This study compares two different exercise-based therapies to see which one helps stroke survivors improve balance and walking better. It is for people who had a stroke more than 6 months ago and can walk a short distance with or without help.
IslamabadAges 25–65 - NCT06713265Recruiting
Parkinson's: freezing while walking and swallowing
This study looks at a possible link between two specific Parkinson's symptoms: freezing while walking and freezing of the throat muscles during swallowing. It aims to understand if people who have one type of freezing are more likely to have the other, which may guide future therapies.
Saint-Sébastien-de-MorsentAges 18 years+ - NCT06870045Recruiting
Walking ability test in children with JIA
This study looks at how well children with JIA (arthritis in one knee) can walk and balance, using a simple test called the Dynamic Gait Index. It aims to find a better way to measure walking problems in kids with JIA.
Istanbul, TurkeyAges 8–16 - NCT06939660Recruiting
Brain-spinal cord stimulation for walking after spinal cord injury
This trial tests if combining brain-computer interface technology with spinal cord stimulation can help improve walking in people with chronic spinal cord injury. It aims to see if this approach works when standard rehab has stopped helping.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 14–65 - NCT07037849Recruiting
Robot suit for leg rehab after stroke
This study is testing whether a wearable robotic leg device can help stroke survivors improve their walking and leg function during rehabilitation. If you have had a stroke and can already stand and walk a little, this robot suit may help you regain more strength and mobility.
Shenzhen, GuangzhouAges 18–75 - NCT07040215Recruiting
Robot-assisted walking training after stroke
This study tests whether a robot-assisted walking training program can help people who recently had a stroke improve their walking ability. It is for people in the early recovery phase (1 to 3 months after stroke) who already have moderate balance.
Changhua, TaiwanAges 45–70 - NCT07316296RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a drug to reduce freezing of gait in Parkinson's
This trial tests whether atomoxetine, a drug that boosts a brain chemical called noradrenaline, can help reduce freezing of gait—a feeling of your feet being stuck to the ground—in people with Parkinson's disease. You would continue your usual Parkinson's medications during the study and undergo walking tests and brain scans to see if the drug helps.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges 18 years+ - NCT07399262Recruiting
Music-based walking training for multiple sclerosis
This study tests whether walking to a steady beat of music can help improve your walking and balance. It is for people with mild to moderate multiple sclerosis who can walk but may need a little support.
Istanbul, ZeytinburnuAges 18–65 - NCT07471919Recruiting
Robot vs. visual feedback balance training after stroke
This study compares two types of therapy—robot-assisted walking training and balance training using visual feedback—to see which helps improve walking and balance after a stroke. You may join if you had an ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke, can walk with some help, and have no major communication or vision problems.
BoluAges 21–85 - NCT07502885Recruiting
Study of walking in children with bone or soft tissue tumors
This study looks at how children with certain bone or soft tissue tumors walk after orthopedic surgery. It aims to understand and improve their movement and recovery.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 5–20 - NCT07529054Recruiting
Robot-Assisted Walking Training After Stroke
This trial tests whether a robotic device that helps guide your walking can improve mobility and function after a stroke. If you've had a stroke at least 3 months ago and have some difficulty walking, this training might help you regain strength and independence.
Gröbming, StyriaAges 18–80 - NCT07578753Enrolling by invitation
Robot-assisted walking therapy for burn and fracture recovery
This study tests whether a robotic device that helps you walk can improve movement and function after you've had a severe burn and broken bone in your leg. The robot guides your leg through walking motions while you're healing, and researchers want to see if it helps you regain strength and independence faster.
SeoulAges 18–70 - NCT07213232Enrolling by invitation
Balance and thinking training for Parkinson's
This study tests if combining balance and walking exercises with thinking tasks can improve movement and daily life in people with Parkinson's disease. It is for those in early to moderate stages who can participate in physical and cognitive training.
Ankara, ÜniversitelerAges 40 years+ - NCT07137403Enrolling by invitation
Treating unsteady gait in older people
This trial studies older adults with unsteady walking, which may be a sign of a treatable brain condition. It aims to understand the condition and find ways to reduce fall risk and improve health.
UmeåAges 65 years+ - NCT07093229Enrolling by invitation
Gait analysis for knee arthritis in seniors
This trial studies how walking patterns change in people over 65 with long-term knee osteoarthritis. It aims to understand gait to improve treatment and rehabilitation plans.
CraiovaAges 65–80 - NCT06400186Recruiting

This study tests if using a virtual reality headset can help people who are already using a Vector walking system in the hospital. The virtual reality shows goals to aim for while walking, which may make rehab more engaging and effective.
Schenectady, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06304077Recruiting
VR walking therapy for older adults in rehab
This trial tests whether virtual reality can make walking therapy more engaging and effective for older adults in a hospital rehab program. It is for German-speaking inpatients over 65 who can walk at least 30 meters with or without a walking aid.

Theta-burst brain stimulation for walking freezing in Parkinson’s
This trial tests whether a specific type of noninvasive brain stimulation (theta-burst TMS) can improve “freezing of gait,” where walking suddenly stops. It may help by targeting brain circuits involved in movement, especially if your symptoms persist despite stable medication.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 40–85 - NCT07147543RecruitingPhase 4
Study of a powered exercise device for walking problems
This trial tests if a motorized leg exercise machine can help improve walking and balance in adults with gait disorders. It may be suitable for people who have difficulty walking but can stand with or without help.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for gait?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 336 recruiting gait 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 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 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.
