Recruiting studies
- NCT07381907Recruiting
Brain stimulation combined with Nordic walking for Parkinson's
This study combines a mild electrical brain stimulation (tDCS) with Nordic walking (walking with poles) to see if it helps improve walking and balance in people with Parkinson's disease. The treatment lasts 4 weeks and may be an option if you have a slow walking pace and no implanted brain devices.

AI gait analysis for shoe sole adjustments
This study uses a 2D video and AI to analyze how you walk. The goal is to adjust your shoe soles to help with discomfort in your legs or feet.
TaichungAges 20–70 - NCT07289191Recruiting
Spinal current stimulation for walking after spinal cord injury
This trial tests whether a new type of electrical stimulation on the back can help improve walking in people with incomplete spinal cord injury. It uses a device that sends small currents through the skin to the spinal cord.
Badalona, BarcelonaAges 18–75 - NCT05187650Recruiting
Powered exoskeleton plus electrical stimulation for incomplete spinal cord injury
This trial tests whether a powered walking exoskeleton together with electrical muscle stimulation (FES) can improve walking and movement in people with long-term, incomplete spinal cord injury. It may help you stand and walk more safely and effectively than standard care alone.
Nottwil, Canton of LucerneAges 18 years+ - NCT05887440Recruiting
Isokinetic strength training for knee control after stroke
This trial studies whether a special strength-training program that uses an “isokinetic” machine can improve walking and knee control in people after stroke. It is for people who have noticeable knee movement during walking and can safely take part in rehab.
RennesAges 18–75 - NCT05893186RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing DBS settings for walking and balance in Parkinson’s
This early-phase study looks at whether adjusting deep brain stimulation (DBS) can improve posture, walking, and balance in people with Parkinson’s disease. If you already have DBS in place, the trial uses computer-based planning to try different DBS directions and settings to see what helps you most.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18–89 - NCT06593184Recruiting
Magnetic stimulation for mobility after stroke
This trial tests a non-invasive treatment called trans-spinal magnetic stimulation to help improve walking and movement in people who have had a stroke. It is for those with trouble walking and are at least 6 months past their stroke.
João Pessoa, ParaíbaAges 18–75 - NCT06645054Recruiting
Testing a smart hallway system in clinics
This trial tests a smart hallway system that may help monitor walking. It is for people who can walk a short distance on their own, have no major memory or thinking problems, and speak Slovenian.
LjubljanaAges 18 years+ - NCT06868160Recruiting
Brain stimulation to improve walking in Parkinson's disease
This study tests whether different types of gentle electrical stimulation on the scalp can help improve walking and balance problems in people with Parkinson's disease. The goal is to find a better way to support rehabilitation.
MilanAges 45–85 - NCT06906276Recruiting
Brain activity during walking in atypical Parkinson's
This study looks at brain activity while walking in people with atypical Parkinsonian syndromes like PSP or MSA. It may help understand how these conditions affect walking and balance.
Solna, SolnaAges Any age - NCT06959277Recruiting
Walkasins study for balance with peripheral neuropathy
This trial tests if a wearable device called Walkasins can improve balance and walking in people with peripheral neuropathy. It may help if you have trouble with balance and your foot size fits the device.
Mesa, ArizonaAges 55 years+ - NCT07073287RecruitingPhase 2
Cerebellar-spinal brain stimulation for chronic stroke mobility
This trial tests whether a gentle electrical current applied to the back of the head and spine can improve walking and movement for people who have had a stroke more than six months ago.
João Pessoa, ParaíbaAges 18–75 - NCT07118228Recruiting
Ultrasound study of muscle in children with spastic cerebral palsy
This study uses ultrasound to look at muscle shape and function in children with spastic cerebral palsy. It aims to see how these muscle features relate to movement abilities, which could help guide future treatments.
KocaeliAges 4–18 - NCT07461259Recruiting
Testing a new exoskeleton for walking after spinal cord injury
This trial tests a powered exoskeleton called TWIICE Rise to see if it is safe and possible for people with spinal cord injury to use it for walking. It may help if you have some movement or no movement in your legs but need help standing and walking with crutches.
Nottwil, Canton of LucerneAges 18–70 - NCT07488026Recruiting
Brain stimulation for mobility in Parkinson's disease
This trial tests if a type of brain stimulation (transcranial magnetic stimulation) applied to different areas of the brain can improve walking and movement in people with Parkinson's disease. The goal is to see which stimulation site works best for reducing freezing of gait and improving daily mobility.
Recife, PernambucoAges 40 years+ - NCT07323147Enrolling by invitation
Robot-assisted walking therapy for hip fracture recovery
This study tests whether a robot suit can help older adults walk better after hip fracture surgery. If you are 65 or older and had surgery for a broken hip from a minor fall, you may be able to join.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 65–100 - NCT07264166Enrolling by invitation
Gene therapy trial for cerebral palsy and HIE
This trial tests a gene therapy given as a nose spray for people with cerebral palsy or HIE. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and helps improve movement over two years.
Monterrey, Nuevo LeónAges 2–65 - NCT06837038Enrolling by invitation
Rhythmic beats to improve walking after stroke or Parkinson's
This trial tests whether listening to rhythmic music while walking can improve gait problems caused by stroke, Parkinson's disease, or other parkinsonism conditions. It is designed for people who can walk on their own but have an uneven or slow pace.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 50–80 - NCT06688578Recruiting
Can a device that makes small noises improve balance and walking?
This study tests whether a device that plays small, random sounds (called stochastic noise) can help people feel steadier and walk better. It is for healthy adults of two age groups — those 60 and older, and those 21–59.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 21 years+ - NCT06617884Recruiting
Home balance training for movement disorders
This study tests a home-based walking and balance training program for people with cerebellar ataxia or Parkinson's disease. The training is done at home, so you don't need to travel. The goal is to see if this simple exercise program can improve your walking and balance.
Düsseldorf, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18–75 - NCT04720365Recruiting
Home video game rehab to help Parkinson’s walking and balance
This trial tests whether a serious (therapeutic) home video-game program can improve walking and balance problems for people with Parkinson’s disease who still have trouble even with levodopa. It also looks at whether the approach is worth it in real-world care (cost and benefits).
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT04467437Recruiting
Noninvasive brain and nerve stimulation with walking therapy
This study tests whether a noninvasive electrical stimulation applied to the outside of the body, paired with physical therapy, can improve movement and walking for people with neurologic conditions. You may be asked to complete regular therapy sessions and simple movement tasks while the team measures your progress.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for gait disorders?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 61 recruiting gait disorders 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 gait disorders 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 gait disorders 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.
