A study on a new device for unruptured brain aneurysms
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old
- You have at least one unruptured brain aneurysm that has not been treated before, or one that came back after earlier treatment
- You are willing to have imaging scans and come back for checkups for a year
- You can give your informed consent to take part
- You do not have certain health issues (like severe allergies, pregnancy, or blood clotting problems) that make the device unsafe

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a device called Silk Vista Baby that is placed inside a blood vessel to treat a brain aneurysm (a weak spot in a blood vessel) that hasn't burst. The goal is to see if it helps prevent the aneurysm from growing or bursting.
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 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 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.
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 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.
