Virtual versus in-person care after stroke
This study compares two ways of caring for stroke patients who aren't candidates for emergency clot-removal surgery. Half will receive care through a virtual stroke unit (telemedicine), and half will receive traditional in-person care at the hospital. The goal is to see if both approaches work equally well for recovery and safety.

Low-dose tenecteplase for older adults with stroke
This trial tests a lower dose of the clot-busting drug tenecteplase in people aged 70 and older who have had an ischemic stroke. It aims to see if this treatment is safe and effective for older patients when given within 4.5 hours of symptoms starting.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 70 years+ - NCT06828679Recruiting
AI system to improve arm recovery after stroke
This trial tests whether an AI-powered system can help improve arm movement in people who had a stroke 1 to 6 months ago. It uses electrical stimulation to activate muscles and may lead to better recovery.
Hong Kong, Sha TinAges 65–80 - NCT05911568Recruiting
Clot-removal treatment for stroke patients with existing disability
This trial studies whether an endovascular (catheter-based) procedure to treat a certain type of blocked artery can improve outcomes for people who already had trouble functioning before their stroke. You may be considered if your stroke is confirmed early and your scans show the right type and location of blockage.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06749002Recruiting
Functional training for turning after stroke
This trial tests whether adding functional muscle training to turning-specific exercises helps people who have had a stroke turn more easily. It may benefit those who can walk with supervision and have no major memory or other neurological problems.
Islamabad, Punjab ProvinceAges 45–60 - NCT06940635Recruiting
Hand therapy for stroke: may help speech and swallowing
This study tests whether a special hand therapy using brain-computer interface and electrical stimulation can also help improve speech and swallowing problems after a stroke. You may be eligible if you're at least 3 months past your stroke, have some arm weakness, and have aphasia or dysphagia.
Innsbruck, TyrolAges 18 years+ - NCT05476991RecruitingPhase 3
Low-dose colchicine plus ticagrelor to prevent repeat stroke
This Phase 3 study tests whether low-dose colchicine added to ticagrelor (a blood-thinning medicine) helps prevent another ischemic stroke in people whose first stroke was caused by clogged arteries. It aims to lower the risk of repeat stroke after recovery from a recent event.
Paris, ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT07014501Recruiting
Stroke recovery and trach tube removal at different altitudes
This trial studies how well stroke patients with a breathing tube (tracheostomy) can have it removed. It looks at genes and blood oxygen levels, and compares patients at different altitudes to find the best timing for removal.
Kunming, YunnanAges 18–75 - NCT07742020Recruiting
Movement therapy comparison for stroke recovery
This study compares two rehabilitation techniques to help people who have had a stroke regain movement in their arm or leg. It aims to find which method works better for improving daily function during the recovery phase.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 45–65 - NCT07095920Recruiting
Brain stimulation for arm recovery after stroke
This trial tests a brain stimulation device (Brain Q) to help improve arm and hand movement in people who had a stroke 6 months to 5 years ago. The goal is to see if it can boost recovery beyond standard therapy.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18–80 - NCT06593184Recruiting
Magnetic stimulation for mobility after stroke

Plaque features predict repeat stroke after middle cerebral artery blockage
This study looks at people who recently had a stroke caused by hardening of the arteries in the middle cerebral artery, a major blood vessel in the brain. The researchers use special MRI scans to see if the plaque (the fatty buildup) can predict whether another stroke might happen.

Common questions
- 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.
