NCT ID NCT06585943

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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 whether forced aerobic exercise (using a bike that helps move your legs) can improve arm and leg recovery after a stroke better than traditional therapy. About 66 people who had a stroke 3-9 months ago will take part. Researchers will also check if this approach is cost-effective and how it affects the brain.

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 66 people

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

Started

Expected to finish

Apr 2029

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.

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

Sixty-six individuals with chronic stroke able to provide informed consent who meet the following criteria for inclusion will be recruited from the Cleveland Clinic: 1. 3-9 months following single ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke confirmed with neuroimaging (ie: first-time stroke) 2. Fugl-Meyer motor score 19-55 in the involved UE 3. Fugl-Meyer score \<34 in the involved LE demonstrating residual hemiparesis 4. Ambulatory ≥ 20 meters with no more than contact guard assistance 5. 18-85 years of age Exclusion criteria include: 1. hospitalization for myocardial infarction, heart failure or heart surgery within 3 months 2. cardiac arrhythmia 3. hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 4. history of multiple strokes 5. actively undergoing physical or occupational therapy or enrolled in another interventional study 6. severe aortic stenosis 7. untreated deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolus 8. unstable angina 9. uncontrolled hypertension 10. implanted pacemaker or defibrillator 11. dyspnea at rest 12. clinically significant neurologic condition/diagnosis other than stroke 13. recent history of elicit drug or alcohol misuse or significant mental health illness 14. significant contractures 15. anti-spasticity injection within 3 months of enrollment 16. skull hardware (e.g. screws/plates) or prior craniotomies that could shunt current flow altering EEG measures 17. other contraindication to exercise or EEGs
