Movement and health study for paralysis
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Immune system & allergy, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study is looking at ways to improve movement and health for people with paralysis from conditions like spinal cord injury, stroke, traumatic brain injury, or multiple sclerosis. It involves exercises and may include electrical stimulation to help your leg and trunk muscles work better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have paralysis from a spinal cord injury, stroke, traumatic brain injury, or multiple sclerosis affecting your trunk or legs (and you are not on a ventilator)
- It has been at least 6 months since your injury or diagnosis
- You are not pregnant, do not have a pacemaker or defibrillator, and do not have serious health problems that would make the study unsafe

This early-stage study tests whether regular, skin-based electrical stimulation can help people with paralysis or weakness regain movement. You would attend frequent clinic sessions for months, while the team checks your ability to follow instructions and your safety.
This trial tests if a smart spinal cord stimulation device can improve leg movement in people with incomplete spinal cord injury. The device adjusts stimulation in real time to help you walk better.
This trial will test a self-balancing personal exoskeleton for people with spinal cord injuries. It may help you walk again and improve your mobility.
This study uses special motion-tracking tools to measure balance and trunk control in people with first-time stroke, Parkinson’s, or multiple sclerosis. It aims to understand how these conditions affect stability, which could help tailor rehabilitation.
This study tests a new way to help people with spinal cord injury improve their walking. If you have some ankle movement but still need support to walk, you may be able to join.
This trial tests an advanced device that helps control and use your legs and trunk muscles for movement. It may help people with certain types of paralysis or weakness to improve function, while closely monitoring safety and comfort.
