NCT ID NCT04852783

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests a device called the Contour System to treat brain aneurysms (weak spots in blood vessels that can burst). The device is placed inside the aneurysm to block blood flow and prevent rupture. The trial involves 250 adults aged 18-75 with a specific type of aneurysm. The goal is to see if the device is safe and effective at sealing the aneurysm, reducing the risk of stroke or death.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Patient is 18-75 years of age at the time of screening. 2. Patient has a single ruptured or unruptured IA requiring treatment. If the patient has an additional IA requiring treatment, the additional IA must not require treatment within 60 days of the index procedure. 3. The target IA must have the following characteristics: * Saccular morphology * Located at a bifurcation in the anterior or posterior circulation * Aneurysm neck diameter between 2 and 10 mm and aneurysm equatorial diameter between 2 and 10.5 mm * Wide-necked, defined as neck size ≥ 4 mm or a dome/neck ratio \< 2 4. Patient may be treated with Contour without the use of additional implanted devices. 5. Patient is able to comply with all aspects of the screening, evaluation, treatment, and the post-procedure follow-up schedule. 6. Patient or legally authorized representative has signed and dated an institutional review board (IRB)/Ethics Committee (EC)-approved written informed consent prior to initiation of any study procedures. FOR PATIENTS WITH UNRUPTURED ANEURYSM 7. Patient meets the criteria outlined in the "Guidelines for the Management of Patients With Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms" as published by the AHA/ASA FOR PATIENTS WITH RUPTURED ANEURYSM 8. Patient meets the criteria outlined in the "Guidelines for the Management of Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: A Guideline for Healthcare Professionals From the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association" as published by the AHA/ASA. 9. Patient must be neurologically stable with Hunt \& Hess Score of I, II or III. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Anatomy or physiology considered unsuitable for endovascular treatment with the Contour device by the implanting physician and/or the Patient Selection Committee 2. Target IA contains other devices/implants (e.g., coils) that could interfere with the correct placement of the Contour device 3. Subject has a known, untreatable hypersensitivity to contrast dye, iodine, or any component of the treatment device. 4. Contraindication to anticoagulants or anti-platelet medications 5. Stenosis of the target IA's parent vessel is \>50% 6. Anticoagulation medications (e.g., warfarin) that cannot be discontinued 7. Acute / chronic renal failure (unless on dialysis) and/or creatinine \> 2.00 mg/dl or \> 182 μmol/L 8. Vascular disease or other vascular anomaly that precluded the necessary access to the aneurysm for use of the study device. 9. Clinical, angiographic or CT evidence of vasospasm, vasculitis, an intracranial tumor (except small meningioma) or any other intracranial vascular malformations on presentation. 10. Conditions placing them at high risk for ischemic stroke or had exhibited ischemic symptoms such as transient ischemic attacks, minor strokes, or stroke-in-evolution within the prior 60-days. 11. Any circulatory, neurovascular, cardiovascular, or neurologic conditions that can result in unstable neurological symptoms (e.g., multiple sclerosis, established seizure disorder). 12. modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score ≥ 2 prior to presentation or rupture (as applicable). 13. SAH from a non-index aneurysm or any other intracranial hemorrhage within 90 days. 14. Physical, neurologic or psychiatric conditions which precluded his/her ability to comply with all aspects of the screening, evaluation, treatment, and the post-procedure follow-up schedule. 15. Pregnant, breastfeeding or planning pregnancy in the next 2 years 16. Subject is enrolled in another device or drug study in which participation could confound study results. 17. Life expectancy of less than 2 years due to an illness or condition other than the index intracranial aneurysm.
