Adding albumin to clot removal for acute stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether giving a protein called albumin directly into the artery, along with the standard clot-removal procedure, helps people recover better from a severe stroke. It may reduce brain swelling and improve outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be at least 18 years old.
- You must have had a stroke caused by a large blood clot in a major brain artery.
- The clot must have been treated with a mechanical thrombectomy (a procedure to remove it) and successfully reopened the artery.
- Your stroke symptoms must be moderate to severe (NIHSS score of 6 or higher).
- The procedure must have started within 24 hours of the stroke beginning.
- You must not have significant bleeding in the brain or certain severe heart, kidney, or lung conditions.

This study tests whether giving a protein called albumin directly into the artery during clot removal helps improve recovery after a severe stroke. Albumin is a natural blood protein that may protect brain cells.
This trial tests whether filtering your blood with a special device soon after a stroke clot is removed can improve recovery. It is for people who have had a large vessel stroke in the front part of the brain and have had a successful clot removal procedure.
This trial tests whether giving albumin, a protein naturally found in blood, can improve recovery after a large artery stroke when given along with a procedure to remove the clot. It's for people aged 18-80 who have a stroke from a blockage in the front part of the brain and can get treatment within 24 hours.
This trial tests if giving a protein called albumin after a large stroke can improve recovery. Albumin may help reduce brain swelling and damage. You may qualify if you had a large stroke in the front part of the brain, got a clot-removal procedure, and meet certain age and health criteria.
This trial tests whether giving albumin (a protein naturally in your blood) can help protect your brain after an ischemic stroke in the front part of your brain. You need to be planning a procedure to open the blocked vessel.
This study tests whether giving the protein albumin can improve recovery after a brain aneurysm has burst. It is for people who have had their aneurysm treated quickly after symptoms started.
