Recruiting studies
- NCT07192757Recruiting
Trial to help you hear speech in noisy places
This study tests a new way to help people with age-related hearing loss understand conversations in noisy environments. It might improve your ability to hear clearly when there is background noise.

Hidden hearing loss: brain waves and speech in noise
This study explores a possible condition called 'hidden hearing loss' – where you struggle to hear in noisy situations despite passing a standard hearing test. It uses a special brain-wave test (LS Chirp ABR) to see if there is a link between your brain's response and how well you understand speech in noise.
IstanbulAges 20–60 - NCT07233148Recruiting
ALS, MND, or PLS registry study
This observational study creates a registry for people with ALS, MND, or PLS. It helps researchers better understand these conditions and find possible treatments.

This study is for people who have had treatment for head or neck cancer and now have a nasal-sounding voice. It tests a procedure to help improve speech by adding a small amount of filler material to the back of the throat.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07354139Recruiting
Can brain stimulation help adults who stutter speak more fluently?
This study uses a gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation technique to see if it can reduce speech errors in adults who have stuttered since childhood. If you are 22 or older, speak English as your main language, and have developmental stuttering, you may be able to join.
Richardson, TexasAges 22 years+ - NCT07380269Recruiting
Long-term study of cochlear implant outcomes
This study follows people who get a cochlear implant – a device that helps restore hearing. It tracks how well you hear over time and checks for any long-term benefits or problems.
ShanghaiAges Any age - NCT07392411Recruiting
AI study of face and speech in Parkinson's disease
This study uses artificial intelligence to analyze facial expressions and speech patterns in people with Parkinson's disease, multiple system atrophy, or progressive supranuclear palsy. The goal is to find digital markers that may help track the disease.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 15–75 - NCT07392554Recruiting
Virtual reality for public speaking practice
This trial tests if virtual reality can help higher education students improve their public speaking skills. You'll use a VR program to practice speaking in front of an audience, which may reduce anxiety and improve your confidence.
Liège, LiègeAges 20–30 - NCT00227253Recruiting
Study center for people with Chromosome 18
This trial is for people with Chromosome 18 (or the parent/guardian of a child with it) to take part in medical checkups and study evaluations. It may help researchers learn more about the condition and how to best evaluate patients safely.
San Antonio, TexasAges Any age - NCT01793168Recruiting
Rare disease registry and history study
This study keeps a registry (a structured list) of people with rare diseases and may also track how the condition changes over time. It can help researchers better understand rare illnesses and find gaps in care, which may improve future treatments.
Sioux Falls, South DakotaAges Any age - NCT02584270Recruiting
Speech training with a mouth prosthesis for early tongue cancer
This trial tests a speech-rehabilitation program using a custom mouth prosthesis for people newly diagnosed with early tongue cancer (T1 or T2). It may help improve speech as you go through cancer treatment.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT02702869Enrolling by invitation
Study of improving care for common facial clefts
This trial is part of a quality-improvement and research program for people with typical facial clefts. It aims to help improve how care is organized and measured across treatment centers, which may benefit future patients and help your team deliver coordinated care.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 1 day–22 years - NCT07397923RecruitingPhase 2
Zenicom digital therapy for post-stroke aphasia
This study tests a digital therapy app called Zenicom that may help improve language problems after a stroke. It is for people who had a first stroke in the last 3 months and now have trouble speaking or understanding language.
Seongnam-siAges 19 years+ - NCT07420829Recruiting
Emotions and development in preschoolers
This study looks at how emotions and thinking skills develop in children aged 3 to 6 who go to preschool. The goal is to understand what affects a child's growth and to find better ways to support them.
Gdansk, Pomeranian VoivodeshipAges 3–6 - NCT07455760Recruiting
Deep brain stimulation and speech sequencing study
This study looks at how deep brain stimulation affects speech in people with Parkinson's disease or essential tremor. It tests whether the stimulation changes the way you say sequences of sounds.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07527663Recruiting
GyroStim therapy for persistent symptoms after concussion
This study tests whether GyroStim—a specialized rotating chair therapy—can help reduce dizziness, balance problems, and thinking difficulties that last more than 4 weeks after a head injury. GyroStim is designed to retrain how your brain and inner ear work together.
Appleton, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT07531706Recruiting
How Babies' Brains Process Speech Sounds
This study measures how 7–8-month-old babies' brains respond to spoken language. Researchers want to understand early brain development and predict which babies might have language challenges later, especially those with a family history of language or learning difficulties.
Bosisio Parini, LeccoAges 7 months–8 months - NCT07546292Recruiting
Brain Stimulation to Improve Reading and Letter Learning
This study tests whether a safe, non-invasive brain stimulation technique can help improve how your brain learns letters and sounds, and how well you read. You'll receive mild electrical stimulation to your scalp while learning letter-sound pairs, and researchers will use MRI scans to see how your brain responds.
ZurichAges 18–35 - NCT07557771Recruiting
Testing Middle Ear Function with Sound Waves
This research study tests a new way to measure how well your middle ear (the tiny bones behind your eardrum) works using sound waves instead of traditional hearing tests. It involves three groups: people with normal hearing, people with conductive hearing loss, and people scheduled for cochlear implant surgery.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT07560696Recruiting
Web-based therapy for thinking and speech after illness
This study tests whether patients recovering from serious illness in the ICU or stroke ward can use a web-based platform called Cognishine to help rebuild their thinking skills and speech ability. The goal is to see if this online approach works well and is practical for patients receiving support from therapists.
LiverpoolAges 18 years+ - NCT07634614Enrolling by invitation
Speech therapy for reflux-related bloating and belching
This trial tests whether speech and language therapy can help reduce bloating, belching, and other air-related symptoms in people with acid reflux (GERD). Researchers will measure how much the therapy improves these symptoms before and after treatment.
Schlieren, Canton of ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT07558785Enrolling by invitation
Testing speech and memory checks at home for early thinking problems
This study uses a video-based system at home to check your speech and memory, helping doctors spot thinking problems early using artificial intelligence. The goal is to see if this simple, at-home test can reliably catch early memory and thinking changes.
PilsenAges 40 years+ - NCT07438639Enrolling by invitation
Virtual reality language help for kids with language delay
This study tests whether virtual reality games can help preschool children with language delay improve their speaking and understanding skills. It is designed for children ages 3 to 6 with a language disorder but without other major health problems.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for speech?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 197 recruiting speech 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 speech 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 speech 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.
