Effect of Custom Dynamic Orthoses on Forefoot Loading
NCT06710119 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The proposed study is designed to evaluate how foot loading changes during initial accommodation to a carbon fiber custom dynamic orthosis (CDO), after targeted training with or without visual feedback of foot loading, and after take-home use of the CDO. This study will quantify initial offloading associated with CDO use and determine if visual feedback of foot loading and additional take-home use of the CDO can further reduce forces, as orthotists work to provide CDOs to patients.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06710119
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06710119 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 60 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is University of Iowa, which has 156 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Lower Extremity Injuries appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Visual Feedback is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06710119 reports 2 study locations spanning 2 distinct geographic areas — top geographies include Iowa, Washington. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll. Verify current status, eligibility criteria, and contact details directly at ClinicalTrials.gov, and discuss any participation decision with your own healthcare provider.
