- NCT06388148Recruiting
Clot removal for very large strokes
This trial tests a procedure to remove a large blood clot in the brain (mechanical thrombectomy) for people who have a very large stroke. It aims to see if removing the clot can improve recovery, even for those with severe strokes.
Hengyang, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT06403267RecruitingPhase 2
Testing NoNO-42 for moderate to severe ischemic stroke
This study tests a new drug called NoNO-42 for people having a moderate to severe ischemic stroke. You can join if you get clot-busting medicine within 4.5 hours of your stroke and may also have a procedure to remove the clot.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18–90 - NCT06418698Recruiting
Brain artery calcium and clot removal outcomes
This study looks at whether calcium buildup in brain arteries affects how well clot removal (mechanical thrombectomy) works for stroke patients. You may be able to join if you have a large artery blockage, a CT scan was done, and you are having the clot removal procedure.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06494436Recruiting
Real-world study of MicroVention devices for aneurysms or stroke
This study collects information from routine medical care to learn how well MicroVention devices work in real-world settings for people being treated for brain aneurysms or stroke from a blocked artery. Your doctor has already decided to use one of these devices as part of your standard treatment.
Vigo, PontevedraAges Any age - 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+ - NCT06560203Recruiting
Basilar artery stroke trial for later treatment
This trial tests if endovascular therapy (a procedure to remove a clot) can help people who have had a stroke in the back part of the brain (basilar artery) and can be treated within 72 hours, even if they are not eligible for clot-dissolving medicine. The treatment may improve recovery compared to standard care alone.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06352619Recruiting
Lowering blood pressure after clot removal for stroke
This trial tests whether lowering blood pressure soon after a clot-removal procedure for stroke can improve recovery. It is for people whose blood pressure remains high after the procedure.
Sydney, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT06629116Recruiting
Albumin treatment for large strokes after thrombectomy
This trial tests if giving a protein called albumin after a large stroke can improve recovery. Albumin may help reduce brain swelling and damage. You may qualify if you had a large stroke in the front part of the brain, got a clot-removal procedure, and meet certain age and health criteria.
Zhangzhou, FujianAges 18–80 - NCT06639360Recruiting
Magnetic stimulation after clot removal for stroke recovery
This trial tests whether adding magnetic brain stimulation (TMS) after clot-removal surgery can help people recover better from a stroke. It is for people who had a moderate-to-severe stroke in the front part of the brain and had the clot removed.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–80 - 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 - NCT06654453Recruiting
Clot removal during heart catheterization after clot-busting medicine
This study tests whether removing a clot with a special suction device during a heart catheterization helps people who already received a clot-busting medicine for a severe heart attack. It may improve blood flow and reduce damage to the heart muscle.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT06658197RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing a new clot-busting drug for severe stroke
This study tests a medication called tenecteplase, given before a procedure to remove a large blood clot in the brain. It may help people who have had a severe stroke within the last 4.5 hours.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06665386Recruiting
Cooling infusion with clot removal for severe stroke
This study tests whether cooling the brain during clot removal (thrombectomy) can improve recovery after a severe stroke caused by a large blood vessel blockage. Researchers will use blood tests to find markers that may predict who benefits most.
Dalian, LiaoningAges 18–80 - NCT06677970RecruitingPhase 3
Blood Pressure Control After Stroke Thrombectomy
This trial tests whether carefully lowering blood pressure after a mechanical clot removal procedure for stroke can improve outcomes. If you've had a large vessel stroke that was successfully treated with thrombectomy, this study will help guide blood pressure management in the recovery period.
Seoul, SeoulAges 20 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+ - NCT06697314Recruiting
Clot removal for acute pulmonary embolism with heart strain
This study tests a new device (AlphaVac) that removes blood clots from the lungs using a thin tube inserted through a vein. It may be an option for people with acute pulmonary embolism who have signs of heart strain or low blood pressure.
PoznanAges 18 years+ - NCT06758609Recruiting
Brain cooling plus clot removal for large artery stroke
This trial tests a new treatment that combines cooling the brain with a catheter and removing the clot to restore blood flow — for people who have had a major stroke in the front part of the brain within the last 24 hours.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–85 - NCT06904911RecruitingPhase 2
Study of tenecteplase into the artery after clot removal for stroke
This study tests a clot-dissolving drug called tenecteplase given directly into the artery after a mechanical thrombectomy (clot removal). The goal is to see if it helps improve blood flow to the small vessels in the brain after the main clot is removed.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06941961Recruiting
Brain stimulation therapy after stroke clot removal
This trial tests if a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called iTBS can help people recover motor function after a stroke caused by a large clot in the front part of the brain. It is for patients who had the clot removed successfully with a procedure within 24 hours of symptoms starting.
Changchun, JilinAges 18–85 - NCT06949228RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Intra-Arterial Tenecteplase After Clot Removal for Stroke
This trial tests whether giving a clot-busting drug called tenecteplase directly into the brain artery after a successful mechanical clot removal can improve recovery for people with a certain type of stroke. The goal is to see if it safely helps clear any remaining tiny clots and reduces disability.
Toledo, OhioAges 18–85 - NCT07001852Recruiting
Endovascular therapy for late window stroke patients selected by automated CT
This trial tests whether removing a clot from a large brain artery up to 72 hours after a stroke helps people recover better than standard care. It uses a special computer program on a regular CT scan to decide who might benefit.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18–80 - NCT07069452Recruiting
Predicting recovery after stroke with brain scan scores
This study looks at how well different scores from brain scans can predict recovery after a stroke. It is for people who had an ischemic stroke and were treated with both clot-dissolving medicine and a clot removal procedure.
GonesseAges 18 years+ - NCT07095660Recruiting
Catheter device for leg vein blockages

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for thrombectomy?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 133 recruiting thrombectomy 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 thrombectomy 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 thrombectomy 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.
