Recruiting studies
- NCT06645405Recruiting
AI scan reading for stroke caused by large vessel blockage
This trial tests whether an AI program can better read CT scans to find large blood vessel blockages that cause stroke. If you had a stroke from a blocked large vessel and already had CT scans, the AI may help doctors decide on treatment faster.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–95 - NCT04981184Recruiting
Testing muscle signals to predict walking recovery after stroke
This study looks at surface muscle electrical signals (from electrodes on the skin) to understand and predict how well your balance and walking may improve after a first stroke. You might benefit by learning more about your recovery and by helping researchers find better ways to track progress.
KaunasAges 18–89 - NCT06646601Recruiting
Garden-based program for heart and stroke recovery
This trial tests a preventive program that uses a therapeutic garden to help people with heart or blood vessel conditions. It looks at whether patients find the program helpful and easy to take part in.
GapAges 18 years+ - NCT07705906Recruiting
Robot-assisted leg training for mobility recovery
This trial tests a robot device to help people with leg weakness from stroke, spinal cord injury, or joint surgery improve their walking. It may be a good option if you are medically stable and can work with the robot safely.
Dhaka, Dhaka DivisionAges 18–70 - NCT06648954Recruiting
Brain stimulation to improve hand movement in chronic stroke
This study tests whether a brain stimulation technique called high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) can help improve hand and arm movement in people who had a stroke more than a year ago. The stimulation targets the parts of the brain that control movement, and the goal is to see if it can boost recovery when combined with standard therapy.
Hong KongAges Any age - NCT06660797Recruiting
Irrigation methods for root canal treatment
This trial tests different ways to flush and clean inside a tooth during root canal treatment. It aims to see which method best reaches deep into the tooth and reduces bacteria.
TantaAges 18–40 - NCT02114450Recruiting
Training with a leg exoskeleton after stroke
This trial tests a “human–machine” leg exoskeleton system to help people with stroke improve standing and walking during rehab. You may be able to participate if you have certain levels of disability and spasticity, can safely stand and walk with help, and don’t have skin, joint, or medical issues that would make training unsafe.
Houston, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT06649968Recruiting
Testing a smart glove for hand recovery after stroke
This trial tests a high-tech glove that helps track and improve hand and arm movement after a stroke. It may be an option for people who had a stroke 1 to 6 months ago and have mild to moderate arm weakness.
AcerenzaAges 18 years+ - NCT07672795Recruiting
Clot removal treatment for severe stroke in the back of the brain
This study tests whether a minimally invasive procedure to remove a large blood clot from the main artery at the back of the brain can help people who have had a severe stroke. It aims to improve recovery and reduce disability.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–85 - NCT06670456Recruiting
Brain Bleed Study (Without Surgery)
This study is for people who had a spontaneous brain bleed and did not have surgery. It aims to learn more about their recovery and health over time.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18 years+ - NCT06675383Recruiting
Screening for atrial fibrillation after stroke
This trial tests whether extended monitoring can detect hidden atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) in people who have had a stroke. If found, treatment can help prevent another stroke.
Sogneprest Munthe-kaas Vei 100, GjettumAges 18 years+ - NCT07670325Recruiting
Knee device for walking rehab after stroke
This trial tests a knee device that helps people walk better after a stroke. It is for people who had a stroke within the last 2 years, can walk with some help, and meet basic height and weight limits.
Roma, RMAges 18 years+ - NCT06573359Recruiting
Expanded rehab scale study for stroke survivors
This study aims to test a new scale that measures rehabilitation complexity for stroke patients. It could help doctors better plan your rehab.
Istanbul, BahçelievlerAges 2 months–6 months - NCT06668649Recruiting
Polish fatigue scale study for MS, ALS, or stroke
This study tests a Polish version of a scale that measures how tired people feel. It's for people with MS, ALS, or stroke, or healthy volunteers.
Krakow, Lesser Poland VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT02756091Recruiting
Study of treatment after a new brain artery dissection
This study looks at people who have had a fresh tear in a brain artery within the last month. The goal is to learn the best way to manage this condition and improve outcomes.
Osaka, KansaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07654634Enrolling by invitation
Precision blood thinning therapy study
This trial tests personalized blood thinner treatment for people who need long-term anticoagulation for conditions like atrial fibrillation or blood clots. The goal is to find the safest and most effective dose for each patient.
Changsha, HunanAges 8 years+ - NCT04449523Recruiting
Check for hidden heart rhythm problems after silent brain strokes
This study looks at how often “silent” atrial fibrillation—an irregular heart rhythm that can be symptom-free—happens in people who have silent brain stroke spots on MRI. If it finds a link, it may help identify which patients might benefit from closer heart monitoring or prevention steps.
GrazAges 50 years+ - NCT06691230Recruiting
Looking at blood flow after stroke clot removal
This study uses a special CT scan to see how well blood flows in the brain after a stroke patient has had a procedure to remove a clot. The goal is to learn more about recovery and improve future care.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT07642856Recruiting
Brain Stimulation With Therapy for Cerebellar Disorders
This study tests a combination of gentle brain stimulation paired with specialized exercises designed to help people with cerebellar conditions—disorders affecting balance, coordination, and movement. The goal is to see if pairing these two approaches together works better than either alone.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–75 - NCT06543758RecruitingPhase 4
Gait rehab with a wearable robot at home
This trial tests whether using a wearable robotic device at home can improve walking ability in people who have had a stroke. If you have trouble walking due to a stroke, this study may help you regain strength and mobility.
Yongin-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 19–79 - NCT07635758RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2

This trial tests whether special cells from human placenta can help your brain recover after a recent stroke. The treatment is given as an injection and aims to reduce long-term disability.
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT07629791Recruiting
Augmented reality and brain stimulation for balance problems
This study tests whether combining augmented reality (a computer-based visual experience) with a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called tDCS can help improve balance and walking in people with balance impairment. You would receive therapy sessions using both technologies together.
Rawalpindi, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–90 - NCT07635329Recruiting
Home Vision Therapy Guided by Brain Scans
This study tests whether vision rehabilitation exercises done at home, guided by brain imaging, can help people regain vision after a stroke, brain injury, or tumor. Participants will use brain scans to personalize their therapy.

Blood Thinner Study for Irregular Heartbeat
This study tests a new blood thinner to prevent strokes and blood clots in people with atrial fibrillation (a common heart rhythm problem). You may qualify if you have atrial fibrillation and at least one risk factor for stroke, or if you've never taken a blood thinner before.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for stroke?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,681 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.
