Testing a new stent for wide-necked brain aneurysms
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial is testing a new stent (a small mesh tube) designed to treat wide-necked brain aneurysms. If you have this type of aneurysm, the stent helps hold coils in place to block blood flow and prevent rupture.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You have a wide-necked aneurysm (a bulging blood vessel in the brain with a large opening) that is suitable for treatment with a stent.
- You have not had this kind of stent placed for an aneurysm before.
- Your aneurysm did not bleed in the last 30 days.
- You do not have other serious medical problems that would make surgery or anesthesia unsafe.

This trial tests a new stent-assisted coiling procedure for people with wide-neck brain aneurysms. The goal is to see if the treatment is safe and effective, and you might be a good candidate if you haven't had previous aneurysm treatment and are in generally good health.
This trial studies an in-the-aneurysm device placed through a blood vessel to treat certain wide-neck brain aneurysms. It may help prevent aneurysm complications and reduce the risk of needing other procedures, but eligibility depends heavily on your aneurysm shape and health.
This study tests a flexible stent (Choydar flow-directed mesh) to treat unruptured brain aneurysms in the neck area of the carotid or vertebral arteries. It is for people whose aneurysm has not bled and fits certain size and shape limits.
This trial studies whether an intracranial stent (a small mesh tube placed inside the brain artery) improves outcomes and safety for people with severe, symptomatic narrowing of brain arteries. It may help if symptoms continue despite antiplatelet medicine or if blood flow to the brain is poor.
This trial tests a flow-diverting stent for treating certain brain aneurysms located in distal parts of the brain's arteries. It’s for people who have already received this stent and are between 18 and 80 years old.
This trial tests a flow-diverter stent (a small mesh tube) to treat brain aneurysms that are hard to close with standard methods. It may help if you have a wide-neck or other complex aneurysm that hasn't burst.
