You might be considered because you either can’t take certain standard antibiotics (beta-lactams) and/or may carry MRSA bacteria.
MarseilleAges 18 years+ - NCT05447559RecruitingPhase 4
Testing how long to give antibiotics after heart surgery
This study looks at how long patients should receive an antibiotic after certain types of heart surgery, to help prevent infections. It may help find the best “duration” of antibiotic prophylaxis after surgery through the breastbone (median sternotomy).
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04678154RecruitingPhase 3
Antibiotic trial for severe open fractures of the leg or foot
This trial tests a new way of giving antibiotics to people with severe open fractures in the leg, ankle, or foot. The goal is to see if it helps prevent infections after surgery.
Redwood City, CaliforniaAges 18–64 - NCT03561376RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Zinc ointment versus petroleum jelly after skin surgery
This early-phase trial compares zinc oxide ointment versus petroleum jelly to help healing and scar appearance after certain skin surgeries. You might be able to join if you are having a suitable, uninfected, non-scalp skin incision and can use the study ointment.
Pittsburgh, PA, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07093437Recruiting
Comparing ways to secure urinary catheters in ICU patients
This study compares two methods of securing a urinary catheter to the thigh to see which works better. It's for patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) who need a catheter for more than 48 hours.
BarcelonaAges 18–99 - NCT07525674Recruiting
Vacuum Sealing Drainage for Infected Surgical Wounds
This trial tests whether a special vacuum-sealed dressing (called VSD) helps heal surgical wounds that became infected after obstetric or gynecological surgery. The goal is to see if this treatment speeds healing and reduces complications.
MinyaAges 18–70 - NCT05918510Recruiting
Blood and tumor study for virus markers in throat cancer
This study looks at virus-related markers and tiny gene regulators (microRNAs) in tumor tissue from people with certain throat cancers caused by human papilloma virus (HPV). It’s observational, meaning it does not change your treatment, but results may help doctors better understand these cancers and how they behave.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT07380477Recruiting
Infection risk study for external ventricular drains
This trial looks at whether the fluid from your brain drain (called CSF) can help predict infections. It compares samples taken from different spots on the drain to find better ways to catch infections early.
CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT05897099Recruiting
Telehealth harm-reduction for people at HIV risk
This study tests whether a telehealth program can reduce harm and lower HIV risk by helping with safer syringe use. It may help if you have recent syringe exchange use and are not currently on HIV prevention pills.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05421325RecruitingPhase 2
Vaccine-like immune treatment to prevent lung infections in seniors
This Phase 2 study tests a site-specific immune “booster” in people age 65 and older to help improve natural immunity and reduce respiratory (lung/airway) infections. You may be eligible if you can consent, are in an eligible living situation, and are not currently using certain immune-suppressing medicines.
Burnaby, British ColumbiaAges 65 years+ - NCT07822971Recruiting
Infection prevention training for intensive care teams
This trial tests whether hands-on training for intensive care staff reduces infections in patients. If you are staying in the ICU for more than 48 hours, your data may be used to see if this training helps.
MetzAges 18 years+ - NCT06834113Recruiting
Testing pain relief from HIV shot location and virtual reality
This study looks at whether changing where you get your HIV injection (in the buttock area) and using a virtual reality headset during the shot can reduce pain. It is for people whose HIV is well-controlled with the injectable medicines cabotegravir and rilpivirine.
Orléans, LoiretAges 18 years+

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for site infection?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 64 recruiting site infection 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 site infection 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 site infection 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.
