Clot removal after 24 hours for stroke patients
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 85 years old
- You had a stroke caused by a large clot in a major brain artery
- It has been more than 24 hours but less than 72 hours since you were last seen well
- You had little or no disability before the stroke (able to do daily activities)
- Brain scans show the clot is in a reachable location and the damaged area is not too large
- You are able and willing to come for follow-up visits

This trial compares two ways of removing a blood clot from a large artery in the brain during an ischemic stroke. It might help you by finding out which method restores blood flow more safely and effectively.
This trial compares a procedure to remove the blockage (endovascular therapy) with the best medications alone for people who have a mild stroke caused by a large blocked artery in the brain. The goal is to see if the procedure can improve recovery better than medicine alone.
This study tests whether a minimally invasive procedure to remove a large blood clot from the main artery at the back of the brain can help people who have had a severe stroke. It aims to improve recovery and reduce disability.
This study tests a procedure to remove blood clots from large arteries in the back of the brain up to 14 days after a stroke starts. It may help people who have had a stroke more than a day ago and still have significant disability.
This trial compares a procedure to remove a large blood clot from the brain (thrombectomy) with standard medical care for people who had a stroke 24 to 72 hours ago but still have some blood flow around the clot. It aims to see if the procedure can help improve recovery even when started later than usual.
This trial compares a procedure to remove a blood clot from a brain artery (endovascular therapy) with standard medicines alone, for people who had a large-vessel stroke more than 24 hours ago (up to 30 days). It aims to see if the procedure can still help improve recovery even after this longer time window, especially if symptoms are fluctuating or worsening.
