We’re tracking 19 recruiting stroke, acute studies with a site in Texas — including Phase 1/Phase 2, Phase 2, Phase 2/Phase 3 and Phase 3 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT05065216RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study drug for acute ischemic stroke started within 24 hours
This trial tests whether an investigational study drug can improve outcomes after an acute ischemic stroke (a stroke caused by blocked blood flow). You may be eligible if you are able to start treatment quickly after symptom onset and have a moderate stroke severity on a standard stroke exam.
Houston, TexasAges 18–90 - NCT05691244RecruitingPhase 3
Tested drug for acute ischemic stroke within 24 hours
This Phase 3 trial studies sovateltide (and a placebo) in adults with an ischemic stroke, aiming to improve safety and outcomes. It focuses on people who can start treatment quickly after stroke symptoms begin and who do not have bleeding in the brain on imaging.
Houston, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT05911568Recruiting
Clot-removal treatment for stroke patients with existing disability
This trial studies whether an endovascular (catheter-based) procedure to treat a certain type of blocked artery can improve outcomes for people who already had trouble functioning before their stroke. You may be considered if your stroke is confirmed early and your scans show the right type and location of blockage.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06569121Recruiting
Telehealth weight-loss program for stroke survivors
This trial tests a 12-week telehealth group program to help people who have had a stroke lose weight and live healthier. You'll join video group meetings with a coach and other stroke survivors to learn about eating well and being active.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–85 - NCT07430917RecruitingPhase 2
Testing J147 for recent stroke from blocked artery
This trial tests a new drug, J147, for people who recently had a stroke caused by a blocked artery and have already had a procedure to reopen that artery. It aims to see if the drug can improve recovery.
Austin, TexasAges 18–90 - NCT07392450RecruitingPhase 2
Study of TAK-755 for adults with acute ischemic stroke
This trial tests if TAK-755 can help people who have had a moderate to severe stroke within the last 24 hours. It aims to see if the drug can improve recovery by protecting brain tissue that is still salvageable.
Cypress, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05338697Recruiting
Early testing after stroke to predict recovery outcomes
This study checks early brain and arm/hand signals soon after a stroke to better predict how well people recover by about 90 days. It may help future, better-targeted stroke recovery studies by improving how recovery chances are measured early.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07599904Recruiting
Real-world study of Medtronic stroke treatment devices
This registry tracks how Medtronic's FDA-approved devices work in treating acute ischemic stroke (a type of stroke caused by a blood clot) in everyday clinical practice. Researchers collect information to understand device safety and effectiveness outside of formal clinical trials.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06226805RecruitingPhase 2
Testing BB-031 for recent ischemic stroke
This study tests an experimental drug called BB-031 to see if it can safely help people who have had a recent ischemic stroke (a clot that blocks blood flow to the brain). The trial is for people who can get to the hospital within 24 hours of their first symptoms and have a moderate to severe stroke.
Harlingen, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07491952Recruiting
Continuous Dual Aspiration for Stroke With Zoom System
This trial tests a new way to remove blood clots from the brain using the Zoom System with a continuous double-suction technique (CDAT). It aims to see how well this approach works for people having a stroke caused by a large vessel blockage.
Kingwood, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06825897Recruiting
Direct to angiography suite for stroke clot removal
This trial compares two ways to treat severe stroke patients with a large vessel blockage. One way is the standard approach of first imaging you and then deciding. The other way takes you directly to the angiography suite for immediate clot removal by the doctor. The goal is to see if this faster, direct approach helps you get better results.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05611242RecruitingPhase 3
Thrombectomy for acute stroke caused by blocked neck and brain arteries
This Phase 3 trial studies whether removing a clot using a catheter (endovascular thrombectomy) works better for certain types of acute ischemic stroke. It focuses on people with a blocked neck artery plus a blockage in the brain, and who can’t get or didn’t respond to IV clot-busting medicine.
Edinburg, TexasAges 18–79 - NCT07085390Recruiting
Comparing two catheters for stroke clot removal
This study compares two types of catheters (thin tubes) used during a stroke procedure to remove a blood clot. The goal is to see which one works better for clearing blockages in large blood vessels in the brain.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06404268RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Helping stroke survivors regain ankle movement with exercise
This study tests whether gentle leg exercises can help people recovering from a recent stroke. The focus is on improving ankle movement and strength on the weak side.
Houston, TexasAges 30–85 - NCT06483165Enrolling by invitation
F.A.S.T. and BE FAST stroke signs study
This study asks the public to share how well they know the warning signs of stroke (using the F.A.S.T. or BE FAST mnemonic). It may help improve stroke awareness and save lives.
Dallas, TexasAges 19 years+ - NCT06029491Recruiting
Studying a new suction device for stroke treatment
This trial tests a new device that removes blood clots in the brain using suction. It is for people having a large-vessel ischemic stroke who can be treated within 8 hours of symptoms starting.
Harlingen, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT07115940Recruiting
Clot removal after 24 hours for stroke patients
This trial tests if removing a large blood clot from the brain up to 3 days after a stroke improves recovery compared to standard medical care alone. It is for patients who have a severe stroke and are otherwise healthy enough for the procedure.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–85 - NCT06990867RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Improving blood flow recovery after stroke
This trial tests a new approach to restore blood flow in the brain after a stroke. It aims to improve recovery and brain function in people with a blocked large artery.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–90 - NCT06402968Recruiting
Clevidipine for treating high blood pressure after a brain bleed
This trial tests a blood pressure medicine called clevidipine given through an IV to people with a brain bleed (intracerebral hemorrhage). The goal is to see if quickly lowering blood pressure helps prevent more bleeding and improve recovery.

What taking part in a stroke, acute study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
