Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - 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 - NCT07163299Enrolling by invitationPhase 1/Phase 2
Cooling artery treatment with magnesium for stroke clot removal
This trial tests adding a cooled magnesium solution directly into the brain artery during standard clot removal to see if it helps limit brain damage and improve recovery. The magnesium and cooling aim to protect brain tissue while the clot is being taken out.
Xuzhou, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT07047326Recruiting
Urokinase for acute ischemic stroke within 6 hours
This trial tests whether the clot-busting drug urokinase can help people who have had an ischemic stroke (a stroke caused by a blood clot). The goal is to dissolve the clot and improve recovery, as long as treatment starts within 6 hours of the first symptoms.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07026318Recruiting
Combining clot removal and tirofiban for stroke
This trial tests adding the anti-clotting drug tirofiban to standard clot removal for people who have a stroke due to a narrowed artery in the brain. The goal is to see if this combination improves outcomes without raising bleeding risk.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07026331Recruiting
Balloon angioplasty vs stenting after stroke treatment
This study compares two ways to keep a brain artery open after a stroke when it remains narrowed after initial treatment. It aims to reduce the risk of another stroke by improving blood flow.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07001267Recruiting
Comparing two anesthetics for stroke procedure recovery
This trial tests whether a sedative given through an IV or a gas you breathe affects recovery after surgery to remove a blood clot in the brain. It may help find the best way to keep you comfortable during the procedure to improve how well you do after three months.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06956521RecruitingPhase 1
Magnesium during clot removal for severe stroke
This trial tests whether giving magnesium directly into the artery during mechanical thrombectomy (a procedure to remove a blood clot from the brain) improves recovery after a severe ischemic stroke. Magnesium may help protect brain cells from further damage after the clot is removed.
Houston, TexasAges 21–95 - NCT06857487RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing an herb formula to prevent early stroke worsening
This study tests a traditional Chinese herb formula called Qingre Huatan to see if it can stop stroke symptoms from getting worse in the first few days. It is for people who have had an ischemic stroke within the last 48 hours and are at high risk for early decline.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06853535RecruitingPhase 3
Personalized antiplatelet therapy after stroke or TIA
This study tests whether guiding antiplatelet medication with a blood test can help prevent another stroke or TIA. It looks at people who have had a mild stroke or high-risk TIA within the last 48 hours.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18 years+ - NCT06052969Recruiting
Pulse NanoMED MicroBeads after clot removal for stroke
This trial tests a new treatment called Pulse NanoMED MicroBeads for people who still have a blocked brain artery after a standard clot removal procedure (mechanical thrombectomy). The goal is to see if these tiny beads can clear the remaining blockage and improve blood flow to the brain.
Columbia, South CarolinaAges 18–85 - NCT06639360Recruiting
Magnetic stimulation after clot removal for stroke recovery
This trial tests whether adding magnetic brain stimulation (TMS) after clot-removal surgery can help people recover better from a stroke. It is for people who had a moderate-to-severe stroke in the front part of the brain and had the clot removed.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–80 - NCT06440707RecruitingPhase 2
Brain stimulation for recent stroke recovery
This trial tests a safe, non-invasive brain stimulation technique called tDCS to help people recover from a recent stroke. It's for people who cannot have the standard clot-removal procedure and who can start treatment within 24 hours of their stroke.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06297863RecruitingPhase 2
Head-down position to improve blood flow in stroke
This study tests whether lying with your head tilted down 15 degrees can improve blood flow to the brain during a stroke. It is for people who have a clot in the middle cerebral artery and are already getting a procedure to remove the clot.
AvezzanoAges 18 years+ - NCT06045156Recruiting
Tirofiban after clot-busting for stroke
This trial tests whether giving tirofiban (a blood thinner) shortly after the standard clot-busting drug tenecteplase can improve recovery from a moderate stroke. It is for people who have had a stroke within the last few hours and do not have certain risk factors like irregular heart rhythm or recent bleeding.

Tirofiban soon after tenecteplase for acute stroke flare
This trial tests whether starting tirofiban soon after tenecteplase can improve outcomes for people whose stroke symptoms temporarily get worse after treatment. It aims to see if the added medicine can reduce harmful clot-related changes after initial thrombolysis.
Chuzhou, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT05051397RecruitingPhase 2
Breathing gas study during clot removal for stroke
This Phase 2 trial tests whether changing breathing gas (CO₂ level) during a mechanical procedure to remove a brain blood clot can improve outcomes for acute ischemic stroke. It may help by protecting the brain during the clot-removal procedure under general anesthesia.
Clermont-FerrandAges 18 years+ - NCT04171856Recruiting
Robotic training to improve movement after stroke
This study tests a robotic rehabilitation program to help improve arm movement after an acute or chronic stroke (and separately studies people with transient global amnesia). It may help by measuring how well patients can learn and control movement during repeated robot-guided sessions.
