Improving blood flow recovery after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a new approach to restore blood flow in the brain after a stroke. It aims to improve recovery and brain function in people with a blocked large artery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 90 years old.
- You had a stroke caused by a blocked major artery in the brain (like the internal carotid or middle cerebral artery).
- Brain scans show there is still some brain tissue that can be saved.
- Your stroke symptoms are moderate to severe (NIHSS score of 5 or higher).
- You do not have a large area of dead brain tissue, bleeding in the brain, or other serious conditions that would make the treatment unsafe.

This trial tests a new drug, J147, for people who recently had a stroke caused by a blocked artery and have already had a procedure to reopen that artery. It aims to see if the drug can improve recovery.
This trial tests if a special technique called 'ischemic post-conditioning' can improve recovery after a large vessel stroke. It is for people who have had a major blockage in a brain artery that was successfully opened with a clot retrieval procedure.
This trial tests whether a special blood-flow technique applied right after removing a clot from your brain artery can help you recover better from stroke. You would receive this treatment during your clot-removal procedure if you qualify.
This trial tests a clot-busting drug called tenecteplase, given directly into the blocked artery, for people who have had a stroke caused by a medium-sized brain vessel blockage within the last 24 hours. It aims to see if this treatment is safe and effective in improving recovery.
This study enrolls people who had an acute ischemic stroke (caused by a blood clot) and received emergency treatment to remove the clot. Researchers want to understand why some patients recover well while others don't, by measuring how the brain regulates its own blood flow after treatment.
This trial tests a new clot-busting medicine called tenecteplase, given directly into the blood vessel in the brain, to treat strokes caused by a blockage in a medium-sized artery. The goal is to see if it can help restore blood flow and reduce disability, especially for patients who can be treated within 24 hours of stroke onset.
