MinyaAges 40–55 - NCT05683873Recruiting
Study of heart stress after stroke using a blood marker
This study looks at how heart function changes soon after a new stroke, and whether a blood marker called GDF-15 can help explain or predict that change. It may help doctors better monitor heart stress after stroke and tailor care sooner.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT07460804Recruiting

- 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.
