Flow diverter vs standard treatment for wide-neck brain aneurysms
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old.
- You have an unruptured wide-neck brain aneurysm at a fork in the artery.
- You have not had a stroke in the past month.
- You are able to take blood thinners like aspirin or clopidogrel.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.

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 study uses detailed 3D X-rays and ultrasound to understand how blood flows through a mesh tube (flow diverter) placed in a brain aneurysm. It may help doctors predict and prevent narrowing inside the tube.
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 tests a new way to treat small, unruptured brain aneurysms using a tiny mesh tube (flow diverter) to redirect blood flow and prevent rupture. It aims to help people with small aneurysms avoid surgery or other risks.
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 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.
