What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only This study
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This study tests a new device that helps stroke survivors improve their walking. The device uses mechanical support and sound cues to guide natural walking patterns. The trial will enroll 40 adults who have had a stroke and can walk without help. The goal is to see if the device improves gait symmetry, speed, and step length.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
NDT Gait Training System (device)
What this could lead to
If successful, this device could offer a more effective and less physically demanding way for stroke survivors to improve their walking ability.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 40 participants, so results may not apply to all stroke survivors. The device may not provide significant improvement over standard therapy.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 40 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

May 2024

Expected to finish

Dec 2026

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age ≥ 20 years, first-ever stroke, with Brunnstrom stage III to IV of the affected lower limb motor recovery. * Functional Ambulation Category (FAC) level IV. * Ability to ambulate on level ground without assistive devices. * Ability to understand instructions and cooperate with assessments. Exclusion Criteria: * Presence of severe spinal cord injury or peripheral neuropathy. * Unstable gait requiring assistive devices, or participants at high risk of falling. * Severe impairment in vision, hearing, or cognition, making them unable to comply with assessments. * Lower limb fracture within the past 6 months.
