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

Completed This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This study tested a 6-week program that combines home exercises with fun, game-like balance activities (like stepping on colored circles and Twister-inspired moves) for people with multiple sclerosis. Thirty participants were split into two groups: both did home exercises, but one group also had weekly supervised balance training. Researchers measured balance, mobility, fear of falling, and walking ability before and after the program.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Combined Otago-based and game-inspired balance training program
What this could lead to
If successful, this program could offer a simple, home-based way to improve balance and reduce falls in people with multiple sclerosis.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to everyone with MS. The program requires weekly supervised sessions, which may not be practical for all.
