Xeomin to improve walking after stroke
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests Xeomin (a type of botulinum toxin) to improve walking and leg mobility after stroke-related muscle stiffness. It’s for people who have spasticity (tight, stiff muscles) that affects how they clear their toes during walking.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have spasticity (stiff/tight muscles) and weakness on one side due to a past stroke
- You have not had surgery on your lower leg/leg before
- You can walk at least 10 meters (about 33 feet) without another person helping and without a walking device
- When you take steps, your toes clear the ground during the swing phase without braces or supports
- You have not had any botulinum toxin injections in the past 4 months

This study looks at how botulinum toxin (botox) injections affect the muscles, tendons, and nerves in the lower leg of people who have had a stroke and have a tight, twisted foot (equinovarus). It aims to understand these changes to improve future treatments.
This trial tests a new approach to improve walking in people who have lasting stiffness after a stroke. It aims to help you walk more naturally and with less effort.
This study tests a new way to manage muscle stiffness (spasticity) after a stroke. It aims to make treatment more efficient and help patients recover movement.
This trial studies whether assisted walking training with an exoskeleton can improve recovery after stroke, especially for walking and daily function. You may be offered therapy once you are medically stable, able to stand, and able to participate safely.
This trial studies whether a non-surgical electrical treatment to the spinal area can improve walking and leg control after a stroke. It’s for people who have had a single stroke and still need hands-on support to walk.
This study tests a wearable robot (exoskeleton) that helps you walk better after a stroke. You might benefit if you can already walk on your own but want to improve your walking ability.
