Recruiting studies
- NCT05281055Recruiting
Registry of clot-removal treatment for sudden large-vessel strokes

Study of eye changes after ischemic stroke
This trial looks at how changes in the retina (the light-sensing tissue in the back of the eye) track with vision and eye function after an ischemic stroke. The goal is to understand which eye changes are linked to the stroke, which could help doctors monitor recovery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT05561088Recruiting
Head acupuncture after stroke clot removal
This trial studies whether doing head acupuncture after a procedure to remove a stroke-causing blood clot can improve recovery and safety. You may be considered if you had endovascular clot removal within 24 hours and meet specific brain-scan and stroke-severity measures.

Brest stroke and clot registry for local adults
This study is a population registry that records information from people in a specific area of Brest who had certain types of brain blood vessel events. It helps researchers understand how these conditions happen in the real world and may improve future care planning.
BrestAges 15 years+ - NCT05024292Recruiting
Alliance study for acute stroke after clot removal

Zhangzhou, FujianAges 18–95 - NCT05494034Recruiting
Monitoring heart rhythms after stroke to guide care
This study uses a small implantable heart monitor to track heart rhythm in people after an acute ischemic stroke or TIA. It aims to learn how often hidden heart rhythm problems show up, which could help doctors choose better stroke prevention treatments.
AthensAges 40–100 - NCT06148285Recruiting
Hyperbaric oxygen for ischemic stroke recovery
This study tests whether hyperbaric oxygen therapy (breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber) can help people recover after a recent ischemic stroke. It is open to stroke survivors admitted to Touro's inpatient rehab unit.
New Orleans, LouisianaAges 18 years+ - NCT07860333Recruiting
Moving after stroke treatment
This trial tests whether starting mobilization earlier after a stroke procedure improves recovery. It may help patients get moving sooner and regain function faster.
TampereAges 18 years+ - NCT06401564Recruiting
Virtual reality rehab after ischemic stroke
This study tests whether using virtual reality (VR) exercises in the hospital can help people recover arm movement and function after an ischemic stroke. You may be a candidate if you have weakness in one arm and can follow directions.
Stony Brook, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07828210RecruitingPhase 4
Mild to moderate stroke recovery study
This study tests a daily supplement called NeuroAiD to see if it helps people recover after a mild or moderate stroke. It looks at how well patients feel and function in their daily life during recovery.
Ho Chi Minh CityAges 18–80 - NCT06584565Recruiting
Predicting stroke recovery and risk using blood and stool tests
This study uses advanced analysis of your blood and stool samples to better predict how you will recover from a stroke and whether it might happen again. It aims to help doctors personalize your care after a stroke.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07731087Recruiting
Stem cell secretion therapy for thinking recovery after stroke
This study tests whether a therapy made from stem cell secretions can help improve memory and thinking after an ischemic stroke. It is for people who had a clot-related stroke in the past 3 months and now have mild to moderate cognitive issues.
Makassar, South SulawesiAges 40–75 - NCT07687706RecruitingPhase 3
Tegoprazan to prevent stomach problems after stroke
This study tests a stomach-protecting medicine called tegoprazan for people who have had a stroke and are starting antiplatelet therapy. It aims to prevent stomach complications like ulcers or bleeding.
Busan, BusanAges 19 years+ - NCT07649135Recruiting
Remote Step-Counting Program for Stroke Recovery
This study tests whether a remote (at-home) program that tracks your daily steps and includes support from someone you know can help you become more physically active after a stroke. Researchers want to see if this approach is practical and if it helps people who had a stroke 6+ months ago move more.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT07624396Recruiting
Brain protein levels and heart-related strokes
This study looks at a brain protein called BDNF in people who've had a stroke caused by a clot from the heart. Researchers want to understand if BDNF levels can help explain why some strokes happen this way and may help doctors prevent future strokes.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT07575984RecruitingPhase 4
Mexidol Safety and Efficacy for Acute Ischemic Stroke
This trial tests whether Mexidol, a medication that may protect brain tissue, can help people recover better after an acute ischemic stroke (a type of stroke caused by a blood clot). The study includes stroke patients and healthy volunteers to understand how the drug works and if it's safe.
ArkhangelskAges 18–90 - NCT07556887Recruiting
Using IMPROVE to Choose Carotid Artery Treatment After Stroke
This study tests whether a new tool called IMPROVE helps doctors decide if you need surgery or a stent to clear a narrowed carotid artery (a major neck blood vessel) after a recent stroke or mini-stroke. The goal is to better predict which patients will benefit most from this treatment.
Arnhem, GelderlandAges 18 years+ - NCT06753006Recruiting
Research on stroke rehabilitation for arm weakness
This study tests a new rehabilitation program for people who have had a stroke within the last 6 months. It focuses on improving arm weakness using special therapy techniques.
Samara, Samara OblastAges 18–80 - NCT04956185Recruiting
Collecting hospital data from people with stroke
This study collects information from people admitted to the stroke care team or neurology during their hospital stay. It may help improve stroke care by understanding patient conditions and hospital experiences.
Ghent, FlandersAges Any age - NCT07456956Recruiting
Exercise comparison for muscle loss after stroke
This trial compares two types of leg exercise programs (high-intensity vs. moderate-intensity interval training) to see which better helps rebuild muscle strength and function in people who have had a stroke within the past 1 to 6 months.
Istanbul, AtaşehirAges 18–80 - NCT07406971RecruitingPhase 2
Capsaicin nose spray for acute stroke

Aguascalientes, AguascalientesAges 18 years+ - NCT07405762Recruiting
Stroke recovery after blood clot removal: brain blood flow study
This trial looks at how blood flow and brain activity change in the first days after a stroke caused by a large blockage in the front part of the brain. It tests if certain patterns can help predict recovery after a procedure to remove the clot.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ischemic stroke?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 555 recruiting 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 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 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.
