Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07050069Recruiting
Breathing training for spinal cord injury patients
This study tests a new breathing exercise method combined with a gentle brain stimulation technique to help people with spinal cord injury improve their breathing and lung function. It may be an option if your injury is recent and at or above the mid-back level.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–80 - NCT07042815Enrolling by invitation
Long-term follow-up for spinal cord stimulation after injury
This trial checks on people who already have a spinal cord stimulator from past research, to see how well it works over time. It looks at safety and how the device affects daily life.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07030322Enrolling by invitation
Using a personal exoskeleton at home: health and cost study
This study looks at how using a wearable robotic exoskeleton in your home and community affects your health and finances. If eligible, you would use the device with a trained support person to see if it helps with daily mobility.
San Rafael, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07024407RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of andecaliximab for preventing bone growth after spinal cord injury
This trial tests a drug called andecaliximab to see if it can stop abnormal bone growth (heterotopic ossification) that sometimes happens after a spinal cord injury. It is for people who are at high risk for this bone growth and aims to prevent it from forming.
Denver, ColoradoAges 18–89 - NCT06989905RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing a brain stimulation method for spinal cord injury
This trial tests whether a brain stimulation technique can improve arm and hand function in people with spinal cord injury at or above C6. It may help strengthen signals from the brain to the wrist muscles.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06965127Recruiting
Walking implant for incomplete spinal cord injury
This trial tests an implant to help people with incomplete spinal cord injury walk better. It is for those who can walk slowly or with difficulty and have some muscle function in their trunk or legs.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–75 - NCT06948175Enrolling by invitation
Abdominal stimulation for bowel issues after spinal cord injury
This trial tests if electrical stimulation on the stomach can help people with spinal cord injury have faster, easier bowel movements. It may help if your bowel routine takes longer than 30 minutes.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18–80 - NCT06906536Enrolling by invitation
Intermittent low oxygen to improve leg function after spinal injury
This trial tests whether short, controlled sessions of low oxygen (like breathing thin air) can improve leg movement and blood markers in people with spinal cord injuries. It may help with walking or standing.
Boulder, ColoradoAges 18–75 - NCT06882460Recruiting
Diet and exercise for low blood pressure after meals
This study tests whether specific diet and exercise plans can help prevent blood pressure drops after eating in people with spinal cord injury (SCI). If you have SCI and use a wheelchair, this trial may help you find ways to manage low blood pressure after meals.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–65 - NCT06873776Enrolling by invitation
Arm and leg cycling to speed up spinal cord injury recovery
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 - NCT06836739Recruiting
Genital nerve stimulation for bowel function after spinal cord injury
This trial tests whether gentle electrical stimulation of the genital nerve can help people with spinal cord injury improve bowel control. If it works, this at-home device could reduce constipation and make bowel care easier and more predictable.
Cleveland, OhioAges 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+ - NCT06734000Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for spinal cord injuries?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 381 recruiting spinal cord 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 spinal cord 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 spinal cord 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.
