Recruiting studies
- NCT05908149Recruiting
Gait analysis with a shoe insole splint after stroke

AlmeríaAges 2–11 - NCT06316232RecruitingPhase 4
DBS and Levodopa for Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's
This trial tests whether increasing the dose of levodopa or adjusting deep brain stimulation (DBS) can help reduce freezing of gait in people with Parkinson's who already have good control of other symptoms. It aims to find the best way to manage this common and frustrating problem.
BolognaAges 18–80 - NCT07695233Recruiting
Ultrasound brain stimulation for freezing of gait in Parkinson's
This trial tests a noninvasive ultrasound treatment targeting a brain area called the pedunculopontine nucleus to help reduce freezing of gait (a sudden inability to walk) in Parkinson's disease. If you have Parkinson's and experience freezing, you may be eligible to try this new approach.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–90 - NCT06327035Recruiting
Walking recovery after a recent stroke
This study follows how walking ability improves in people recovering from a recent stroke during their stay in a rehabilitation center. The goal is to better understand recovery patterns so therapy can be tailored.
Granville, NormandyAges 18 years+ - NCT06400043Recruiting
Walking while thinking in kids with coordination disorder
This study looks at how walking and thinking at the same time (dual-tasking) affects children with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD). It may help understand why multitasking can be harder for some kids and lead to better support strategies.
Ghent, East-FlandersAges 7–17 - NCT06400186Recruiting
Walking training to improve balance after stroke
This trial tests a new walking training method designed to help you improve your balance after a stroke. It's for people who have had a stroke more than 6 months ago and can walk a short distance, with or without a cane or simple ankle brace.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–80 - NCT06407219Recruiting
Robot-assisted walking training for nerve or muscle problems
This study tests if a single session of walking with a robotic device called Trexo can help people who have trouble walking due to a nerve or muscle condition. The robot supports your legs and helps you practice walking.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 4 years+ - NCT06468891Recruiting
Walking Patterns in Women With Stress Incontinence
This study compares how women with and without mild stress urinary incontinence walk. It may help understand how incontinence affects movement and balance.
CairoAges 40–60 - NCT06533956Recruiting
Walking training with blood flow restriction for children with cerebral palsy
This study tests a new walking program that combines treadmill training with a special pressure cuff on the legs (blood flow restriction). It may help children with cerebral palsy strengthen their legs and walk better.
AngersAges 8–18 - NCT06598878Recruiting
AR-assisted walking training for Parkinson's
This trial tests walking training with augmented reality (AR) goggles to help with movement in Parkinson's disease. It may help improve your gait and balance.
TaoyuanAges 20 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 - NCT06798844RecruitingPhase 2
Spinal cord stimulation for freezing of gait in Parkinson's
This trial tests whether a spinal cord stimulator can reduce freezing of gait (feeling stuck when walking) in people with Parkinson's disease. It may help you if you have daily freezing episodes and are willing to have a small device implanted.
LeuvenAges 40–80 - NCT06815302Recruiting
Improving turning and freezing in Parkinson's disease
This study tests whether a 6-week exercise program can help people with Parkinson's disease who experience freezing of gait. You would exercise three times a week to see if it reduces freezing and improves turning.
Tempe, ArizonaAges 50–80 - NCT06845709Recruiting
Balance and eye exercises for stroke recovery in older adults
This study tests two simple exercise programs—one for balance and strength (Otago exercises) and one for eye-head coordination (gaze stabilization)—to help older adults who have had a stroke improve their walking, balance, and quality of life.
Islamabad, FedralAges 50–70 - NCT06909240Recruiting
Walking training after first leg blood clot: a study
This study tests whether a progressive walking program helps people recover better after their first leg blood clot (DVT). You would be part of a walking training group and researchers will see if it improves walking ability and leg symptoms.
Hvidovre, Capital RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT06947889Recruiting
Biofeedback and robot walking training for children with CP
This study tests a biofeedback system added to robotic walking training for children with cerebral palsy. The robot helps move the legs while a screen gives real-time feedback, aiming to improve walking ability.
San Giovanni Rotondo, FGAges 3–18 - NCT06957405Recruiting
Mental practice for freezing in Parkinson's disease
This trial tests whether remote mental practice can help reduce freezing of gait in people with Parkinson's disease. If you experience freezing episodes, you may be able to participate from home through video calls.
São Paulo, São PauloAges Any age - NCT06994793Recruiting
Testing a device that measures walking and jumping
This study checks if a device called iSen can accurately measure how healthy adults walk and jump. If you are a healthy adult between 18 and 35, your participation could help confirm whether this device works well for future use.
KirikkaleAges 18–35 - NCT06994728Recruiting
How DBS affects vision and freezing of gait in Parkinson's
This trial looks at how deep brain stimulation (DBS) affects the way you see and move, and how that relates to freezing of gait (when your feet suddenly feel stuck). If you have Parkinson's disease, already have a DBS device, and experience freezing, this study may help researchers understand your symptoms better.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07035730Recruiting
Walking recovery after stroke using a robotic hip exoskeleton
This study tests a robotic device (SHAJA-R exoskeleton) that helps move your hips during walking. It is for people who have had a stroke at least 3 months ago and still have some trouble walking, but can walk a little with or without help.
Costa Masnaga, ItalyAges 18–80 - NCT07041775Recruiting
MINT video game training to improve walking after stroke
This study tests a new video-game–style training called MINT to help people who have had a stroke walk better. If you have trouble walking because one leg is weaker or slower than the other, this training might help improve your balance and coordination.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–85 - NCT07045519Recruiting
Vibration therapy for walking and balance in cerebral palsy
This study tests whether a gentle vibrating device applied to the legs can improve walking and balance in children with cerebral palsy. It may help reduce muscle tightness and make moving easier.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for gait?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 337 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.
