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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 a targeted exercise program can slow or correct spine curvature in adolescents with mild idiopathic scoliosis. Sixty teens aged 10-17 with curves between 10-25 degrees will do three one-hour sessions per week for 12 weeks. Researchers will measure changes in spine angle, rotation, and balance using X-rays and 3D imaging.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Scoliosis-specific exercise program
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a non-surgical way to manage mild scoliosis and prevent curves from worsening in teens.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 60 participants. The exercises may not stop curve progression, and results may not apply to all types of scoliosis.

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

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.

The inclusion criteria will be: * Adolescents of both sexes with an age range between 10-17 years. * They were diagnosed with Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis by an orthopedic specialist, confirmed through (loaded) X- rays. * They have mild non-structural scoliosis with Cobb's angle measurement of between 10 and 25 degrees * They have Single major thoracolumbar curve located between T6-7 to L1-2, apex at T12 or L1. * They have good health conditions except for scoliosis. * They can understand and communicate with no mental abnormalities. The exclusion criteria will be: * Adolescents with cerebral palsy or other degenerative neurological disorders; * Participants with nutritional disorders e.g. diabetes or vascular disorders. * Participants with a scoliotic curve with angle \> 25° will be excluded. * Participants will be excluded from this study if they have inflexible spinal deformities interfering with spinal mobility, * Participants who were subjected to any corrective surgery to their spine within the previous two years. * Participants will be also excluded if their skin were sensitive or inflamed to any materials used. * Participants who have seizures, perceptual disorders, visual problems, and auditory deficits * Participants who have leg length discrepancy * Participants who have scoliosis developed as a consequence of traumatic scoliosis.
