Recovery quality after heart valve replacement with different sedation
This study compares how well patients recover after a minimally invasive heart valve procedure (TAVR) when given different types of sedation. The goal is to find which sedation approach helps patients feel better and recover faster after the procedure.
Glenview, IllinoisAges 18–90 - NCT07557576Recruiting
Pain management approaches for children having cleft surgery
This study compares two types of anesthesia (with and without opioid painkillers) for children undergoing cleft lip or palate surgery. The goal is to see which approach better controls pain after surgery and reduces agitation as the child wakes up.
ZagrebAges 3 months–7 years - NCT07219082Recruiting

This study is testing a program called BSAFE that teaches people who use stimulants like cocaine or methamphetamine how to stay safer around fentanyl. It aims to prevent accidental fentanyl exposure and its harms.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07051109Recruiting
Dual-chamber pain pump for recovery after weight-loss surgery

Seongnam-si, Gyunggi-doAges 19–65 - NCT06995885Enrolling by invitation
A study to improve tracking of opioid use in the fentanyl era
This study aims to develop a better tool for recalling and tracking opioid use patterns, especially with fentanyl. It may help people who use opioids outside of medical settings to more accurately report their use.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT06832046Recruiting
Intranasal fentanyl for pain in pediatric emergencies
This study looks back at children who already received fentanyl nasal spray for pain in the emergency department. It aims to see how well this method worked for treating sudden pain in children.
StrasbourgAges 1–17 - NCT06823349RecruitingPhase 4
Pain relief study for normal labor
This trial compares a single injection of pain medicine into the spinal fluid to other methods during normal labor. It aims to see how well it works for women in active labor with a single, full-term baby in head-down position.
AswānAges Any age - NCT06785987Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Lidocaine Drip During Thyroid Surgery with Nerve Monitoring
This study tests whether giving a continuous lidocaine drip during open thyroid surgery can improve pain control and recovery. Lidocaine is a numbing medicine, and researchers want to see if it helps without interfering with the nerve monitor used during surgery.
Kaohsiung, TaiwanAges 20–75 - NCT06636578RecruitingPhase 4
Adding dexmedetomidine to pain block for heart surgery
This study tests adding a medicine called dexmedetomidine to a standard pain-blocking injection (ropivacaine) used during heart surgery. The goal is to see if it reduces pain and speeds recovery better than the injection alone.
Al FayyumAges 20–65 - NCT06379984RecruitingPhase 2
Quick-start buprenorphine for opioid addiction with fentanyl use
This trial tests a way to quickly start buprenorphine (a medication for opioid addiction) in an outpatient clinic for people who use fentanyl. It aims to make starting treatment easier and faster, without needing to go through full withdrawal first.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06206044Enrolling by invitation
Evaluating typical spinal blocks for cesarean delivery
This study looks at how well the standard spinal block works for cesarean sections. It aims to understand the typical effects to improve care for patients having a C-section.
Portland, OregonAges 15–55 - NCT06203405Recruiting
Sedation guided by breathing effort in ICU patients
This trial tests a new way to manage sedation (medication to keep you calm and comfortable) for people on a breathing machine. The goal is to see if adjusting sedation based on your breathing effort leads to better outcomes and shorter time on the machine.
Bangkok, BangkokAges 18 years+ - NCT06104059Recruiting
Pain management during planned laparoscopic surgery
This trial tests a new way to monitor pain during laparoscopic surgery. It may help your doctor adjust pain medicines to keep you comfortable.
Athens, AtticaAges 18–70 - NCT05985850RecruitingPhase 2
Can cannabis help with opioid addiction treatment?
This trial tests if adding a specific cannabis product to standard methadone treatment helps people with opioid use disorder. It's for adults over 25 who recently started methadone and have used cannabis before.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 25 years+ - NCT05856136RecruitingPhase 4
Study how opioid exposure affects diaphragm muscle function
This study looks at whether receiving opioids for pain during lower-leg surgery changes how well the diaphragm muscle (the main breathing muscle) works afterward. It compares breathing muscle function in people who do and do not have certain lung conditions.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05609877Recruiting
Testing LISA breathing treatment for very preterm newborns
This trial is studying whether giving a lung “surfactant” medicine through a thin tube (called LISA) helps very premature babies with breathing problems. It aims to see if this approach improves care for babies born around 24 to 30 weeks gestation who still need oxygen support.
AalborgAges 6 months–7 months - NCT05437575RecruitingPhase 3

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials studying Fentanyl?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 57 recruiting studies that include Fentanyl, drawn from the U.S. registry and rewritten for real people so you can see what each is testing and who it's for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a Fentanyl trial?
- Each study lists its own eligibility criteria — rules about condition, age, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Is Fentanyl an approved treatment?
- A drug being studied in a trial may be investigational (still being tested) or already approved and being studied for a new use. Each study page explains what phase it's in. Clin2 does not provide medical advice — talk with your doctor about whether Fentanyl or a specific trial is right for you.
