Singapore, SingaporeAges 21–90 - NCT06275516Recruiting
Virtual Reality with Sights, Sounds, and Touch for Stroke Recovery
This study tests whether a special virtual reality program that uses sights, sounds, and touch can help people who have had a stroke move their leg better. You might qualify if you had a first stroke, have trouble moving your leg, and can walk a little bit with help.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT06278259Recruiting
Exercise program for stroke recovery in seniors

Genotype-guided antiplatelet therapy for stroke patients
This trial tests whether using a rapid genetic test to choose antiplatelet medication can improve outcomes for people who have had a stroke or mini-stroke. The test checks a gene that affects how your body processes a common antiplatelet drug, so your doctors can pick the safest and most effective medicine for you.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06292377Recruiting
Understanding Fatigue After First Stroke
This study looks at why people feel very tired after a first-time stroke. It involves questionnaires, thinking and memory tests, and a brain MRI to understand sleep, mood, and fatigue better.

Dry Needling vs Botox for Post-Stroke Leg Stiffness
This study compares two treatments for leg stiffness after a stroke: dry needling (tiny needles placed in trigger points) and Botox injections. It may help you if you've had a first stroke within the past year and have mild to moderate tightness in the calf muscles that limits ankle movement.
Antwerp, FlandersAges 18–75 - NCT06297863RecruitingPhase 2

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for stroke?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,747 recruiting stroke 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 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.
