Recruiting studies
- NCT05443633Recruiting
Brain and speech training for people with aphasia
This study looks at ways to improve language (speaking and understanding) for people with aphasia caused by stroke or dementia, using MRI to study brain function. It may help by testing language-focused approaches and how brain activity changes during treatment.

Care bundle study for brain bleed on CT scan
This trial is testing a set of standard care steps (a 'care bundle') for people who have a sudden brain bleed (intracerebral hemorrhage) that shows up on a CT scan. It aims to see if this bundle improves recovery and outcomes.
Oklahoma City, OklahomaAges 18 years+ - NCT00084292Recruiting
Registry for stroke in infants and children worldwide
This study collects information from children who have had a stroke or conditions that increase stroke risk. By joining this registry, your child's medical information helps doctors better understand and treat strokes in young patients.
Toronto, OntarioAges Up to 18 years - NCT06308952RecruitingPhase 4
Atorvastatin before flow diverter for brain aneurysms
This trial tests whether taking atorvastatin before a flow diverter procedure can prevent strokes or other brain events in people with unruptured brain aneurysms. It may help reduce complications from the treatment.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07728539Recruiting
Comparing a faster ablation method for atrial fibrillation
This study compares a newer, faster type of ablation (high-power short-duration) with the standard approach for treating atrial fibrillation. The goal is to see which method is safer and more effective at restoring a normal heart rhythm.
MoscowAges 18–70 - NCT05875116Recruiting
Virtual reality therapy for arm weakness after stroke
This trial tests whether virtual reality training plus a specific arm-movement approach helps people regain function after a stroke. It focuses on improving arm weakness on one side of the body during the early months after leaving the hospital.
Mexico CityAges 35–70 - NCT06253000Recruiting
Heat vs. Freezing for the Back of the Heart
This trial tests two ways to treat the back wall of the heart's left chamber in people with stubborn atrial fibrillation. It compares radiofrequency (heat) and cryoablation (freezing) to see which is safer and works better.
MoscowAges 18–80 - NCT06530134Recruiting
Driving awareness program for recent stroke patients
This trial tests a program to help stroke survivors become aware of their driving abilities. It may help you understand if you are ready to drive again after a stroke.
Ploemeur, Brittany RegionAges 18–85 - NCT06605014Recruiting
Body alignment after stroke or mini-stroke
This study looks at how a stroke or mini-stroke affects the body's natural movement and alignment (called somatic dysfunction). Researchers want to see if there are common patterns of tightness or imbalance after a stroke, which could help guide future treatments.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06711003Recruiting
Enhanced circulation therapy for recent stroke recovery
This trial tests whether a non-invasive treatment that boosts blood flow can help people recovering from a stroke. If you had a stroke within the last month and have moderate to moderately severe disability, you may be eligible to participate and potentially improve your recovery.
TaichungAges 20 years+ - NCT07178015Enrolling by invitation
Heart and stroke outcomes in people with silent carotid plaques
This study follows people who have carotid plaques (fatty deposits in neck arteries) that haven't caused symptoms yet. It aims to learn how these plaques affect future heart and brain health, like heart attacks or strokes.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT06954610Recruiting
Heart Check for Stroke Risk in Atrial Fibrillation
This trial uses heart imaging to better understand stroke risk in people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). It may help doctors decide on the best treatment to prevent another stroke.
BernAges 18 years+ - NCT05995600RecruitingPhase 4
Clopidogrel vs warfarin to prevent a second APS stroke
This study compares two types of blood thinners — clopidogrel (an antiplatelet) and warfarin — to prevent another stroke in people with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). It aims to find which medicine works better for people who have already had a stroke related to APS.
AnyangAges 19 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+ - NCT06418698Recruiting
Brain artery calcium and clot removal outcomes
This study looks at whether calcium buildup in brain arteries affects how well clot removal (mechanical thrombectomy) works for stroke patients. You may be able to join if you have a large artery blockage, a CT scan was done, and you are having the clot removal procedure.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06195501Recruiting
Swallowing after heart ultrasound in acute stroke: follow-up study
This study follows stroke patients who get a TEE (a heart ultrasound through the mouth) to see how often swallowing problems occur after the procedure. If you qualify, researchers will check your swallowing to better understand and manage any risks.
Giessen, HesseAges 18 years+ - NCT05853796Recruiting
Studying stroke warning signs in young adults
This observational study follows people ages 18–50 who had a first TIA (“mini-stroke”) or an acute ischemic stroke to better understand what happens after the event. It may help improve future care by tracking symptoms, imaging findings, and recovery over time.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges 18–50 - NCT06802159Recruiting
Rehabilitation methods for stroke-related neglect
This study tests different therapy methods to help people who have trouble paying attention to one side of the world after a stroke. It aims to find which approach works best for improving this 'neglect' and helping you get back to daily activities.
Moscow, MoscowAges 18–80 - NCT06962397Recruiting
Using touch to improve recovery after stroke
This study tests if using a special device to feel different textures can help improve hand and arm recovery in people who have had a stroke.
MoscowAges 18–80 - NCT05922540Recruiting
Study of ischemic stroke to improve patient care
This study looks at people who have had an ischemic stroke (a type caused by a blocked blood vessel). It is collecting information over time to better understand care needs and follow-up after stroke.
HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT06525987Recruiting
Exercise coaching for brain health after small stroke
This study tests whether a home-based exercise program, guided by a coach over video calls, can help improve brain function and connectivity in people who have had a small stroke. The program is designed for people aged 60 and older with a history of lacunar stroke who are not very active but otherwise have minimal disability.
Avezzano, L'AquilaAges 60 years+ - NCT07503301Enrolling by invitation

Study blood vessel growth markers in certain brain artery narrowing
This study looks at “angiogenic markers,” which are blood measures that may reflect how blood vessels grow, in people with significant narrowing of a brain artery. It aims to better understand these changes and how they relate to cerebrovascular disease.
