Recruiting studies
- NCT06959199Recruiting
Treating stroke beyond 24 hours with artery-opening procedure
This study tests whether opening a blocked large artery in the brain up to 5 days (or even 7 days if symptoms are worsening) after a stroke can improve outcomes. It uses a catheter-based treatment (endovascular therapy) for people who have not responded to standard care and have limited brain damage so far.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT04975646Recruiting
Goal-setting tool for upper-arm spasticity treatment
This study looks at whether a structured goal-setting approach helps measure and improve treatment for stiff, tight upper-arm muscles after a stroke. It tests how well patients’ (or caregivers’) goals can be tracked when receiving or considering botulinum toxin (BTX-A).
LjubljanaAges 18 years+ - NCT05625438Recruiting
Home video therapy for early arm recovery after stroke
This study tests a home-based (telerehabilitation) program to help people practice arm movement after a recent stroke (or certain brain injuries). It may help improve arm function when started soon after symptoms begin.
Fullerton, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06978413Recruiting
Telerehab through digital tech for stroke recovery
This trial tests whether telerehabilitation using digital tools can help stroke survivors recover better. It aims to see if remote therapy is effective during the months after a stroke.
AcerenzaAges 18 years+ - NCT07420374Recruiting
Outpatient stroke care for older patients
This study tests whether older people with minor strokes or warning signs can be safely treated at home or in an outpatient clinic instead of staying in the hospital. It may be a good fit if you recently had a mild stroke and do not need complex medical care.
HeidelbergAges 60 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+ - NCT05525325Recruiting
Sedation method during clot removal for posterior stroke
This study compares different ways of giving sedation during a procedure to remove blood clots in strokes caused by blocked vertebral or basilar arteries. The goal is to see which sedation approach is safest and works best for patients undergoing endovascular treatment.
Heidelberg, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT06848894Recruiting
Study of a drug for stroke patients after blood clot treatment
This trial tests if adding a drug called human urinary kallidinogenase (HUK) can improve recovery for people who have had a stroke and already received clot-busting medicine or a procedure to remove the clot. The goal is to see if it helps reduce disability after a stroke.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05260125RecruitingPhase 4
Ultrasound-guided shoulder nerve block for stroke pain
This trial compares two ways to deliver a shoulder nerve block to relieve long-lasting shoulder pain after stroke: one guided by ultrasound and one without. It may help if your stroke-related shoulder pain has lasted at least a few months and you may benefit from a targeted pain-relief injection.
BoluAges 25–75 - NCT07220538RecruitingPhase 4
Ginkgo biloba for memory problems after a mild stroke
This trial tests whether adding ginkgo biloba extract tablets to standard stroke care helps improve memory and thinking in people who had a mild stroke. You may join if you are 55 or older, had a mild stroke in the last 1 to 2 weeks, and now have some cognitive difficulties.
AnyangAges 55 years+ - NCT07294209RecruitingPhase 4
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+ - NCT07043686Recruiting
Cerebrolysin for early stroke recovery
This trial tests if adding Cerebrolysin to standard rehabilitation helps people recover arm and hand function better after a first-time, moderate stroke. You may be eligible if you had a stroke and can follow simple instructions.
LjubljanaAges 18 years+ - NCT05584124RecruitingPhase 2
Brain stimulation treatment for lasting fatigue after stroke
This trial tests a non-painful brain stimulation method (repetitive magnetic pulses) to see if it can reduce fatigue that continues long after a stroke. It may help people whose stroke fatigue has lasted more than six months and who can safely undergo repeated sessions.
Decatur, GeorgiaAges 34–80 - NCT06604117Recruiting
Probucol and statins for recent ischemic stroke
This trial tests whether adding probucol to statin therapy can help people who recently had an ischemic stroke caused by hardened arteries. The goal is to see if this combination works better than statins alone for preventing future strokes.
Xicheng District, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06956183Recruiting
Balance exercises for stroke-related tiredness
This study tests if specific balance exercises can help reduce tiredness after a stroke. If you had a stroke at least 6 months ago and can walk a little, you may be able to join.
AnkaraAges 18–65 - NCT06146790Recruiting
Endovascular treatment for strokes in smaller brain arteries
This trial tests a minimally invasive procedure to remove blood clots from smaller arteries deep inside the brain. It may help people with moderate to severe stroke symptoms who can be treated within 24 hours of symptom onset.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT07016854Recruiting
Early treatment for blocked carotid artery stroke
This trial tests whether early treatment (using a catheter to open the blocked artery) can help people with a stroke caused by a blockage in the internal carotid artery. The goal is to improve recovery and reduce disability.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT05930145Recruiting
Two clot-retrievers versus one for acute stroke treatment
This trial compares using two clot-retrievers at the same time versus using just one to remove the clot in an acute ischemic stroke. It may help find a more effective approach to restore blood flow and improve recovery.
EssenAges 18 years+ - NCT06755944Enrolling by invitationPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of XY03-EA tablets for recent stroke recovery
This trial tests whether XY03-EA tablets can help people recover after an acute ischemic stroke. Participants must have had a stroke within the last 48 hours and have moderate to severe symptoms but not be in a coma.
Shijiazhuang, HebeiAges 18–80 - NCT07102927Recruiting
Virtual reality training for stroke patients with neglect
This trial tests whether virtual reality exercises can help people with right-brain stroke overcome 'neglect' (trouble noticing things on their left side). It aims to improve daily function and quality of life.
SeoulAges 19–99 - NCT06665386Recruiting
Cooling infusion with clot removal for severe stroke
This study tests whether cooling the brain during clot removal (thrombectomy) can improve recovery after a severe stroke caused by a large blood vessel blockage. Researchers will use blood tests to find markers that may predict who benefits most.
Dalian, LiaoningAges 18–80 - NCT04948749Recruiting
Stenting plus medication to prevent stroke from narrowed brain arteries
This trial tests whether placing a stent in a severely narrowed brain artery, along with aggressive medication, can prevent another stroke better than medication alone. It is for people who had a mild stroke within the last 30 days due to a 70-99% blockage in a major brain artery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT03317860Recruiting
Tests VR and brain stimulation for stroke neglect
This study looks at ways to measure and improve “neglect,” when someone has trouble noticing one side after a stroke. It involves specific brain/hand stimulation testing and focuses on people a few months after stroke.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06639360Recruiting
Magnetic stimulation after clot removal for stroke recovery
This trial tests whether adding magnetic brain stimulation (TMS) after clot-removal surgery can help people recover better from a stroke. It is for people who had a moderate-to-severe stroke in the front part of the brain and had the clot removed.
