NCT ID NCT02860260
First seen Mar 17, 2026 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 8 times
Summary
This study looked at 50 people who had a recent ischemic stroke (a clot blocking blood flow to the brain). Researchers measured levels of a protein called BDNF in their blood before and after they received a standard clot-busting drug (rt-PA). The goal was to see if BDNF levels rise after treatment and if those levels could help predict how well patients recover their thinking, movement, and mood three months later.
