It's for those with a large artery blockage but still enough brain tissue that can be saved.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06143488Recruiting
Clot removal vs. best medicine for mild stroke with large vessel blockage
This trial tests whether removing a blood clot from a large brain artery is better than standard medical care for people who have a mild stroke (NIHSS score 2-5) but still have symptoms like trouble speaking, weakness, or confusion. It is for patients who can be treated within 24 hours of their last known well time.
Wuhu, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT06559241RecruitingPhase 3
Arm or leg cuff treatment for large clot stroke recovery
This trial tests whether a simple, non-invasive treatment (repeated inflation of a blood pressure cuff on your arm or leg) can help people recover better after a stroke caused by a large clot. You must be having a mechanical thrombectomy (clot removal) within 24 hours of your stroke.
Suzhou, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT07749170Recruiting
Stroke treatment for blockages in smaller brain arteries
This study looks at how well a special catheter system works to remove blood clots from smaller arteries in the brain after a stroke. It aims to see if this treatment helps people recover better.
Knoxville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05578300Recruiting
Translating thrombectomy care into real-world practice in Asia-Pacific
This study aims to help endovascular thrombectomy for certain severe strokes work well in everyday hospital care across Asia-Pacific. You may be considered if you’re an adult with a specific type of stroke blocked in a major brain blood vessel.
Linyi, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT06139692RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing light sedation during clot removal for stroke
This study compares two types of light sedation (medication to help you relax) during a procedure to remove a blood clot in the brain after a stroke. The goal is to find which sedation method helps patients recover better.
Nanjing, None SelectedAges 18 years+ - NCT06403267RecruitingPhase 2
Testing NoNO-42 for moderate to severe ischemic stroke
This study tests a new drug called NoNO-42 for people having a moderate to severe ischemic stroke. You can join if you get clot-busting medicine within 4.5 hours of your stroke and may also have a procedure to remove the clot.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18–90 - NCT06545591Recruiting
Predicting stroke treatment success with a blood test
This trial studies a blood marker called sTREM to see if it can help predict outcomes after a mechanical clot removal procedure (endovascular thrombectomy) for large-vessel stroke. If you have had a stroke due to a large artery blockage within the last 24 hours and plan to have this procedure, you may be able to join.
Xuzhou, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06645405Recruiting
AI scan reading for stroke caused by large vessel blockage
This trial tests whether an AI program can better read CT scans to find large blood vessel blockages that cause stroke. If you had a stroke from a blocked large vessel and already had CT scans, the AI may help doctors decide on treatment faster.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–95 - NCT06665386Recruiting
Cooling infusion with clot removal for severe stroke
This study tests whether cooling the brain during clot removal (thrombectomy) can improve recovery after a severe stroke caused by a large blood vessel blockage. Researchers will use blood tests to find markers that may predict who benefits most.
Dalian, LiaoningAges 18–80 - 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+ - 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.
