Early cognitive rehab for moderate brain injury recovery
This trial tests whether starting cognitive rehabilitation early after a moderate traumatic brain injury helps improve thinking, memory, and daily function. If you're an adult with a moderate brain injury who is medically stable, this study may help you regain skills faster.
Cairo, ManialAges 18 years+ - NCT06963775Enrolling by invitation
Brain injury study using magnetic brain stimulation
This study uses a non-invasive magnetic stimulation technique to measure brain activity in people who have had a traumatic brain injury (TBI). It aims to see if this tool can help doctors better understand and track recovery after a head injury.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06966713Recruiting
Predicting recovery after severe brain injury
This study looks at patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) who already need brain pressure or oxygen monitoring. Doctors want to see if certain tests can help predict how well someone might recover.

Light therapy for older adults with traumatic brain injury
This study tests whether a painless light therapy applied to the head can help older adults (55-85) who had a moderate or severe traumatic brain injury 1-2 years ago. It aims to see if the treatment improves thinking and memory.
New York, New YorkAges 55–85 - NCT06956417Recruiting
Memory rehab after concussion
This trial tests a memory rehabilitation program for people who have had a concussion and still have memory problems. It uses a computer, tablet, or smartphone to help improve memory.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18–59 - NCT06958406Recruiting
Brain-heart connection after head injury
This study uses brain scans (MRI) to understand how a traumatic brain injury can affect the heart. It may help find better ways to treat the brain-heart connection after a head injury.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT06953674RecruitingPhase 3
Saline versus balanced fluids for traumatic brain injury
This trial compares two types of intravenous fluids (saline vs. balanced crystalloids) given to people with traumatic brain injury when they arrive in the emergency room. The goal is to find out which fluid leads to better outcomes.
Louisville, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT06940232Recruiting
Blood test study for traumatic brain injury in kids
This study is testing whether a blood test can detect traumatic brain injury (TBI) in children. If successful, it could offer a quicker, less invasive way to diagnose concussions and other head injuries, reducing the need for CT scans or MRIs.
Omaha, NebraskaAges Up to 17 years - NCT05622461Recruiting
Recovery support program for children after traumatic brain injury
This trial supports families during the early weeks after a child’s brain injury and hospital stay. It aims to help caregivers and children move toward recovery with better support after discharge.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06901310Enrolling by invitation
Hyperbaric oxygen for mild head injuries in combat athletes
This study tests whether hyperbaric oxygen therapy (breathing pure oxygen in a special chamber) helps men recover from mild head injuries better than the current standard care (rest). It is for male unarmed combat athletes who have been suspended for a head injury.
Marshfield, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT03170440Recruiting
Non-invasive nerve stimulation for PTSD and sleep
This study tests a non-invasive way to stimulate nerves without surgery in people with PTSD, especially looking at sleep and related symptoms. It may help by improving how your nervous system and sleep patterns work over time.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18–55 - NCT06871124Recruiting
Early brain stimulation for traumatic brain injury
This study tests whether early brain stimulation can help recovery after a moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). It might help improve thinking and awareness in patients who can already speak and follow directions.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18–80 - NCT06866691RecruitingPhase 4
Seizure prevention after traumatic brain injury
This trial tests two medicines, levetiracetam and lacosamide, to see which works better at preventing seizures in people who have had a traumatic brain injury. The goal is to find the safest and most effective way to protect your brain after injury.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06848140Recruiting
Brain stimulation for word-finding problems after TBI
This study tests whether non-invasive brain stimulation can help people with chronic traumatic brain injury (TBI) find words more easily. It involves sessions at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–85 - NCT06839079Recruiting
Brain training for trauma survivors with head injury
This study tests a cognitive rehabilitation program for people with traumatic brain injury who have also experienced war, violence, or other trauma. It aims to improve memory and thinking skills using exercises and strategies.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–65 - NCT06333990RecruitingPhase 3
Quetiapine for concussion symptoms in veterans
This study tests whether quetiapine (a medication that can help with mood, sleep, and thinking) reduces ongoing concussion symptoms in veterans who had a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) at least 6 months ago. You may join if you are already taking at least three medications for your brain or mental health symptoms and have some PTSD symptoms.
Albuquerque, New MexicoAges 18–65 - NCT06817837Enrolling by invitation
Can hypnosis help adults with brain injury?
This study tests if hypnosis can help adults with stroke or traumatic brain injury who have symptoms like anxiety, trouble sleeping, pain, or behavior issues. Researchers want to see if it's a feasible and useful addition to usual care.
Tinlot, LiègeAges 18 years+ - NCT04588311RecruitingPhase 3
Epoetin to improve outcomes in severe trauma ICU patients
This trial tests epoetin alfa (a blood-building medicine) to help reduce death and severe disability in critically ill trauma patients in the ICU. You may be considered if your ICU team expects a longer stay and the timing after injury is early.
Camperdown, New South WalesAges 18–75 - NCT05065450Recruiting
Testing whether brain stimulation improves memory in epilepsy
This trial looks at ways to improve memory by targeting specific deep brain areas in people with epilepsy. You may be eligible if you are already scheduled for long-term video monitoring with implanted depth electrodes in the memory-related regions (amygdala, hippocampus, and nearby areas).
St Louis, MissouriAges 18–75 - NCT06782464Recruiting
Freezing nerves for shoulder pain after stroke or brain injury

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for traumatic brain injury?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 362 recruiting traumatic brain injury 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 traumatic brain injury 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 traumatic brain injury 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.
