NCT ID NCT07461259
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is testing a robotic exoskeleton called TWIICE Rise to see if it is safe and practical for people with spinal cord injury to use for walking. The trial involves 15 participants and will take place in clinics, homes, and community settings. The goal is to assess how well the device works and if any problems arise, not yet to prove it improves health.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- TWIICE Rise robotic exoskeleton
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that the TWIICE Rise exoskeleton is a safe and practical way for people with spinal cord injury to walk in daily life.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very small, early pilot study with only 15 people. It focuses on safety and feasibility, not on proving health benefits. The device may not work for everyone or may have technical issues.
