Physical fitness program for children with mobility challenges
This study tests a physical fitness program designed for children who have mobility challenges due to conditions like cerebral palsy. The program aims to improve fitness and overall well-being in a safe and supportive environment.
Chicago Heights, IllinoisAges 6–18 - NCT07079488Enrolling by invitation
Vestibular function and motor development in young children
This study looks at how the balance system (vestibular function) develops in young children and how it relates to their motor skills. It may help understand typical and atypical development.
StockholmAges 5 months–3 years - NCT07167732Recruiting
CTNNB1 Syndrome Natural History Study
This study follows people with CTNNB1 syndrome over time to better understand the condition. It does not test any new treatment—just collects information to help future research.
SydneyAges Any age - NCT07280104Recruiting
Infants with congenital hypothyroidism and development
This study looks at how babies with primary congenital hypothyroidism (low thyroid hormone from birth) grow and develop after being treated. It helps doctors understand if treatment helps them reach normal milestones.
NiğdeAges 6 months–1.5 years - NCT07525726Recruiting
Finger Measurements and Baby Development Study
This research explores whether the ratio (comparison) of finger lengths in babies relates to their growth and developmental progress. Researchers will measure babies' fingers and track their physical and mental development over time.
NiğdeAges 1 year–1.5 years - NCT07553507Enrolling by invitation
Physical Activity Program for Preschool Children's Movement Skills
This study tests whether a physical activity program at school helps preschool children develop better movement skills and healthy activity habits. Researchers will track how much children move throughout the day and how well they can run, jump, and play.
Maia, Porto DistrictAges 3–6 - NCT07325175Recruiting
Brain study to improve treatment for childhood dystonia
This study measures brain signals in children with dystonia to understand how the brain controls movement, with the goal of improving treatments like Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS). It also uses healthy children for comparison.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 6–21 - NCT04685746Recruiting
Testing how balance and motion affect child development
This study looks at how the vestibular system (your balance and motion sensing) is involved in children’s thinking and movement. It compares typically developing children with children who have balance-related (vestibular) problems or certain neurodevelopmental conditions to understand what to expect and how development may differ.
GhentAges 6–13 - NCT06970522Recruiting
Wearable sensors to detect muscle problems in babies
This trial uses small wearable sensors to measure muscle activity in babies with low or typical muscle tone. The goal is to better spot early signs of movement problems so therapy can start sooner.
Chicago, IllinoisAges birth–2 months - NCT07286565Recruiting
Remote motor development study for early-diagnosed DMD or SMA
This study remotely tracks motor development in children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy or spinal muscular atrophy who were diagnosed at birth or before symptoms started. It aims to see if early monitoring helps improve long-term care and outcomes.
LiègeAges 4 months+ - NCT07346300Recruiting
We-Move With Windy: Gross Motor Skills for Kids
This study tests a program to help young children (ages 3-5) develop gross motor skills like running and jumping, with a focus on families where the mother has a higher body mass index (BMI over 30). The goal is to see if the program improves physical activity and motor development.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 3 years+ - NCT07180628Recruiting
Brain study of speech in adults who stutter
This study uses brain scans to look at how the brain's speech circuits work in adults who stutter. Researchers hope to better understand the brain activity behind stuttering, which could lead to improved treatments.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18–65 - NCT06857539Recruiting
Assessing thinking and movement in high-risk infants
This study looks at how high-risk infants (especially those born early or with brain concerns) develop their thinking and movement skills over time, comparing them to healthy babies. The goal is to better understand and support their development.
CorkAges birth–4 months - NCT06448520Recruiting
Muscle power sprint test in children
This study is measuring how fast and powerful kids' legs are during a short sprint test. Researchers want to collect normal values from healthy children so doctors can compare results in the future.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 5–12 - NCT06027645Recruiting
Crawling therapy for very premature infants
This trial tests if early crawling practice on a special skate can help very premature babies at risk for developmental problems. It aims to improve their movement and brain development.
ParisAges 9 months–10 months - NCT06278961Recruiting
Filming Baby Movements at Home
This study will record your baby's natural movements using a home video taken on your smartphone. It aims to learn how babies learn to move, whether they are healthy or have certain medical conditions.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 2 months–5 months - NCT06137625Recruiting
Rhythm and dance learning in children with motor disorders
This study looks at how rhythm affects learning dance moves in children ages 8 to 16, both those with motor disorders (like cerebral palsy or developmental coordination disorder) and those without. It may help understand how to make movement therapy more effective.
ToulouseAges 8–16 - NCT05236803Recruiting
Assessing motor problems in autistic children
This study aims to better understand how motor skills (movement and coordination) work in children with autism spectrum disorder. It uses an assessment approach to help researchers understand what motor difficulties look like, which may improve future evaluations and support.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for motor development?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 44 recruiting motor development 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 motor development 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 motor development 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.
