Tenecteplase before clot removal for stroke at 4.5-24 hours
This trial tests a clot-busting drug called tenecteplase for people who have a large artery blockage in the front part of the brain and are being transferred to a specialized center for a clot removal procedure. It may help dissolve the clot before the procedure, even if it's been up to 24 hours since symptoms started.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07353424Recruiting
Salicornia extract for memory after a small stroke
This study tests whether a polyphenol-rich extract from a salt-tolerant plant called Salicornia can slow memory decline in people who have had a lacunar stroke. It compares the extract to the usual care you would receive.
SevilleAges 40–90 - NCT06621121Recruiting
Comparing two clot-busting drugs for stroke within 4.5 hours
This study compares two medications, tenecteplase and alteplase, to see which works better at dissolving blood clots in people having an ischemic stroke. You may join if you can get treatment within 4.5 hours of when your symptoms started.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07089095Recruiting
Choosing rehab after a stroke: your preferences matter
This study looks at what matters to you when choosing rehabilitation care after a recent stroke. By joining, you can help doctors understand how to better support people like you in recovery.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06510634Enrolling by invitation
Stroke treatment after 24 hours for vertebrobasilar blockage
This trial tests a method to triage people who had a stroke in the back part of the brain (vertebrobasilar artery) more than 24 hours ago. The goal is to find the best way to decide which patients may still benefit from treatment.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–90 - NCT07509645RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new drug with clot removal for severe back-of-the-brain stroke
This trial checks if adding an interleukin-6 receptor inhibitor (a drug that reduces inflammation) to standard emergency clot removal can improve recovery for people with a severe stroke affecting the back part of the brain (posterior circulation). It is for patients who need urgent treatment within 24 hours of symptom onset.
Suzhou, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT05723926Recruiting
Carotid implants to help prevent stroke repeat in atrial fibrillation
This trial tests whether placing a carotid implant can reduce the chance of having another stroke in people with atrial fibrillation who are already taking blood thinners. It aims to prevent stroke recurrence while you continue prescribed anticoagulation.
Rockford, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06023212RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tranexamic acid to prevent bleeding in spine surgery for lung cancer
This trial tests if a medicine called tranexamic acid can help reduce bleeding during surgery for lung cancer that has spread to the spine. It may be an option if you have a single tumor in your spine and are having separation surgery.

Testing brain blood-flow control in recent carotid or MCA narrowing
This study tests how well your brain controls its own blood flow (“cerebral autoregulation”) after a recent TIA or ischemic stroke caused by a narrowed carotid or MCA artery. It may help researchers understand why symptoms happen and how to better assess brain circulation after stroke.

- Are there clinical trials for stroke patients?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 437 recruiting stroke patients 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 patients 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 patients 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.
