Magnesium therapy after clot removal for stroke
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests if giving magnesium into the brain's arteries after removing a clot can improve recovery from a stroke. It is meant for patients who have already had their large artery clot removed.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a stroke caused by a blockage in a major brain artery (like the internal carotid or middle cerebral artery).
- Your stroke symptoms are moderate to severe (NIHSS score between 6 and 20).
- You were able to do most daily activities before this stroke (mRS 0, 1, or 2).
- Your doctor plans to remove the clot with a procedure called mechanical thrombectomy.
- After the procedure, blood flow is effectively restored (TICI 2a or better).
- You have not taken certain medications like blood thinners, digoxin, or sedatives outside of hospital use.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests if injecting a cooled magnesium sulfate solution into the brain artery, along with standard clot removal, can improve outcomes for people having a major stroke. The study focuses on strokes caused by a blockage in a large artery at the front of the brain within the past 24 hours.
This trial tests adding a cooled magnesium solution directly into the brain artery during standard clot removal to see if it helps limit brain damage and improve recovery. The magnesium and cooling aim to protect brain tissue while the clot is being taken out.
This trial tests whether MT200605 can help people who recently had an ischemic stroke (a type of stroke caused by a blocked blood vessel). The drug is given within 24 hours of symptoms starting, and you may join even if you received clot-busting treatment already.
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 Phase 3 trial studies whether removing a clot using a catheter (endovascular thrombectomy) works better for certain types of acute ischemic stroke. It focuses on people with a blocked neck artery plus a blockage in the brain, and who can’t get or didn’t respond to IV clot-busting medicine.
This trial tests if giving a steroid (methylprednisolone) directly into the brain artery after successful clot removal improves recovery. It is for people who had a large stroke in the front part of the brain and got the clot out within 24 hours.
