Medical device clinical trials, linked to regulatory records
ClinicalTrials.gov is the US National Library of Medicine's register of clinical studies. MedTech Signal holds every registered study that tests a device and links sponsors to the companies in our FDA, Health Canada, EU and UK records.
What registration shows
A registered study tells you a trial was planned or run: its sponsor, the conditions and devices studied, its phase, status and dates. Many device trials must be registered, but not all — early feasibility studies and some trials outside the US may not appear.
What it does not show
Registration is not evidence that a device works or is safe, and results are not imported. No registered trials never means no clinical evidence — we show 'No registered trials found', nothing stronger. Always read the study record itself.
What MedTech Signal shows
Search by sponsor, condition or device name, filter by status and phase, and see a 'Registered device trials' panel on company pages. Sponsor links to our company records use the same cleaned-name rules as the rest of the platform and are shown as possible matches.
Who uses this
Clinical evidence and regulatory teams planning a clinical evaluation, investors and due-diligence teams assessing a pipeline, and competitive-intelligence teams tracking which companies are running trials in a device area.
Held: every ClinicalTrials.gov study with a device intervention (about 76,000), refreshed daily with changed studies. Not held: results, outcome data, EU CTIS trials. Source: clinicaltrials.gov API v2.
