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+ - NCT07769814Recruiting
Better CT imaging for brain stent checkups
This study looks at whether a new type of CT scanner can take clearer pictures of stents in the brain. The goal is to help doctors see if the stent is working well after it's been placed.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 5–90 - NCT07740018Recruiting
Stroke treatment study for blocked brain arteries
This study looks at how well a procedure to remove blood clots from blocked brain arteries works for people who have had a stroke. It aims to see what factors help people recover better, which could help guide treatment decisions.
SohagAges 18–80 - NCT06629116Recruiting
Albumin treatment for large strokes after thrombectomy
This trial tests if giving a protein called albumin after a large stroke can improve recovery. Albumin may help reduce brain swelling and damage. You may qualify if you had a large stroke in the front part of the brain, got a clot-removal procedure, and meet certain age and health criteria.
Zhangzhou, FujianAges 18–80 - NCT07713537Recruiting
Stroke risk score for AF patients on blood thinners
This study is testing a new scoring system to predict stroke risk in people with atrial fibrillation who are taking DOAC blood thinners. The goal is to help doctors personalize treatment and prevent blood clots.
Barcelona, BarcelonaAges Any age - 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 - NCT06646601Recruiting
Garden-based program for heart and stroke recovery
This trial tests a preventive program that uses a therapeutic garden to help people with heart or blood vessel conditions. It looks at whether patients find the program helpful and easy to take part in.
GapAges 18 years+ - NCT06668649Recruiting
Polish fatigue scale study for MS, ALS, or stroke
This study tests a Polish version of a scale that measures how tired people feel. It's for people with MS, ALS, or stroke, or healthy volunteers.
Krakow, Lesser Poland VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT07654634Enrolling by invitation
Precision blood thinning therapy study
This trial tests personalized blood thinner treatment for people who need long-term anticoagulation for conditions like atrial fibrillation or blood clots. The goal is to find the safest and most effective dose for each patient.
Changsha, HunanAges 8 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 - NCT07626450Recruiting
Hyperbaric oxygen after stroke clot removal treatment
This study tests whether hyperbaric oxygen therapy (breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber) can help recovery after emergency clot-removal surgery for large blood vessel strokes. The goal is to see if extra oxygen can reduce brain damage and improve outcomes.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07592962Recruiting
Long-term Health Study of Lishui City Residents
This study follows healthy adults in Lishui City over time to understand how people stay healthy and live longer. Researchers will collect health information and track your wellbeing to identify factors that contribute to a long, healthy life.
Lishui, ZhejiangAges 30–80 - 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+ - 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+ - NCT06473272Recruiting
Ultrasound to study neck artery plaques and predict risk
This study uses different ultrasound techniques to look at plaques in the neck artery and predict future heart or stroke events. It may help doctors understand which plaques are more dangerous.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 40–100 - NCT07566598Recruiting
Brain Blood Flow Measurement After Stroke Treatment
This study measures how well blood flows through the brain after a special procedure to remove a blood clot causing stroke. Researchers use a tiny temperature sensor to understand blood circulation, which may help improve stroke care.
Nice, Alpes-maritimesAges 18–80 - NCT07555977Recruiting
Clot removal methods for acute ischemic stroke
This trial compares two ways of removing a blood clot from a large artery in the brain during an ischemic stroke. It might help you by finding out which method restores blood flow more safely and effectively.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07552610Recruiting
Sivelestat sodium added to clot removal surgery for stroke
This trial tests whether adding a medication called sivelestat sodium to emergency clot removal surgery (mechanical thrombectomy) can improve outcomes in patients with a specific type of stroke caused by a large blood clot in the front part of the brain. The goal is to see if this combination treatment leads to better recovery.
Weifang, ShandongAges 18–80 - NCT06559475Recruiting
Testing a new aspiration catheter for large vessel stroke
This trial tests a new catheter (Super-Bore 8/7F) to remove blood clots in people having a major stroke caused by a blocked large artery in the brain. The goal is to see if it is safe and effective at restoring blood flow when used within 24 hours of stroke symptoms starting.

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.
