Large vessel blockages in recent stroke patients
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how often people who have a recent stroke have a blockage in a large blood vessel in the brain. It may help doctors better understand and treat strokes in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You had a stroke caused by a blocked blood vessel (ischemic stroke) within the last 24 hours
- You had a special scan (CTA or MRA) of your brain's blood vessels when you arrived at the hospital

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 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 blood flow in the small vessels of the brain is affected after a stroke or in cerebral small vessel disease. It aims to better understand these conditions, which could help improve care in the future.
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 study collects blood and tissue samples from people who had a stroke caused by a blockage in a large artery in the brain. The goal is to learn more about the condition by studying these samples over time.
This trial studies a way to sort and treat people with a specific type of acute ischemic stroke (caused by a blockage in a large brain artery). It may help doctors choose the best next steps—either a procedure or medication—faster and more appropriately.
