Recruiting studies
- NCT06836349Recruiting
Comparing hand therapy methods after thumb tendon surgery
This trial compares different rehabilitation programs after surgery for a cut thumb tendon (the one that bends your thumb). It aims to find which therapy approach helps patients recover better.
LinköpingAges 15 years+ - NCT07320807Recruiting
Shock wave therapy after flexor tendon repair
This study tests whether a non-invasive treatment called extracorporeal shock wave therapy can help improve hand function after flexor tendon repair surgery. The therapy uses sound waves to stimulate healing and reduce scar tissue, and it may help you regain movement more quickly.
AnkaraAges 18–50 - NCT04312412Recruiting
Follow-up of treatment for finger tendon injuries
This study looks at outcomes—how well treatment works—after injuries to the finger or thumb flexor tendons. If your injury happened in a certain location of the tendon and you meet other safety criteria, your care and results may help improve future treatment.
Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges 18–75 - NCT06641401Enrolling by invitation
Endoscopic tendon transfer for acute Achilles rupture
This study looks at patients who had a specific type of surgery (endoscopic FHL transfer) for a recent Achilles tendon tear. It aims to check how well they recovered after at least two years.
Náousa, Central MacedoniaAges 18–18 - NCT06356766Recruiting
Home-based rehab for hand tendon injuries via video calls
This trial tests if doing hand therapy exercises at home through video calls (telerehabilitation) works as well as in-person therapy for people who had surgery for a specific type of tendon injury in the finger.
IstanbulAges 18–55 - NCT06593912Recruiting
Recovery after peroneal tendon surgery with different casts
This trial compares different immobilization methods after surgery for peroneal tendon or nearby ligament tears. It aims to see which approach leads to better healing and patient-reported outcomes.
GothenburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06114368Enrolling by invitation
Comparing two surgeries for torn Achilles tendon
This trial compares two types of surgery for a fresh Achilles tendon tear: a keyhole procedure using a nearby tendon, versus a minimally invasive repair. It aims to find which approach leads to better recovery.
Náousa, Central MacedoniaAges 18–75 - NCT07338110Recruiting
Achilles tendon surgery study
This study tracks people who have surgery to fix their Achilles tendon. It helps doctors learn more about how these surgeries go and how patients recover.
Paris, Île-de-France RegionAges 7 years+ - NCT05614908Enrolling by invitation
Testing outcomes after non-surgical Achilles tendon rupture care
This trial looks at how well people do after an Achilles tendon rupture when they are treated without surgery. It may help improve recovery guidance for others by comparing outcomes based on how care is followed.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT06617559Recruiting
Comparing two tendon grafts for ACL repair
This trial compares two types of tendon grafts (quadriceps versus hamstring) to see which works better for ACL reconstruction. It may help athletes find the best option for their knee injury.
IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT06780202RecruitingPhase 2
Steroid to reduce opioid use after foot/ankle surgery
This study tests whether a steroid medicine called Medrol Dosepak can help reduce the need for opioid painkillers after foot or ankle surgery. If you are having foot or ankle surgery at Emory and are generally healthy, you may be able to join.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18–95 - NCT04104126Recruiting
Blood flow restriction therapy for an Achilles injury
This trial looks at whether “blood flow restriction” during exercise can improve healing for people with an Achilles injury. You may be asked to also do standard physical therapy, but the study focuses on the added blood-flow-restriction approach.
New York, New YorkAges 18–65 - NCT05241197Recruiting
Low-load leg training with blood flow restriction for Achilles pain
This study tests whether gentle resistance exercises plus a blood-flow restriction wrap can reduce long-lasting Achilles tendon pain. You may be asked to train in the clinic several times a week for 12 weeks.
Rosario, Santa Fe ProvinceAges 18–50 - NCT06631976Recruiting
Non-surgical treatment for partial rotator cuff tear
This trial tests a conservative (non-surgical) approach for people with a small tear in the supraspinatus tendon (a rotator cuff muscle) that is causing shoulder pain and sleep problems. It aims to see if avoiding surgery can help improve symptoms and sleep quality.
Lodz, Łódź VoivodeshipAges 40–75 - NCT07025252Enrolling by invitation
VersaWrap patch for Achilles tendon repair
This trial tests a special wrap (VersaWrap) used during surgery to repair a torn or damaged Achilles tendon. It may help the tendon heal better and could be an option for people who need this type of surgery.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–90 - NCT05746650Recruiting
Study to improve healing after knee muscle-tendon repair
This study looks at how to improve healing at the muscle-tendon connection after knee reconstruction surgery. You may be able to join if you’re otherwise healthy, within a certain body-size range, and not using medicines that could change muscle or tendon healing.
CopenhagenAges 18–35 - NCT06733025Recruiting
Comparing surgery and Botox for arm spasticity
This trial compares two treatments—Botox injections or surgery—for arm and hand spasticity after a stroke, brain injury, or spinal cord injury. It may help you decide which option works best for you.
MölndalAges 18 years+ - NCT05461326Recruiting
Compare two tendon grafts for ACL surgery recovery
This study compares two ways to rebuild the ACL using different tendon grafts (quadriceps tendon vs patellar tendon) taken from your own body. It aims to learn which option leads to better recovery after ACL reconstruction, including strength and function.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 14–65 - NCT04276181Recruiting
Nerve and tendon transfer surgery for hand function after spinal cord injury
This trial studies a specialized surgery that reroutes nerves and tendons to help restore hand and grip function after a spinal cord injury. It may help some people regain more useful hand movement if their arm muscle strength and nerve signals are strong enough.
MölndalAges 15–55 - NCT06483256Recruiting
Outcomes after surgery for biceps tendon injury
This study looks at how well patients do after surgery for a biceps tendon injury, using a specific surgical technique. It may help you understand what results to expect if you have had this type of surgery.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT07475351Recruiting
Comparing two grafts for ACL reconstruction
This trial compares two types of grafts to rebuild the ACL in the knee, to see if one leads to better results. It is for active athletes with a recent ACL tear and healthy knees.
Granada, GranadaAges 12–40 - NCT06446336Recruiting
New score for diagnosing long biceps tendon injuries
This study is creating a new scoring system to help doctors better diagnose injuries to the long biceps tendon before surgery. If you are planning surgery for shoulder pain that hasn't improved with treatment, this research may help improve how your condition is managed.
Le HavreAges 18 years+ - NCT06418217Recruiting
Exercise and education for lateral hip pain
This study tests whether exercise and patient education can help people with long-term lateral hip pain (pain on the outside of the hip). If you've had hip pain for over 6 months and an MRI confirms the cause, you may be able to join.
Horsens, HorsensAges 18–75 - NCT07671729Recruiting
Comparing two tendon grafts for ACL surgery
This study compares two types of tendon grafts (from your kneecap tendon or from a tendon in your leg) for ACL reconstruction. The goal is to see which one works better for getting you back to normal activity.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for tendon injuries?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 30 recruiting tendon injuries 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 tendon injuries 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 tendon injuries 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.
