• Conditions: Cerebral Aneurysm Unruptured; Cerebral Aneurysm
• Interventions: Device: Cerebral flow diverter

• Registration Number: NCT05774782
• Lead Sponsor: Sinomed Neurovita Technology Inc.

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the cerebral flow diverter in the endovascular treatment of wide-necked cerebral aneurysms

Detailed Description

The investigation is a prospective, multi-center, single arm clinical study. The trial is anticipated to last from March 2023 to January 2025 with 143 subjects recruited in around 10 China centers. The population for this study is subjects with wide-necked intracranial aneurysms who are suitable candidates for flow diverter implantation. Patients fulfilling all of the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria will be enrolled after offering informed consent form. The study consists of six visits including preoperative screening, operation date, 7days or at discharge, 30 days, 180 days, and 1 year. The primary endpoint is success aneurysm occlusion at 1 year post procedure.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Age 18 years to 75 years, male or non-pregnant female.
2. Unruptured wide-necked cerebral aneurysms confirmed by preoperative imaging (Wide-necked is defined as width ≥ 4 mm or a dome-to-neck ratio < 2).
3. Parent vessel with a diameter range of 1.75-6.0 mm.
4. Those who voluntarily participate in the study and sign informed consent form.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Subject with target aneurysms are blood blister-like aneurysms, pseudoaneurysms, arteriovenous malformation, moyamoya disease-related aneurysm, or multiple aneurysms that cannot be treated with a single stent.
2. Severe arteriosclerosis or tortuosity of intracranial artery, and the device is difficult to reach the target vessel.
3. Subject with target aneurysm previously treated with craniotomy or other endovascular interventional therapy.
4. Known sensitivity to antiplatelet medications, anticoagulant medications, radiographic contrast agents, anesthetic, nickel, platinum-tungsten alloy, platinum-iridium alloy, and poly-N-[Tris(hydroxymethyl)methyl] acrylamide (poly-NTMA).
5. Severe respiratory system, liver and kidney diseases (such as creatinine ≥ 3.0 mg/dL (except dialysis)) or blood coagulation disorders before operation.
6. Platelet count is less than 100×109/L, international normalized ratio (INR) is more than 1.5.
7. Hospitalized surgical treatment within the previous 30 days or planned within the next 180 days after operation.
8. Severe neurological deficit that renders the patient incapable of living independently (modified Rankin score ≥3).
9. The survival expectation is less than 1 year.
10. All subjects who are participating in other drug/medical device clinical trials and have not completed the programme requirements
11. Inapplicable for this study at the investigators' viewpoints.

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Cerebral flow diverter	Cerebral flow diverter	The cerebral flow diverter in the endovascular treatment of wide-necked cerebral aneurysms

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Success aneurysm occlusion at 1 year post procedure	1 year post procedure	The Raymond-Roy occlusion classification (RROC) is an angiographic classification scheme for grading the occlusion of flow diverter treated cerebral aneurysms (class I: complete obliteration, class II: residual neck, class III: residual aneurysm). Higher class represent a worse outcome. The percentage of Success aneurysm occlusion in which class 1 or 2 is achieved on the Raymond Scale at the 1 year follow-up angiographic assessments will be evaluated.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Immediate procedural success rate	Intra-procedure	Intraoperative cerebrovascular imaging is performed to determine whether the investigational device positions exactly and covers the aneurysm neck effectively.
Ischemic cerebrovascular events caused by thromboembolism at 180 days and 1 year post procedure	180 days and 1 year post procedure	Percentage (%) of participants who experienced ischemic cerebrovascular events caused by thromboembolism.
Complete aneurysm occlusion rate at 180 days and 1 year post procedure	180 days, 1 year post procedure	Complete occlusion was defined as complete obliteration of the aneurysm sac, including the neck (Raymond I).
All-cause mortality at 30 days, 180 days and 1 year post procedure	30 days, 180 days and 1 year post procedure	Deaths due to any cause are calculated.
Any stroke at 30 days, 180 days and 1 year post procedure	30 days, 180 days and 1 year post procedure	Incidence of any stroke including ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke.
Incidence of operation or device-related adverse events/serious adverse events during hospitalization, 30 days, 180 days and 1 year post procedure	hospitalization, 30 days, 180 days and 1 year post procedure	Percentage (%) of participants who experienced adverse events/serious adverse events.
Rate of Device defect	within 1 year of whole trial	Device defects refer to the unreasonable risks that may endanger human health and life safety during the normal use of medical devices in the course of clinical trials, such as label errors, quality problems, failures, etc.
Major stroke in the territory supplied by the treated artery or neurological death at 180 days and 1 year post procedure	180 days and 1 year post procedure	National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) was used to assess patients after stroke in an 11-item scale with potential scores ranging from 0 to 42. Higher values represent a worse outcome. A major stroke is defined as a new neurological event which is ipsilateral and in the vascular distribution territory of the stenting procedure and that results in an increase of ≥ 4 on the NIHSS as compared to baseline.
Success aneurysm occlusion at 180 days post procedure	180 days post procedure	The Raymond-Roy occlusion classification (RROC) is an angiographic classification scheme for grading the occlusion of flow diverter treated cerebral aneurysms (class I: complete obliteration, class II: residual neck, class III: residual aneurysm). Higher class represent a worse outcome. The percentage of Success aneurysm occlusion in which class 1 or 2 is achieved on the Raymond Scale at the 180 days follow-up angiographic assessments will be evaluated.
Complete aneurysm occlusion without significant parent artery stenosis (≤50%) or retreatment at 180 days and 1 year post procedure	180 days, 1 year post procedure	Proportion of subjects with complete occlusion of the target aneurysm, ≤50% stenosis of the parent artery at the target cerebral aneurysms at 1 year as assessed by angiography, and in whom an unplanned alternative treatment of the target cerebral aneurysms had not been performed within 1 year.
Target aneurysmal hemorrhage at 180 days and 1 year post procedure	180 days and 1 year post procedure	Percentage (%) of participants who experienced a Target aneurysmal hemorrhage.
