Testing a new device for brain aneurysms
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have one unruptured aneurysm in a specific brain artery, with a neck 4 mm or wider or no clear neck, and the balloon-like part is 35 mm or smaller.
- The blood vessel where the device will go is between 2.0 mm and 5.0 mm wide.
- You have risk factors like smoking, high blood pressure, diabetes, or a family history of aneurysm rupture that make treatment likely more beneficial than waiting.
- You have not had prior treatment on the same aneurysm and are able to take blood-thinning medicines like aspirin or clopidogrel.
- You do not have serious health problems like recent stroke, active infection, or a life expectancy less than 5 years.
- You are not pregnant and can complete follow-up visits.

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 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 Surpass Elite with GUARDian Flow Diverter to treat a single, unruptured brain aneurysm. If you have a wide-neck aneurysm on the internal carotid artery or its branches, this study may help determine if the device is safe and effective for you.
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 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 special device (p48/64 MW HPC) to treat certain brain aneurysms that are wide-necked or have a shape that makes them hard to treat. It might help people with aneurysms that haven't ruptured or that have been treated before and are now coming back.
