CEREBRAL INFARCTION

This study is testing whether stem cells taken from a person's own bone marrow and then given back through the veins and nose can improve brain and nerve function. It includes 500 people with various conditions like stroke, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and nerve damage. The goal is …

This Phase 3 trial tests whether the drug tirofiban can help people who have had a stroke but missed the usual treatment window (more than 24 hours after symptoms start). The study uses a special MRI scan to select patients whose stroke is caused by a specific type of artery bloc…

This study looks at people over 65 who recently had a stroke with no clear cause. Doctors suspect they may have hidden atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) not caught in the hospital. The trial compares two treatments: a blood thinner (apixaban) or aspirin, to see which b…

This study tests whether adding the drug cilostazol to the usual two blood thinners (aspirin and clopidogrel) can better prevent early stroke recurrence in people who had a stroke caused by narrowed arteries in the brain or neck. About 2,340 adults will be enrolled within 72 hour…

This study tests whether giving aspirin within 3 hours of clot-busting treatment for stroke can improve recovery without causing dangerous bleeding. About 1,184 adults who had an ischemic stroke will receive either aspirin or a placebo. The goal is to see if early aspirin leads t…

This phase 3 trial is testing whether two drugs—colchicine (used for gout) and ticagrelor (a blood thinner)—can prevent future strokes, heart attacks, and other vascular events in people who have already had a stroke. About 2,800 high-risk participants will be enrolled. The goal …

This study is testing a new type of MRI scan called eASL that measures blood flow in the brain without needing a contrast injection. It will include 50 children with conditions like Moya-moya or sickle cell disease that affect brain arteries. The goal is to see if eASL gives clea…

This study tests whether stimulating the vagus nerve through both ears can improve movement and sensation in people who recently had a stroke. Forty participants will receive daily 30-minute sessions for four weeks. Researchers will measure changes in motor function, sensation, a…

This study looks at blood clots removed from stroke patients during a procedure called thrombectomy. Researchers will also take a small blood sample. They want to see if the clot's makeup and blood markers can tell us more about what caused the stroke, how well treatment worked, …

This study is building a large registry of people who have had a stroke and still have symptoms. The goal is to connect them with researchers studying new ways to improve recovery. No treatments or tests are given—just observation and data collection.
