Bio Leg: Advancing Mobility (BAM)
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests a new prosthetic leg designed to help people with above-knee amputations walk better. It may be a good fit if you already use a C-leg and can walk with a single point cane.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 40 and 70 years old.
- You have a single leg amputation above the knee (transfemoral) that happened more than one year ago.
- You are an active walker (K3 or K4 level) and can walk with no more help than a single point cane.
- You have used a microprocessor-controlled C-leg for more than six months.
- You are willing and able to give consent.
Quick eligibility check
Answer a few plain-language questions, based on this study's own requirements, to get a preliminary sense of fit.

This study tests a new type of bionic leg that can adjust to different walking speeds and activities. You may be able to join if you are a healthy adult or an adult with a leg amputation who can walk well.
This study tests whether a new prosthetic foot can help people with a lower-limb amputation walk better. You will use your current foot and the new foot, and we will measure how well you walk.
This study tests whether a microprocessor-controlled knee can reduce falls in people who walk limited distances. If you use a regular mechanical knee and have a moderate activity level, this trial might help you walk more safely.
This study looks at how a powered (motorized) prosthetic knee joint affects walking in people with one above-knee amputation. It aims to find out if the powered knee makes walking easier or more natural.
This study looks at how people with a leg amputation change the way they walk to make up for lost function. It may help improve rehabilitation and prosthetic care.
This study tests a high-tech powered knee and foot for people who have a leg amputation above the knee and have (or are candidates for) a bone-anchored implant. The goal is to see if the powered prosthesis helps with walking and daily activities.
