Recruiting studies
- NCT06677970RecruitingPhase 3
Blood Pressure Control After Stroke Thrombectomy
This trial tests whether carefully lowering blood pressure after a mechanical clot removal procedure for stroke can improve outcomes. If you've had a large vessel stroke that was successfully treated with thrombectomy, this study will help guide blood pressure management in the recovery period.
Seoul, SeoulAges 20 years+ - NCT06705023RecruitingPhase 2
Fat-derived cell therapy for heart failure
This study tests whether taking a small amount of your own belly fat (through liposuction), processing it, and injecting the cells back into your heart can improve heart function in people with chronic heart failure due to blocked arteries. The trial is for patients whose heart pumps weakly (ejection fraction of 40% or less) and who are already on standard medications.
AstanaAges 21–80 - NCT06758609Recruiting
Brain cooling plus clot removal for large artery stroke
This trial tests a new treatment that combines cooling the brain with a catheter and removing the clot to restore blood flow — for people who have had a major stroke in the front part of the brain within the last 24 hours.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–85 - NCT06920303Recruiting
Comparing two tests for stroke diagnosis
This trial compares a non-invasive ultrasound test (Transcranial Colour Coded Duplex) to a CT angiography scan for diagnosing stroke. It may help find a simpler and safer way to assess strokes and transient ischemic attacks (mini-strokes).
SohagAges Any age - NCT06990867RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Improving blood flow recovery after stroke
This trial tests a new approach to restore blood flow in the brain after a stroke. It aims to improve recovery and brain function in people with a blocked large artery.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 18–90 - NCT07141303RecruitingPhase 3
Steroid after stroke clot removal for anterior circulation large vessel occlusion
This trial tests if giving a steroid (methylprednisolone) directly into the brain artery after successful clot removal improves recovery. It is for people who had a large stroke in the front part of the brain and got the clot out within 24 hours.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–80 - NCT07282041RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
A study on dulaglutide for brain artery narrowing after stroke
This trial tests if a once-weekly injection called dulaglutide (Trulicity) helps people with severe narrowing of a major brain artery after a minor stroke or TIA. The goal is to improve blood flow and reduce the risk of another stroke.
SingaporeAges 21–80 - NCT07302854RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Clot-busting medicine for medium vessel strokes
This trial tests a new clot-busting medicine called tenecteplase, given directly into the blood vessel in the brain, to treat strokes caused by a blockage in a medium-sized artery. The goal is to see if it can help restore blood flow and reduce disability, especially for patients who can be treated within 24 hours of stroke onset.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07371455RecruitingPhase 1
LWP779 safety trial for healthy volunteers
This trial tests a new oral medication called LWP779 in healthy adults to see if it is safe and how the body processes it. It helps determine the right dose for future studies.
AdelaideAges 18–65 - NCT07534319Recruiting
Brain Blood Flow Changes After Stroke Clot Removal
This study examines how blood flow in the brain changes after a minimally invasive procedure to remove a blood clot during an acute stroke. The research uses MRI imaging to understand brain recovery patterns and may help improve stroke treatment outcomes.
Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT07594314RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Minocycline after stroke clot removal surgery
This trial tests whether minocycline, an antibiotic, can reduce brain damage when given after successful clot removal surgery for acute stroke. The goal is to see if this medication helps patients recover better.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07594301RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Minocycline after successful stroke clot removal in the back brain
This study tests whether an antibiotic called minocycline can reduce brain damage after doctors successfully remove a blood clot from the back of the brain (posterior circulation stroke) using a catheter procedure. The drug may help protect brain tissue and improve recovery.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07635758RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem Cell Treatment for Recent Stroke Recovery
This trial tests whether special cells from human placenta can help your brain recover after a recent stroke. The treatment is given as an injection and aims to reduce long-term disability.
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT06374667Recruiting
Skull bone injection vs. IV for large stroke
This trial tests a new way to give medicine for a large stroke on one side of the brain. The medicine is injected into the skull bone instead of through a vein, and researchers want to see if it works better and is safe.
Wuhu, AnhuiAges 18–80 - NCT07016854Recruiting
Early treatment for blocked carotid artery stroke
This trial tests whether early treatment (using a catheter to open the blocked artery) can help people with a stroke caused by a blockage in the internal carotid artery. The goal is to improve recovery and reduce disability.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06223529Recruiting
Music therapy for arm weakness after stroke
This study tests whether listening to music can help improve arm movement after a stroke. You will have EEG brain scans during music sessions to see how your brain responds.
Bedford, BedfordshireAges 18–110 - NCT07738978Recruiting
Movement and health study for paralysis
This study is looking at ways to improve movement and health for people with paralysis from conditions like spinal cord injury, stroke, traumatic brain injury, or multiple sclerosis. It involves exercises and may include electrical stimulation to help your leg and trunk muscles work better.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06748703Recruiting
Optic nerve injury in obstructive sleep apnea patients
This study looks at whether sleep apnea affects the optic nerve, which connects your eye to your brain. It is for people newly diagnosed with sleep apnea who have not yet received treatment.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT05315726Recruiting
Vibration therapy to reduce stiffness after stroke
This trial studies whether regular muscle vibration can reduce post-stroke muscle stiffness and improve how the brain and nerves adapt. If you’re in the right stage after stroke, it may help improve arm and hand movement.
Chalon-sur-SaôneAges 18 years+ - NCT05347069RecruitingPhase 4
Aspirin study for people with stable heart artery disease
This trial tests whether daily aspirin is safe and effective for people who have stable (chronic) coronary artery disease but cannot have procedures to open blocked arteries. It may help reduce future heart problems, while also checking for side effects and risks from aspirin.
KyotoAges 20 years+ - NCT07597031Recruiting
Digital Lifestyle Platform for People Leaving Hospital Rehab
This study tests whether a smartphone or tablet app can help people stay healthy and active after leaving rehabilitation. The app guides you through daily activities and healthy habits to support your recovery at home.
Bern, Canton of BernAges 18 years+ - NCT07149714Recruiting
Heart pump support for high-risk angioplasty
This trial tests the iVAC 2L device, a temporary heart pump placed in the main artery, to help patients who need a high-risk angioplasty (PCI) because of a very narrowed or blocked coronary artery. The goal is to prevent the heart from failing during the procedure.
MoscowAges 18 years+ - NCT05945212Recruiting
Vibration therapy to help leg recovery after subacute stroke
This study tests whether a program using local vibrations on the muscles in the front of your ankle can improve leg nerve and movement recovery after stroke. It may help people who have weak ankle lifting during the weeks to months after stroke.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chronic ischemic stroke?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 143 recruiting chronic ischemic stroke 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 chronic ischemic stroke 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 chronic ischemic stroke 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.
