Stroke drug aims to boost brain recovery after clot removal
NCT ID NCT05559398
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.
What this could mean

- Active substance
- glenzocimab
- What this could lead to
- If successful, glenzocimab could become a standard add-on treatment to improve recovery and reduce disability after a stroke.
