What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
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 Results may not be published yet.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

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests a wearable device called the Cionic Neural Sleeve that uses mild electrical pulses to help leg muscles contract at the right time during walking. Fourteen people with multiple sclerosis will wear the sleeve for six weeks and also do a walking program. Researchers will measure changes in walking speed, perceived walking ability, disability, and daily activity levels.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Cionic Neural Sleeve (a wearable device that uses electrical stimulation to help leg muscles contract at the right time during walking)
What this could lead to
If it works, this device could offer a non-drug way to improve walking and reduce falls for people with multiple sclerosis.
What could go wrong
This is a very small early study with only 14 people, so results may not apply to everyone. The device may be uncomfortable or not help all users.

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

Inclusion Criteria: * Persons with relapsing-remitting or progressive forms of MS between the ages of 22 and 75 * Ability to ambulate at least 15 minutes throughout the day for five days per week, with or without assistive device * Adequate cognitive and communicative function as assessed via Telephone Interview for Cognitive Status (TICS) to identify persons with dementia * Able to tolerate the Neural Sleeve device for up to 8 hours per day * T25FWT time between 8 and 45 seconds * No recent change in medication or recent exacerbation of symptoms over the last 60 days * Patient-determined Disease Steps score between 3 and 5 or EDSS score between 4 and 6.5 Exclusion Criteria: * Lower motor neuron disease or injury (e.g. peripheral neuropathy) that may impair response to stimulation * Absent sensation in the impacted or more impacted leg * Inadequate response to stimulation, defined by inability to achieve muscle contraction or unable to tolerate stimulation * Inability to ambulate with the sleeve in place of an ankle foot orthosis (AFO)/knee ankle foot orthosis (KAFO) if utilized * History of falls greater than once a week * No use of FES devices in the past year * Demand-type cardiac pacemaker or defibrillator * Malignant tumor in the impacted or more impacted leg * Existing thrombosis in the impacted or more impacted leg * Fracture or dislocation in the impacted or more impacted leg that could be adversely affected by motion from stimulation
