First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 15, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This study tests a device called Artisse, which is placed inside a brain aneurysm to block blood flow and prevent rupture. It involves 300 people aged 18-75 with wide-neck aneurysms that are either unruptured or recently ruptured. The main goal is to see if the device safely and effectively seals the aneurysm within one year.

Active substance
Artisse™ Intrasaccular Device (a device placed inside the aneurysm to block blood flow)
What this could lead to
If successful, this device could offer a new, less invasive way to treat wide-neck brain aneurysms, potentially reducing the risk of rupture or rebleeding.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage study with 300 people, so results may not apply to everyone. Risks include stroke, incomplete aneurysm closure, or need for retreatment.
