Clinical Trials

Clinical trials test the effectiveness and safety of new strategies for stroke treatment or prevention. Positive results from clinical trials lead to the approval sof new stroke therapies or clarify the optimal uses of currently available medications or procedures.

Participants in clinical trials sign an informed consent that describes the benefits and potential risks of participation. Some new therapies are only available through participation in a clinical trial.

The Stanford Stroke Center has designed or participated in over 100 clinical trials. View more information on some of the current trials available at Stanford:
