LAA clip vs. blood thinners to prevent stroke in non-paroxysmal AF
This study compares two ways to prevent stroke in people with persistent or long-standing atrial fibrillation (AF): taking a blood thinner (NOAC) or having a minimally invasive procedure to clip off the left atrial appendage (LAA). The goal is to see which approach works better at preventing stroke without causing major bleeding.

Brain training with neurofeedback for children after brain injury
This study helps children and teens improve thinking and memory after a brain injury or epilepsy using a brain-computer interface that gives feedback as they do mental exercises. It is a training program that may help strengthen brain function.
SingaporeAges 7–21 - NCT07820800Recruiting
Personalized digital health guidance for middle-aged adults
This study tests whether a digital health app can help middle-aged adults based on their personal metabolic risk. It aims to prevent diseases by providing tailored guidance.
SavonlinnaAges 45–55 - NCT07810374Enrolling by invitation
Learning program for swallowing difficulties after stroke
This trial tests an interactive teaching system that helps stroke patients learn about swallowing difficulties (dysphagia). The program uses videos and quizzes to teach you techniques to swallow safely, which might help you recover and avoid complications.
Yuli, Yilan CountyAges 20–75 - NCT06319846RecruitingPhase 3
Tirofiban for recent mild stroke or TIA with narrowed brain artery
This trial tests the drug tirofiban (a blood thinner) to prevent another stroke in people who have had a mild stroke or high-risk TIA and have a narrowed artery in the brain. It must be started within 24 hours of symptoms.

Probucol for recent stroke or mini-stroke from narrowed arteries
This study tests whether the drug probucol can help people who recently had a stroke or mini-stroke caused by a narrowed artery in the brain or neck. It aims to reduce the risk of future strokes.
WuhuAges 40 years+ - NCT07800962Enrolling by invitation
Comparing bedside heart ultrasound to standard echocardiography
This study looks at whether a quick ultrasound done at the bedside (point-of-care) can give similar information to a full echocardiogram. Participants must be adults having both tests within 24 hours of each other, and their medical data must be available for research.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07795645Recruiting
AI model training for stomach, heart, and brain diseases
This study is testing an artificial intelligence (AI) system that learns from your medical records to better understand and possibly help with diseases like stomach issues, heart problems, and strokes. It may improve how doctors use information from your visit to guide your care.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06545591Recruiting
Predicting stroke treatment success with a blood test
This trial studies a blood marker called sTREM to see if it can help predict outcomes after a mechanical clot removal procedure (endovascular thrombectomy) for large-vessel stroke. If you have had a stroke due to a large artery blockage within the last 24 hours and plan to have this procedure, you may be able to join.
Xuzhou, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06548737Recruiting
Outcomes after a brain bleed

- 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.
