Flow-diverting devices for middle cerebral artery aneurysms
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial compares two treatments for a type of brain aneurysm at the fork of the middle cerebral artery that has not bled. It tests whether a flow-diverting device or a stent-assisted coiling is better at closing the aneurysm while keeping nearby blood vessels open.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have an unruptured, wide-necked aneurysm at the fork of the middle cerebral artery (confirmed by a scan like CTA or DSA).
- You are between 18 and 70 years old.
- You do not have serious organ problems (like severe heart, liver, or kidney disease), active cancer, or chronic inflammatory disease.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You do not have a major neurological disability (like being unable to walk or care for yourself).

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 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 trial tests a special metal mesh tube, called a flow diverter, to treat unruptured brain aneurysms. The goal is to see how safe and effective it is for preventing strokes.
This study looks at treatment options for aneurysms in a specific brain artery (the middle cerebral artery). It may help by guiding safer, more appropriate surgical or catheter-based treatment for aneurysms that fit certain health and imaging criteria.
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 trial compares a flow diverter device to standard endovascular treatment for unruptured wide-neck brain aneurysms at a bifurcation. If you have this type of aneurysm, this study may help determine which treatment works better.
