Brain Fluid Markers in Stroke and Alzheimer's Disease
This study examines special proteins in cerebrospinal fluid (the fluid around your brain and spinal cord) to better understand ischemic stroke and Alzheimer's disease. Researchers hope these markers will help predict outcomes and guide future treatments.
Beijing, None SelectedAges 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+ - NCT06121336Recruiting
Tracking a blood marker to measure stroke recovery
This study is looking at a protein in the blood called brain-derived tau, which may increase after a stroke. By measuring it over time, doctors hope to learn more about how the brain is healing and possibly predict recovery.
Munich, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT07111559RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing clot-busting drug versus two blood thinners for small stroke
This study tests whether a clot-busting drug (rt-PA) or a combination of two blood thinners (DAPT) works better for people having a small stroke caused by a blocked tiny artery in the brain. It aims to find the safest and most effective treatment within the first few hours after symptoms start.
ChūōAges 18 years+ - NCT04078373Recruiting
Rehab study of bladder problems after recent stroke
This trial looks at urinary (bladder) problems in people who are in the early recovery phase after a stroke, while they receive inpatient rehabilitation. It may help improve how bladder issues are managed during rehab after stroke.
LjubljanaAges Any age - NCT06658197RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing a new clot-busting drug for severe stroke
This study tests a medication called tenecteplase, given before a procedure to remove a large blood clot in the brain. It may help people who have had a severe stroke within the last 4.5 hours.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06394180Recruiting
Study of perforations during clot removal for stroke
This trial looks at what happens when a hole (perforation) occurs in a brain artery during clot removal for stroke. It compares patients who had this complication to those who did not, to understand how to better manage it.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT06548971RecruitingPhase 3
Early antiplatelet after clot-busting for stroke (TREND-IVT)
This trial tests whether giving an antiplatelet medicine (like aspirin) early—within 3 hours of a clot-busting drug—can help prevent another stroke without causing bleeding. It is for people who still have moderate to severe stroke symptoms after the clot-buster and do not have a large artery blockage.
Bengbu, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT06696703Recruiting
Human urinary kallidinogenase for acute ischemic stroke
This trial tests whether a medicine called human urinary kallidinogenase can reduce inflammation after a stroke. It may help people who have had a first or recent stroke and have certain levels of disability.
Harbin, HeilongjiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06823466Recruiting
Stroke study for patients on blood thinners
