New flow-diverting device for wide-necked brain aneurysms
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 22 and 80 years old.
- You must have one unruptured brain aneurysm located in a specific area of the internal carotid artery (a major artery in the brain).
- The aneurysm must be 'wide-necked' (the opening is large), and either small, medium, large, or giant.
- Your blood vessels must be large enough (2.0-5.5 mm) and not too narrow or twisted for the device.
- You must not have had prior treatment for the target aneurysm, and no recent stroke or major brain bleed.
- You must be able to take blood-thinning medications and have no serious health conditions that would make the procedure unsafe.

This study tests a new stent, a small mesh tube placed inside the artery to block blood flow to a wide-neck brain aneurysm, reducing its rupture risk. It aims to see how safe and effective this stent is for people aged 22–80.
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 studies an in-the-aneurysm device placed through a blood vessel to treat certain wide-neck brain aneurysms. It may help prevent aneurysm complications and reduce the risk of needing other procedures, but eligibility depends heavily on your aneurysm shape and health.
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.
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 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.
