Robotic exoskeleton for walking after stroke
This trial tests a robotic exoskeleton (Atalante) to help people who have had a stroke and have trouble walking. It looks at whether using the device early (1–4 months after stroke) can improve the ability to walk again.
CréteilAges 18 years+ - NCT06972355Recruiting
Treadmill walking with hidden vision for stroke rehab
This trial tests if walking on a treadmill with a screen that hides vision can help people recovering from a stroke improve their balance and mobility. It is for people who had a stroke less than 6 months ago and can already walk a little with support.
MetzAges 18 years+ - NCT07822633Recruiting
Arm movement learning after stroke
This trial looks at how the brain and arm work together after a stroke, comparing people who have had a recent stroke, people who had a stroke a while ago, and healthy people. It involves three sessions of movement tasks and may include an MRI scan. It could help understand how to improve therapy for stroke recovery.
Yvoir, NamurAges 40–90 - NCT07742020Recruiting
Movement therapy comparison for stroke recovery
This study compares two rehabilitation techniques to help people who have had a stroke regain movement in their arm or leg. It aims to find which method works better for improving daily function during the recovery phase.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 45–65 - NCT06749002Recruiting
Functional training for turning after stroke
This trial tests whether adding functional muscle training to turning-specific exercises helps people who have had a stroke turn more easily. It may benefit those who can walk with supervision and have no major memory or other neurological problems.
Islamabad, Punjab ProvinceAges 45–60 - NCT07228754Recruiting
Stroke caregiver expectations study
This study looks at how realistic caregivers' expectations are for people recovering from a stroke, within the first 6 months. It may help understand what caregivers need to know to better support their loved one.
Ankara, YenimahalleAges 18–75 - NCT06906588Recruiting
Robot arm therapy for arm recovery after stroke
This study tests if using a robot to help with arm exercises can improve arm movement in people who had a stroke less than 6 months ago. The therapy is for the weaker arm and aims to help you regain strength and control.
Cassino, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT07253870Recruiting
Nerve stimulation for subacute stroke recovery
This study compares two types of nerve stimulation (one on the ear, one on the neck) to see which helps upper limb movement better in people who had a stroke 3–6 months ago. It may help improve arm and hand function.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 45–70 - NCT06797154Recruiting
Stroke recovery study: wrist sensor to boost arm use

Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–85 - NCT05760846Recruiting
Training hand skills after a recent stroke
This study looks at a therapy that helps people with a recent stroke relearn coordinated hand and arm movements. It compares how well motor skill learning works and may help improve functional use of the affected arm.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 55 recruiting subacute stroke 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 subacute stroke 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 subacute stroke 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.
