Not Applicable
Recruiting
Conditions
Intracranial Aneurysm
Interventions
Device: Tubridge (MicroPort)
Device: Flow Diverter (Tonbridge)
Registration Number
NCT04799964
Lead Sponsor
Zhuhai Tonbridge Medical Tech. Co., Ltd.
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of the Flow Diverter (Tonbridge) for endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms.

Detailed Description

This is a prospective, multi-center, randomized, open, positive-controlled, non-inferiority trial. This clinical trial is conducted at more than 5 centers in China. Eligible patients are randomized into experimental group using Flow Diverter (Tonbridge) or control group using Tubridge (MicroPort) in a 1:1 ratio. The primary objective of this study is to verify the complete occlusion rate of aneurysms at 12 months of Flow Diverter (Tonbridge) is non-inferior to Tubridge, for treatment of intracranial aneurysms, and evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the Flow Diverter (Tonbridge).

Inclusion Criteria
  • Age 18 to 80 years, any gender;
  • Unruptured intracranial aneurysms locate in the internal carotid artery (ICA) or vertebral artery (VA) with a neck ≥ 4 mm and a maximal diameter ≥ 10 mm, which diagnosed by DSA;
  • The target aneurysm with a parent vessel diameter of 2.0-6.5 mm;
  • Subject or guardian is able to understand the purpose of study, shows sufficient compliance with the study protocol and provides a signed informed consent form.
Exclusion Criteria
  • Diagnosed as multiple aneurysms which cannot be covered by a single stent or with cerebrovascular malformations;
  • Subarachnoid hemorrhage of the target aneurysm within 30 days pre-procedure;
  • Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score > 2 in pre-procedure;
  • Platelet (PLT) < 60×10^9/L or known platelet dysfunction or International Normalized Ratio (INR) > 1.5;
  • Heart, lung, liver and renal failure or other severe diseases (such as brain tumor, systemic infection, disseminated intravascular coagulation, myocardial infarction within 12 months before enrollment, history of severe psychosis);
  • The lesion which is not appropriate for flow diverter delivery and deployment judged by investigators (severe stenosis of parent artery, severe tortuosity of parent artery, stent failing to reach the lesion, etc.);
  • Major surgery within 30 days before enrollment, or intending to receive surgery within 180 days after enrollment;
  • Allergic history of anesthetics and contrast agents, or contraindication for dual antiplatelet or/and anticoagulant therapy;
  • Allergic History of metals such as nickel-titanium alloy;
  • Life expectancy < 12 months;
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women;
  • Subject has participated in other drug or medical device clinical trials within 1 month before signing informed consent;
  • Other conditions judged by the investigators as unsuitable for enrollment.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Complete occlusion rate of aneurysms at 12 months360±45 days post-procedure

Complete occlusion is defined as no contrast agent in the aneurysm (Raymond-Roy class I) which is diagnosed by cerebrovascular DSA at 12 months post-procedure.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Subtotal occlusion rate360±45 days post-procedure

Subtotal occlusion is defined as contrast agents in the aneurysm sac less than 10% which is diagnosed by DSA at 12 months post-procedure.

Incidence of technical complicationsintra-procedure

Technical complications include but not limited to: stent incomplete opening, stent migration, stent herniation into the aneurysm sac, in-stent thrombosis, operation injury, etc.

Incidence of strokewithin 360±45 days

Stroke includes hemorrhagic stroke and symptomatic ischemic stroke.

Operation satisfaction rateintra-procedure

The 5-point Likert scale is used to evaluate the operation satisfaction from three aspects: push performance, retracting performance and release performance. "Operation satisfaction rate" is defined as the proportion of investigational devices or comparators with Likert score ≥ 12 points.

Immediate procedural success rateintra-procedure

Intraoperative cerebrovascular DSA is performed to determine whether the investigational device positions exactly and covers the aneurysm neck effectively.

Complete occlusion rate of aneurysms at 6 months180±30 days post-procedure

Complete occlusion is defined as no contrast agent in the aneurysm (Raymond-Roy class I) which is diagnosed by MRA/CTA at 6 months post-procedure.

Incidence of parent artery stenosis ( > 50%) in target area at 360 days and incidence of parent artery occlusion in target area at 360 days360±45 days post-procedure

Parent artery stenosis in target area is defined as stenosis degree \> 50%. Using postoperative cerebrovascular DSA at 360 days is performed to determine.

Incidence of device deficiencywithin 360±45 days

Device deficiency is the unreasonable risk that may endanger human health and life safety in the normal use of medical devices during clinical trials, such as labeling errors, quality problems, malfunctions, etc.

Incidence of adverse events and incidence of serious adverse eventswithin 360±45 days

"Incidence of adverse events" is the proportion of subjects with adverse events using the investigational device or the comparator;

"Incidence of serious adverse events" is the proportion of subjects with serious adverse events using the investigational device or the comparator.

Mortality ratewithin 360±45 days

Deaths due to any cause are calculated.
