Recruiting studies
- NCT07516067Recruiting
Spinal Cord Stimulation to Help Children With Cerebral Palsy Move Better

Sensory therapy versus physical therapy for children with athetoid cerebral palsy
This study compares two types of therapy—sensory integration therapy (which uses activities to help the brain process movement and touch) and conventional physical therapy—to see which better improves movement and motor skills in children with athetoid cerebral palsy (a type of cerebral palsy affecting smooth, controlled movement).
Mansehra, KPKAges 6–12 - NCT07612371Recruiting
Brain Training for Cerebral Palsy Motor Skills
This study tests whether imagining movements and watching others move can help children with cerebral palsy (a condition affecting one side of the body) improve their motor function and everyday abilities. Researchers want to see if these mental and visual techniques work better than standard care.
IstanbulAges 7–16 - NCT07626424Recruiting
Vibration therapy for drooling in children with cerebral palsy

Stretch therapy for leg stiffness in kids with CP
This trial tests if a fast, gentle stretching technique can reduce leg stiffness and improve walking in children with cerebral palsy (CP). It may be an option for children who are already planning to receive Botox injections for tight calf muscles.
Kayseri, TurkeyAges 2–8 - NCT07000578Enrolling by invitation
Hip brace and exercise for kids with cerebral palsy
This trial tests whether a special hip brace plus exercise helps improve walking, balance, and reduce muscle tightness in children with cerebral palsy. It's designed for children who can walk a bit but may have trouble with hip stiffness.
Istanbul, BeykozAges 4–16 - NCT06753812Enrolling by invitation
Lower limb therapy for children with unilateral cerebral palsy
This trial tests a therapy called constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) for the legs in children with unilateral cerebral palsy. It aims to improve leg function by encouraging use of the affected leg through structured exercises and activities.
BoluAges 5–15 - NCT06696989Enrolling by invitation
Balance and core exercises for children with cerebral palsy
This study compares two types of exercises—Frenkel's exercises and core stability exercises—to see which helps children with ataxic cerebral palsy improve their balance and movement. The goal is to find the best way to help your child stand, sit, and move more safely.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 6–12 - NCT06448065Enrolling by invitation
Reliability of gait classification in children with cerebral palsy
This study looks at how reliable (consistent) the way doctors classify walking patterns in children with spastic cerebral palsy is. It only uses existing walking data already collected at the Karolinska Hospital, so no new visits or tests are needed.
StockholmAges 3–18 - NCT06377085Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Testing an old drug for tight muscles in kids with cerebral palsy
This trial tests a drug called 5-Azacytidine, which is being used in a new way—to help loosen tight muscles (contractures) in children with cerebral palsy. It aims to see if it can reduce the need for surgery.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 2–18 - NCT06347432Enrolling by invitation
Study to help kids with severe cerebral palsy gain independence
This trial tests a power wheelchair training system for children with severe cerebral palsy who cannot walk or use a manual wheelchair. It aims to help them move more independently using switches or a joystick.
Grand Rapids, MichiganAges 5–17 - NCT03413566Enrolling by invitation
Studying health issues in children with cerebral palsy
This study is looking at how common different health problems are in children with cerebral palsy, and which problems often happen together. It may help clinicians plan better care by understanding the most frequent additional needs.
Ages 5–18 - NCT07291128Recruiting
VOJTA therapy for children with ataxic cerebral palsy
This trial tests a special movement therapy called VOJTA technique to help improve balance and coordination in children with ataxic cerebral palsy. It may offer a gentle way to help your child move better.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 2–6 - NCT07367477Enrolling by invitation
Horizontal vs. vertical arm exercises for children with cerebral palsy
This study compares two types of arm and hand exercises (horizontal vs. vertical movements) for children with bilateral spastic cerebral palsy. It aims to see which type helps improve upper body function the most.
CairoAges 5–8 - NCT06040619Recruiting
Therapy Together for children with cerebral palsy
This trial tests a therapy program called Therapy Together for children at risk for or diagnosed with cerebral palsy who have trouble using one hand. It aims to help them use their affected hand and arm more effectively.
Frisco, TexasAges 3 months–5.9 years - NCT06584851Recruiting
3D muscle study in children with cerebral palsy
This study uses a special 3D microscope to look at muscle structure in children with cerebral palsy. It aims to understand muscle stiffness by comparing tiny muscle samples taken during a scheduled procedure that already requires general anesthesia.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges 2–9 - NCT06686719Recruiting
Stretching and relaxation for kids with spastic cerebral palsy
This trial compares three gentle stretching and muscle relaxation techniques to see which one best helps children with spastic cerebral palsy move more easily and feel less stiff. The goal is to find a safe, non-invasive way to improve daily function.
RawalpindiAges 8–18 - NCT06450158Recruiting
Robot-assisted training for children with cerebral palsy
This trial tests if robot-assisted training helps improve motor skills in children with cerebral palsy who can walk without major aids. It compares them to children without brain injuries.
Fort Worth, TexasAges 6–18 - NCT06036199Recruiting
Focused ultrasound for movement problems in cerebral palsy
This trial tests if focused ultrasound can help reduce uncontrolled movements in children and young adults with cerebral palsy caused by a lack of oxygen at birth. It may offer an option for those whose current medications aren't working well enough.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 8–22 - NCT06585618Recruiting
