Testing MT200605 for acute ischemic stroke
This trial tests whether MT200605 can help people who recently had an ischemic stroke (a type of stroke caused by a blocked blood vessel). The drug is given within 24 hours of symptoms starting, and you may join even if you received clot-busting treatment already.
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+ - NCT06292117Recruiting
Genotype-guided antiplatelet therapy for stroke patients
This trial tests whether using a rapid genetic test to choose antiplatelet medication can improve outcomes for people who have had a stroke or mini-stroke. The test checks a gene that affects how your body processes a common antiplatelet drug, so your doctors can pick the safest and most effective medicine for you.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06806397Recruiting
Brain imaging study of arm weakness after stroke
This study uses a light-based brain scanner (fNIRS) to understand how stroke affects arm movement. It may help find new ways to improve rehab.
MoscowAges 35–70 - 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 - NCT06674057Recruiting
Taping with physical therapy for arm function after stroke
This study tests whether adding kinesio-taping to standard physical therapy helps improve arm movement and reduce stiffness in people recovering from a recent stroke.
IslamabadAges 40–65 - NCT07407790Recruiting
Smartphone heart check after stroke
This study tests whether using a smartphone app to check your heart rhythm after a stroke can find hidden atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). If you had a recent stroke or TIA and are not already on blood thinners, you may be able to help doctors detect and prevent future strokes.
KristiansandAges 18 years+ - NCT06979466Recruiting
Electrical device for chronic stroke recovery
This trial tests a device that uses electrical stimulation to help people who had a stroke several months to years ago improve arm and hand movement. You would use the device while sitting and do physical exercises with help from a caregiver.
White Plains, New YorkAges 18–80 - NCT06890702Recruiting
Testing new blood markers for brain blood flow problems
This study is testing whether certain substances in your blood can help doctors better detect and understand problems with blood flow in the brain. Researchers hope these new 'biomarkers' could lead to faster and more accurate diagnosis of conditions like stroke and mini-stroke.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–90 - NCT05044208Recruiting
Test heart ultrasound and monitoring clues for atrial fibrillation
This study looks at heart ultrasound pictures and heart-rhythm recordings to predict who may develop atrial fibrillation (AF) after a stroke or TIA. If you qualify, your results may help doctors better spot people at higher risk earlier.
TullnAges 18 years+ - NCT05885295Recruiting
Testing thinking and memory after stroke using cognitive exams
This study looks at how thinking and memory change after a stroke using short cognitive tests. It may help researchers better understand which brain changes affect thinking, and how to measure them accurately.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07795021Recruiting
Stroke care during the COVID-19 pandemic
This study looks at how stroke care was given during the COVID-19 pandemic. It aims to understand if treatments and outcomes changed, which may help improve care for people with stroke in future health emergencies.

Training to improve arm and hand function after stroke
This study tests a new type of training that combines thinking, feeling, and moving to help improve arm and hand function after a stroke.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07013188Recruiting
Muscle function in stroke survivors
This study looks at how muscles work after a stroke. It aims to better understand long-term weakness or loss of function on one side of the body, which could help improve future treatments.
Derby, DerbyshireAges 40–85 - NCT06649240Recruiting
