Aspiration catheter for large vessel stroke treatment
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a special aspiration catheter to remove a large blood clot from a major brain artery in people having an acute ischemic stroke. The goal is to see if it safely restores blood flow when used within 8 hours of symptom start.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 or older.
- Your stroke must be moderate to severe (NIHSS score of 6 or higher).
- You need a large blocked artery in the brain (internal carotid or M1 segment) that can be reached with a special aspiration catheter.
- You must be able to start the procedure within 8 hours of when you were last seen well.
- You should have been independent before the stroke (able to do all daily activities on your own).

This trial tests a new type of catheter (called iNstroke) to remove blood clots from the brain in people having a stroke. If you are within 24 hours of a major stroke and meet certain health criteria, this study may be an option for you.
This trial tests a new aspiration catheter (a thin tube that sucks out blood clots) used during an emergency procedure to restore blood flow in the brain after a stroke. It's designed for patients treated within 24 hours of stroke symptoms.
This trial tests a new catheter device to remove blood clots from smaller brain arteries in people having a stroke. It aims to see if the device is safe and effective for patients treated within 24 hours of symptoms starting.
This trial tests a new device that removes blood clots in the brain using suction. It is for people having a large-vessel ischemic stroke who can be treated within 8 hours of symptoms starting.
This trial tests a new catheter (Toro 88 Super Bore) for removing blood clots in people having a severe stroke within the last 24 hours. It may help if you need a mechanical thrombectomy.
