This study tests whether certain hand function tests are reliable and accurate for people with carpal tunnel syndrome. It helps doctors better understand how the condition affects your hand use.
IzmirAges 18–60 - NCT07707700Recruiting
Training program for reading skills in children with dyslexia
This trial tests a new training program designed to improve visual attention and reading skills in Chinese children with dyslexia. It may help if your child is struggling with reading and has been formally diagnosed.
Hong KongAges 7–10 - NCT06469307Recruiting
Patient advisory board for inclusive cancer research
This study is about forming a community advisory board (a group of patients and researchers) to help make cancer research at Dana-Farber more inclusive and fair. It is not a treatment trial—instead, you would review study materials and give your perspective.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT02544022Recruiting
Testing and validating pain and symptom questionnaires for NF1
This study checks whether patient surveys (questionnaires) can reliably measure symptoms and pain in people with NF1 who have plexiform neurofibromas. It helps create better tools for tracking how you feel and how treatments may affect quality of life.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 5 years+ - NCT03052283Recruiting
Abdominal symptom score test for people with cystic fibrosis
This trial helps create and check a patient-friendly questionnaire that measures abdominal (belly) involvement in cystic fibrosis. It may help your care team better track symptoms over time.
Brandenburg an der HavelAges Any age - NCT03138941Recruiting
Checking if a lupus control definition fits Asia-Pacific patients
This study tests whether a specific lupus “low disease activity” target (called LLDAS) works the same way in people across the Asia-Pacific region. It may help doctors use clearer goals to track how well lupus is controlled.
Adelaide, South AustraliaAges 18 years+ - NCT03408964Recruiting
Blood tests to predict treatment response in prostate cancer
This study checks whether certain blood markers can help predict how well people with prostate cancer will respond to therapy. It may help doctors choose the most effective treatment sooner by using information from your blood.
BellinzonaAges 18 years+ - NCT03586518Recruiting
Non-contrast heart MRI test in dialysis patients
This trial checks whether a new kind of heart MRI (done without contrast dye) can help doctors see heart changes in people receiving hemodialysis. It may help improve how heart health is measured in dialysis care, especially for people with limited time.
Leicester, LeicestershireAges 18 years+ - NCT03683680Recruiting
Collecting pleural tissue samples to study mesothelioma markers
This study collects tissue samples (from the lining around the lung) from adults with malignant pleural mesothelioma. Researchers will use these samples to check whether certain test markers can predict how the disease may behave, which could guide treatment decisions in the future.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03850301Recruiting
Testing a brain inflammation target using an investigational medicine
This study tests whether a medicine that targets a specific brain inflammation marker (TSPO) can help in people with certain types of multiple sclerosis. It focuses on safety and whether the target can be measured and influenced during treatment.
London, EnglandAges 35–65 - NCT03866213Recruiting
Test a jaundice device for newborns in low-resource settings
This trial checks whether a new device can accurately detect and track yellowing of the skin (newborn jaundice) in hospitals with limited resources. It may help clinicians monitor jaundice and decide on treatments like blue light therapy more reliably.
Houston, TexasAges birth–4 weeks - NCT03915418Recruiting
Screening sleep problems in children with cerebral palsy
This trial checks a new way to find sleep problems in children with cerebral palsy using connected tools (like devices/apps). It mainly helps by making sleep screening easier and more accurate, so families can get the right next steps sooner.
AngersAges 6–15 - NCT03959163Recruiting
Quick kidney MRI test in children with kidney infection
This study checks whether a fast kidney MRI (“Quick MRI”) can help doctors in children who are being evaluated for kidney infection (pyelonephritis). It may help confirm kidney involvement without relying only on slower or more complex tests.
Madison, WisconsinAges birth–21 years - NCT04086329RecruitingPhase 1
Testing an oxygen sensor during exercise in muscle disease
This early (Phase 1) study checks whether a tiny oxygen-sensing device works reliably while people with mitochondrial muscle disease (and some healthy volunteers) ride a stationary bike. The goal is to see if the sensor can measure oxygen use during exercise and help future monitoring or research.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18–65 - NCT04126148Recruiting
Breathing test to measure heart oxygen use
This study measures how well the heart uses oxygen during a breathing-based test. It aims to validate a way to assess heart blood flow in people with suspected or known coronary artery disease, using special heart imaging and a heart blood-flow measurement during an angiogram.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT04139616Recruiting
Testing a planned heart rhythm plan after aortic valve replacement
This study tests an algorithm—a step-by-step plan—for how doctors manage abnormal heart rhythms after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). It may help guide safer, more consistent care in the weeks after the procedure.
Québec, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT04189965Recruiting
Study of long-term memory of pain in healthy adults
This study looks at how people remember pain over time. It enrolls healthy adults so researchers can better understand the long-term effects of painful experiences.
BronAges 18–50 - NCT04366804Recruiting
Testing two non-movement symptom questionnaires in Parkinson’s
This study checks whether two written questionnaires can reliably measure “non-motor” symptoms in people with Parkinson’s disease. It may help future care by making symptom tracking easier and more accurate.
BesançonAges 30–75 - NCT04445909Recruiting
Continuous skin carbon dioxide monitoring in heart-lung bypass patients
This study checks whether a sensor placed on the skin can reliably measure carbon dioxide levels in people who need VA-ECMO, a kind of temporary heart-lung support. It aims to help doctors monitor breathing and circulation more accurately while you’re on this support.
ViennaAges 18–90 - NCT04499326Recruiting
Improve quality-of-life reporting after defibrillator heart ablation
This study looks at how to better track patients’ quality of life (how you feel and function) after catheter ablation for a dangerous heart rhythm, using questionnaires you complete. It may help the care team understand how to measure patient outcomes more accurately after treatment.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT04547673Recruiting
Test an endoscopy camera tool to help diagnose throat cancer
This study checks an “intelligent” camera used during a nose-and-throat exam to improve how nasopharyngeal cancer is diagnosed. If you are eligible, your care team will compare how well the tool identifies the condition.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for validation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 593 recruiting validation 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 validation 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 validation 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.
