Studying a new device for treating brain aneurysms
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 22 and 80 years old.
- You have a single brain aneurysm that has not burst and is located in a specific part of the internal carotid artery.
- The aneurysm is either wide-necked (neck is at least 4 mm or ratio of dome to neck less than 2) or is large or giant (over 10 mm).
- The artery around the aneurysm is between 2.0 and 5.5 mm wide.
- You have not had a stroke or brain bleed in the past 6 months, and no other major health issues like bleeding disorders or serious allergies.

This trial tests a device called a flow modulation device to treat certain brain aneurysms. It aims to see if the device is safe and works well for people with aneurysms that have not burst.
This study is a registry that collects information from patients who have had a brain aneurysm treated with a special type of device called a flow diverter or flow disruptor. By joining, you help doctors learn more about how well these treatments work over time and which patients benefit most.
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.
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 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.
