- NCT03906253Recruiting
Laser treatment to prevent skin growth in older adults
This trial tests whether a type of laser treatment can help protect older adults’ skin from turning actinic keratosis (a sun-related precancer) into more serious skin problems. It focuses on the forearms and may help reduce future skin damage while checking safety and comfort.

CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT04380051Recruiting
Sensory touch therapy to help parents bond with very preterm babies
This study tests whether a gentle sensory “stimulation” approach can improve how parents and very preterm babies interact and support the baby’s social development. If you qualify, you and your baby would be asked to take part so researchers can see whether this early intervention helps bonding and social skills.
ReimsAges Up to 1 day - NCT04589442RecruitingPhase 4
Graft treatment for deep burns using processed donor skin
This trial tests whether a “microsurfaced” donor-skin graft can heal deep burn wounds (partial- or full-thickness burns) after recent injury. It may help improve healing when the burn area is large enough and not infected.
Augusta, GeorgiaAges 21 years+ - NCT04759443Recruiting
Skin testing to detect small-fiber nerve damage
This study looks for small-fiber neuropathy (nerve damage that can affect pain and sensation) by examining skin properties. It may help researchers find easier ways to detect this condition using skin-based testing.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04844528RecruitingPhase 2
Nicotinamide for CLL patients with recent skin cancer history
This Phase 2 trial tests whether nicotinamide (a form of vitamin B3) can help people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who have had non-melanoma skin cancers in the past 5 years. The study looks at how well new skin cancers can be prevented or reduced.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 18 years+ - NCT04916457Recruiting
Studying skin germs in diabetes-related foot skin problems
This study collects skin samples from people with and without type 2 diabetes, especially around foot skin problems, to learn how skin “micro-germs” differ. The goal is to better understand what’s going on in diabetic skin lesions and possibly guide future care.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT05579496Recruiting
Rebooting infant pain care using skin-to-skin contact
This trial tests how skin-to-skin contact affects pain and brain activity in premature babies during a routine heel prick. It may help find better ways to manage pain for infants in the NICU.
Toronto, OntarioAges 6 months–8 months - NCT04979078Recruiting
Light therapy to ease chemotherapy hand-foot skin reaction
This study tests whether a light-based therapy (photobiomodulation) can reduce pain and skin irritation from hand-foot syndrome/hand-foot skin reaction in people getting chemotherapy or targeted medicines. It may help you heal sooner and feel more comfortable while treatment continues.
Hasselt, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT05032768Recruiting
Study links between skin bacteria and radiation skin reactions
This study looks at how changes in the skin’s normal bacteria (microbiome) relate to getting redness, irritation, or rash after breast radiation. It may help doctors predict who is more likely to have skin side effects after reconstruction and radiation.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT05196061Recruiting
Skin and gut sample study for healthy people
This study builds a detailed library of the microbes living on your skin and in your gut. It may help researchers better understand how these microbes relate to health and future diseases.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05246163Recruiting
Smartphone app that helps detect skin cancer
This trial tests an artificial-intelligence smartphone app that helps spot possible skin cancer by looking at skin spots (lesions). You may benefit by getting guidance on whether your new or changing mole needs closer attention.
Ghent, East FlandersAges 18 years+ - NCT05373823Recruiting
Online skin check coaching for melanoma survivors
This study tests an online program to help melanoma survivors do full-body skin self-checks regularly. It may help you catch new or changing skin areas earlier by improving how often and how thoroughly you check.
New Brunswick, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05389332Recruiting
Mobile WhatsApp program to help reduce skin cancer risk
This trial tests a mobile phone health program (using WhatsApp) to help Hispanic adults lower their risk of skin cancer. It focuses on encouraging better sun protection and checking your skin regularly.
New Brunswick, New JerseyAges 18–100 - NCT05463757Recruiting
Oral drugs for advanced or multiple basal cell skin cancer
This study registers people in the Netherlands who have certain types of basal cell skin cancer and take an oral hedgehog-blocking medicine. It may help doctors understand how well these tablets work and how patients do in real life.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges Any age - NCT05532865Recruiting
Biobank study for adults with systemic sclerosis
This study follows adults with systemic sclerosis who are being seen at a specific hospital and asks for consent to store blood and other samples for future research. It may help researchers better understand the disease and develop better tests or treatments over time.
BrestAges 18 years+ - NCT05575882Recruiting
Skin cream trial to prevent relapses in very dry eczema skin
This trial tests whether a cosmetic cream can reduce eczema flare-ups and is comfortable/safe to use on very dry, irritated, eczema-prone skin. It’s mainly for children who have had recent flare-ups and moderate eczema severity.
