Ceretrieve Device for acute ischemic stroke treatment
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a new device called Ceretrieve that is designed to remove blood clots from large arteries in the brain for people having a severe ischemic stroke. If you are eligible, you will receive the device treatment (a mechanical thrombectomy) within 24 hours of your first symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are having an acute ischemic stroke (a clot blocking blood flow in your brain) and can get treatment within 24 hours of when symptoms started.
- Before this stroke, you were independent and able to do everyday activities without help.
- At the hospital, your stroke severity score (NIHSS) is greater than 6, meaning your stroke is at least moderately severe.
- A brain scan confirms there is a clot in a large artery in your head or neck that can be reached with a special device.
- You do not have a bleeding disorder or other health condition that would make the procedure risky.

This trial tests a new catheter device to remove blood clots from smaller brain arteries in people having a stroke. It aims to see if the device is safe and effective for patients treated within 24 hours of symptoms starting.
This trial tests if removing a large blood clot from the brain up to 3 days after a stroke improves recovery compared to standard medical care alone. It is for patients who have a severe stroke and are otherwise healthy enough for the procedure.
This trial tests a new type of catheter (called iNstroke) to remove blood clots from the brain in people having a stroke. If you are within 24 hours of a major stroke and meet certain health criteria, this study may be an option for you.
This trial tests a new aspiration catheter (a thin tube that sucks out blood clots) used during an emergency procedure to restore blood flow in the brain after a stroke. It's designed for patients treated within 24 hours of stroke symptoms.
This trial tests a new device that removes blood clots in the brain using suction. It is for people having a large-vessel ischemic stroke who can be treated within 8 hours of symptoms starting.
This trial compares two methods for removing blood clots from arteries in the brain during an acute stroke: aspiration (suction) versus stent retriever (a mesh device). The goal is to see which approach works better for patients treated within 24 hours of stroke symptoms.
