This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.
This study will evaluate the effects of combining motor learning-based therapy with use of the MyoPro , a wearable exoskeletal myoelectrically controlled orthotic device. MyoPro uses electromyographic (EMG) signals from the weak muscles to assist movement of the user's affected arm. The primary objective of this randomized controlled trial is to study the efficacy of using MyoPro in motor learning-based therapy for individuals with chronic stroke (\>6 months post) with severe upper limb motor deficits (Fugl-Meyer for Upper Limb score less than 30) compared with a similar dose of motor learning-based therapy alone. The secondary objectives are to evaluate neuroplasticity mechanisms, identify biomarkers of greater response to the intervention, and explore cost-effectiveness.

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.
