Clinicaltrials.gov [http://clinicaltrials.gov] "provides regularly updated information about federally and privately supported clinical research in human volunteers. ClinicalTrials.gov gives you information about a trial's purpose, who may participate, locations, and phone numbers for more details. "
One can search by disease, location, treatment, and sponsor.
The information about a certain location will also say if the study is still recruiting for volunteers.
Of course, if you search MedlinePlus (www.medlineplus.gov) by disease, there will be links to clinical trials regarding that disease.
It may be possible that ClinicalTrials.gov is updated more quickly ththan the individual disease/conditions pages in MedlinePlus. So it would be wise to check both MedlinePlus and ClinicalTrials.gov
I have found Centerwatch.org to be virtually worthless. It is not as complete as ClinicalTrials.
Hope this helps!

(Part of my duties as a medical librarian is to foward to our IRB [Insitutional Review Board] a monthly listing of all the doctors
at our medical college that are performing clinical trials...ClinicalTrials.gov has proven to be sufficient for our needs)

Pubmed sounds like an oxymoron.
