Recruiting studies
- NCT07204977RecruitingPhase 1
Acamprosate for ALS with C9orf72 gene change
This trial tests a medication called acamprosate to see if it can slow down ALS in people who have a specific genetic change (C9orf72). If you have this gene change and ALS, this study might offer a new treatment option.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT07209488Recruiting
Reading help after stroke
This study is for people who have trouble reading after a left-brain stroke. It tests a new way to help improve reading skills through practice and therapy.
Tallahassee, FloridaAges 18–85 - NCT07205263Recruiting
AI-guided minimally invasive surgery for brain bleeding
This trial tests a minimally invasive surgery guided by artificial intelligence to treat spontaneous brain bleeding. It aims to improve recovery by precisely removing the clot with less damage to healthy brain tissue.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT07203625RecruitingPhase 4
Tenecteplase before transfer for basilar artery stroke
This trial tests if a clot-busting drug called Tenecteplase helps people with a severe type of stroke in the back of the brain (basilar artery occlusion) when given 4.5 to 24 hours after symptoms start. Patients will then be moved to a hospital that can remove the clot. The goal is to see if the drug improves recovery.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07196878Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided nerve stimulation to improve walking after stroke
This study tests a new, non-surgical treatment using ultrasound and gentle electrical stimulation (like a tiny pulse) to help improve walking after a stroke. It is for people who have had a stroke and are still working on their walking in physical therapy.
Zaragoza, AragonAges 18–70 - NCT07185971Recruiting
Vision training system for chronic vision loss after brain injury
This study tests a device called PAVE that may help improve vision in people who have lost part of their sight due to stroke, brain injury, or brain surgery. It is for those with ongoing vision problems, not those with eye diseases.
Cedar Rapids, IowaAges 21–80 - NCT07190976Recruiting
EEG monitoring for stroke patients
This study uses EEG (a harmless brain wave test) to monitor stroke patients in the hospital. It aims to learn more about brain activity after a stroke, which could help improve care.
Chaïdári, AthensAges 18 years+ - NCT07190092Recruiting
Brain stimulation for post-stroke muscle stiffness and movement
This study tests a new type of brain stimulation (deep anterior cerebellar stimulation) to see if it can reduce muscle stiffness and improve movement in people who had a stroke 9–36 months ago and still have tightness or weakness that hasn't gotten better with therapy.
BydgoszczAges 18 years+ - NCT07178015Enrolling by invitation
Heart and stroke outcomes in people with silent carotid plaques
This study follows people who have carotid plaques (fatty deposits in neck arteries) that haven't caused symptoms yet. It aims to learn how these plaques affect future heart and brain health, like heart attacks or strokes.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT07180368Recruiting
Managing multiple medications in older adults
This study looks at how to better manage multiple medications in older adults with long-term health conditions. It aims to improve safety and reduce drug-related problems.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 65 years+ - NCT07175519Recruiting
Safety of devices used to treat aneurysms
This study looks at how safe and effective different devices are when used to repair aneurysms through a minimally invasive procedure called endovascular treatment. It may help doctors choose the best treatment for you.
LondonAges Any age - NCT06935513Recruiting
Wearable devices for stroke prevention
This trial tests if using a smart wearable device can help people at high risk for stroke stay active and reduce their risk. You may be able to join if you have certain health conditions or habits that increase your stroke risk.
Nantong, JiangsuAges 30 years+ - NCT07166731Recruiting
Carotid stent vs. medication for recent stroke risk
This trial tests if a carotid artery stent plus medication is better than medication alone at preventing another stroke in people who recently had a stroke or eye blockage caused by a non-narrowing but risky carotid plaque.
Solingen, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT07173062Recruiting
Algae supplement for heart health and gut bacteria
This study tests whether a supplement made from algae can help improve markers of heart health and affect the bacteria in your gut. It is for people age 50 and older who already have a condition like heart disease, kidney disease, or diabetes.
PortoAges 50 years+ - NCT07172789Recruiting
Head down position before clot removal for large stroke
This trial tests whether a specific head-down position before a clot removal procedure improves outcomes for people with a large vessel occlusion stroke. It is for patients who have a confirmed blockage and can wait a short time before the procedure.
Shenyang, None SelectedAges 18 years+ - NCT07164846Recruiting
FES suit for recovery after injury or amputation
This trial tests a special suit that uses mild electrical stimulation to help improve muscle strength, walking, and body functions. It may help people who are at least one week past an amputation or a nervous system injury like stroke or spinal cord injury.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07172165Enrolling by invitation
Improving detection of clot signals in brain ultrasound
This study focuses on improving how doctors classify tiny signals (called microembolic signals) from the brain, which can help detect stroke risk. Your recorded signals—if from a solid source, like a clot—will be reviewed by experts to develop better computer tools.
PortoAges 18 years+ - NCT07157865Recruiting
Prism training for stroke-related neglect
This study compares two types of therapy for people who have had a stroke and have difficulty paying attention to one side of their body or surroundings. It tests whether adding a mild electrical stimulation to prism training helps improve this condition more than prism training alone.
Centerville, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07159178Enrolling by invitation
Shoulder problems and balance in stroke survivors
This study looks at how shoulder problems after a stroke affect balance. Understanding this link could help improve therapy for better stability and fall prevention.
Istanbul, KÜÇÜKÇEKMECEAges 40–80 - NCT07163338Recruiting
Antiphospholipid syndrome in older stroke patients
This study looks for a blood clotting disorder called antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) in people aged 65 and older who have had a stroke or a mini-stroke (TIA). The goal is to understand how common APS is in this group and if it affects recovery.
ReimsAges 65 years+ - NCT07148466Recruiting
Shoulder and arm exercises for stroke with shoulder blade issues
This trial tests if specific shoulder and arm exercises can improve movement and walking in people who had a stroke and have shoulder blade problems. It may help if you have some muscle tightness but can still follow instructions.
Islamabad, Punjab ProvinceAges 40–65 - NCT07145294RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cell therapy to improve thinking after stroke
This trial tests whether tiny particles from stem cells can help people recover thinking and memory after a recent stroke. Doctors will check if the treatment is safe and if it boosts brain function.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07146789Recruiting
Home arm exercise program for stroke recovery
This trial tests a home-based arm exercise program for people who had a single stroke 3 to 12 months ago. The program is designed to help improve arm function and quality of life through repeated, graded movements.
ValenciaAges 18 years+ - NCT07143019Recruiting
A new device for treating wide-necked brain aneurysms
This trial tests a special device (p48/64 MW HPC) to treat certain brain aneurysms that are wide-necked or have a shape that makes them hard to treat. It might help people with aneurysms that haven't ruptured or that have been treated before and are now coming back.

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.
