NCT ID NCT06693011

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This clinical trial is testing a device called the Contour Neurovascular System for people with wide-necked brain aneurysms. The device is placed inside the aneurysm to block blood flow and prevent it from rupturing. The study will enroll 250 participants and follow them for two years to see if the treatment is safe and effective.
