Guadalajara, JaliscoAges 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 - 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.

Dexmedetomidine vs. midazolam-fentanyl for sedation
This trial compares two sedation and pain relief medicine combinations (dexmedetomidine vs. midazolam-fentanyl) to see which works better for people having planned heart valve surgery.
CairoAges 21–50 - NCT07629323Enrolling by invitation
Spinal Pain Relief During Hiatal Hernia Surgery

Port SaidAges 8–18 - NCT03936790Enrolling by invitation
Testing ropivacaine dose for C-section in taller adults
This trial studies how different doses of ropivacaine (a numbing medicine given into the spine) affect comfort and safety during an elective C-section in taller, otherwise healthy adults. It may help anesthesiologists choose the right dose for this specific body-size group.
Athens, AtticaAges 20–40 - NCT07105618Recruiting
IV-only anesthesia for brain tumor surgery
This study tests a type of anesthesia given only through an IV (total intravenous anesthesia) for people having brain tumor surgery. It looks at how well it works and how safe it is compared to other methods.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials studying Fentanyl?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 61 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.
