Summary

This study tests a new coil device (Kaneka i-ED) in 50 people with wide-necked brain aneurysms. The coil is placed inside the aneurysm to block blood flow and prevent rupture. Researchers will check how well it works, how safe it is, and whether it saves money compared to standard treatments over 18 months.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Kaneka i-ED coil (a medical device used to block blood flow into brain aneurysms)
What this could lead to: If successful, this coil could offer a safer, more cost-effective way to treat wide-necked brain aneurysms, reducing the need for repeat procedures.
What could go wrong: This is a small, early-stage study with only 50 participants and no control group. The device may not work better than existing options, and there are risks of serious complications like bleeding or stroke.
