Stroke progression study in Afro-Caribbean adults
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how quickly brain damage from a stroke progresses in Afro-Caribbean people. If you are in the hospital for a severe stroke and you meet the criteria, researchers will monitor your condition to understand more about the disease.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are currently hospitalized for a stroke caused by a blocked large blood vessel in the brain.
- You have African ancestry and identify as Afro-Caribbean.
- You live in Guadeloupe.
- You are covered by French social security or an equivalent health insurance.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial follows patients admitted to the neurovascular intensive care unit for acute brain or blood vessel conditions, like stroke. It aims to learn more about their care and outcomes.
This study looks at adults who have had an ischemic stroke confirmed on MRI and a blockage in a major brain artery. Researchers want to understand stroke care in people who can receive standard clot-busting treatment (thrombolysis) and/or clot removal (thrombectomy).
This study looks at how certain proteins in the blood change after a procedure to remove a large blockage in a brain artery. The goal is to better understand recovery after stroke treatment.
This study looks for biological and imaging markers that may predict heart/vascular outcomes after an ischemic stroke. You may join if you are eligible for standard stroke treatment and can complete planned follow-up and MRI scans.
This trial looks at blood “inflammation-related” biomarkers to understand what happens early after certain sudden brain events. It may help doctors predict outcomes and tailor treatment for people like those with stroke types that sometimes need a clot-removal procedure.
This study looks at what predicts memory and thinking problems after different types of stroke or brain bleeding, and how blood-vessel changes relate to recovery. You may be invited if you recently had a stroke/bleed and can complete a baseline check within 6 weeks.
