Recruiting studies
- NCT06474832Recruiting
High-Intensity Interval Training for Chronic Stroke
This trial tests whether high-intensity interval training (short bursts of intense exercise mixed with rest) can help people who had a stroke more than 6 months ago improve their walking and overall fitness. It may be a good fit if you can already walk a bit and do not have unstable heart or lung problems.

Electrical stimulation therapy for brain and arm recovery after stroke
This trial tests whether painless electrical nerve stimulation placed on the skin can improve thinking (cognitive function) and arm movement in people living with long-term stroke. If you qualify, you may receive this non-drug therapy and be assessed for changes in memory/thinking and upper-limb movement.
Hong KongAges 50–80 - NCT04957355Recruiting
NMES therapy to improve balance and reduce falls after stroke
This trial tests whether NMES (a small electrical stimulation you feel on the skin) can improve balance and lower fall risk in people with stroke-related weakness. It may help you walk more steadily and safely, while the study measures balance and fall-related outcomes.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–90 - NCT06746415Recruiting
Robot-assisted walking training for chronic stroke
This study tests whether robot-assisted walking training helps people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago. It aims to improve walking ability and leg movement for those still having some walking difficulty.
Istanbul, ZeytinburnuAges 40–75 - NCT07139002Recruiting
Sensory training with Bobath therapy for chronic stroke
This study tests whether combining sensory training with Bobath therapy (a type of physical therapy) helps people with chronic stroke improve their balance and movement. If you've had a stroke between 6 months and 2 years ago and struggle with balance, this trial may offer a way to enhance your recovery.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 45–60 - NCT07378774Recruiting
Arm therapy for chronic stroke recovery
This study tests two types of arm movement therapy—constraint-induced and bilateral training—to see if they help people who have had a stroke and still have some arm weakness. It is for adults who are in the chronic stage (at least 6 months after stroke) and have normal memory and thinking skills.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–65 - NCT07468110Recruiting
Nutrition and balance in chronic stroke survivors
This study looks at how a simple blood test (the CONUT score, which measures nutrition and immune health) relates to balance and daily function in people who have had a stroke a long time ago. It may help find ways to improve recovery and quality of life.
Istanbul, PendikAges 18–85 - NCT05872191Enrolling by invitation
Spanish-language tests for arm function after stroke
This study checks whether two hand/arm assessment questionnaires and tests work well in Spanish for people living with stroke-related arm weakness. It mainly involves you doing standardized assessments if you’re eligible.
Valencia, ValenciaAges 18–80 - NCT07631169Recruiting
Action Observation Therapy for Stroke Hand Recovery
This study tests whether watching and practicing hand movements (with one or both hands) can help improve hand function and grip strength in people who had a stroke on the left side of their brain. The therapy uses observation and practice to retrain the brain and hand after stroke.
Karabük, MerkezAges 18 years+ - NCT05849532Recruiting
Home electrical exercise for walking after stroke
This trial tests a home-based program using electrical stimulation to help people with long-term stroke improve walking and leg movement. If you qualify, you may use the device and a smartphone app at home with guidance from the study team.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–90 - NCT06696885Recruiting
Mobile App for Exercise Adherence and Hand Function in Chronic Stroke
This study tests whether using a mobile app can help stroke survivors stick with their exercise routine and improve hand function. It is for people who have had a stroke 6 months to 2 years ago and have some residual hand weakness but no severe stiffness or communication problems.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 35–75 - NCT06690073Recruiting
Motor relearning program for stroke recovery
This trial tests a motor relearning program to help people who had a stroke more than six months ago improve their ability to move and walk. It focuses on retraining the brain and body to work together for everyday activities.
Riyadh, Riyadh RegionAges 45–65 - NCT06765642Recruiting
Brain stimulation for hand strength after stroke
This study tests whether a safe, non-invasive brain stimulation technique (called rTMS) can improve hand strength and movement in people who have had a stroke at least 3 months ago. The treatment is delivered through a coil placed on the scalp and does not require surgery.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 21 years+ - NCT07039305Recruiting
Building physical strength after stroke
This study looks at whether a specific exercise program can help people with chronic stroke (more than 6 months ago) who still have some weakness in their leg. It aims to improve walking and overall physical ability.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18–80 - NCT07073248Recruiting
Brain stimulation for arm recovery after stroke
This trial uses a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called iTBS to see if it can improve arm and hand movement in people who have had a stroke more than 6 months ago. It might help you regain some function in your weaker arm.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT07073235Recruiting
Brain stimulation to help leg movement after chronic stroke
This trial is testing if a non-invasive brain stimulation technique, called iTBS, can improve leg movement in people who have had a stroke more than six months ago and still have some weakness on one side.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT07095920Recruiting
Brain stimulation for arm recovery after stroke
This trial tests a brain stimulation device (Brain Q) to help improve arm and hand movement in people who had a stroke 6 months to 5 years ago. The goal is to see if it can boost recovery beyond standard therapy.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18–80 - NCT07631078Recruiting
Brain Stimulation to Improve Arm Movement After Stroke
This pilot study tests whether a combination of brain stimulation (TMS) and physical therapy can help improve arm and hand function in people who had a stroke at least one year ago. The goal is to see if this approach helps patients regain better control and strength in their affected arm.
Berkeley, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT07754747Recruiting
Balance training after stroke
This trial compares two types of balance exercises to see which one better improves balance, posture, and reduces the risk of falling in people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago.
RawalpindiAges 40–70 - NCT07587463Recruiting
Swiss Ball vs. Movement Training for Stroke Balance Recovery
This study compares two exercise approaches—using a Swiss ball and movement-based training—to help stroke survivors improve their balance and ability to move around safely. You'll do exercises at a medical center to see which method works better for restoring everyday movement skills.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 45–65 - NCT07720609Recruiting
Home versus clinic therapy for arm function after stroke
This trial compares video-based therapy at home to in-clinic therapy for improving arm and hand movement in people who have had a stroke more than six months ago. It may help you regain function in your affected arm.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 35–75 - NCT05724823Recruiting
Online seated exercise program for people after stroke
This study tests a virtual (online) exercise program done mostly while seated to help people with long-term stroke challenges move more easily and safely. You may be eligible if you can use a walking aid, can stand up from a chair, and can do about 60 minutes of exercise while using a computer or tablet.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06758505Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chronic stroke?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 124 recruiting chronic stroke 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 chronic stroke 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 chronic stroke 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.
