Study of blood markers after stroke artery treatment
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how certain proteins in the blood change after a procedure to remove a large blockage in a brain artery. The goal is to better understand recovery after stroke treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You have a large blockage in a major artery in the front part of your brain, and treatment can start within 24 hours of when symptoms began.
- Before the stroke, you were able to live on your own without needing help from others.
- Your stroke is causing at least moderate symptoms (like weakness, trouble speaking, or vision loss).
- You are not eligible if you've had a bleeding stroke, have a bleeding disorder, severe organ problems, or are pregnant.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial compares a procedure to remove a blood clot from a brain artery (endovascular therapy) with standard medicines alone, for people who had a large-vessel stroke more than 24 hours ago (up to 30 days). It aims to see if the procedure can still help improve recovery even after this longer time window, especially if symptoms are fluctuating or worsening.
This trial looks at how blood flow and brain activity change in the first days after a stroke caused by a large blockage in the front part of the brain. It tests if certain patterns can help predict recovery after a procedure to remove the clot.
This trial tests whether putting a small mesh tube (stent) into a blocked artery in the back of the brain can improve recovery after a severe stroke. It is for people who have had a large stroke in this area and can be treated within 24 hours of symptoms starting.
This trial tests a brain-protective approach given through an artery during treatment for an acute ischemic stroke when clot removal (endovascular therapy) is planned. It may help reduce brain injury related to the stroke and procedure.
This study looks at blood markers of inflammation in people who have a stroke caused by a blocked vessel and then have a procedure to remove the clot. It aims to see if these markers can predict how well people recover.
This trial tests if a procedure to remove a large blood clot from the brain (called a thrombectomy) can help people with severe strokes who have a large damaged area. It is for people who can be treated within 24 hours of their stroke starting.
