Art therapy for anxiety and depression in teens
This trial tests whether art-based activities can help children and teens aged 8 to 17 who feel anxious or depressed. Parents must agree to let their child join.
Cleveland, OhioAges 8–17 - NCT06495684Recruiting
A brain stimulation study for adults with autism
This trial tests whether mild brain stimulation (transcranial direct current stimulation or tDCS) over multiple sessions can improve thinking, behavior, and brain activity in adults with autism. It may help researchers learn if this safe, noninvasive treatment can support better daily functioning.
Albuquerque, New MexicoAges 18–35 - NCT07055906Recruiting
Video coaching to help Latino families talk about race
This study tests a video-based coaching program to help Latino parents and their 10–14-year-old children talk about race and ethnic background. Families will be recorded having a conversation, then get feedback to strengthen their communication.
Harrisburg, PennsylvaniaAges 10–14 - NCT07252947Recruiting
Stress and anxiety effects on decision-making
This study looks at how stress and anxiety affect the way people make decisions. It may help researchers understand these processes better.
New York, New YorkAges 18–65 - NCT06793488RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Anxiety and alcohol use disorder treatment study
This study tests whether a medication called disulfiram (Antabuse) can help people with alcohol use disorder (AUD) feel less anxious when they stop drinking. Researchers will also use brain scans (MRI) to look at how the brain changes during early abstinence.
New York, New YorkAges 21–55 - NCT05322343Recruiting
Study biobank and brain health in people age 55–80
This study collects blood samples to build a biobank and learn how brain health changes with age. Some participants may also do an MRI scan to better understand brain changes and immune response.
Bordeaux, BordeauxAges 55–80 - NCT05973201Recruiting
Virtual reality to ease anxiety and pain during lung scope
This study tests whether virtual reality (VR) can reduce anxiety and pain and shorten the time during a non-emergency breathing tube/airway procedure in the ICU. If you’re eligible, you may use VR during your first bronchoscopy during this hospital stay.
Aix-en-ProvenceAges 18 years+ - NCT05925322Recruiting
Social reward therapy for depression-related suicidal thoughts
This study looks at whether “social reward” psychotherapy can change brain activity and reduce suicidal thoughts in adults ages 50–80 who also have major depression. You may be offered psychotherapy along with brain scans to see how your brain responds over time.

- How do I know if I qualify for a social anxiety disorder 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 social anxiety disorder 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.
