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

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 trial tests whether a six-month program of high-intensity exercise delivered through an immersive virtual reality headset can improve mobility, strength, and thinking skills in people with multiple sclerosis (MS). Participants will be randomly assigned to either the VR exercise program or standard rehabilitation. The study measures changes in disability, walking speed, hand dexterity, cognitive processing, and fatigue to see if this novel approach is safe and beneficial.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
A supervised virtual reality exercise program using an immersive VR headset
What this could lead to
If effective, this approach could offer an engaging, safe way for people with MS to improve physical function and quality of life.
What could go wrong
The trial is small (30 participants) and early, so results may not apply broadly. VR may cause discomfort or dizziness in some users.
