Dallas, TexasAges 18–85 - NCT06437587Recruiting
Home rehab with simple tech for stroke recovery
This trial tests a home-based rehabilitation program using simple technology to help people who have had a stroke and still have trouble moving an arm or leg. It aims to see if doing exercises at home can improve your recovery.
Daqing, HeilongjiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06437600Recruiting
Immediate balloon angioplasty for severe stroke with brain artery narrowing
This trial tests whether doing an angioplasty (a procedure to open a narrowed artery with a small balloon) as soon as possible after a severe stroke caused by a blockage in a brain artery can improve recovery. It is for people who arrive within 24 hours of their stroke and have a specific type of narrowing inside the skull.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06440707RecruitingPhase 2
Brain stimulation for recent stroke recovery
This trial tests a safe, non-invasive brain stimulation technique called tDCS to help people recover from a recent stroke. It's for people who cannot have the standard clot-removal procedure and who can start treatment within 24 hours of their stroke.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06442579Recruiting
Arm swing walking study for stroke survivors
This study looks at how a stroke affects the way your arm swings naturally when you walk. Researchers want to learn how to improve walking recovery after a stroke.
Ghent, Oost-VlaanderenAges 18–70 - NCT06446960RecruitingPhase 3
Nerve blocks for stroke-related central pain
This study tests whether numbing the nerves in your painful arm or leg (with a nerve block) can help reduce central pain after a stroke. It aims to find out how the nerves outside your brain and spinal cord may be involved.
Boulogne-BillancourtAges 18 years+ - NCT06451887Recruiting
Predicting brain swelling after stroke treatment
This study looks at how to predict dangerous brain swelling after endovascular treatment for large artery stroke. It uses CT scans to identify patients at risk, which could help doctors monitor and treat them more closely.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–80 - NCT06456437Recruiting
Testing a new technique after clot removal for stroke
This trial tests if a special technique called 'ischemic post-conditioning' can improve recovery after a large vessel stroke. It is for people who have had a major blockage in a brain artery that was successfully opened with a clot retrieval procedure.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06457217Recruiting
MRSI for minor stroke with large artery blockage
This study uses a special MRI technique (called MRSI) to look at brain chemistry in people who have had a minor stroke due to a blocked large artery. The goal is to see if the scan can help doctors better understand the stroke and guide treatment decisions.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–100 - NCT06458153Recruiting
Imaging speech after cerebellar stroke
This study uses brain scans to understand how the brain controls speech in people who have had a cerebellar stroke. It is looking for both stroke survivors and healthy volunteers to compare.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06459336Recruiting
Comparing two therapies for arm function after stroke
This study tests two different schedules of Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy (CI therapy) to see which better helps stroke survivors regain use of their weaker arm and hand. You may qualify if you can make small wrist and finger movements.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 45–65 - NCT06459388Recruiting
Balance training methods for stroke recovery
This study compares two types of physical therapy exercises to help stroke survivors improve balance and walking. One method uses arm and leg movements, while the other focuses on the pelvis area.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 40–65 - NCT06465758Recruiting
Stroke recovery study
This study is for people who have had a stroke and are in the early recovery phase. It looks at how well patients recover, with a focus on arm and hand movement, to help guide future care.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06472336Recruiting
Stenting for severe stroke caused by plaque buildup
This trial tests whether placing a stent (a tiny tube) in the blocked artery in the brain can improve blood flow and help people recover from a severe stroke, especially when standard clot removal has not worked.
Basel, Canton of Basel-CityAges 18 years+ - NCT06476782Recruiting
Motor learning and exercise for stroke recovery
This study tests a combined motor relearning program and aerobic exercise to improve balance and leg function in people recovering from a stroke that happened 1 to 5 months ago. If you qualify, you would receive this therapy to help with your standing stability and walking ability.
Sialkot, Punjab ProvinceAges 50–70 - NCT07693816Recruiting
Finding stroke caused by small artery disease
This study looks at whether your stroke was caused by branch atheromatous disease (BAD), a type of small artery blockage. Knowing this may help choose the best treatment and prevention plan.
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT06489145Recruiting
High-tech rehab program for stroke recovery
This trial tests a high-tech rehabilitation program using an exoskeleton to help people recover arm movement after a stroke. It aims to improve multiple areas of function, like strength and daily activities.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06490276Recruiting
Biofeedback gait training for stroke survivors
This study tests whether a special gait training program with biofeedback (real-time information about your walking) can improve walking quality in people who have had a stroke. It may help you walk better and more naturally.
TaipeiAges 20–80 - NCT06495073Recruiting
Finding meaningful change after stroke or TIA in older adults
This study looks at how well two health questionnaires work for people 70 and older who have had a stroke or TIA. The goal is to find the smallest change that matters to patients, so doctors can better track recovery.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 70–120 - NCT06495450Recruiting
Virtual reality and treadmill training for chronic stroke recovery
This study tests if walking on a treadmill while using a special virtual reality headset can help people improve their walking after a stroke. It is for people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago, can walk with some help, and live near Halifax.
Halifax, Nova ScotiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06496529Recruiting
Robot arm brace for stroke recovery
This study tests a robotic arm brace (exoskeleton) to help people who recently had a stroke and have trouble moving their arm. The goal is to see if the device can improve arm movement and daily function.

- 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.
