Recruiting studies
- NCT05983757Recruiting
Clot retrieval for smaller brain artery strokes
This trial tests if removing clots from smaller arteries in the brain (not the main ones) helps people who had a stroke and can't get standard clot-busting medicine. It compares clot removal to usual care for strokes caused by these medium-sized vessel blockages.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07047014RecruitingPhase 3
Tenecteplase for medium vessel occlusion stroke (ARTS trial)
This trial tests the clot-busting drug tenecteplase in people who had a stroke 4.5 to 24 hours ago due to a medium-sized artery blockage. It aims to see if this medication can improve outcomes without needing a procedure to remove the clot.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07185022Recruiting
Clot-busting drug through artery for medium-vessel stroke
This trial tests a clot-busting drug given directly into the arteries of the brain for people who have had a stroke due to a blockage in a medium-sized artery. It aims to see if this treatment can help improve recovery when started up to 72 hours after symptoms begin.
Fuyang, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT07302854RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Clot-busting medicine for medium vessel strokes
This trial tests a new clot-busting medicine called tenecteplase, given directly into the blood vessel in the brain, to treat strokes caused by a blockage in a medium-sized artery. The goal is to see if it can help restore blood flow and reduce disability, especially for patients who can be treated within 24 hours of stroke onset.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07323368Recruiting
Perfusion-guided stroke treatment for medium artery blockages
This trial tests a new way to treat strokes caused by blockages in medium-sized brain arteries within 24 hours of symptom onset. It uses brain imaging to select patients who might benefit from a procedure to remove the clot.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07347587Recruiting
Finding the right blocked artery in stroke using CT scans
This study looks at how well different CT scans can identify which artery is blocked in people having a stroke. It may help doctors choose the best treatment faster.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07357987RecruitingPhase 3
Stroke treatment with tenecteplase via artery
This trial tests a clot-busting drug called tenecteplase given directly into the brain artery for people having a moderate stroke caused by a blockage in a medium-sized blood vessel. The goal is to see if it helps improve recovery when given within 24 hours of stroke symptoms starting.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07137832RecruitingPhase 3
Testing clot-busting drug during stroke treatment for medium vessel blockages
This trial tests whether giving a clot-dissolving medication directly into the brain's blood vessels during a standard procedure (mechanical thrombectomy) can improve outcomes for people with a stroke caused by a blockage in a medium-sized artery. It may be an option for patients who arrive at the hospital within 24 hours of symptom onset and have enough salvageable brain tissue.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07746947Recruiting
Stroke treatment study for medium-sized vessel blockages
This study looks at how well a procedure to remove blood clots from medium-sized brain arteries works for people who have had a severe stroke. It may help improve recovery by treating blockages that are not in the largest arteries.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18–85 - NCT05779215Recruiting
Registry for acute stroke with blocked brain arteries
This study records information about people who have a new acute ischemic stroke caused by a blockage in a larger or medium-sized brain artery. It may help doctors better understand outcomes and care for this stroke type, using data from many patients.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT06146790Recruiting
Endovascular treatment for strokes in smaller brain arteries
This trial tests a minimally invasive procedure to remove blood clots from smaller arteries deep inside the brain. It may help people with moderate to severe stroke symptoms who can be treated within 24 hours of symptom onset.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT06559436Recruiting
Extending window for clot-busting drug in medium vessel stroke
This trial tests a clot-dissolving drug called tenecteplase given 4.5 to 24 hours after a stroke caused by a blockage in a medium-sized brain artery. It aims to see if waiting longer than usual still helps reduce disability.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT07357285Recruiting
Stroke treatment trial for smaller vessel blockages
This trial tests a new catheter device to remove blood clots from smaller brain arteries in people having a stroke. It aims to see if the device is safe and effective for patients treated within 24 hours of symptoms starting.
BonnAges 18 years+ - NCT07375966RecruitingPhase 2
Repeated clot-busting drug for stroke with large vessel block
This trial tests if giving a second dose of the clot-busting drug tenecteplase can help people whose stroke symptoms don't improve after the first dose, when a large or medium artery in the brain is still blocked. It may be an option for patients who cannot have a mechanical clot removal procedure.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–80 - NCT07550296RecruitingPhase 2
Second IV Clot-Dissolving Treatment for Major Stroke
This trial tests giving a second dose of an IV clot-dissolving medicine (prourokinase) to patients who had a stroke from a large clot but didn't improve enough after the first dose. The goal is to see if a second dose within 6 hours of stroke onset can help more patients recover.
Shenyang, None SelectedAges 18–80 - NCT06370182Recruiting
New catheter for clot removal in disabling stroke
This trial tests a new catheter device (ANA Funnel) for removing large blood clots from the brain in people having a disabling stroke. The goal is to see if it safely removes clots better than standard treatment.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 22–85 - NCT07174505Recruiting
Study of the CONDA Stent Retriever for stroke patients
This trial tests a device called the CONDA Stent Retriever to remove blood clots in people having a severe stroke caused by a blockage in a large brain artery. It may help if you can be treated within 24 hours of symptoms starting and meet specific brain scan and health criteria.
BudapestAges 18–85 - 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 - NCT06702787Enrolling by invitation
Mechanical thrombectomy for stroke in the Middle East and North Africa
This study collects information from people who had a stroke from a blocked brain artery and were treated with mechanical thrombectomy (a procedure to remove the clot). The goal is to understand how well this treatment works in the Middle East and North Africa.
Alexandria, Alexandria GovernorateAges Any age - NCT06125236Recruiting
Stroke study for large artery blockages in Southwest China
This study is collecting information from people in Southwest China who have had a stroke caused by a blocked large or medium artery. The goal is to learn more about these strokes and how to treat them better.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for medium vessel occlusion?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 20 recruiting medium vessel occlusion 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 medium vessel occlusion 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 medium vessel occlusion 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.
