Recruiting studies
- NCT06320496Recruiting
Can a physical activity recovery stay help your child?
This study is for children age 8 to 18 who have a long-term health condition (like a chronic illness, rare disease, or disability) and are in a program to help them start being active again. The trial will check if a special exercise recovery stay helps them get stronger and feel better.
NancyAges 8–18 - NCT06330922Recruiting
Muscle and tendon health study in cerebral palsy
This study looks at muscle and tendon health in people with spastic cerebral palsy who are mildly to severely affected. It involves using a special running frame to see how it affects the body.
GrazAges 14–30 - NCT06137625Recruiting
Rhythm and dance learning in children with motor disorders
This study looks at how rhythm affects learning dance moves in children ages 8 to 16, both those with motor disorders (like cerebral palsy or developmental coordination disorder) and those without. It may help understand how to make movement therapy more effective.
ToulouseAges 8–16 - NCT05726591Recruiting
Robotic exoskeleton study to improve walking in children
This study looks at how safely using a pediatric robotic exoskeleton over the long term can improve how children walk. It’s for children ages 3–17 who have certain movement or spine-related conditions and who can meet walking and joint-movement requirements.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–17 - NCT06044168Recruiting
Nutritional supplement for muscle growth in cerebral palsy
This study tests whether a nutritional supplement can help build muscle in children with spastic cerebral palsy. It may be a good fit if you have trouble with walking and have not had certain treatments recently.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges 4–10 - NCT05901259Recruiting
Tracking routine outcomes using a mobility suit database
This trial sets up a database to follow routine health and mobility outcomes over time. You may be included if you have certain neurological conditions and can safely use the EXOPULSE suit.
Bergshamra, Stockholm CountyAges 2 years+ - NCT05849285Recruiting
Testing a program to support adults with lifelong care needs
This study tests a “Transitional and Lifelong Care” program for adults who had a disability since childhood, and includes their main caregiver or support person. It aims to see how this type of care support may improve experiences and support over time.
London, OntarioAges 21 years+ - NCT05764681Recruiting
Study for long-term pain after surgery
This study is for people who have chronic post-surgical pain and have a planned surgery on a leg or the spine. The goal is to better understand this long-term pain and what may help manage it after surgery.
Wilmington, DelawareAges 5–17 - NCT05447299Enrolling by invitation
Muscle and spasticity testing using MRI modeling
This study uses an MRI scan and movement measurements to better understand muscle tightness (spasticity) in children with cerebral palsy. It may help researchers improve how spasticity is evaluated and modeled to support future treatments.
StockholmAges 5–18 - NCT05417399Recruiting
Walking focus and distraction in cerebral palsy
This study looks at how paying attention to walking or doing another task at the same time affects walking in children with cerebral palsy. It may help understand how to improve training and therapy.
Enschede, OverijsselAges 4–16 - NCT04789746Enrolling by invitation
Physical fitness program for children with mobility challenges
This study tests a physical fitness program designed for children who have mobility challenges due to conditions like cerebral palsy. The program aims to improve fitness and overall well-being in a safe and supportive environment.
Chicago Heights, IllinoisAges 6–18 - NCT04096430Recruiting
Goal-setting program for children in physical or occupational therapy
This trial tests a child-friendly goal-setting approach during pediatric rehabilitation (physical therapy and/or occupational therapy). It may help children and families plan realistic goals that make therapy more meaningful and effective.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 5–12 - NCT03325946Recruiting
Neuromotor research clinic for people with movement problems
This study is looking at people who have difficulties with movement or muscle control (neuromotor impairment). It may help researchers better understand these problems and improve future care.
Roanoke, VirginiaAges 3 months–18 years - NCT03915418Recruiting
Screening sleep problems in children with cerebral palsy
This trial checks a new way to find sleep problems in children with cerebral palsy using connected tools (like devices/apps). It mainly helps by making sleep screening easier and more accurate, so families can get the right next steps sooner.
AngersAges 6–15 - NCT02543424Recruiting
Testing movement and thinking in brain-injury and cerebral palsy
This study looks at how people’s arm/hand movement and attention-thinking skills work after brain injury or cerebral palsy. You might be invited to tasks and simple instructions to help researchers understand function and possible support strategies.
Ottignies, Brabant WallonAges 5 years+ - NCT02592291Recruiting
Using a phone app to help manage long-term health needs
This study tests a mobile phone system that helps people with long-term, complex health conditions manage daily life and get support. If you can use a smartphone and pass the study checks, you may be able to try the self-management tools.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 12 years+ - NCT00411060Recruiting
Orthopaedic data bank study for acute and chronic problems
This study collects information about orthopedic (bone, joint, muscle) problems from people seen in the orthopaedics clinic. It may help improve future care by organizing real-world clinical data.
Gainesville, FloridaAges Any age - NCT02978911Recruiting
MRI brain scan study for tumors needing skull-base surgery
This study looks at how MRI pictures can show the brain nerve pathways in adults with a skull-base tumor that needs surgery. The goal is to improve surgical planning and outcomes by better mapping what areas the surgery will affect.
BronAges 18 years+ - NCT02795052Recruiting
Stem cell treatment trial for nerve injury
This study tests whether bone-marrow stem cells can improve nerve function in people with nerve damage that usually doesn’t recover with current care. It also checks whether the treatment is safe and whether people can be followed over time with repeated nerve exams.
Westport, ConnecticutAges 18 years+

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cerebral palsy?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 235 recruiting cerebral palsy studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a cerebral palsy trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a cerebral palsy trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
