Interventions
Device: NeXsys Embolization System
Registration Number
NCT02507531
Lead Sponsor
Cerus Endovascular, Ltd
Brief Summary

Prospective, single center first-in-man study of use of device for intracranial aneurysm occlusion

Detailed Description

Prospective, single center first-in-man study of use of device for intracranial aneurysm occlusion. Target aneurysms are small unruptured aneurysms in the anterior and posterior circulation.

Recruitment & Eligibility

Status
TERMINATED
Sex
All
Target Recruitment
3
Inclusion Criteria
  • Age 18-80 years at screening
  • Unruptured saccular IA in the anterior or posterior circulation with dimensions consistent with Table 2
  • IA appears suitable for NeXsys device
  • Patient willing to comply with study requirements
  • Patient able to understand and sign a study-specific informed consent form
Exclusion Criteria
  • Ruptured IA
  • Any other IA that requires treatment in the next year
  • IA width >10 mm
  • IA neck >9 mm
  • IA has important flow from its base such that occluding the IA would cause stroke
  • Target IA contains any device (e.g., coils)
  • Inability to access the target IA with microcatheter
  • Any congenital or iatrogenic coagulopathy
  • Platelet count <50,000/microliter
  • Known allergy to platinum, nickel or titanium
  • Known allergy to contrast agents
  • Stenosis of the target IA's parent vessel >50%
  • Taking daily aspirin or other platelet inhibitor (clopidogrel or equivalent)
  • Taking any anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin)
  • Pregnant or planning pregnancy in the next 2 years
  • Other medical conditions that could increase the risk of neurovascular procedures (e.g., liver failure, cancer, etc.)
  • Participating in another study with investigational devices or drugs
