This trial tests a new gene therapy called EG110A for people with overactive bladders due to spinal cord injury. It aims to reduce urinary incontinence and may offer an option if other treatments haven't worked well.
Downey, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT06775925Recruiting
Robot-assisted vs. standard arm therapy for spinal cord injury
This trial compares robot-assisted arm therapy with standard occupational therapy to see which helps people with a recent cervical spinal cord injury regain hand and arm function better. You may be eligible if you are in early rehab and have limited use of your arms or hands.
Nottwil, Canton of LucerneAges 18 years+ - NCT06654804RecruitingPhase 4
Contrast ultrasound for acute spinal cord injury
This trial tests if a contrast dye used with ultrasound can help treat recent spinal cord injuries. You may qualify if you had a spinal cord injury less than 24 hours ago and need surgery to fix the spine.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT06672458Recruiting
Electrical stimulation to help arm and hand function after spinal cord injury
This trial uses a non-invasive device called MyndMove to apply small electrical pulses to the arm muscles, helping to improve movement after a spinal cord or nerve injury. It may be an option for people who still have some connection between their brain and arm muscles.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–70 - NCT06677229RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Safety and effectiveness of TZ-161 for spinal cord injury
This trial tests a new medicine called TZ-161 in people who have recently had a spinal cord injury in the chest area. The goal is to see if it is safe and can help improve movement.
CórdobaAges 18–65 - NCT06688916Recruiting
Body awareness after spinal cord injury
This study examines how people with spinal cord injury experience their body and sense of self. You will answer questionnaires and may have an MRI scan of your brain while parts of your body are touched, to see how your brain reacts.
Nottwil, Canton of LucerneAges 18–65 - NCT04936620Recruiting
Surgery for severe neck spinal cord injury with uncontrolled swelling
This trial studies a specific surgical technique (called duroplasty) for people with a severe neck spinal cord injury who have dangerous swelling that is not controlled. The goal is to see if this approach can improve outcomes after emergency surgery done soon after the injury.
InnsbruckAges 16 years+ - NCT06176833Recruiting
Walking therapy early after spinal cord injury
This study tests a special walking program for people who have recently had a spinal cord injury. The goal is to help you recover as much walking ability as possible.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 16–75 - NCT05142943Recruiting
Virtual reality to improve arm function after spinal cord injury
This study tests whether a virtual reality program that creates a feeling of body ownership can help improve arm and hand movement in people who have an incomplete spinal cord injury in the neck. It aims to find a new, engaging way to boost recovery.
Valencia, ValenciaAges 18–99 - NCT06520020Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation for spinal cord injury
This study tests whether a gentle electrical stimulation applied to the skin over the spine can be safely used for people with spinal cord injury. If you have had a surgery to stabilize your spine, this stimulation could help with recovery.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18–80 - NCT06733025Recruiting
Comparing surgery and Botox for arm spasticity
This trial compares two treatments—Botox injections or surgery—for arm and hand spasticity after a stroke, brain injury, or spinal cord injury. It may help you decide which option works best for you.
MölndalAges 18 years+ - NCT06772077Recruiting
Testing a walking robot for kids with spinal cord injury
This study tests a wearable robotic exoskeleton called ATLAS 2030 to help children with a spinal cord injury practice standing and walking. The goal is to see if it is safe and easy to use.
ToledoAges 3–14 - NCT06773286Recruiting
Stimulation and therapy for hand function after spinal cord injury
This trial is testing a safe method of electrical stimulation through the skin (called transcutaneous stimulation) combined with physical therapy to help people who recently had a cervical spinal cord injury improve hand and arm function. It is designed for people who are still in the hospital rehab setting.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18–75 - NCT06782464Recruiting
Freezing nerves for shoulder pain after stroke or brain injury
This trial tests if freezing certain nerves in the upper arm (cryoneurolysis) works as well as standard care for reducing shoulder pain and muscle tightness after a stroke or brain injury. It aims to improve function and ease caregiving tasks.
LuxembourgAges 18 years+ - NCT06828653Recruiting
Comparing 3D-printed vs standard ankle braces for walking
This study compares custom-made ankle-foot braces made with a digital 3D printing method versus the traditional plaster cast method. It aims to find out which type is more comfortable and effective for people with conditions like cerebral palsy, stroke, or spinal cord injury who need a brace to help them walk better.
Mississauga, OntarioAges 8 years+ - NCT06839300Recruiting
Blood biomarkers in spinal cord injury study
This study is looking for people with a spinal cord injury from a blunt force (not a penetrating injury like a gunshot or stab wound) to see if certain substances in the blood (called biomarkers) can help doctors understand the injury better and predict recovery. It involves an initial blood sample within 24 hours of the injury and follow-up assessments.

- Are there clinical trials for traumatic spinal cord injury?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 180 recruiting traumatic spinal cord injury 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 traumatic spinal cord injury 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 traumatic spinal cord injury 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.
