Recruiting studies
- NCT05837286Recruiting
Conservative care for trigger finger after steroid shots
This study looks at non-surgical (conservative) treatment options for trigger finger after you’ve already had a cortisone shot in the affected finger(s). It may help determine what approach works best to reduce symptoms without more invasive procedures.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–100 - NCT07566507Recruiting
High-Energy Laser for Thumb Joint Arthritis
This trial tests whether a high-energy laser can reduce pain and improve function in people with arthritis at the base of the thumb (where it connects to the wrist). The laser is applied to the skin and may help by reducing inflammation and pain without surgery.
BariAges 18 years+ - NCT06033027Recruiting
Testing a soft robotic glove for hand help
This trial tests a soft robotic glove that helps you grip and hold objects if your hand is weak due to a nerve problem or injury. It's meant for people who have trouble with daily tasks like eating or dressing.
Enschede, OverijsselAges 18–90 - NCT05553457Recruiting
Active hand brace study for C6–C7 spinal cord injury
This trial tests an active hand brace designed to help people with C6–C7 spinal cord injury improve hand and finger movement. It may help with daily hand use by training and supporting weaker motor control after injury.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06104735Recruiting
Hand training with brain and spinal cord stimulation after spinal cord injury
This study tests whether combining hand exercises with stimulation of the brain and spinal cord can improve hand function after a spinal cord injury. You would attend about 53 study visits at the Bronx VA Medical Center.
The Bronx, New YorkAges 18–85 - NCT03610763Recruiting
Training brain recovery after arm nerve repair
This study tests a way to help your brain and nerves work better after an arm/hand nerve repair that is already in the long-term (chronic) recovery stage. It may help improve hand and arm function by targeting “neuroplasticity,” meaning the brain’s ability to adapt after injury.
Louisville, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT07222033Recruiting
Self-balancing exoskeleton for spinal cord injury
This trial will test a self-balancing personal exoskeleton for people with spinal cord injuries. It may help you walk again and improve your mobility.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07536386Recruiting
Robotic Exoskeleton Walking Aid for Spinal Cord Injury
This study tests a self-balancing robotic exoskeleton device designed to help people with spinal cord injuries stand and walk. Researchers will assess whether the device improves mobility and quality of life over nine visits to a research center.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT06541041Recruiting
Nerve transfer with electrical stimulation for hand function after spinal injury
This trial tests a surgery that moves nerves (nerve transfers) plus gentle electrical stimulation to help people with spinal cord injury regain hand movement. It may be a good fit if you have a C6 or C7 injury and haven't had hand surgery before.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18–65 - NCT06489106Enrolling by invitation
Spinal stimulation to improve hand function in kids with spinal cord injury
This study tests a noninvasive spinal stimulation device to help children with spinal cord injury regain hand strength and control. It may improve grip and daily activities.
Louisville, KentuckyAges 7–12 - NCT06538974Recruiting
Long-term use of an exoskeleton for leg weakness
This trial tests a walking device called an exoskeleton to help people with leg weakness or movement problems. It's designed to see if using the exoskeleton regularly over time can help improve walking or mobility.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT06777576Recruiting
Self-balancing exoskeleton for spinal cord injury
This trial tests a self-balancing exoskeleton (a wearable robotic suit) to help people with spinal cord injuries stand and walk. It is designed for those with injuries at or above the T6 level and looks at how well the device works and how it feels to use.
The Bronx, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06814015Recruiting
Self-balancing exoskeleton for spinal cord injury
This trial tests a self-balancing exoskeleton (a wearable robotic device) to help people with spinal cord injury stand and walk. It is for people with injury at or above T6, at least 6 months past injury, and a caregiver who can help during the study visits.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06611748Recruiting
Hand function restoration after spinal cord injury
This trial tests a device to help people with cervical spinal cord injury improve hand function. It's for those with certain levels of paralysis and some residual arm strength.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04276181Recruiting
Nerve and tendon transfer surgery for hand function after spinal cord injury
This trial studies a specialized surgery that reroutes nerves and tendons to help restore hand and grip function after a spinal cord injury. It may help some people regain more useful hand movement if their arm muscle strength and nerve signals are strong enough.
MölndalAges 15–55 - NCT05365282Recruiting
Check how a wrist artery procedure affects hand nerve symptoms
This study looks at whether a procedure on an artery in the wrist is linked to new or worsening nerve symptoms in the hand. It may help doctors understand who is at higher or lower risk and improve safety.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT03680872Recruiting
Brain-to-nerve study to improve hand movement after spinal injury
This trial tests a “neural bypass” approach to help restore hand movement and feeling in people with tetraplegia from a spinal cord injury. You would have repeated visits for brain/nerve testing and may receive study procedures to see if function improves.
Manhasset, New YorkAges 22–65 - NCT06978426Recruiting
Grip strength test for wrist pain in e-sports athletes
This trial is for professional e-sports athletes ages 18–30 who game at least 35 hours a week. It uses a handheld device to measure grip strength in both hands to predict who might get wrist pain from gaming.
Al Ḩayy Ath Thāmin, Giza GovernorateAges 18–30 - NCT06153121Recruiting
Arm and shoulder tests for healthy tennis players and swimmers
This study is for healthy tennis players and swimmers. It tests a set of physical performance tests for the upper body (arms, shoulders, hands) to see how well they measure athletic ability. If you are a competitive tennis player or swimmer and have no arm or shoulder problems, you may be eligible.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for hand injuries?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 43 recruiting hand injuries 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 hand injuries 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 hand injuries 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.
