Implantable brain-computer interface for motor recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests a new brain-computer interface device that is implanted in the brain to help people with paralysis or limb loss move again. It aims to see if the device is safe and works well for motor rehabilitation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old.
- You have severe weakness or paralysis in your arms or legs, or you have lost both arms.
- Your condition (like spinal cord injury, brainstem stroke, ALS, or similar) has been stable for at least 6 months, and you were diagnosed at least a year ago.
- You have normal thinking, hearing, and vision (glasses or contacts are fine).
- You have a caregiver who can help you regularly.
- You can have brain surgery and anesthesia safely (no serious health issues or metal implants that could interfere).

This trial tests a brain-computer interface (BCI) that is implanted by a robot. It is designed to help people who have lost the ability to speak clearly or use their hands well, due to conditions like ALS, stroke, or spinal cord injury.
This trial tests a brain-computer interface (a device that lets you control a computer with your thoughts) that is implanted by a robot. It is for people with severe paralysis who may benefit from a new way to communicate or control devices.
This trial tests a surgically implanted brain device designed to help people with severe paralysis or movement disorders regain the ability to communicate and control their limbs. The device reads signals from your brain and translates them into commands that could help you interact with computers or assistive technology.
This clinical trial tests a brain-computer interface (a small device implanted in the brain) that may help people with severe paralysis control external devices like a computer or tablet using only their thoughts. The study is for adults with paralysis from a spinal cord injury or ALS, and requires a stable caregiver.
This study tests a brain implant that lets you control external devices like a computer or tablet just by thinking. It is for people with paralysis or severe weakness in both arms due to conditions like spinal cord injury, ALS, or stroke.
This trial tests a brain implant that lets you control external devices using your thoughts. It's for people with limited arm function due to spinal cord injury, stroke, ALS, or similar conditions.
