Robotic leg device for walking assistance
This trial tests a new lower-limb exoskeleton (a wearable robot) designed to help people walk more easily. Although the device may be useful for stroke survivors, this early-phase study is enrolling healthy volunteers without neurological conditions to safely evaluate the device's performance.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 70 years old.
- You need to be able to walk for 2 hours without using a cane, walker, or other assistive device.
- You cannot have a history of stroke, spinal cord injury, or other neurological condition.
- You must not have serious heart, bone, or joint conditions that could make walking or wearing the device risky.
- You cannot have skin allergies, irritation, or open wounds on your legs or torso.
- You must not be pregnant, a prisoner, or have cognitive impairments that would prevent giving informed consent.

This trial tests a soft robotic suit (WIM Exosuit) to help people walk better. It may be an option if you have had a stroke, have Parkinson's or multiple sclerosis, or are an older adult without a neurological condition.
This study tests a wearable robotic leg brace that helps people with leg weakness practice walking. It aims to see if using the robot improves strength and movement for people recovering from stroke, spinal cord injury, or joint replacement surgery.
This study tests a self-balancing robotic exoskeleton device designed to help people with spinal cord injuries stand and walk. Researchers will assess whether the device improves mobility and quality of life over nine visits to a research center.
This trial tests whether early, robot-assisted walking training can help people recovering from a stroke improve their ability to walk. It uses a wearable robotic exoskeleton to support your body and guide your legs during practice.
This trial tests a wearable robotic device for the ankles that helps you walk on a treadmill. The researchers want to see if the device can estimate and improve how you walk.
This trial tests a wearable robotic exoskeleton called EXPLORER that helps people with muscle or nerve conditions walk better. It aims to see if the device is safe and easy to use, and it may improve your mobility.
