Flow diverter treatment for small unruptured brain aneurysms
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a new way to treat small, unruptured brain aneurysms using a tiny mesh tube (flow diverter) to redirect blood flow and prevent rupture. It aims to help people with small aneurysms avoid surgery or other risks.
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 (never bled) brain aneurysm that is 10 mm or smaller.
- The aneurysm is located on the main artery in the head or neck (internal carotid or vertebral artery).
- You are able to make your own decision and sign a consent form.
- You have not had a stroke in the past month and you do not have severe narrowing of the brain's blood vessels.
- You cannot be pregnant or breastfeeding, and you must be able to take blood-thinning medication.

This study is testing if a type of stent called a flow-diverter is safe and effective for treating brain aneurysms. It may help patients who have an aneurysm that was found by chance, is causing symptoms, or has already ruptured.
This trial tests a small metal mesh tube (called a flow diverter) that is placed inside the brain artery to treat a type of aneurysm that is not a simple round pouch. The goal is to see if it is safe and helps prevent the aneurysm from growing or bursting.
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 study compares two ways to treat a type of brain aneurysm (a weak spot in a blood vessel) that has not burst. It looks at early problems after using a flow diverter or stent-assisted coiling, to see which might be safer or more effective.
This study uses detailed 3D X-rays and ultrasound to understand how blood flows through a mesh tube (flow diverter) placed in a brain aneurysm. It may help doctors predict and prevent narrowing inside the tube.
This study tests a new device that helps block blood flow into a brain aneurysm to prevent it from bursting. It's for people with an unruptured, wide-necked aneurysm in a specific part of the carotid artery that hasn't been treated before.
