This study tests if regular arm and leg cycling exercises can help people with incomplete spinal cord injuries walk faster and recover more. You must be at least one year post-injury and able to walk a short distance with assistance.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–75 - NCT06867809Recruiting
Spinal and brain stimulation for arm movement after neck injury
This study tests whether using a combination of spinal and brain stimulation can help improve arm and hand movement in people who have had a cervical spinal cord injury (neck area) at least one year ago. It is for those with some remaining movement but not full strength.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06853015RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Double dose of 4-AP for spinal cord injury recovery
This study tests whether a higher dose of a drug called 4-AP can help improve leg movement and function after a spinal cord injury. It is for people who have had a spinal cord injury at or above the lower back and can already move their ankle and hip slightly.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–85 - NCT06841770RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a delivery device for spinal cord injury treatment
This trial tests a device that delivers a special cell therapy (LCTOPC1) into the spinal cord. It is for people with a recent or chronic spinal cord injury that is severe (no feeling or movement below the injury) or leaves some sensation but no movement.
Downey, CaliforniaAges 18–65 - NCT06839300Recruiting
Blood biomarkers in spinal cord injury study
This study is looking for people with a spinal cord injury from a blunt force (not a penetrating injury like a gunshot or stab wound) to see if certain substances in the blood (called biomarkers) can help doctors understand the injury better and predict recovery. It involves an initial blood sample within 24 hours of the injury and follow-up assessments.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 19 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+ - NCT06587607Recruiting
VR mindfulness training for veterans with spinal cord injury
This study tests whether mindfulness training with virtual reality can help veterans with spinal cord injury manage chronic pain. It is done from home using a VR headset and group video calls.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06543277Recruiting
Nerve stimulation with hand therapy for spinal cord injury
This trial tests a safe, non-invasive nerve stimulation on the ear combined with arm and hand therapy to see if it can improve movement and function for people with neck-level spinal cord injury who still have some hand ability.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06455137Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation for spinal cord injury recovery
This trial tests whether electrical stimulation of the spinal cord can improve movement and muscle control in people with spinal cord injury. If you've had a spinal cord injury for more than a year and are between 20-70 years old, this might help improve leg function and walking.
Hualien CityAges 20–70 - NCT06443281Recruiting
Understanding pain after spinal cord injury or nerve damage
This study is looking at how people with spinal cord injuries or peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage outside the spine) experience pain. The goal is to better understand the different types of pain, which could help doctors create more personalized treatments in the future.
Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges 18–80 - NCT06438471RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new drug for nerve pain after spinal cord injury
This trial tests an experimental pill for people with spinal cord injury who have long-term nerve pain. It aims to see if the drug can reduce pain and be safe.

Spinal cord stimulation for kids with incomplete injuries
This study tests if mild electrical pulses to the spinal cord can help children ages 3 to 16 with incomplete spinal cord injuries walk better. It is important for children who still have some movement in their legs but need extra help to improve their walking.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 3–16 - NCT06065384Recruiting
Arm training for recovery after recent spinal cord injury
