Pemafibrate to prevent stroke from brain artery narrowing
This trial tests whether a medication called pemafibrate can help prevent future strokes in people who have had a recent stroke or TIA (mini-stroke) caused by a narrowed artery inside the brain. The medication works by lowering triglycerides (a type of fat in the blood).
Toyoake, Aichi-kenAges 18 years+ - NCT06920303Recruiting
Comparing two tests for stroke diagnosis
This trial compares a non-invasive ultrasound test (Transcranial Colour Coded Duplex) to a CT angiography scan for diagnosing stroke. It may help find a simpler and safer way to assess strokes and transient ischemic attacks (mini-strokes).
SohagAges Any age - NCT07104487RecruitingPhase 2
PET/MRI scan to detect inflammation in carotid artery disease
This study tests whether a special type of PET/MRI scan can help doctors see inflammation in the carotid artery after a stroke or mini-stroke. By using a radioactive tracer, the scan may identify which patients have dangerous plaque buildup that could lead to another stroke.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges 18 years+ - NCT07079345Recruiting
Brain imaging study for stroke patients with severe carotid narrowing
This study uses advanced PET/MRI scans to measure blood flow and sugar use in the brain. It is for people who have had a stroke or mini-stroke in the past year due to a severely narrowed carotid artery.
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT04989608Recruiting
Study links brain scan results with thinking after a TIA
This study looks at how brain imaging findings match up with thinking and memory in people after a TIA (a temporary stroke-like event). If you join, your role is mainly to contribute data from brain scans soon after the event, plus study questionnaires.
CaenAges 60 years+ - NCT06666764RecruitingPhase 3
Oxygen therapy for stroke patients transferred for clot removal
This trial tests whether giving high-concentration oxygen (normobaric oxygen) during transfer to a hospital that can remove a blood clot can help people with acute ischemic stroke. It is for patients who are being transferred specifically for endovascular therapy (EVT) to remove a large clot in the brain.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06441552Recruiting
How people recover after a stroke
This study follows people recovering from a first stroke or a stroke that doesn't cause new disability. The goal is to understand the natural recovery process after a stroke.
HaifaAges 18–85 - NCT05885932Recruiting
Stent treatment versus medicines for blocked neck artery
This study compares a drug-coated stent placed in a neck (vertebral) artery versus best medical treatment with medicines and risk-factor control. It aims to reduce problems caused by a badly narrowed artery after recent stroke-like symptoms.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT05832762Recruiting
Clot-buster procedure for blocked neck artery stroke
This trial studies whether an emergency clot-removal procedure through the blood vessels (endovascular treatment) helps people who have a stroke caused by a blocked internal carotid artery in the neck. It compares outcomes in patients treated urgently when imaging shows the blockage is likely the main cause.
Montpellier, FanceAges 18 years+ - NCT04971564Recruiting
Blood inflammation test study in sudden brain oxygen loss
