Recruiting studies
- NCT07674043Recruiting
Pressure monitoring for teen shinbone fractures
This study tests a device that monitors muscle pressure after surgery for a broken shinbone (tibia). The goal is to help doctors detect a dangerous condition called compartment syndrome early, so they can treat it quickly.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 10–21 - NCT07138066Recruiting
Smart crutch tips for guided weight-bearing after tibia fracture
This trial tests a smart crutch tip that helps guide how much weight you put on your leg while recovering from a broken shin bone. It is for people who have had surgery to fix the fracture and are learning to walk again with crutches.
Kyiv, Kyiv OblastAges 18–80 - NCT06658379Recruiting
Can a blood test tell if your broken bone will heal quickly?
This study looks at a specific type of immune cell in your blood to see if it can predict how well a broken bone heals. If you have a certain broken bone and are getting surgery to fix it, you may be able to help find new ways to improve recovery.
Münster, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18–80 - NCT05421741RecruitingPhase 4
Antibiotic-coated nail to help prevent infection
This trial studies a special nail for certain broken shin bones to lower the chance of infection after surgery. If you qualify, the study team will help you receive the antibiotic-coated nail and will follow you closely for about a year.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07134257Recruiting
Smart crutch tips for leg fracture recovery
This study tests a special crutch tip that helps guide how much weight you put on your leg after shinbone surgery. It may help you recover more safely by giving you feedback on your weight-bearing.
Kyiv, Kyiv OblastAges 18–80 - NCT07193524Recruiting
Study of a new tool to analyze fractures before surgery
This trial is testing a new computer tool that helps doctors plan surgery for a broken leg. It looks at pictures of the break to see if it can make surgery better or easier.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05668182Recruiting
TRUMATCH graft cage for broken thigh/leg/arm bone gaps
This study looks at how well a specific metal implant (the TRUMATCH graft cage) works when there is a missing segment of a long bone in the arm, thigh, or shin. It may help stabilize the bone while doctors rebuild the defect with standard surgical care.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07153302Recruiting
Can almonds help heal broken leg bones?
This study tests if eating almonds can help femur (thigh) or tibia (shin) fractures heal faster. If you have a fresh leg break and are 18 to 55, you may be able to join.
KarachiAges 18–55 - NCT07299851Recruiting
Fatty acid supplement for bone healing after a leg fracture
This trial tests whether a supplement made from cetylated fatty acids can help heal a simple leg bone fracture faster after surgery. You might be eligible if you have a specific type of leg fracture fixed with a metal rod inside the bone.
Deurne, AntwerpAges 18–85 - NCT05151926Recruiting
Rehab trial after tibia bone fracture surgery
This trial studies rehabilitation after a tibia (shinbone) shaft fracture that is fixed with a metal nail. You may be asked to complete questionnaires and to take part in a rehab plan that aims to improve recovery after injury.
Jyväskylä, Central FinlandAges 18–65 - NCT05157126RecruitingPhase 4
Gentamicin antibiotic study for open tibia fractures
This trial tests whether a gentamicin antibiotic approach helps heal certain open tibia (shin bone) fractures while lowering infection risk. It focuses on adults with specific types of open, mostly closable tibia wounds treated within set time limits.
Dar es SalaamAges 18 years+ - NCT05766670RecruitingPhase 3
Calcium and antibiotic placed inside tibia nail for open fractures
This Phase 3 study tests whether a calcium/antibiotic “depot” released from an intramedullary nail can lower infection risk in certain open tibia fractures. It may help by delivering antibiotics right at the fracture area while the nail fixes the bone.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03172715Recruiting
Compare knee implant vs surgery for certain tibia fractures
This study compares two ways of treating a specific type of broken upper part of the shinbone near the knee: surgery with plates/screws versus a knee joint replacement. It may help find which option works better for restoring knee function after these fractures.
JyväskyläAges 65 years+ - NCT05859451Recruiting
Heated tobacco product study for surgically treated leg fractures
This study looks at whether a tobacco heating system (instead of cigarettes) affects how well a surgically repaired tibia or femur fracture heals. It mainly targets smokers with a certain smoking history who do not want to join free smoking-cessation seminars.
Tübingen, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT06337292RecruitingPhase 3
Wound vacuum therapy for high-risk leg fractures
This trial tests if a special wound vacuum (negative pressure therapy) applied after surgery can lower the risk of infections and other complications in people with severe leg fractures. If you have a high-risk tibia or ankle fracture, this treatment may help you heal better.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05022485Recruiting
Check infection prevention in high-risk tibia fractures using a special nail
This study follows people age 18+ who broke the tibia (shin bone) and are at higher risk for infection. It compares a standard internal metal nail to a special coated nail to see which one lowers infection problems and supports healing.
InnsbruckAges 18 years+ - NCT06293469Recruiting
Speeding up flap surgery for severe leg injuries
This trial tests whether performing flap surgery sooner after a severe leg injury below the knee leads to better outcomes. If you have an open fracture or dislocation that needs a flap, you may be able to join.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07006675RecruitingPhase 3
NSAIDs for Tibia Fracture Pain and Healing Study
This study tests whether NSAID pain relievers (like ibuprofen) affect bone healing after a broken tibia and if they can help reduce the need for stronger painkillers. If you qualify, you could help doctors learn the safest way to manage pain after this common injury.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18–80 - NCT04589819Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Teriparatide for tibia stress fracture recovery for duty
This trial tests teriparatide, a medication that helps build bone, to see if it can speed recovery and help certain enlisted Army members return to training duty after a tibia bone injury. You may be asked to self-administer the medication while you recover and take part in study follow-ups.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for tibia fracture?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 19 recruiting tibia fracture 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 tibia fracture 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 tibia fracture 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.
