Search ClinicalTrials.gov by condition, then apply the recruitment status filter to narrow the results to trials in the status you need. ClinicalTrials.gov lets users search registered studies and filter records by condition, intervention, location, status, study type, dates, and other study fields.
- Enter the condition in the condition search field and run the search. The result is the full set of registered studies matching that condition.
- Apply the recruitment status filter and select the status you need, such as recruiting. The result is the subset of condition matches currently in that status.
- Narrow further with intervention, location, study type, or date filters if your question requires it. Each filter reduces the set to records matching all selected criteria.
- Open each remaining record and read its structured registration fields, which cover identification, status, design, eligibility, and locations, to confirm the trial fits your question.
Use the status field inside each record to confirm the filter result, since the structured registration fields include study status alongside design, eligibility, and locations. If you need records beyond one registry, the WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform Search Portal provides a single access point for records supplied by participating clinical-trial registries.
