Recruiting studies
- NCT01840930Recruiting
Study of severe cerebral palsy in children

Extra hand-focused therapy for children with cerebral palsy
This trial tests an intensive therapy program that trains both hands together to improve hand use in children with cerebral palsy. It may help your child with everyday hand and arm skills, but it also requires meeting certain health, eye, and recent-treatment limits.
QuébecAges 6–17 - NCT05497609Recruiting
Study of tiny muscle changes in children with cerebral palsy
This study follows children with cerebral palsy (and sometimes acquired brain injury) to learn how the muscles look and change over time at a very small, microscopic level. The results may help researchers better understand what’s happening in the muscles and guide future treatments.
StockholmAges 2–18 - NCT05740605Recruiting
Testing an at-home therapy program for bilateral cerebral palsy
This trial tests an at-home intervention (called HABIT-ILE) for children with bilateral cerebral palsy, delivered over two weeks. It aims to see whether home-based therapy and assessments help children function better and whether families can follow the program.
BrusselsAges 5–18 - NCT05883969Recruiting
Family play program for infants at high risk for cerebral palsy
This trial tests an early, family-centered play-based intervention for infants who have a high risk of developing cerebral palsy. The goal is to help support early movement and development as soon as possible.
AalborgAges 3 months–1 year - NCT05921422Recruiting
Study of thinking skills in children with cerebral palsy
This study looks at how children’s and teens’ thinking and learning work in everyday school life. It may help researchers better understand strengths and challenges in cerebral palsy to improve support.
CopenhagenAges 11–15 - NCT04897347Recruiting
Robotic sitting and reaching training for children with cerebral palsy
This trial tests a robotic therapy that helps children with cerebral palsy practice sitting balance and reaching safely. It may improve how well your child can control posture and move during functional tasks.
New York, New YorkAges 6–17 - NCT07829796Recruiting
Brain stimulation and virtual reality for walking in children with cerebral palsy
This study tests a treatment that uses a gentle electrical current on the scalp (called transcranial direct current stimulation) along with virtual reality exercises to help improve walking and self-esteem in children with spastic cerebral palsy.
IslamabadAges 8–16 - NCT07829770Recruiting
Brain stimulation with virtual reality for balance in cerebral palsy
This study tests a new type of brain stimulation combined with virtual reality exercises to see if it can improve balance and thinking skills in children with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy. The treatment is non-invasive and aims to help with everyday movement and cognitive function.
IslamabadAges 8–16 - NCT06428032Recruiting
Habit training for children with bilateral cerebral palsy
This trial tests a therapy called HABIT-ILE to see if it helps children with bilateral cerebral palsy improve hand use and brain function. It may be a good fit if your child can follow instructions and has certain levels of hand and movement ability.
Santiago, Santiago MetropolitanAges 8–18 - NCT07806994Recruiting
Eye tracking and hand use in children with cerebral palsy
This study uses eye-tracking technology to see how children with cerebral palsy use their eyes and hands together during tasks that involve both hands. It may help improve understanding of motor control and guide future therapies.
Seoul, SeoulAges 6–12 - NCT06571929Recruiting
Augmented reality training for arm function in children with cerebral palsy
This study tests whether playing special augmented reality games (where virtual objects appear in the real world) can improve arm and hand function in children with spastic cerebral palsy. It compares game training to usual therapy.
São Carlos, São PauloAges 6–12 - NCT07747974Recruiting
Therapy for spastic cerebral palsy in children
This study compares two types of hand and arm therapy to help children with spastic cerebral palsy use their affected side better. Children will either practice with the affected hand through special exercises or use mirror therapy, which uses a mirror to create the illusion of movement.
IslamabadAges 5–9 - NCT07747961Recruiting
Virtual reality games for children with cerebral palsy
This trial tests whether playing virtual reality games, designed as part of a rehab program, can help improve movement and daily skills in children with a specific type of cerebral palsy (spastic diplegia). It may be a fun and engaging way to support physical therapy.
IslamabadAges 7–15 - NCT07730086Recruiting
Using smartphones to study walking in children with cerebral palsy
This trial uses a smartphone app to measure how children with cerebral palsy walk. It aims to see if phone sensors can help doctors better understand gait problems.
Minya, Menia GovernorateAges 6–12 - NCT06616610Recruiting
Testing a single-button system for children with cerebral palsy
This trial tests a new single-button system to see if it can help children with cerebral palsy react faster and press buttons more accurately. It is designed for children who cannot walk or drive a powered wheelchair.
Seville, AndalusiaAges 3–12 - NCT06637579Recruiting
Exercise Program for Walking in Children with Cerebral Palsy
This trial tests a special exercise program (Universal Exercise Unit) plus task-focused training for children with spastic cerebral palsy. It aims to help with walking, balance, and daily activities.
Sialkot, Punjab ProvinceAges 5–15 - NCT07715006Recruiting
Spinal nerve stimulation for children with cerebral palsy
This study adds a mild electrical stimulation to the spinal nerves during a planned SDR surgery for children with cerebral palsy, to see if it helps improve movement more than the surgery alone.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 3–14 - NCT07694804Recruiting
Physical therapy for arm and hand function in children with cerebral palsy
This study tests two types of physical therapy to help children with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy improve the use of their arms and hands. The treatments focus on stretching and coordination exercises, and they may help your child with daily activities.
Mansehra, KPKAges 6–12 - NCT07673289Recruiting
Hand dexterity therapy for children with cerebral palsy
This study compares two hand therapy techniques to see which one better improves hand coordination in children with cerebral palsy. The goal is to help children use their hands more easily in daily activities.
Lalian, Punjab ProvinceAges 8–13 - NCT06672328Recruiting
Can watching movements boost function in kids with CP?
This study tests whether watching and then practicing movements (action observation training) can improve everyday functional skills in children with spastic cerebral palsy. It could help children move better and more independently.
IslamabadAges 5–12 - NCT06658236Recruiting
Arm and breathing exercises for cerebral palsy
This study tests two types of exercises: one that uses guided arm and shoulder movements (called PNF) and another that focuses on deep breathing (chest expansion). The goal is to see if these exercises can help children with cerebral palsy move their arms better and breathe more easily.
