Stroke biobank study for large vessel blockage
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study collects blood and tissue samples from people who had a stroke caused by a blockage in a large artery in the brain. The goal is to learn more about the condition by studying these samples over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You had a stroke because a large artery in your brain was blocked (confirmed by a special X-ray test).
- You are willing to let the study team use your medical records and follow up with you.
- You are able to provide a blood sample or sample of the blockage material.
- You or your family sign a consent form agreeing to join the study.

This study looks at patients who had an ischemic stroke (a type of stroke caused by a blood clot) more than 24 hours ago and have a blockage in a large brain artery. It compares outcomes for those who get a procedure to remove the clot versus those who get only medical treatment.
This trial studies a way to sort and treat people with a specific type of acute ischemic stroke (caused by a blockage in a large brain artery). It may help doctors choose the best next steps—either a procedure or medication—faster and more appropriately.
This study looks at whether certain blood tests taken after a mechanical thrombectomy (a procedure to remove a blood clot from the brain) can help predict how well a patient will recover from a stroke. The goal is to find early signs that might guide future treatment and improve outcomes.
This study is collecting information from people in Southwest China who have had a stroke caused by a blocked large or medium artery. The goal is to learn more about these strokes and how to treat them better.
This trial studies whether a mechanical procedure to remove a blocked artery can help people with an ischemic stroke caused by a large artery blockage, even when treatment starts 24–72 hours after symptoms began. It also checks that only patients with “salvageable” brain tissue on CT scans are treated.
This study records outcomes for people having an acute ischemic stroke treated with an endovascular (catheter-based) procedure. It may help doctors understand how clot-removal treatment works in different patients and hospitals.
