Recruiting studies
- NCT06715007Recruiting
Study on blood thinners and artery health for small vessel stroke
This study tests whether a combination of antiplatelet drugs and artery-stabilizing medication can improve recovery after a small stroke caused by damage to tiny blood vessels in the brain. It may help prevent further strokes and support healing.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 30–79 - NCT06722677Recruiting
Vagus nerve stimulation plus rehab for arm strength after stroke
This trial tests whether pairing vagus nerve stimulation with rehabilitation exercises can improve arm function after a stroke. It may help if your stroke was from a clot and you still have weakness in one arm.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 22–80 - NCT06726941Recruiting
Exercise and gene changes in stroke recovery
This study looks at how exercise affects certain genes and chemical changes in the body for people who have had a stroke. It may help find new ways to improve recovery after a stroke.
AfyonkarahisarAges 25–70 - NCT06727006Recruiting
Rescue stenting and clot-dissolving medicine for severe stroke
This trial tests whether using a stent plus a clot-dissolving drug can improve outcomes for people with a large-vessel stroke who are having a procedure to remove the clot. It is designed for patients who can receive treatment within 24 hours of their first symptoms.
Bergamo, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT06727097Recruiting
Post-Stroke Sensory Reweighting on Walking and Balance
This study is for people who have had their first stroke and are now recovering. It looks at how your brain uses different senses—like vision and touch—to help you walk and keep your balance. The goal is to find better ways to improve your walking and balance after a stroke.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06730464Recruiting
Predicting dangerous heart rhythms in non-ischemic heart disease
This study uses heart MRI scans to predict who might develop dangerous heart rhythms. It's for people with certain types of non-ischemic heart disease who have already had an MRI with contrast.
Milan, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT06733246Recruiting
Ceretrieve Device for acute ischemic stroke treatment
This study tests a new device called Ceretrieve that is designed to remove blood clots from large arteries in the brain for people having a severe ischemic stroke. If you are eligible, you will receive the device treatment (a mechanical thrombectomy) within 24 hours of your first symptoms.
HeidelbergAges 18 years+ - NCT06735898Recruiting
A combined therapy for recovery after intensive care
This trial tests a combination of CYTOFLAVIN (given as an IV and later as a pill) to help people with long-term symptoms after spending time in the ICU. It aims to improve muscle weakness, breathing, swallowing, and energy levels during later stages of rehabilitation.
Yekaterinburg, Sverdlovsk OblastAges 18 years+ - NCT06737549RecruitingPhase 4
Electroacupuncture and NGF for swallowing problems after stroke
This study tests whether a specific type of electroacupuncture (a gentle needle therapy with mild electrical pulses) plus a nerve growth factor injection can help people who have trouble swallowing after a recent stroke. The goal is to see if this combination improves swallowing function better than standard care.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–80 - NCT06738381Recruiting
Digital prevention program after heart attack or stroke
This trial tests a digital program (using a smartphone or tablet) to help prevent another heart attack or stroke. It is for people who have already had a heart-related event or have known artery plaque buildup.
Drammen, BuskerudAges 18 years+ - NCT06741332Recruiting
AI software to speed up stroke clot removal referrals
This trial tests whether a special AI software can help doctors speed up the process of referring patients with acute stroke for a procedure that removes a blood clot (thrombectomy). If you have stroke symptoms and a recent CT scan, the AI may help identify if you could benefit from this treatment.
Granollers, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06746532RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Breast milk nose drops for brain injury in newborns
This trial tests whether giving fresh breast milk as nose drops can help newborns with brain injury from lack of oxygen. It aims to see if this simple treatment can improve brain recovery.
BudapestAges Up to 2 days - NCT06747429Recruiting
High-fat diet for heart failure metabolism
This trial tests whether a high-fat diet can help change how your heart uses energy, potentially improving heart function in people with non-ischemic heart failure.
ParisAges 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 - NCT06749106Recruiting
Using MRI to find bleeding in neck artery plaque
This study uses MRI scans that are already done as part of your stroke care to look for bleeding inside plaque in the neck arteries. The goal is to see if this bleeding can help predict stroke risk.
MunichAges 18 years+ - NCT06749834RecruitingPhase 3
Clot-busting drug after stroke in people on newer blood thinners
This trial tests whether a clot-busting medication given through a vein (intravenous thrombolysis) can safely treat acute ischemic stroke within 24 hours in people who have taken a newer oral blood thinner (NOAC) within the last 4 to 48 hours.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06752720RecruitingPhase 2
Stem cell therapy for chronic stroke patients
This trial tests whether a patient's own stem cells can be safely injected into the brain to help recovery after a stroke. It is for people who had an ischemic stroke 6 months to 5 years ago and still have moderate to severe symptoms.
Sapporo, HokkaidoAges 20–70 - NCT06757764RecruitingPhase 4
Stroke from artery narrowing: testing combination of anti-platelet drugs
This trial tests whether a combination of two or three anti-platelet medicines (like aspirin, clopidogrel, or cilostazol) is safe and works better than one alone for people who had a stroke from a narrowed artery. The goal is to prevent another stroke.
Seoul, Songpa-guAges 20 years+ - 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 - NCT06763458Recruiting
Balloon angioplasty for minor unstable stroke with brain artery narrowing
This trial tests if balloon angioplasty (opening a narrowed artery with a tiny balloon) can help people who have had a minor stroke and are still having symptoms despite taking blood thinners.
ShenyangAges 18 years+ - NCT06775028Recruiting
Integrated care for older adults with atrial fibrillation
This trial is testing a new approach to care for older adults with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) who also have other health conditions. It aims to see if a more integrated, team-based care plan helps improve their overall health and quality of life.
HaskovoAges 65 years+ - NCT06806397Recruiting
Brain imaging study of arm weakness after stroke
This study uses a light-based brain scanner (fNIRS) to understand how stroke affects arm movement. It may help find new ways to improve rehab.
MoscowAges 35–70 - NCT06813651RecruitingPhase 2
TBO-309 for stroke with tandem blockage
This trial tests whether adding TBO-309 to standard treatment helps people having a stroke caused by two blockages (one in the neck, one in the brain). It may limit brain damage and improve recovery.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ischemic?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 829 recruiting ischemic 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 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 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.
