Testing a new device to treat brain aneurysms
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests a new device that blocks blood flow into brain aneurysms (balloon-like bulges in blood vessels). It is for patients with a specific type of unruptured or recently ruptured aneurysm, located in three common places in the brain, that has a wide neck.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old.
- You have an unruptured aneurysm or a single ruptured aneurysm with mild to moderate symptoms (Hunt-Hess grade I to III).
- The aneurysm is saccular (shaped like a balloon) and located in the front part of the brain's blood supply (anterior communicating artery, middle cerebral artery bifurcation, or basilar tip).
- The aneurysm is 2 to 15 millimeters wide and has a neck width of at least 4 millimeters (or the dome-to-neck ratio is between 1 and 2).
- You haven't had a stroke, mini-stroke, or new neurological symptoms in the last 30 days, and you are not on blood thinners or have a bleeding disorder.

This trial tests a new device to block blood flow into unruptured brain aneurysms (balloon-like bulges). It is for adults whose aneurysm has not bled and fits specific size requirements. The goal is to see if the device is safe and works well.
This trial tests a new device designed to block blood flow into a brain aneurysm from inside the aneurysm itself. It may be an option if you have a single aneurysm that can be treated this way.
This trial tests a new device called the TUBE Device to treat unruptured brain aneurysms that are wide-necked or have a shape that makes them harder to treat. The device is placed inside the blood vessel to block blood flow to the aneurysm and reduce the risk of rupture.
This trial tests a new device called the World Diverter Embolization Device to treat brain aneurysms (a weak spot in a blood vessel that can bulge or burst). The device is placed inside the artery to block blood flow into the aneurysm. This study checks if the device is safe and works well.
This trial tests a device called Silk Vista, a small mesh tube placed inside a brain artery to block blood flow to an unruptured aneurysm (a balloon-like bulge). The goal is to see if it's safe and effective.
This trial tests a new device (LuSeed) to treat unruptured brain aneurysms that have a wide neck. It aims to see if the device is safe and effective for people who need this type of procedure.
