First seen Jul 08, 2026 · Last updated Jul 09, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This clinical trial tests whether adding the drug glenzocimab to standard endovascular therapy (a procedure to remove blood clots) improves recovery in people with acute ischemic stroke. The study includes adults aged 18 and older who are eligible for clot removal within 24 hours of stroke onset. The main goal is to see if glenzocimab reduces disability at 90 days compared to placebo.
