This trial tests whether a medicine called human urinary kallidinogenase can reduce inflammation after a stroke. It may help people who have had a first or recent stroke and have certain levels of disability.
Harbin, HeilongjiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06995625RecruitingPhase 1
Stem cell particles for recent stroke recovery
This trial tests whether stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles can help people recover after a moderate to severe stroke. You may join if you had a stroke in the last 5 days and still have arm or leg weakness, even after standard treatments like clot-busting drugs or clot removal.
Suwon, Gyeonggi-doAges 19 years+ - NCT06710028Recruiting
Using AI to improve stroke recovery
This trial tests if an artificial intelligence system can help improve outcomes for people who have had a stroke. If you have had an acute ischemic stroke, you may be able to join and help doctors learn if AI can guide better care.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT06712004RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new stroke drug: different doses for people who cannot get standard care
This trial tests a new medication (bevifibatide) to see which dose works best for people having an ischemic stroke who cannot get standard treatments like clot-busting drugs or a procedure to remove the clot. It aims to improve recovery by stopping clots from getting worse.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT06726941Recruiting
Exercise and gene changes in stroke recovery
