ALS clinical trials
Directory of U.S. ClinicalTrials.gov public records for ALS. Browse ALS recruiting trials, filter by phase, sponsor, location, or intervention, and open the official ClinicalTrials.gov study record for each result.
By Clinical Trials Finder Guidance last reviewed June 10, 2026 Data synced October 22, 2026 Report an issue
Data is sourced from official ClinicalTrials.gov public API records. Always review the official ClinicalTrials.gov record for the latest information.
These results were retrieved from the live ClinicalTrials.gov registry. Filters and sort order apply to this result list.
How ALS studies are organized in the registry
Listings appear under both the abbreviation ALS and the full name “amyotrophic lateral sclerosis,” and some related records use “motor neuron disease.” The total volume is modest, so browsing the unfiltered list is practical; expanded-access records also appear in this condition and are labeled as such in the study-type field.
These describe how studies tend to be titled and grouped on ClinicalTrials.gov — they are search vocabulary, not medical guidance.

About this ALS clinical trials directory page
- What this page lists
- U.S. ClinicalTrials.gov public records that list ALS as a study condition, including recruiting, not yet recruiting, and active not recruiting trials across phase 1, phase 2, and phase 3.
- How to narrow results
- Use the filters above to scope by intervention, sponsor, city, state, recruitment status, phase, study type, healthy volunteer eligibility, sex, age, or NCT ID within ALS.
- Where the data comes from
- Records are sourced from the official ClinicalTrials.gov public API. Each result links back to the official study page, which is the source of truth for eligibility, enrollment, and contact information.
- What this page does not do
- No medical advice, eligibility judgments, treatment recommendations, ranking of trials by quality, or AI-generated medical summaries.
