Recruiting studies
- NCT07153614Recruiting
Pain management after cancer surgery to start chemo sooner
This trial compares different methods of managing pain after cancer surgery to see which helps patients start chemotherapy sooner. It focuses on people having open abdominal surgery for certain cancers who are scheduled for chemotherapy afterward.
Knoxville, TennesseeAges 18–80 - NCT07203742Recruiting
Mandala drawing for anxiety before spinal chemo in kids with leukemia
This study tests whether drawing mandalas (circular patterns) can help children aged 4 to 12 with leukemia feel less anxious and scared before a spinal tap that delivers chemotherapy. It may offer a calming, non-drug way to cope with a stressful procedure.
IzmirAges 4–12 - NCT07290062RecruitingPhase 1
Gene therapy injection for ALS safety study
This trial tests a single injection of a gene therapy called INS1202 into the spinal fluid. It is for people with ALS, including those with a specific genetic form (SOD1 mutation). The goal is to see if it is safe and how it affects the body.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18–79 - NCT00804154RecruitingPhase 1
Capsaicin-like drug for severe cancer pain
This Phase 1 trial tests a new drug related to capsaicin (resiniferatoxin) to reduce severe nerve pain from advanced cancer. It is given through a small catheter near the spinal fluid space and is meant for people whose pain medicines and other options have not worked well enough.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT02254863RecruitingPhase 1
Stem cell transplant into the spinal fluid for rare brain diseases
This Phase 1 trial tests a transplant using special donated stem-cell–like cells placed into the spinal fluid to treat certain inherited brain diseases. It is mainly designed to check safety, and it may offer benefit by targeting brain and nerve damage.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 1 week–22 years - NCT03571321RecruitingPhase 1
Ruxolitinib plus chemotherapy for Ph-like B-ALL
This early-phase study tests whether adding ruxolitinib (a targeted medicine) to standard chemotherapy improves outcomes in adolescents and young adults with newly diagnosed Ph-like B-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It targets specific genetic features (“JAK-targetable signature”) thought to make the leukemia more responsive to JAK-blocking treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–39 - NCT07537062Recruiting
Virtual Reality to Reduce Anxiety During Cancer Chemotherapy in Children
This study tests whether wearing virtual reality headsets can help reduce anxiety and fear in children with cancer who need a spinal injection of chemotherapy (a needle procedure into the spine). The goal is to see if this distraction tool makes the experience less stressful for kids and their families.
KayseriAges 4–10 - NCT06896110Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Spinal chemo and immunotherapy for recurrent high-grade glioma
This trial tests a combination of two drugs—azacitidine and nivolumab—given directly into the spinal fluid for people whose high-grade glioma has come back after initial treatment. The goal is to see if this approach can safely target the tumor and slow its growth.
Iowa City, IowaAges 13 years+
Common questions
- Are there clinical trials studying Intrathecal?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 104 recruiting studies that include Intrathecal, 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 Intrathecal 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 Intrathecal 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 Intrathecal or a specific trial is right for you.
