Recruiting studies
- NCT01459107RecruitingPhase 2
Upper arm transplant study using immune treatment
This trial tests replacing a missing or non-working lower arm/hand with a donated upper limb (transplant). It also uses a special immune treatment plan and bone marrow infusion to help the body accept the new limb, aiming to improve hand function and quality of life.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–69 - NCT07520032Recruiting
Shockwave therapy for arm function after stroke
This trial tests whether a non-invasive shockwave treatment can help improve arm movement and strength in people who had their first stroke within the past 6 months. The goal is to see if this therapy reduces stiffness and helps patients regain better use of their arm.
Ajman, Ajman EmirateAges 18–65 - 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 - NCT07720609Recruiting
Home versus clinic therapy for arm function after stroke
This trial compares video-based therapy at home to in-clinic therapy for improving arm and hand movement in people who have had a stroke more than six months ago. It may help you regain function in your affected arm.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 35–75 - NCT07619703Recruiting
Stroke Recovery Program Combining Therapy and Brain Stimulation
This study tests whether combining a hand-therapy program (CIMT) with mild electrical brain stimulation (tDCS) helps women recover hand function and quality of life after a stroke. You would attend therapy sessions over several weeks while receiving non-invasive brain stimulation to help rewire your brain's movement control.
Temuco, AraucaniaAges 30–85 - NCT07273201Recruiting
Comparing two arm exercises after stroke
This study tests two different types of arm exercises to see which one helps improve arm function better during early stroke recovery. It is for people who recently had a stroke on one side of their brain and are in the early stages of recovery.
CairoAges 50–60 - NCT04032990Enrolling by invitation
Testing a skin-based nerve stimulation for kids’ arm function
This trial studies whether a painless, skin-based treatment (stimulation over the spine) is safe and feasible to improve arm and hand function in children with a spinal cord injury. It’s mainly designed to see if the approach can be done safely and whether it may help upper-limb skills.
Louisville, KentuckyAges 4–18 - NCT07834333Recruiting
Brain stimulation to help arm and leg recovery after stroke
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called theta burst stimulation to see if it can improve arm and leg function in people who recently had a stroke. It may help with movement recovery in the first few months after stroke.
Ankara, YenimahalleAges 45 years+ - NCT07366697Recruiting
Using wrist sensors to measure daily arm use after stroke
This study tests whether wearing small activity monitors on both wrists for 3 days can better measure how stroke affects daily two-handed tasks. It aims to improve understanding of real-world arm function.
LeuvenAges 18–80 - NCT07404761Recruiting
Moving your arm after stroke or TBI
This study tests a device that uses mild electrical pulses and augmented reality (a computer overlay on real life) to help people who have arm or hand weakness after a recent stroke or brain injury regain movement.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for upper extremity function?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 82 recruiting upper extremity function 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 upper extremity function 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 upper extremity function 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.
