Brain water changes after clot-busting drug for stroke
This study looks at how much water builds up in brain tissue after a stroke is treated with a clot-busting drug. It may help doctors understand who will recover better.
ViennaAges 18 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+ - NCT07295769Recruiting
Detecting hidden atrial fibrillation after stroke of unknown cause
This study uses a small patch (M.E.M.O. Patch) to continuously monitor your heart rhythm for hidden atrial fibrillation, a treatable cause of stroke. The goal is to see if the patch can find irregular heartbeats that standard tests might miss.
Seoul, Songpa-guAges 19 years+ - NCT07291024Recruiting
Vagus nerve stimulation and walking therapy for stroke recovery
This trial tests if pairing vagus nerve stimulation with walking exercises can help people who had a stroke more than six months ago improve their walking speed and mobility.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT07294274Recruiting
Predicting depression risk after a stroke
This study creates a tool to predict if someone might develop depression after an ischemic stroke. It aims to help doctors identify and support patients who are at higher risk.
ChongqingAges Any age - NCT07288385Recruiting
Virtual reality and brain stimulation for arm recovery after stroke
This study tests if using virtual reality along with mild brain stimulation can help improve arm and hand movement in people who have had a stroke. It is for those who are at least three months past their stroke and have moderate arm weakness.
RiyadhAges 18 years+ - NCT07290751RecruitingPhase 4
Adding tirofiban to clot-busting for stroke patients
This trial tests whether adding a second medicine (tirofiban) to standard clot-busting treatment can help people who are not improving after the first hour. It is for people with a moderate to severe stroke who are not candidates for a clot-removal procedure.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07279493RecruitingPhase 2
Testing KPCXM18 injection for acute ischemic stroke within 12 hours
This trial tests an investigational injection called KPCXM18 for people having an acute ischemic stroke. It is given within 12 hours of symptom onset, in addition to standard clot-dissolving treatment, to see if it improves recovery and safety.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07282938Recruiting
Robot hand and electrical stimulation for hand function after stroke
This test combines a soft robotic hand and electrical stimulation to help improve hand movement in people recovering from a stroke. It may benefit stroke survivors who have some ability to extend their fingers and are in the early months of recovery.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 45–65 - NCT07283159RecruitingPhase 2
Tenecteplase plus a second drug for stroke recovery
This study tests whether giving a second drug (urinary kallidinogenase) after the clot-busting drug tenecteplase can help people with moderate to severe ischemic strokes recover better. It is for patients who started treatment within 4.5 hours of symptoms.

- 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.
