Testing clot-busting drug during stroke treatment for medium vessel blockages
This trial tests whether giving a clot-dissolving medication directly into the brain's blood vessels during a standard procedure (mechanical thrombectomy) can improve outcomes for people with a stroke caused by a blockage in a medium-sized artery. It may be an option for patients who arrive at the hospital within 24 hours of symptom onset and have enough salvageable brain tissue.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07139379Recruiting

Heart-healthy diet and exercise for stroke survivors
This study tests a heart-healthy diet and exercise plan for stroke survivors to improve health and fitness. It is done virtually to make it easy to join from home.
Florence, South CarolinaAges 45–80 - NCT07141303RecruitingPhase 3
Steroid after stroke clot removal for anterior circulation large vessel occlusion

TaipeiAges 20–100 - 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+ - 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+ - 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+ - 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+ - 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+ - 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+ - 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+ - 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 - 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+ - 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 - 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+ - 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+ - 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 - NCT07197996Recruiting
Stroke recovery trial testing an electrical nerve device
This trial is testing a small nerve stimulator device worn on the leg to see if it helps people recover walking ability after a stroke. It is for patients who cannot stand or walk on their own soon after a stroke caused by a blood clot.
Chester, CheshireAges 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+ - NCT07205263Recruiting

- 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.
