Comparing two heart-opening closure devices after a stroke or TIA
This trial compares two devices that close a small opening in the heart called a PFO, which can let clots pass and cause strokes. If you've had a stroke or mini-stroke with no other cause, this study might help prevent future ones.

This study looks at whether a low-dose whole-body imaging scan soon after a stroke or TIA (sometimes called a “mini-stroke”) can help doctors evaluate you. It also includes long follow-up to see how patients do over time.
MontpellierAges 18–89 - NCT07242768Recruiting
Long-term exercise follow-up for artery narrowing
This trial looks at the long-term effects of regular exercise for people with narrowed brain arteries. It follows participants from a previous study to see if exercise continues to help over three more years.

Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT07724171Recruiting
Long-term results after PFO closure surgery
This study looks at how well patients do over time after having a hole in their heart (patent foramen ovale, or PFO) closed with a small device inserted through a vein. It may help doctors understand the benefits and risks of the procedure.
SeoulAges 19 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+ - 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 - NCT06091319Recruiting
Florbetaben imaging for vascular amyloid after heart or brain event
This trial tests whether florbetaben, a special dye, can show amyloid buildup in blood vessels after a recent heart attack, chest pain episode, or stroke. It aims to help doctors better understand and prevent future events.
Ottawa, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT04240119Enrolling 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.
Ages 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 - NCT06728592Recruiting
Emergency stroke care for rapid treatment of ischemic stroke
This trial tests a dedicated emergency stroke unit that provides fast, coordinated care for people with acute ischemic stroke. If you qualify, you may receive clot-busting medication or clot-removal treatment quickly to help reduce brain damage and improve recovery.
Hong KongAges 18–100 - NCT06718075Recruiting
Comparing tools to predict stroke risk after a mini-stroke
This study looks at two ways to estimate your chance of having a stroke after a transient ischemic attack (a mini-stroke). You will be asked some questions, and your risk will be calculated using both methods. The goal is to see which tool is more accurate for patients like you.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT07339787Recruiting
How well do ER doctors diagnose TIAs?
This study looks at how well doctors in the emergency room diagnose transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) — temporary, minor strokes that quickly resolve. It aims to improve future care by reviewing records of people who had these symptoms.

Clot-busting therapy for stroke patients on blood thinners
This study tests whether giving a clot-busting medicine through an IV can help people who have had a stroke while taking a common blood thinner (apixaban, dabigatran, edoxaban, or rivaroxaban). It may be an option if your last dose of the blood thinner was 12 to 48 hours before the stroke and you arrive at the hospital within 4.5 hours of symptoms starting.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT07723300Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for stroke (cva) or transient ischemic attack?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 141 recruiting stroke (cva) or transient ischemic attack 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 stroke (cva) or transient ischemic attack 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 stroke (cva) or transient ischemic attack 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.
