Swallowing exercises with visual feedback after stroke
This study tests whether special swallowing exercises with a visual feedback tool can help people who have trouble swallowing after a recent stroke. If you've had a stroke in the last 6 months and have trouble swallowing, this may help you regain strength.
AnkaraAges 18 years+ - NCT07500116Recruiting
Home monitoring after minor stroke or TIA
This study tests whether using a wearable and smartphone app at home can help monitor recovery after a minor stroke or mini-stroke (TIA) – possibly reducing hospital stays while keeping you safe. If you have mild symptoms that stabilized in the ER, and you have help at home, you may qualify.
BarcelonaAges Any age - NCT07504276Recruiting
Remote rehab vs in-person rehab for stroke recovery
This study compares doing brain-training exercises at home on a digital device versus going to a clinic after a stroke. It aims to see which method better helps improve memory, thinking, and daily function.
Islamabad, Punjab ProvinceAges 50–80 - NCT07512739Recruiting
Sitting Tai Chi for Stroke Survivors With Cognitive Changes
This study tests whether a sitting tai chi program can help people who've had a stroke and are experiencing memory or thinking problems. You would learn tai chi movements while sitting, with your caregiver also participating in the program.
Kunming, YunnanAges 18 years+ - NCT07541560Recruiting
Group Activities and Music for Stroke Recovery
This study tests whether group leisure activities and music training can help people recover better after a stroke. You would participate in these activities during your hospital stay in the first few weeks after your stroke.
Barcelona, CataloniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07546864Recruiting
Mirror Therapy vs. Daily Activity Training After Stroke
This study compares two rehabilitation approaches—mirror therapy (using a mirror to help retrain your affected side) and cognitive orientation to daily tasks—for people recovering from stroke. The goal is to see which method helps improve arm, hand, and leg function better.
Bayburt, MerkezAges 18 years+ - NCT07546877Recruiting
Brain Stimulation to Improve Memory After Stroke
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can help improve thinking and memory problems that occur after a stroke. If you've had a stroke in the past year and are experiencing cognitive difficulties, this trial may help restore some of your mental abilities.
JinanAges 35–75 - NCT07556887Recruiting
Using IMPROVE to Choose Carotid Artery Treatment After Stroke
This study tests whether a new tool called IMPROVE helps doctors decide if you need surgery or a stent to clear a narrowed carotid artery (a major neck blood vessel) after a recent stroke or mini-stroke. The goal is to better predict which patients will benefit most from this treatment.
Arnhem, GelderlandAges 18 years+ - NCT07610850Recruiting
Brain-controlled stimulation to improve arm and leg movement after stroke
This trial tests a new brain-controlled device that sends electrical signals to your spinal cord to help restore arm and leg movement after a stroke. If you had a stroke at least 9 months ago and have weakness on one side of your body, this may help you regain function.
Lausanne, Canton of VaudAges 18–70 - NCT07611136Recruiting
Brain Vessel Disease Progression After Different Stroke Types
This study examines how small blood vessel disease in the brain progresses differently depending on whether you've had a recent stroke. Researchers will use MRI scans to track changes over time and better understand this condition.
Ulm, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT07620210Recruiting
Swallowing Therapy and Pressure Ball Training After Stroke
This study tests whether a swallowing therapy program (CTAR) combined with a pressure ball exercise helps older adults who had a stroke recover their ability to swallow safely. Many stroke survivors struggle with swallowing, which can lead to serious health problems, so this research aims to find better ways to help.
Tainan, Tainan CityAges 65–90 - NCT07624630Recruiting
Brain Activity and Walking After Stroke
This study examines how your brain works when you walk and think at the same time after stroke. Researchers will use brain imaging to understand this process, which could help develop better rehabilitation strategies.
Solna, Stockholm CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT07629011Recruiting
Mental imagery and robotic hand training after stroke
This trial tests whether combining mental imagery practice with a robotic hand device can help improve hand function in people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago. The robotic hand reads signals from your arm muscles to help you practice controlled movements.
Rawalpindi, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–70 - NCT07642154Recruiting
Balance and Sensory Training After Stroke
This study compares two types of physical therapy to help stroke patients improve balance, sensation in their legs, and confidence walking. The goal is to see which approach works better for people recovering from stroke.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 50–65 - NCT07643337Recruiting
Vagus Nerve Stimulation With Rehab to Improve Walking After Stroke
This study tests whether vagus nerve stimulation (a small device that stimulates a nerve in your neck) combined with rehabilitation therapy can help improve walking and leg function in stroke survivors. You would be one of the first to try this combination approach for stroke recovery.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 22–80 - NCT07484958Enrolling by invitation
Co-designing a stroke rehab trial toolkit
This study asks stroke survivors, their families, and healthcare staff to help create a toolkit that makes it easier to run stroke rehabilitation clinical trials. Your input will improve how future trials are designed.
Plymouth, DevonAges 18 years+ - NCT07426354Enrolling by invitation
Sensory feedback and mirror therapy for stroke recovery
This trial tests whether combining sensory feedback with mirror therapy can help people who have had a stroke improve arm movement. It may be a good option if you are at least three months past your stroke and have some but limited arm function.
New Taipei CityAges 20–85 - NCT07159256Enrolling by invitation
Processing speed after stroke and its effect on movement and quality of life
This study looks at how fast your brain processes information after a stroke and how that affects your movement, balance, walking, and daily life. It may help find better ways to help people recover.

- How do I know if I qualify for a stroke 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 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.
