Testing Tirofiban to Prevent Stroke After Brain Aneurysm Rupture
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests if a medicine called tirofiban (which helps prevent blood clots) can improve recovery after a brain aneurysm rupture. It is for people who have had their aneurysm treated with a coil and are at risk of a delayed stroke.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 85 years old.
- Your aneurysm was treated with a coil (endovascular coiling) and the doctor says the coiling was complete or nearly complete.
- Your symptoms from the bleeding started less than 72 hours ago.
- You are not currently taking blood thinners like aspirin or clopidogrel for a medical condition.
- You do not have severe kidney disease or are on dialysis.
- You have not had a major surgery, serious injury, or internal bleeding in the past month.

This trial tests whether placing a small drain in the lower back and giving a clot-dissolving medicine (urokinase) into the fluid around the brain can help people recover from a severe bleeding stroke caused by a brain aneurysm. It is for patients who are treated quickly after the bleed.
This trial tests whether the drug cilostazol can prevent delayed brain damage in people who have had bleeding from a brain aneurysm. It is for adults who had their aneurysm treated within 72 hours and are in moderate to serious condition.
This trial tests whether adding cilostazol to standard nimodipine treatment helps people recover better after a brain aneurysm bursts. Both drugs aim to prevent delayed complications from the bleeding.
This study tests whether a medication called tirofiban can help prevent stroke symptoms from getting worse after receiving a clot-busting drug. It is for patients with a narrowed brain artery and ongoing moderate to severe symptoms.
This trial tests the drug tirofiban (a blood thinner) to prevent another stroke in people who have had a mild stroke or high-risk TIA and have a narrowed artery in the brain. It must be started within 24 hours of symptoms.
This trial tests if adding a blood thinner called tirofiban after successful clot removal can improve recovery in people with severe stroke. It is for patients who had a large blockage and are treated within 24 hours of symptoms starting.
