Comparing two ways to remove clots in stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests two methods of removing a large blood clot from a brain artery during stroke. The goal is to see which method helps restore blood flow faster and more safely.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having a stroke from a blood clot in a large brain artery (like the internal carotid or middle cerebral artery).
- You can get treatment within 24 hours of your first stroke symptoms.
- You are 18 years or older.
- Your brain scan shows no bleeding before treatment.
- You or your family can give permission to join the study.

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 study looks at patients who had an ischemic stroke (a type of stroke caused by a blood clot) more than 24 hours ago and have a blockage in a large brain artery. It compares outcomes for those who get a procedure to remove the clot versus those who get only medical treatment.
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 two methods of removing blood clots from large arteries in the brain during a stroke: suction alone versus a combination of suction and a stent-like device. It aims to see which technique works better to restore blood flow and improve outcomes for people with severe acute strokes.
This trial tests a procedure to remove a large blood clot in the brain (mechanical thrombectomy) for people who have a very large stroke. It aims to see if removing the clot can improve recovery, even for those with severe strokes.
This trial tests a new catheter device (ANA Funnel) for removing large blood clots from the brain in people having a disabling stroke. The goal is to see if it safely removes clots better than standard treatment.
