Could a common antibiotic boost stroke recovery? new trial aims to find out
NCT ID NCT07594314
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether the antibiotic minocycline can improve recovery in people who have had a major stroke and undergone a procedure to remove a blood clot from a large brain artery. Even when the clot is successfully removed, many patients still have significant disability. The trial will give minocycline or a placebo soon after the procedure to see if it reduces brain inflammation and leads to better function. About 860 adults with moderate to severe stroke will participate.
