Recruiting studies
- NCT05492188Recruiting
Testing training and skin reflex changes for nerve pain after SCI
This study looks at how a training program affects skin reflexes and nerve pain in people with spinal cord injury (SCI). It may help researchers find better ways to manage nerve pain by changing how the body responds to touch and training.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05903859RecruitingPhase 3
Study to improve fertility in men after spinal cord injury
This phase 3 study tests a treatment to improve reproductive function (fertility-related measures) in men who have had a traumatic spinal cord injury. If you may be eligible, it could help researchers see whether the treatment improves reproductive outcomes for men with spinal cord injury.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06130449RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testosterone and brain function in men with spinal cord injury
This study tests whether testosterone can help brain function in men with spinal cord injury and low testosterone. If you qualify, you would receive testosterone treatment and have your brain activity measured over about a month.
The Bronx, New YorkAges 18–80 - NCT06521723Recruiting
Low oxygen therapy to improve walking after spinal cord injury
This study tests whether breathing low-oxygen air (a treatment called AIH) combined with spinal stimulation can help people with chronic spinal cord injury walk better. It may improve your walking speed and endurance.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18–80 - NCT07171489Recruiting
Wearable device for bowel control after spinal cord injury
This trial tests a wearable device that uses mild electrical pulses to help manage bowel function in people with spinal cord injury. It aims to improve control and quality of life.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 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 - 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+ - NCT07293780Recruiting
TMS for nerve pain after spinal cord injury
This trial tests whether transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), a non-invasive brain stimulation, can help relieve nerve pain in people with spinal cord injury. It is for those who have had chronic nerve pain for at least 6 months that hasn't improved with standard treatments.
Ankara, YenimahalleAges 18–65 - NCT07357428Recruiting
Brain-computer implant study for severe paralysis or speech loss
This study tests a brain-computer implant that might help people with severe paralysis or speech loss control a computer with their thoughts. It is for people who have trouble moving and speaking due to a progressive disease or injury.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 22–75 - 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 - NCT06795451RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Spinal stimulation for depression: a clinical trial
This study tests if a non-invasive spinal stimulation device can improve depression symptoms. It is for people currently taking an antidepressant for at least 8 weeks but still experiencing depression.
Mason, OhioAges 18–60 - NCT07401186Recruiting
Stimulation to Improve Sensory Pathways in the Brain and Spine
This study tests whether using electrical stimulation during neck surgery can help improve how the brain and spinal cord process sensory information. It may offer new ways to help people with stroke-related weakness.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 21–75

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for spinal cord stimulation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 252 recruiting spinal cord stimulation 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 stimulation 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 stimulation 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.
