All subjects completed the study. No adverse events were noted. Walking speed in the 10MWT test increased from 32.5 s (± 24.5 s) at T1 to 27.5 s (± 21.4 s) at T2, without significance. Slight, but non-significant improvements were detected in the 6MWT, GMFM and pROM. Confounding factors did not significantly affect the results. Conclusion: Intensive therapy including HAL training leads to non-significant improvements. Further studies with more patients and longer intervention time could provide further insights into the RAGT therapy of adult patients with CP. Registration DRKS-ID: DRKS00020275.
