Bakersfield, CaliforniaAges 18–60 - NCT05748028Recruiting
Testing treatment for pain and nerve symptoms in Parkinson’s
This study looks at pain and “autonomic” (automatic body) symptoms in people with Parkinson’s disease or a related condition called multiple system atrophy. It aims to understand what helps and to learn more about these symptoms in different types of Parkinson-like illnesses.

Test of an NSAID to help osteoarthritis pain when walking
This trial studies whether taking an anti-inflammatory pain medicine (an NSAID) can reduce hip or knee osteoarthritis pain during walking. It may help people who have had walking pain for at least 3 months and don’t already take NSAIDs.
Clermont-FerrandAges 50–70 - NCT05720780Recruiting
Music-based rehab training for people with COPD and low oxygen
This trial studies whether combining music with exercise training can improve breathing ability and exercise tolerance in people with COPD and chronic low oxygen. It also looks at whether the program is safe for people who are stable on long-term oxygen.
Telese Terme, BeneventoAges 40–85 - NCT05566483Recruiting
Study long COVID physiology and cardiopulmonary rehab effects
This study looks at how long COVID affects the body and whether cardiopulmonary rehabilitation improves quality of life and physical function. It may help participants better understand their symptoms and see if a structured rehab program improves daily abilities.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT05680597Recruiting
Video balance rehab program for Parkinson’s symptoms
This trial tests a 4-week, at-home video rehabilitation program focused on balance problems in people with Parkinson’s disease. It aims to see whether this tele-rehab approach helps with walking and stability while keeping medications steady.
Portland, OregonAges 55–85 - NCT05700825RecruitingPhase 2
Rehab training to improve swallow safety in Parkinson’s
This trial tests a rehabilitation approach aimed at improving airway protection during swallowing in people with Parkinson’s disease. It may help reduce the risk of food or liquid going down the wrong way by improving swallow safety.
West Lafayette, IndianaAges 50–90 - NCT05696652Recruiting
Exercise training study for people with heart failure
This study looks for blood and other markers that can explain how people with heart failure respond to exercise training. It may help researchers better tailor exercise or treatment plans for heart failure in the future.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18–89 - NCT05665998Recruiting
Brain-controlled spinal stimulation for arm rehab after neck injury
This study tests a brain-controlled spinal stimulation approach to improve arm (upper limb) movement after a neck spinal cord injury. It may help people who have very limited arm function after a stable, traumatic injury, using frequent training and device-related checks.
Lausanne, Canton of VaudAges 18–75 - NCT05595148Enrolling by invitation
Earlier vs later walking after certain bone fractures
This study compares starting to put weight on your injured leg sooner versus waiting before walking. It aims to see which approach is safer and helps recovery after specific pelvic, hip, knee, and ankle fractures treated with surgery.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05591040Recruiting
Biofeedback to help swallow problems after stroke
This trial studies whether using “biofeedback” (seeing your body’s muscle signals on a screen) along with standard care can improve swallowing after a stroke. You might be eligible if you have ongoing swallow trouble and can safely do the training sessions.
Venice-LidoAges 18–89 - NCT05563103Recruiting
Combination therapy to improve spinal cord injury recovery
This trial studies a combination of treatments to help people with certain types of spinal cord injury regain some movement and feeling over time. If you meet the specific injury and health criteria, you may be asked to do simple walking and assessment tests during treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–70 - NCT05579678Recruiting
Personal rehab program after donor bone marrow transplant
This study looks at a personalized rehabilitation program for people who are eligible to receive a bone marrow transplant from a donor. The goal is to improve recovery and function after transplant.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18–70 - NCT05028712Recruiting

New York, New YorkAges 12–99 - NCT05511285Recruiting
Improving sleep and learning after arm stroke rehab
This study tests a sleep-improvement program (Sleepio) to see if better sleep can help people learn and recover after a stroke that affects the arm. You may be able to join if you’re recently out of hospital and can use the internet reliably.
OxfordAges 18 years+ - NCT05487053Recruiting
Nerve block type test after knee replacement
