NCT ID NCT07353749
First seen Feb 01, 2026 · Last updated Apr 29, 2026 · Updated 12 times
Summary
This study tests whether a short course of the steroid methylprednisolone can reduce the risk of stroke or death within 30 days after a flow-diverter stent is placed to treat an unruptured brain aneurysm. About 864 adults will be randomly assigned to receive either the steroid or a placebo, and neither they nor their doctors will know which they received. The goal is to see if this anti-inflammatory approach can safely lower complications from the procedure.
