Recruiting studies
- NCT07732972Recruiting
Brain and nerve effects of spinal cord stimulation study
This study uses special recordings to understand how a temporary spinal cord stimulator (a device that sends mild electrical pulses) changes brain and nerve activity in people with chronic pain or spinal cord injury. It aims to find out how the stimulation helps the nervous system work better.

Spinal cord stimulation to help breathing after neck injury
This trial tests if a device placed near the spinal cord can help people with a neck injury breathe better without a ventilator. It's for those who still need breathing support at least 2 weeks after their injury.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT07722429Recruiting
Personalized spinal stimulation for arm function after spinal injury
This study tests a personalized electrical stimulation treatment placed near the spine to see if it can improve arm and hand function after a spinal cord injury. If you have a stable injury above the mid-back and have not had new nerve problems in the last 6 months, you may be able to join.
Hualien CityAges 18–70 - NCT07699094Recruiting

This study tests a new exercise program combining arm cycling with electrical stimulation of leg muscles for people with spinal cord injury. The goal is to improve your overall health and fitness.
Hattiesburg, MississippiAges 21–70 - NCT07645144Enrolling by invitation
Electrical Stimulation to Improve Walking After Spinal Cord Injury
This trial tests whether electrical stimulation of leg muscles, combined with gait training, can help people with incomplete spinal cord injuries walk better. Electrical stimulation works by sending mild electrical pulses to trigger muscle contractions, potentially improving strength and walking ability.
AmsterdamAges 17–85 - NCT07640711Recruiting
Brain-Computer Interface for High Spinal Cord Injury
This trial tests a surgically implanted brain-computer interface (BCI) system designed to help people with severe spinal cord injuries regain some ability to move or control devices using their thoughts. The device reads signals directly from the brain to bypass the injured spinal cord.
Utrecht, UtrechtAges 18–70 - NCT07645027Recruiting
Breathing exercises to improve lung function after neck spinal cord injury
This study tests whether special breathing exercises using a handheld device can help people recover lung strength after a recent cervical (neck-level) spinal cord injury. The exercises are done during in-patient rehabilitation and may help you breathe better and improve your overall recovery.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–38 - NCT07625332RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Galantamine for Metabolic Syndrome in Spinal Cord Injury
This study tests whether a medication called galantamine can help improve metabolic syndrome (a cluster of health conditions including obesity, high blood sugar, and high cholesterol) in people with chronic spinal cord injury. The goal is to see if this treatment can reduce health risks and improve overall wellness.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 21–75 - NCT06596174Recruiting
Spinal stimulation and ankle training for spinal cord injury
This trial tests if adding a non-invasive spinal stimulation technique to ankle movement training can improve recovery in people with chronic spinal cord injury. It might be relevant if you have had a spinal cord injury for more than a year and are not on certain medications.
TaoyuanAges 20 years+ - NCT07603752Recruiting
Brain implant to restore arm movement in spinal cord injury
This trial tests a wireless implant placed on the brain's surface to help people with cervical (neck-level) spinal cord injuries regain some arm and hand movement. The device reads brain signals and sends them to muscles, potentially bypassing the damaged spinal cord.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT05906056Recruiting
CPM therapy vs bone overgrowth in hip or knee
This study compares continuous passive motion (a machine that gently moves a joint without you moving it) versus the body’s tendency to form extra bone called heterotopic ossification. It aims to see whether CPM can affect how and how much bone overgrowth develops after neurologic injuries like stroke, brain injury, or spinal cord injury.
Ioannina, EpirusAges 15–70 - NCT07588503RecruitingPhase 1
FES Cycling With Blood Flow Restriction for Spinal Cord Injury
This study tests a new exercise method combining electrical stimulation (FES) and controlled blood flow restriction while you cycle. It's designed to improve heart health, blood sugar control, and fitness in people with spinal cord injuries.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–75 - NCT07583836Recruiting
Early vs. delayed surgery for spinal cord injury recovery
This trial compares whether having surgery sooner or waiting longer after a spinal cord injury helps patients recover better. Researchers will track how well patients regain movement and function over time.
RawalpindiAges 18–60 - NCT07578532Recruiting
Nerve Stimulation for Overactive Bladder After Spinal Cord Injury
This trial tests two non-surgical treatments—magnetic and electrical nerve stimulation applied to the skin over the sacrum (base of spine)—to help control bladder overactivity in people with spinal cord injury. The goal is to reduce involuntary bladder contractions and improve bladder control.
AnkaraAges 18–65 - NCT06725836Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation study for spinal cord injury
This study tests how spinal cord stimulation affects brain activity in people with spinal cord injuries. It aims to understand the physiological effects using EEG (a brainwave test).
Vladivostok, Primorskiy (Maritime) KrayAges Any age - NCT06451133Recruiting

This study tests a way to manage blood pressure after a traumatic spinal cord injury. It aims to improve blood flow to the injured area and help recovery.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07553923Recruiting
High-intensity walking rehabilitation for spinal cord injury
This study tests whether intensive walking training helps people with incomplete spinal cord injuries regain walking ability. You would work with physical therapists on challenging walking exercises to improve strength and independence.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT07541612Recruiting
Monitoring Spinal Cord Blood Flow During Aortic Surgery
This study tests a non-invasive monitoring device (NIRS) that tracks blood flow to the spinal cord during planned aortic surgery. The goal is to better understand and prevent spinal cord damage that can cause paralysis after major aortic procedures.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for spinal cord injuries?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 382 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.
