Below are recruiting cerebral small vessel diseases clinical trials, each written for real people, not researchers. We’re tracking 34 recruiting studies, each written for real people, not researchers, below.
Recruiting studies
- NCT06416371Recruiting
Eye vessel leakage study for mild stroke survivors
This study uses eye scans to see if blood vessel leakage in the retina (back of the eye) is linked to small vessel disease in the brain after a mild stroke. It may help doctors better understand and monitor this condition.
EdinburghAges 18 years+ - NCT06164262Recruiting
Dementia risk study for people with small vessel disease
This study tracks people ages 30 to 60 who have signs of small vessel disease on brain MRI. It aims to understand the risk of dementia over the next 10 years, so you can get early monitoring and care.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 30–85 - NCT05967728Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Testing remote arm conditioning to protect the brain in stroke
This Phase 2 study tests whether a simple remote method that briefly reduces blood flow in the arm (called ischemic conditioning) can help people with brain small-vessel disease or an acute ischemic stroke. Participants are monitored by phone and, for stroke patients, through a Mobile Stroke Unit.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 55 years+ - NCT05703386Recruiting
Study MRI changes in small-vessel stroke disease
This study looks at how “small-vessel” changes in the brain develop after an ischemic stroke, using repeated MRI scans. It may help researchers better understand what causes these changes and how to track them over time.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05473637Recruiting
Study causes of small vessel brain disease in stroke and memory issues
This trial looks at people who may have “small vessel” problems in the brain, which can cause stroke, memory trouble, walking changes, movement symptoms, or headaches. It may help researchers better understand the genetic and non-genetic causes, which could improve future diagnosis and treatment.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT05356104RecruitingPhase 2
GLP-1 treatment to slow small blood-vessel brain damage
This Phase 2 study tests whether a GLP-1–like medicine can slow worsening “small vessel” disease changes in the brain and related walking and thinking problems. It aims to see if the treatment can prevent progression in people who already show early brain changes on MRI.
Wenzhou, ZhejiangAges 55–80 - NCT04753970RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study uses retina changes to assess blood vessel health
This study looks at the back of your eyes (the retina) to see if it reflects blood vessel health in the brain. It may help doctors find easier ways to track conditions related to small blood vessel disease.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05300997Recruiting
Test blood and antibody markers for suspected acute stroke
This study looks at blood tests to find signs of immune activity after a suspected stroke. It may help doctors diagnose stroke faster and better understand what is happening in the body soon after symptoms start.
Hong KongAges 18–100 - NCT07329647Recruiting
Brain nutrition study for cognitive decline
This trial tests whether a nitrate-rich food supplement can improve blood flow in the brain and help thinking and memory. It is for people with small vessel disease in the brain or diabetes who are at risk for cognitive decline.
CoimbraAges 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.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cerebral small vessel diseases?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 34 recruiting cerebral small vessel diseases studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a cerebral small vessel diseases trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a cerebral small vessel diseases trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
