Stent-assisted coil treatment for ruptured brain aneurysms
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests if using a stent with coils to treat a ruptured brain aneurysm is safe and effective. It is for people who have a specific type of aneurysm (wide-necked, cystic) and are treated soon after the rupture.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old
- You have a ruptured brain aneurysm that is cystic (not a tear or false aneurysm) and has a wide neck (at least 4mm)
- The treatment starts within 7 days of the last bleeding event
- You have a mild to moderate level of consciousness after the rupture (Hunt and Hess grade 1-3)
- You can use intravenous antiplatelet drugs (medicines to prevent blood clots)

This study tests a new coil device to treat brain aneurysms, which are bulging blood vessels in the brain that can be dangerous. The coil is placed inside the aneurysm to block blood flow and prevent rupture.
This trial is testing a new stent (a small mesh tube) designed to treat wide-necked brain aneurysms. If you have this type of aneurysm, the stent helps hold coils in place to block blood flow and prevent rupture.
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 tests whether a gentle arm-cuff therapy (ischemic conditioning) may help reduce risk of small brain injuries after stent-assisted coiling for an unruptured aneurysm. Participants receive standard coiling plus the arm-cuff therapy during the procedure.
This trial tests a new device that is placed inside a brain aneurysm to block blood flow and prevent it from bursting. It may be an option for people with a single brain aneurysm that has not been treated yet.
This trial tests if taking aspirin before and after a procedure to fix an unruptured brain aneurysm (coiling) helps prevent complications. Aspirin is a common blood thinner that might reduce the risk of blood clots or other problems after the procedure.
