NCT ID NCT07550699
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is testing a robotic lower-limb exoskeleton combined with functional electrical stimulation (FES) to help people with conditions like spinal cord injury, brain injury, or multiple sclerosis improve their walking. The device provides robotic support and electrical stimulation to activate muscles during gait training. The trial will enroll 15 participants and focus on safety, ease of use, and basic performance measures like steps taken and distance walked.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
ABLE Exoskeleton with Functional Electrical Stimulation (ABLE FES)
What this could lead to
If successful, this device could offer a new way to improve walking ability and rehabilitation outcomes for people with neurological conditions.
What could go wrong
This is a very small early-stage study (15 people) focused on safety and performance, not proof of effectiveness. The device may not work for everyone or may cause discomfort.
