Walking therapy with and without muscle stimulation for stroke recovery
This study tests whether adding electrical muscle stimulation to a walking and movement program helps stroke survivors walk better, become more independent, and improve their quality of life.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 45–65 - NCT07539389Recruiting
Robot-Assisted Walking Training for Children With Cerebral Palsy
This study tests whether a robotic device called Bambini Kids can safely help children with cerebral palsy improve their walking and movement. The robot assists with gait training—guided walking practice—to see if it helps strengthen muscles and improve mobility.
Songpa, SeoulAges 2–10 - NCT07529093Recruiting
Mobilization and Movement Training for Sacroiliac Joint Pain
This trial tests whether a combination of hands-on joint mobilization techniques and specific movement control exercises can reduce pain and improve function in people with sacroiliac joint dysfunction (pain in the lower back/buttock area where the spine connects to the pelvis). You would receive these treatments over several weeks and be measured on pain relief, movement, walking, and daily activities.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 45–64 - NCT07510633Recruiting
Mobile brain/body imaging for robotic gait rehab after stroke
This trial uses a mobile brain and body imaging system to help improve walking with a robotic exoskeleton in people who have had a stroke. It could help you walk better during overground gait training.
Costa Masnaga, LeccoAges 18 years+ - NCT07493096Recruiting
Intensive therapy program for children with brain-based conditions
This trial tests an intensive therapy program designed to help children with brain-based conditions like cerebral palsy or autism improve their skills in movement, thinking, and daily activities. The program runs for 2 weeks with daily sessions, and researchers will check for changes in your child's abilities.
The Woodlands, TexasAges 4–12 - NCT07496853Recruiting
Arm support's effect on walking after stroke
This study looks at whether using a cane or other support for your affected arm can improve how you walk. If you had a stroke and have trouble using one side of your body, this trial may help find better ways to help you move safely.
AnkaraAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT07481461Recruiting
Knee alignment and biology in osteoarthritis
This study looks at how changes in knee alignment affect symptoms and joint biology in people with early knee osteoarthritis. It may help doctors understand how to better treat knee OA.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges 18 years+ - NCT07478146Recruiting
Aerobic exercise for brain and movement in Parkinson's
This study tests whether moderate aerobic exercise (like brisk walking or cycling) can improve thinking, memory, and walking ability in people with Parkinson's disease. It also looks at how exercise affects blood flow in the brain.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 40 years+ - NCT04814082Recruiting
Compare two knee implant types for walking and function
This study compares two designs of knee replacement implants to see how they affect walking, function, and outcomes after surgery. You may be randomly assigned to one of the implant types used for your specific, approved knee replacement.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–75 - NCT07469163RecruitingPhase 1
Walking on a split-belt treadmill after stroke
This study tests different amounts of walking on a special treadmill that moves each leg at a different speed. It may help people recovering from a first stroke to improve their walking.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT06519279Recruiting
Freezing of gait study for Parkinson's patients
This study looks at how Parkinson's disease affects freezing of gait (a sudden feeling of being stuck while walking). It may help researchers better understand this symptom and improve future treatments. You may be able to join if you can walk 10 meters without help and don't have a deep brain stimulator.
Tel AvivAges 18 years+ - NCT06733077Recruiting
Digital services for Parkinson's disease
This study is developing digital services for people with Parkinson's disease and also includes healthy volunteers. It aims to understand movement problems like freezing of gait and festination, and uses a virtual reality system to measure these issues.
ExeterAges 18 years+ - NCT06107010Recruiting
Robotic exoskeleton for walking after stroke
This trial tests a robotic exoskeleton (Atalante) to help people who have had a stroke and have trouble walking. It looks at whether using the device early (1–4 months after stroke) can improve the ability to walk again.
CréteilAges 18 years+ - NCT07427563Recruiting
Cerebellar deep brain stimulation for ataxia
This trial tests whether stimulating a part of the brain called the cerebellum with a device can help improve balance and coordination in people with primary ataxia (a movement disorder you were born with or inherited). It aims to see if this treatment is safe and effective over one year.
Toronto, OntarioAges 20–70 - NCT07424924Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for gait?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 334 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.
