Read the detailed description

Studying in a RCT the changes in everyday llife activities of children with CP (unilateral and bilateral) during HABIT-ILE or control period, changes being scored by parents and by experts on ABILHAND-Kids, the PEDI, the ACTIVLM-CP and the COPM. Investigate neuroplastic changes and correlation with everyday life changes.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in activity measure (questionnaires)

    change in a measure of daily activities through ABILHAND-Kids, ACTIVLIM-CP and the COPM

    Measured: 2 weeks of intervention and 4 months (follow-up)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. neuroplastic changes in the cortex (MRI, fMRI, DTI, TMS)

    measure of neuroplastic changes through TMS and MRI

    Measured: baseline and 2 weeks of intervention

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing HABIT-ILE in people with Cerebral Palsy, run by Université Catholique de Louvain at 1 site in Belgium.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Belgium. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in activity measure (questionnaires) (time frame: 2 weeks of intervention and 4 months (follow-up)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02667613, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Dec 2020.
