BreEStim to help arm movement after long-term stroke
This pilot study tests a type of nerve stimulation (BreEStim) to improve arm and finger movement in people with chronic stroke-related stiffness. It may help if you have persistent, measurable muscle tightness and are medically stable.

Brain stimulation to improve arm movement after stroke
This study tests a new type of non-invasive brain stimulation to help people with arm weakness after a stroke improve their movement and daily function.
Carouge, Canton of GenevaAges 18 years+ - NCT06951035Recruiting
Brain stimulation and BCI for arm movement after stroke
This study tests whether combining brain stimulation (rTMS) with a brain-computer interface (a device that reads your brain signals) can help improve arm and hand movement after a stroke. It is for people who had a single stroke more than 6 months ago and still have some weakness but can move their fingers slightly.
ParisAges 18–85 - NCT07010536Recruiting
Virtual reality music therapy for stroke recovery
This study tests whether combining virtual reality games with music therapy can help improve thinking and movement skills in people who had a stroke within the last 6 months. It may be a good option if you are between 50 and 75 and can sit up and use your hearing and vision.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 50–75 - 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 - NCT07458503Recruiting
Brain stimulation plus arm therapy for stroke recovery
This study tests a new combination treatment for people who had a stroke more than six months ago and still have arm weakness. It uses a gentle electrical current on the head (tDCS) along with a therapy that encourages use of the affected arm. The goal is to improve arm movement and daily function.
Belém, ParáAges 40–80 - NCT04816227Recruiting
Study of immune cells in ALS and related movement problems
This study looks at immune cells (called macrophages) from people with ALS and certain related movement or nerve conditions. It aims to better understand how the disease works and may help researchers design future treatments.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT05473689Recruiting
Sleep study in early spinal cord injury
This study looks at how sleep quality affects movement problems after a new spinal cord injury. Researchers hope to identify sleep targets that could improve motor function during recovery.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05479006Recruiting
tDCS for arm weakness after stroke
This trial tests whether a targeted, noninvasive brain stimulation (tDCS) can improve arm weakness and movement after stroke. It may help people who have significant trouble moving one arm on the side affected by stroke.
Urbana, IllinoisAges 18–90 - NCT05557864Recruiting
Brain scan study for Parkinson’s patients with deep brain stimulators
This study looks at how the location of a deep brain stimulator in Parkinson’s disease affects movement problems. It mainly uses advanced 7T brain imaging to compare brain activity and motor symptoms.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 21–89 - NCT06575140Recruiting
Stroke recovery arm stimulation study
This study tests a noninvasive stimulation technique to help improve arm movement in people who recently had a stroke. It is for those who still have some ability to move their fingers but have significant weakness on one side.
Mexico CityAges 18–79 - NCT06782464Recruiting
Freezing nerves for shoulder pain after stroke or brain injury
This trial tests if freezing certain nerves in the upper arm (cryoneurolysis) works as well as standard care for reducing shoulder pain and muscle tightness after a stroke or brain injury. It aims to improve function and ease caregiving tasks.
LuxembourgAges 18 years+ - NCT07366697Recruiting
Using wrist sensors to measure daily arm use after stroke
This study tests whether wearing small activity monitors on both wrists for 3 days can better measure how stroke affects daily two-handed tasks. It aims to improve understanding of real-world arm function.
LeuvenAges 18–80 - NCT07429188Recruiting
Study of upper-limb assistive device users
This study looks at how well upper-limb assistive devices (like robotic arms) work for people who use them and for their caregivers. You and your caregiver can help by sharing your experiences in video interviews.
PerpignanAges 18 years+ - NCT07467915Recruiting
Combined mirror therapy and soft robotic glove for hand recovery after stroke
This trial tests if using a soft robotic glove together with mirror therapy can help improve hand and arm movement in people recovering from a stroke. You would wear the glove on your affected hand while looking in a mirror at your unaffected hand, which may help retrain your brain.
Baghdad, BabylonAges 18–70 - NCT07523503Recruiting
One-sided vs. both-sides arm training after stroke
This study compares two ways of doing hand and arm exercises after stroke: practicing with just your weak arm, or practicing with both arms together. The goal is to see which approach helps you regain better movement, strength, and hand coordination.
Kot AdduAges 40–75 - NCT07578896Recruiting
Balance Board Training for Children with Cognitive and Motor Delays
This study tests whether practicing on a special wobbling balance board can help improve how children with cognitive delays move and coordinate their bodies. The goal is to see if this type of training strengthens balance, coordination, and motor skills.

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