- NCT03980275Recruiting
Nerve-sparing surgery for both vocal cords that won’t move
This trial studies a surgical technique to improve breathing and voice in people whose both vocal cords do not move. It’s meant for cases that have not improved on their own for at least 6 months, and it may help restore better movement and function.
New York, New YorkAges 18–70 - NCT06406725Recruiting
Detecting vocal cord issues with noninvasive breathing test
This study tests whether a noninvasive breathing support device can detect vocal cord movement problems in children who had heart or airway surgery. It may avoid the need for a scope test.
Queens, New YorkAges 1 day–18 years - NCT07579364Enrolling by invitation
Voice Outcomes After Vocal Cord Surgery
This study follows people who have had surgery to improve one-sided vocal cord paralysis or atrophy—a condition where one vocal cord doesn't move properly or has shrunk. Researchers track how well your voice works and your quality of life over 2 years after surgery.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05193240Recruiting
Swallowing test to predict vocal cord paralysis after lung surgery
This study checks whether a simple swallowing test can forecast vocal cord paralysis after lung surgery, compared with a camera exam of the throat. If predictions are accurate, it may help doctors prevent or plan treatment for swallowing and voice problems.
RouenAges 18 years+ - NCT05119842Recruiting
Implant study for permanent voice weakness from vocal cord closure
This study tests a voice implant device in people with permanent vocal cord weakness (UVFP) who have trouble closing their vocal cords. It aims to improve voice strength and reduce voice-related burden, while checking safety over the study period.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for vocal cord paralysis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 5 recruiting vocal cord paralysis 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 vocal cord paralysis 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 vocal cord paralysis 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.
