Testing maraviroc for arm recovery after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether the drug maraviroc can help people who recently had a stroke recover arm movement faster. You may be eligible if your stroke was within the last 7 days and your arm is weak but you can still wiggle your fingers.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had a blockage-type stroke within the past week.
- One of your arms is weak, but you can still move your fingers a little.
- You are at least 18 years old and able to give consent.
- You do not have other conditions like Parkinson's or ALS that affect movement.
- You do not have severe kidney or liver disease, or a risk of very low blood pressure when standing.

This trial tests if the drug Maraviroc (compared to a placebo) can improve stroke recovery when added to standard rehabilitation. It is for people who have had a specific type of stroke (ischemic anterior circulation) and have weakness on one side of the body, and are already in inpatient rehab.
This study looks at how the brain reorganizes itself after a stroke. It uses brain scans to see if early changes can predict how much arm function you might recover, which could help guide rehabilitation.
This study tests a new rehabilitation program for people who have had a stroke within the last 6 months. It focuses on improving arm weakness using special therapy techniques.
This trial tests whether virtual reality (VR) games and tasks can help improve arm and hand movement after a stroke. It is for people who had a first stroke 1 to 6 months ago and have some arm weakness but can sit up for 30 minutes.
This trial tests whether using virtual reality can help improve arm and hand function after a stroke. It compares this modern rehabilitation approach to standard therapy for people who had a stroke 3 to 12 months ago.
This study tests whether three medications (Telmisartan, Cilostazol, and Metformin) combined with robotic arm training can help people improve arm movement and strength after a chronic stroke. You would participate in supervised training sessions using a robotic rehabilitation system.
